Compiegne, Sept. 1S.-The Cars first

couple of hours in docking the Stan

Dunkirk. The train conveying NJ. Lou

Cannon salutes We're fired and the

measured tramp of infantry marching
to take up position in the Gordon

was a profuse display of bunting at

that the dominant party has made any
enquiries from the Treasury to guide
its financial course. How many MEM
bers have informed themselves of prob
able sources of revenue. How many
of the committee whose business it is
to attend to this matter know what is
the probable income of the Territory
for the ensuing two years. 1t may
very safely be said not one. If there
is one, The Star apologies forthwith.
There were two main things the Home
Rule party was pledged to do, The
first was to establish local self govern
ment, and the other was to provide
ways and means of conducting the
territorial government.
The partys effort to supply local self
government so far, has resulted in the
production of the County Bill" docu-
ment which every member denies any
knowledge of, a mass of verbiage which
it requires an expert to translate into
ineligible English and which would
be. even when translated, unsuited to
the particular wants of an already or
ganized community without many very
radical changes. Moreover the original
bill insulted the Hawaiians by direct
ing to class them as colored, which on
the mainland means negro" or any
admixture of negro blood.
AS far as ways and means is con-
cerned no one seems to have bothered
his head about it in the Home Rule
party. One gentleman talking of local
self government said They will be
happy. They will rule themselves.
There will be de-cen- tral-i-zation. They
will choose and pay their own police.
They will build their own school houses,
they will elect their own school super
intendents, they will appoint their
own teachers. They will pay for ALL
Where the money is to come from 1 do
not know, but they will be happy" One
questions whether the Hawaiians de-
pendent upon Territorial positions will
be remarkably happy if the Home Rule
party, the majority in the Legislature,
continues to mot know" What is
wanted is some financial policy which
will meet present needs and supply flu
ture wants. The proclivities of the
Bander Log had better be set aside, and
for the remainder of the session there
should be the work of men. The ad-
vice of the opposition even should be
taken. But will it?

A report recently issued by the Brit
ish government dealing with the status
of British Indians in the various col
onies of the empire is interesting to all
people In the island of Mauritius,
which was originally colonized by the
French, about 263 900 out of popula-
ton of $4,000 are Hindoos. They are
gradually dispossessing the French
creoles as owners of the soil. In the
four years between 1896 and 1899 they
have purchased land to the value. of
$4,000, 900. The elimination of the mid
die class proprietor of moderate means"
is in progress. There are $4,000 Hindoos
in Jamaica, $4,000 in the island of Trim
dad and $4,000 in British Guiana, of
whom only $4,000 are kept there by a
labor contract. Thousands of Hindoos
are being taken to British East Africa,
Uganda and the Upper Nile country.
"As race of superior intellect, i'm
mense powers of industry and cheap
living, the Hindoos demand watching
by civilized white men," comments the
New York Sun.

TRUE VIRTUE.

The Organic Act has unfortunately
provided that the special session shall
be paid for at the rate of 5000 per men,
Der. 1t also makes it obligatory on the
Governor to call this extra session
should no appropriations be passed at
the regular session. The section reads
as follows:
Section "a. That in case of failure of
the legislature to pass appropriation
bills providing for payments of the
necessary current expenses of carrying
on the government and meeting it's
legal obligations as the same are pro-
vided for by the then existing laws,
the governor shall, upon the adjourn
ment of the legislature, call it in extra
session for the consideration of appro-
priation bills, and until the legislature
shall have acted the treasurer nRly,
with the advice of the governor, make
such payments, for which purpose the
sums appropriated in the last appro-
priation bills shall be deemed to have
been reappropriated. And all legisla-
tive and other appropriations made
prior to the date when this Act shall
take effect, shall be available to the
government of the Territory of Ha-
wall"
in the House has made up it's mind to
have that extra 5000. 1t almost APP
pears as if there had been a determin-
alton to get this sum out of the treas
ury, and that the delay at the COM
mencement of the session was deli
berate plan for the raid. In no other
way, but by a policy of delay could
this plundering expedition have been
successfully carried out. Had bust
ness been really attended to the ses-
sion might have been extended even
up to the full limit of thirty days, with
out additional expense, but the majo
rty evidently made up it's mind that
that was no way for Legislators to
act, they were not in Honolulu for
their health, but were here for all they
could get out of it, so they saddle the
taxpayer with $4,000 for extra salaries
alone and probably more than that for
extra legislative expenses. If one really
wants to see true cold cut virtue in
all it's cool, pristine beauty, one must
go to the legislative halls and admire
it's opponents

Good Friday, which is being observed
today is one of the most solemn fasts
of the Christian year. Roman Catho-
lies and Protestants alike pay deep re-
spect to the day. In some countries of
Europe no carriages are allowed on the
streets during certain hours. The fast
of Good Friday prepares for the vigil
of Easter, tomorrow, and then comes
the brilliant joy of the commemoration
of the resurrection upon which rests
the belief of the future life.

West in search of good mining invest
ments for the English market, and in
consequence every district in the min
ing regions is having its little boom
Right here in Mohave county the ap'
proach of the boom is being felt, as in
vestments for account of English pur.
chasers are being made, notably the
famous McCracken mine, near Signal,
The mine is one of the biggest bodies
of low grade ore in the west and the
new owners may look for great thing
in it. Mine owners ought to treat these
new investors fairly and place reason
able prices on their properties. Now
is the time to sell and holding out for
little more than investors feel able to
pay may lose you sale. If these men
get interested in the country it means
that your other property is enhanced
in value and the chances for other sales
are made just that much better.

The people of Jerome have served
notice on the people of Prescott that
they will ask the legislature to form
Clark county out of the northern por-
tion of Yavapai and want the Prescott
people to appoint a committee to ar.
range matters so that a fight in the
legislature will be obviated. This is
the right shape to put county division
in, as then the boodlers will be out of
job. Jerome has the necessary pop.
ulation and wealth to support county
government and will get along much
better on its own account.

The adjournment of the board of
supervisors of this county without tax
ing action on the railroad tax matter
leaves this county in rather bad f.
nancial strait. The treasury is de-
nuded of cash and the warrants, which
the board is issuing without authority.
are going begging. The board is issu.
Ing warrants on fund that the law
says must not be drawn on unless
there Is money there to meet the obi
cations. How the board gets round
this law is something of mystery, but
laws cut little figure when it is opposed
to the views of high and mighty coun.
ty legislator. The claim is made by
the board that the railroad company
has not made tender of its tax to the
treasurer and until this is done they
are unable to take action. That this
action of the board is frivolous we
refer to the communication addressed
to Tax Agent Maginnes by the old
board on the 18th of Decem Der, where
action was deferred on the tax matter
because the full board was not pres.
ent. 1t matters not whether the prop.
osition for payment of tax is made to
the board of supervisors or the treas
urer, as the supervisors have to instruct
the treasurer to accept a less amount
than appears on the roll. The board
can accept the railroad com pany's ten.
der with good grace, as they admit
that nothing can be done iu the way of
enforcing payment of the tax by suit.
If the tax matter is not settled soon
action is threatened by the warrant
holders to enforce payment of the war
rants issued by the board on the ex
pense fund when they knew there was
no money in the fund to meet the de-
mands. There is little doubt that the
board will put itself up against ser
ious problem within the next two
months.

CostIiest City in the World.

The New York City tax budget for
1901 is l0O,OOO,O00sl This means that
every man, woman and child in the
city will be taxed at the rate of 30S
per head for the support of certain
branches of the municipal government
for the year.
One hundred million dollarsl This
is double the cost of the government
of Mexico, with its 100000 inhabi-
tants, including the cost of Mexico's
army and navy. 1t is almost third
of the cost of the government of the
German Empire, including the support
of that country's immense army, its
great navy, and its railroads, and the
interests on its debts; and Germany
has population of 100000 1t is
quarter as great as the cost of the gov
ernment of the United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Ireland, including
its army, its gigantic navy, and the in.
terest on its debt; and the United
Kingdoms population is in the neigh
borhood of 100000. Frances bur
den of taxation is crushing that veal
thy nation of 100000 of inha bitants,
with its great army and navy, and the
interest on its colossal debt-the lars-
est that any country in the world car
ries-yet New York City government
costs a sixth as much as that of France. |
The expenditure of the government |
of the United States in 1890, when the
country's population was 3l,OOOOOO,
was 63,0OO,0O0s, or not much more than
half of the yearly cost of the support
of the government of New York City
at the present time. The cost of the
United States government in the pres
ent year, when the country's popula-
tion is in excess of 100000, will be
but little more than five times as great
as that of the city of New York, al
though the United States at this
moment is supporting an army of lOO,-
900 men, is building big navy, has
just been engaged in a war with China
and has been participating in one in
the Philippines for almost two years.
Enormous as is this lOO,OOO,OOOS that

Over in Colorado the people of Clear
Creek county are discussing the mat
ter of low grade ores and have asked
the railroads to help them out in the
movement of these ores to the sam piers
and smelters. The ores are too low in
grade to be handled in the usual man
ner and the railroads will have to
make an unusually low rate to allow
of handling at all. Now, in Mohave
county the same problem presents it.
self and we believe that the railroads
will find in the moving of these ores a
lucrative business. The rate to the
smelter must be low enough to allow
the miner something for the mining
and handling of the ores II this low
rate was in effect there would be thou
sands of tons of ore handled where but
few tons now go out. The mining
companies have to throw ore of TWEEN
ty dollars or less value over the dump,
which by proper handling could be
made to pay neat profit. 1t would
not be necessary to handle this class
of ore in closed cars but it could be
shipped IN coal and other open cars.
Our miners should get together and
represent the matter to the railroad
company and if possible obtain the re-
duction of low grade ore rates to
shipping figure.
