ungrateful for the opportunity which
has been given it to show how near to

and to arouse the popular conscience
to meet it.
AS to the part taken by Governor
Carter in this matter it is but justice
to him to say that he did not knowing
ly give the press any knowledge of
General MacArthur's views; that in all
likelihood he had not yet read the
document or. if he had, did not uecog-
nize it as part of the written matter

er. Our view of the affair is that he
thought the manuscript was a mere
plea for a new armory and let it go at
that. If publication has embarrassed
him, that is a thing to deplore; but il
it serves to bring on an understanding
with Germany that will save these isl
ands from becoming, one day. the focal
point of a Pacific war, he will have
done his countrymen service which
he nor they will ever have occasion
to regret.

TAXPAYER WOULD
STOP A LEAK

Editor Advertiser: Being a taxpayer
and as such in favor of an economic
administration, more SO as our treas
ury is not in a too hourishing eondi-
ton and necessary public, improve
ments are retarded on all sides by
the lack of funds, I consider it fair
and just that delinquent taxpayers
should be made to pay their taxes, and
no partiality or Ieniency shown to any
one, except in stringent cases for good
and sufficient reasons, and thus made
to contribute their pro rata to the sus-
tenance of the government.
These are evidently the views of our
tax collector. judging from the number
of suits daily filed in our courts against
delinquents, chronic and otherwise, a
proceeding which meets the full APP
prevail of the people, for the money is
needed and should be collected, but on
the best and cheapest plan, so as to
make the yield as large as possible.
If this be done there can be no kick
from anyone, but / doubt that such is
the case, if the attorney representing
the government receives 5 per cent
commission on all moneys collected by
him, as l am creditably informed, and
as the delinquent taxes are said to
amount to 100000 or even more it will
readily be seen that the attorney
draws a fee of about $4,000 to $4,000 for
about one OF two months services, a
good enough pay for half dozen law
yers in these hard times.
It may be argued that not all judg-
| ments will realize, but as taxes con-
stitute preferred claim they must be
paid if the person sued has anything
| at all to pay with, and we all know
| that taxes, as a rule, are levied on
values only.
The Governments attorney in this
matter must either rank far above the
| average in the profession, or have a
pull with the government, unknown to
the general public, to be entitled tc
| such a snap, for I warrant that fol-
one-half of his remunera ton the best
| lawyer in the Territory will take the
job and make good money out of it.
! If these matters fall to the duties of
| the Attorney General, as they undoubt-
! edly do, and he is too busy to give
them the necessary attention, why not
employ extra Office help, for it surely
does not require an expert lawyer to
! fill out summon-blanks and as taxes
justly owing cannot be disputed al
this date, when they are delinquent
almost any attorney with the slightest
legal knowledge, can represent the
Government and thus save the Terri
tory several thousand dollars in at
torney fees.
1t is not in harmony with justice
for the Attorney Generals or any 9TH
er department of our government to
enrich individuals on the taxes of the
people, who. in order to pay, in some
Instances have to borrow money to
avoid being sold out of house and
home.

THE ARMoRY SITE
1.-THE ohiclal and Commercial Recort

tIhe Omclai ana commercial Record.
The best possible site for the Ma
tional Guard Armory is right where
It is now located. The armory was To-
Gated there long before annexation, and
has been there ever since. The only
possible reason for removing it there
from is that the lot on which it is
located was, just prior to the passage
of the Organic Act, reserved by Presi-
dent Mckinley as a War Department
Reservation. This was done at the
suggestion of the officer in charge at
Honolulu, without the knowledge or
approval of the government or people
at Honolulu.
This action should never have been
taken.
The site in question was ostensibly
reserved for quartermasters purposes.
It is entirely unsuited therefor It is
nearly half a mile from the wharves
and there were other locations reserv-
ed near the wharf which were much
better for this use.
/ The buildings on the Armory site
were built and paid for by the people
of the Territory.
They constitute the sole and only ac-
eommodations for the local militia.
1t is only through the sufferance of
the successive army commanders sta
toned at Honolulu that the National
Guard of Hawaii has not been turned
into the street. 1t has repeatedly been
intimated that such course might be
taken. This position has been most
humiliating and irritating to the Ma
tional Guard.
The military authorities of the Unit
ed States are extremely DESTROYS that
a strong militia force shall be main
tanned at Honolulu, for national pur-
poses.
Nothing better calculated to dis
courage the local militia can be
imagined than the confiscation of their
armory which was done without their
consent and without any necessity to
warrant it.
The attempt now being made by
Governor Carter to secure the return
| of the Armory site is most praise
worthy. 1t will be not only an act of
justice. but one more calculated than

THE MACARTHUR AFFAIR.

Owing to conflicting rumors it is due
the public to say that the notes of
Colonel Jones's interview with Major
General Macarthur came legitimately
.5nto the hands of this paper. They
were embraced in a written argument
for an armory as a means of building
up the Hawaiian National Guard and
were handed by the Governor to Mr..
Logan, the court and department re-
porter of the Advertiser, on the occa-
sion of Mr.. Logan's daily call at the
Executive offices. Mr.. Logan asked
permission to take them to the editorial
ONCE for copying but Governor Carter
declined to let them go saying that Mr..
Logan might take from them what
ne desired Since the publication of
these notes the Governor informs the
Advertiser that he gave the manuscript
to the reporter that he might take
something from it about armories.
though it appears that he did not
specifically request Mr.: Logan to take
nothing else nor did he mention the
need or propriety of leaving out of
print any portions of the document in
hand. Mr.. Logan found the whole pa
per Interesting and all of 1t bearing
upon the need of putting the National
Guard on an efficient basis; and he
chose such parts of the manuscript as,
with his trained newspaper instinct, he
knew to be most important and inter
esting to the public whom it is the Adj
yertiser's business to serve. The con-
spicuous result has been to apprise the
people of the United States of most
important military conclusion which
win, we profoundly hope, so influence
Congress as to lead to a better under
standing with Germany and the estab-
lishment of closer relations with that
great power If, as General Macarthur
saws. the Monroe doctrine is likely to
visit the American people with the
pains and penalties of a gigantic war,
1t is time for the people to consider
whether the doctrine is worth what it
may cost In blood and gold. Anything
that will arouse them to the danger
now prophesied is public service; and
for these reasons the Advertiser Is not
