MAKE BEAUTY SPOTS
OF NEGLECTED LOTS

Acting Governor A. L. c. Atkinson is
also acting as City improvement Asso-
citation at present in a way that may
shortly bring about great change for
the better in the appearances of some
conspicuous localities in Honolulu.
Whether the scheme he has taken in
hand succeeds or not to the full extent
desired, the attempt in itself points the
way for action on the part of public
spirited citizens toward improving the
looks of different parts of the city and
suburbs.
The Acting Governor is personally adj
dressing the Trustees of the B. P. Bish-
op Estate TO offer them cooperation of
the Government in transforming some
of their centrally located areas of un-
land into green lawns. There
are three plots in view for the process.
One is the large rectangular space oppo-
site the Alexander Young Building,
which is the choice of Honolulu for
Federal building site if il can be OBJ
tanned on favorable terms. Lately the
Trustees have had this ground cleared
of rubbish. graded and curbed, besides
guarding it with a low fence along its
three street borders. Although less I'M
slightly than before these fixings, the
place is still barren and forbidding in
aspect. Mr.. Atkinson proposes to give
the services of a few prison TRUSTEES for
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1904-08-05

, cultivating and tending grass upon the
area. With spare material on and. the
Government would also lay on free wa
ter.
Similar assistance is rendered. in the
second case, to the Bishop Estate for
identifying the gore at King, Richards
and Merchant streets. which is covered
with a wild jungle of bushes and weeds.
This is a conspicuous eyesore, lying be-
tween the two direct routes from the
business section to the Territorial public
buildings, besides being in the imme-
date outlook from the Capitol park.
The third place in the Acting Gov
ernor's scheme is the tract at Nuuanu
avenue and Pauoa road, which Henry
E. Cooper while in office tried to obtain
by exchange for public park
Mr.. Atkinson considers that the i'm
provement of the open spaces mention
ed would cost the Government prac-
tically nothing through the means he
proposes-just a few yards of old wa
ter pipe and the labor of perhaps half
a dozen prisoners. With the lots grass
ed over, seats might be placed thereon
where the people might rest and occa-
sionaily hear the band play. At present
there is no station for public band con-
certs up Nuuanu valley, though many
of the oldest families Of Honolulu have
their honsSteads there. Governor Car
ter himself is a Nuuanu boy and so is
the Secretary of the Territory now

TAXING THE
CABLE ENDS
interesting Argument In
Tax Appeal
Case.

International law and the three-mile
limit problem that has vexed august ar
bitration tribunals were aired in the ap-
peal of the Commercial Pacific Cable
Co from an assessment of $4,000 on
its local plant before the Tax Appeal
Court yesterday. The assessment in
cludes the San Francisco and Manila cable
ends for three miles to sea. Theo. F.
Lansing and J. R. Gait constituted the
court.
Sidney NJ. Ballou appeared as counsel
for the appellant
He argued that the Territory had no
jurisdiction beyond low water mark,
quoting an English decision holding that
the county did not exercise authority
beyond its land confines The three-mile
sea border was an international subject,
Mr.. Ballou argued and then simply as
matter of sovereignty and not of own
ership. Further he stated that dozens
of cables landed on the United States
mainland, yet it could not be shown
where one of them was taxed under the
sea. Counsel argued that as the ques-
ton was now for the first time raised,
the burden of proof was on the Govern
ment to show that the Territory had
jurisdiction three miles to sea.
Arthur A. Wilder, replying for the
assessor. commended that the question was
go ~ co,,,r,oo caoca op5 ,,O+ to he ia
cided upon technicalities. Perhaps the
thought of taxing cables had not occur
red elsewhere. In some cases probably
the tax authority taxed the property of
the company in its shares of capital
stock Anyway, each state had its own
taxation laws and one could not be
rule for another nor for Hawaii.
1t was absurd, Mr.. Wilder argued, to
say that the Territory had no jurisdic
ton below low water mark. In that
event, house boat or yacht lying in
the stream was not taxable. What about
valuable porperty in and upon wharves
beyond low tide mark? If Mr.. Ballou
was correct in his law, the speaker said
he might put $1,000 in his pocket on
January I and defy assessment of it by
going out in boat.
Mr. Wilder mentioned the case of the
Gillian vessel lying off Pearl harbor a
few months ago when a shooting occur
red on board. It was the Territory's po-
lice that took jurisdiction of the matter
and arrested the shooter. If the Terri
tory did not have jurisdiction for three
miles from shore, the case would have
been one of admiralty for the United
States authorities to handle Moreover,
counsel pointed out, the Supreme Court
under the monarchy decided the three
mile jurisdiction under law re-enacted
by implication in the Organic Act This
was in a case where the cargo of sugar
in vessel at Hilo was claimed exempt
because it has cleared at the custom
house before the Ist day of July at that
time the day as of which assessments
were made The court decided that the
clearance did not exempt the cargo. as
the vessel was still inside of the three
mile limit.
The case was submitted
