A communication in another column
with regard to the still too prevalent
practice Of profanity is NOT untimely. In
diligence in profanity is generally recog
nized nowadays as an evidence that the
one who uses 1t is not gentleman,
for whatever may be his own notions with
regard to the improperly of profane Lam
guage the true gentleman is bound to re-
spect the feelings and sensibilities of 9TH
er people within hearing. And yet men
who claim to be gentlemen very often
neglect this simple rule. In the lavatory
Of one OF the Minneapolis clubs a day or
two ago was heard a volley Of profanity
which must have lowered the perpetrator
OF this offense very much in the estina-
ton Of all those who heard him and
should have been sufficient to have ac-
complished his expulsion from the club.

Chicago's Queer Judges.

Ch1cago produces some queer judges.
Some of them have been described by a
Chicago paper rs incorrigible idlers, some
as lacking in legal capacity, some as in
valids and some as speaking tubes for
political bosses. Some. if we are to judge
from newspaper reports of their conduct
on the bench, are strangely lacking in
comprehension of the proper conduct OF
magistrates, and are directly contributing
to the encouragement Of contempt for the
law.
The other day one of them rebuked a
husband, who had brought an erring wife
into court for not taking the law into his
own hands. This notable Judge praised
the Kentucky idea Of c11ivalry, which ap-'
peared to him to consist of killing the
destroyer Of a home, and told. the injured
husband that he ought to have killed his
'Wlfe's lover. A fine exhortation to law
and order. that! 1t is not necessary toSde-
duce the probable results of the every day
application of the Kentucky idea#of chiv-
airy. We have 1t in the frequent reports
Of feuds and assassinations In that state.
It will not do to say that the punishment
Of a certain crime shall rest with the i'm.
jured person., while society is to punish
fall others. If the Individual does not sur
he really surrenders none. In kentucky
they kill men for almost any alleged
offense, from a difference in politics to
chicken stealing. The Kentucky idea OF
chivalry blossoms out in such fine flower
as cowardly assassination from the rear
or from ambuscade as in the killing Of
Goebel and the dastardly murder of Mar
cum the other day.
In parts of Kentucky there is neither
public law nor order. The law lis in
diyidual law, and what order there is
comes from the fear of death by assassina-
ton. From this anarchy come such fruits
as the determination Of families by cruel
and sneaking murder, frequent lynchings,
contempt TOR law and the powerlessness of
officers. And with the knowledge of such
things before him, this Chicago Judge sits
on the bench and advises a law-abiding
man to go out and kill. Justice is the
states; or there is pone

IS THERE
FORGERY?
Breckons Looking
Into Fire
Claims.

A dozen or more fire claims have
been referred to District Attorney
Breckons by Treasury Agent McLen-
nan for Investigation. In all OF these
| claims two parties have made a de-
mand upon the First National Bank.
one man holding an assignment of the
original, which in many cases the
claimant says had been stolen or he
had lost. What appears like a case
of forgery of the assignment will also
be looked into by Mr.. Breckons.
While none of these claims are for
very large amounts. there appears to
be an indication Of crooked work some
where. The matter was usually brought
to the attention of Treasury Agent Nc
Lehman through the receipt by the
First National Bank of a protest
against the payment OF certain claims.
In some instances it was charged that
the fire claims certificate had been
lost, and in others that 1t had been
stolen. The First National Bank re-
fused to pay the claim at all, either
to the party who held the alleged as
signment or to the man who said he
was the original claimant.
Most of the claimants over whom
this dispute has arisen are Chinese,
though there are two natives in the
bunch of twelve. If the story of the
protestants Is to be believed and the
claims have been lost or stolen, then
at least there must have been forgery
of the assignment by the holder of the
claim was presented in each instance.
That this is not true in some instances
Is shown by the fact that one of the
local banks is the holder of the claim
which is disputed by a Chinese as
having been lost or stolen" though it
may be possible that the banking in
stitution was an innocent purchaser.
In some instances also the claim may
have been disposed of at a big dis
count. and the claimants now that ne
sees the money in sight is trying to
get his claim back.
United States Attorney Breckons Is |
making a rigid investigation of the
disputed claims and is summoning the
rival claimants with a view to ascer-
the real facts in connection |
with the cases.
There still is a steady stream of call |
ers at the First National Bank from
the opening in the morning until the
close in the evening, and the million
dollar pile is fast diminishing under
their onslaughts. Altogether at the
hour of closing business yesterday the
bank had paid out s2s1,O 900 which is
more than one-fourth of the total |

NEED MAKE
NO RETURN
OahuCoIIege Held
to Be Exempt
From Tax.

Three opinions are filed by the three
Justices of the Supreme Court in q de
cision sustaining the tax courts assess
ment of property on Miller street be
longing to Oahu College. The court II
an opinion by Judge Galbraith hold.
that the college is entitled to exemption
even though not claimed in the tax re-
turn. Judge Perry concurs and Chie
Justice Frear dissents.
The syllabus is as follows:
1T is not necessary to make return
for purposes of taxation of property
which, by virtue of the provisions of
Section 1886, c. L., is not subject to tax
alton, nor to claim in the tax return
that such property is exempt.
"A failure to make return and claim
of the exemption to the assessor Is not
a waiver of the right to demand the
benefit Of the statute.
1.-THE valuation of $4,000 placed on
the property by Tax Appeal Court is
affirmed"
The college trustees claimed exemp-
ton on part Of the Miller street prop
erty used for school purposes, which
the assessor held was waived by fail
ure to put the exemption in the tax re-
turn.
Judge Galbraith says in his opinion
that school property is exempt and to
hold that there can be any waiver
would be an act of legislation pure
and simple and is beyond the rightful
power and duty of the court"
otherwise every property owner
would have to make a return whether
owning less than $500 or not. The court
continues:
Where property is exempt, it is not
subject to taxation and there is no rea-
son for requiring it to be returned and
valued.
This Interpretation has the support
OF the construction of the officers whose
duty it was to administer the law and
usage under it, whatever weight such
and usage may be entitled
to.
I'VE understand that it has not been
the practice to require the owners of
exempt property, under Section 1856, to
return the same; that no return has
been required of the property belong
ing to the Territorial Government or
the Queens Hospital or the Board of
or churches and colleges of
property in actual use for religious or
purposes"
Judge Perry in concurring says that
only property Subject to taxation"
must be returned. He thinks also that
the two acres assessed at $25, 900 should
not be taxed but says the college did
not appeal from this valuation.
Chief Justice Frear holds that the
property must be taxed because no ex-
had been claimed. He says:
There is difference between property
that cannot be taxed under any cir
and property that is or
dinarily taxable under the law, but
which for some especial reason is ex-
empt in particular case. In the one
case the property is not subject to tax
alton at all; in the other case, 1t may
be taxed unless the party entitled to
the exemption claims his special privi-
ege and shows that he comes within
The exception to the general rule"
The Chief Justice says also that the
statute is uncertain and inconsistent
in many respects so that it is hard to
learn just what the legislature real
y intended.
