COURT SPLITS
THE DIFFERENCE
BY AN OLD FASHIONED METHOD
THE SUPREME COURT REACHES
. A CONCLUSION.

BY the good old practice commonly
known as splitting the difference" the
Supreme Court of Hawaii arrived at
a conclusion on the assessment of lot
on the southeasterly side of KewaIO
street, Honolulu, owned by A. Perry.
The lot, which has a frontage of 100
feet by depth of 27O feet was return
ed by the owner as worth $4,000. The
tax assessor raised this to $4,000 and his
judgment was confirmed by the tax
appeal court. An appeal was carried
to the Supreme Court and that body
fixed $500 as the lots value, in de-
cision handed down this morning.

NUUANU WATER
PIPE BREAKS
\ THREATENED FLOOD WAS
AVERTED BY PROMPT ACTION
BY PUBLIC WORKS OFFICIALS.

BY the bursting of twelve-inch pipe
in the Nuuanu valley last evening the
lower part of Nuuanu street was
threatened with a flood for a little
while, but the break was fortunately
repaired before any damage was done.
The break occurred about o'clock near
the bridge at the point where the Pa
cific Heights road diverges. The Public
Works Department had exposed the
pipe and had lacked it up ready to
make the connection with the new pipe
today. 1t is supposed that the pipe
buckled under its own weight and the
break resulted. superintendent Hollo-
way luckily happened to pass along a
minute or two after the leak occurred.
He sent after his men at once and in
side of an hour the flow was shut off.

CLUDE INTOXICATING LIQUORS BEVERAGEs-A Law
APPLIED OFFENDERS BIT BE FINED $500 AND GO

A local option bill for possible sub
mission at the coming session of the
Legislature has been prepared by SEN
ator Dickey and submitted to Governor
Carter for the purpose of getting his
views on it.
1t will be remembered that the Sem
ator introduced a local option bill at
the last sitting. 1t failed in the Senate
by one vote and a similar bill i'm the
House did not reach Il second reading.
In the draft bill of the Senator's now
prepared, /. is provided that each pre-
cinct shall have the right to local Op-
tion in the matter of the sale of intoX-
icating liquor as a beverage. Should
it become law, whenever thirty per
cent of the voters of any precinct or of
any two or more adjoining precincts,
send a petition to the governor he
shall cause a ballot to be taken within
forty days on the question of whether
or not intoxicating liquor shall be sold
within the precinct or precincts.
Should the majority decide against the
sale, such sale must at once be pro-
hibited by proclamation and any person
then selling or even giving away liquor
shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and

"A call has been issued for a special
meeting of the Eighth Precinct Repub-
Hcan Club of the Fourth District to
consider precinct rules and take up
the matter of the rule proposed i'm the
second precinct, to prohibit government
officials from holding positions on the
various party committees. The call is
being circulated by c. L. Beal, who is
a supporter of the idea that holders of
government positions should not be on
the party committees.
"The sentiment of the community as
far as 1 have found it is in favor of
the proposed rule" said Beal today
Though discussion of the rule is not
the only purpose of our meeting. No
precinct club rules have ever been
adopted and it is time we formed such
rules. This is one of the stated pur-
poses of the meeting.
GAS for the question of officials act
ing as members of the party commit
tees that is a question that arose dur
ing the campaign. I resigned from
the Territorial committee when L found
that it was practically shut out of
control. The idea seemed to be to
leave all to the executive committee

government officials. There were many
who supported the ticket while the
campaign was on who were neverthe-
less strongly opposed to having such
committees as those which were in
charge.
"Now that the campaign is over it
is the proper time to settle the matter
As far as 1 have been able to sound
public sentiment there is a practically
unanimous feeling that members of
the administration should not act on
the party committees. I have not
found anyone opposed to the idea of
excluding them. The party commit
tees are supposed to be the mediums
through which the people express their
will. There is no other way. 1t seems
to me that the committees should re-
main Independent of the administration.
There is no attack upon the present
administration involved i'm the prOpos-
tion of passing the rule suggested. 1t
is a matter of party policy for Repub-
licans to decide. 1t is a question that
has arisen and is being much discussed
and l believe there is general sentiment
i'm favor of adopting the rule"

not less than sixty days, or both fine

The suggested bill contains every de-
tail for the taking of the vote, which
shall be of the regularly registered
voters, and provides that i'm the case of
any Precinct deciding one way or the
other, it shall not be possible to hold
another ballotting for at least two
years.
THAT might possibly do for the out
lying districts but l do not think it
would suit in places like Honolulu"
said Governor Carter this morning
after he had read the bill through. IF
the vote were taken by Precincts there
might be all SORTS of complications.
One occurs to me at once. Take a Pre-
cinct where there IS large residence
section of the better class and also a
large tenement section The ballot
there might result in the swamping of
the residence section by the others and
saloons would be forced on people who
would not want them. The suggestion

by the trust at a price based on the
market quotation on the day of arrival.
Sugar arriving at San Francisco is to
be bought by the trust at a price three
eights of a cent below the New York
quotation on the day of arrival. The
contract provides the proportion of the
crop which shall be sent to the Atlantic
seaboard and the proportion that shall
be sent to San Francisco. There are
other provisions some inserted for the
protection of the planters and some to
enable the trust to regulate in some de-
gree the arrival of the crop, for it's con-
venience in refining.
1t is said the new contract is more
favorable to the planters than the one
now in force. These concessions to the
planters may be either in the basis OF
the price to be received, or in the con-
ditions of shipment and destination to
which the sugar is shipped, or both.

SHOOTS FRIEND DURING
QUARREL OVER A WOMAN

Joseph Ford, secretary of the Glass
Blowers Union, was shot in the head
and seriously wounded by George
Pearson in a Sixth street lodging
house early yesterday morning. The
men are supposed to have quarreled
over Cora Evans, a woman of the
place. While trying to escape, Pear
son jumped from a window and was
badly injured. Both men were taken
to the Emergency Hospital
According to Ford's story, he, in
company with Pearson and sailor,
entered the womans room. All were
under the influence of liquor. The
sailor was sent to purchase whisky
and while he was gone Ford says
Pearson drew a pistol and deliberately
shot him. Pearson then jumped from
a window to a shed and was badly
bruised. He was captured by Police
man McEntee. The Evans woman
was arrested. The sailor escaped.
