LAW IS QUOTED ON
TAKING OF PROXIES

There was considerable discussion
among business men yesterday as TO
the legality of Cecil Browns ruling
in the matter of the proxies held by
Colonel George Macfarlane at the
meeting of the stockholders of the
First National Bank of Hawaii on
Tuesday.
The subject is one of great impor-
lance to all concerned in business
corporations, as plantation companies
and other corporations have been
holding meetings right along for the
past few months and accepting un-
stamped proxies.
The action of Cecil Brown in turn
ing down Colonel Macfarlane's prox-
les, therefore. caused many people to
look up the law in the matter and ask
questions concerning the war rev.
enue tax.
Collector Roy II. Chamberlain. OF

kindly quoted the law for the benefit

MINORITY OF STOCK
CAN DO BUSINESS

Another question which is deeply
interesting the bushes men of Homo
lulu is whether a minority of the
stockholders of bank can transact
business. This point is fully covered
in the following extract from letter
of instructions to bank cashiers from
the Comptroller of the Currency Will
liam B. Ridgely, dated Washington.
D. c., November %. 1901:
1T is unnecessary under the Ma
tional Bank Act. to have majority
Of the stock represented at the an
nual meeting, as any number of
shareholders may organize and elect
directors. Notice need not be given
of the meeting. unless provided for
by the bylaws. or business is to be
transacted that requires a specific
stock vote. such as the amendment Of
the articles of association; in which
event, thirty days notice in writing
or by publication in local newspaper
should be given shareholders, if the
articles do not provide 10 the con-
trary.
q If the shareholders meet on the
day named in the articles for the an
nual meeting. but do not elect direc-
tors. they may adjourn the meeting
from day to day Exclusive of Sun
days or legal holidays without no.

Does this exhibit suggest tax-dodging?
In comparing the assessed valuation of
Washington with that of the commercial
and manufacturing cities like Cleveland.
Chicago, Milwaukee. New Orleans and De-
troit, for instance. It Is to be remembered
that Washington lacks the millions of tax
able property which are found In the Amer

scrapers, in the solid blocks OF business
establishments and in the warehouses and
factories Washington's greatest and al
most only conspicuous and notable factories
are the government workshops, such as the
bureau Of engraving and printing and the
government printing Office. Washington's
greatest business establishments are the
government departments. with their thou
sands Of employees. These factories and
these business establishments cut no figure
in Washington's assessed valuation, for
they are within the exempted half Of the
capital. which belongs to the nation.
Washington's population in 1880 was less
than that Of any of the cities above emu
merated; less than one-hfth as large as
that Of Chicago. It's assessed half lacked

National Capital Improvement,

From the Chicago Tribune.
1t is not to be inferred that the improve
ment Is to be effected at once. II the plans
are approved by Congress and the financing
Is assured it will still take many years be-
fore the work will be finished. There is
much to be said In its favor. Since the
plan was first proposed it has been accepted
In every part of the country without sin
gle objecting voice. The people evidently
desire that their capital shall be one Of
the finest II not the finest, in the world.
Again, it will not call for an Immediate
large appropriation of money. but when an
appropriation is made for any specific pur-
pose that purpose will be in accordance
with q definite system. There viii be no
more haphazard work such as there has
been In the past. and, last, there is no city
In the world that lends itself more readily
to such a system. It is most bountifrliy
supplied with parks and open spaces which
can be connected by single driveway 1t
Is free from heavy teaming and the smoke
OF factories 1t can be kept clean. There
is no reason why in the future Washington
should not be one Of the most beautiful
cities In the world. o.,
