County Act Trainers
Hear Tesla And
Reform the Old Law

/ Chapter 4, county seats, was then
taken up and but one amendment made
Section IL, in the old Act. provided
that
whenever there shall be presented
to the Board of Supervisors a petition
, signed by the qualified electors of a
County, In number equal to a majority
of the votes cast at the last preceding
general election. praying for the 70.
moval Of the County Seat Of the County
the. Board shall by due proclamation
submit the question Of such removal
OF the County Seat, at the next general
election to the qualified electors of such
County. The election shall be conduct
ed and the returns canvassed in all re
spects as provided by law for the con-
duct of general elections and canvas
sing the returns thereof"
The words thirty per cent" were
substituted for the words "a majority"
Chairman Cooper, after the reading
of the section quoted. said il seemed
to be tremendous proposition when
a matter could not be submitted TO the
people without. practically the assur-
ance beforehand that It would be
passed. Commissioner Stewart re-
marked that the section as originally
worded was certainly prohibitive. Com
missioner Watson cautioned the COM
mission against the possibility, on the
Island OF Maui, for example, Of COR
slant changing Of the county seat II
the method Of obtaining such a result
were made too easy. why said he,
there would doubtless be a regular
see-saw OF the county seat between La
taina and Waikiki II any number less
than majority of the votes cast at the
last election was sufficient, by petition,
to bring on an election to settle the To-
cation OF the county seat"
Commissioner Crabbe suggested that
thirty per cent was fair proportion,
Commissioner Stewart having advised
that a per centage be specified.
Finishing with Chapter 4. the Com
mission discussed the titles" into
which the old Act was divided. decid-
ing that they had no place in the Act
and cutting them out.

MINING DIVIDENDS.

The pleasing Information comes
from Goldfeld that the Combination
mine has paid its first dividend of
$40, 600, representing ten per cent OF
its capitalization, and the condition
of the mine and the treasury is such
that there is every probability that
a similar dividend will be paid quar-
terly hereafter. This is an excellent
record for the pioneer mine Of the
camp which made its first shipment
lust a year ago. and only started
work in October, 1903. There have,
however, been many other dividends
distributed By leasers Of which We
know nothing. The syndicate own.
ing the Zinn lease have divided $40.
900, representing the full capita
subscribed, with money in hand ant
ore in sight to make certain Of future
dividends. This was a leasing syndi
cate and other parties OF lessees hav'
distributed some very large profits
notably the other lessees on tn
January, Jumbo, Florence and othe
properties. This is splendid recor'
for a camp where the second mine t
produce has only been working 70
ten months and where now over
dozen mines are putting out hig
grade shipping ore.

An Indian Killed.

A well known Iueiau called Captain

The Federal statutes are most
stringent with REGARD to the sale Of
whiskey to Indians and the penalty
for SO doing is rightly very severe,
yet it is plain to every man that the
law is daily broken in this camp. AS
one result an Indian has been killed
this week and drunken fights among
them are not uncommon. While
many may believe that an Indian is
no good until he is dead, the taking
OF human life is always to be re.
gretted and where caused by the
fragrant breach Of the laws it IS the
duty of the authorities to see thai
these laws are enforced. 1t cannot
be difficult to discover those who sci
the whiskey and they should be pun
ished to the utmost limit of the law
Some day a drunken Indian may xii
an ~inoffensive white man, but in any
case this illegal sale of whiskey mus
be stopped at once.
