Like most men who have given atten-
ton to the subject Inspector Chamber
| lain of the Internal Revenue sees the
necessity of having a properly conduct
ed pawn-shOp in city of the kind which
Honolulu is, but he deprecates the un-
licensed methods which are followed, by
means of which the impecunious are
fieeced hand over fist and an eXorbitant
rate Of interest is dragged out of them,
keeping them constantly poor, and con-
stantly working out a dead horse.
As far as the Island revenue e CON
cerned the great difficulty is to get
evidence. Young men, and even young
women who get into the clutches of
these money lending sharks, will not
give evidence or help to bring a case.
They suffer in silence. 1t is the same
case with the Territorial officials. Evil
dence can not be obtained against the
sharks. In Great Britain it took years
of fearless work on the part of Labou-
chere in his paper Truth, before much
of the rascality in the money lending
profession could be shown up and the
chleI Offenders De driven from their
haunts' But then Labouchere was and
~ an immensely wealthy man, and
could aiiorq TO stand libel suits.
The way to meet the difficulty. ac-
