1T Is my opinion that If the Japa-

Will hand Manchuria back to China
and then ask her to pay her proper
ton of the war expenses. The Japa-
nese will probably retain Port Arthur
If it can be made impregnabe and the
lower portion of the Liaotong penin-
sula. The japanese consider that the
occupation of Port Arthur by the Rus
slams robbed them of the fruits of their
victory in the Chino-Japanese war and
1t is a matter of pride with them to
capture 1t. There is no question that
If they sat down and commenced a
regular seige they could starve the 90
90 Russians inside into surrender with
out the loss of single man. Instead
of this they are undoubtedly LOSING
thousands of men but it is a point of
pride with them to take the place by
sheer force.
THE Japanese are keeping their
losses at Port Arthur very quiet. The
papers in Japan, both English and
japanese are forbidden to publish any
thing about the movements around
Port Arthur. But slaughter was ex-
pected. The japanese are the bravest
people In the world in this respect
that they are not afraid to die. Every

the idea that he Will never return

Mr.. Clough says that the reason that
the Korea escaped capture was be-
cause the Russian squadron had all

UNDER FIRE IN HONOLULU
Attorney General Moving Against Foreign Cor.
porations Doing Business Without License.
Many Injunction Suits.

An attack all along the line is being
made by the Attorney Generals Depart
ment upon foreign corporations that
have not paid their license tax for doing
business in this Territory. One large
agency has already capituated and an
other one is ready to do so at the eN-
pected word from headquarters.
The Pacific Hardware and Steel Co.,
that defeated the equity proceedings be-
fore Judge Gear to enjoin it from doing
business in the Territory. is to be sued
at law for the amount of the tax &C
counted as due by it to the Treasury.
Civil actions for the tax will be
brought against Castle & Cooke, Ltd,
and c. Brewer & Co., Ltd, as agents
for the Standard Oil Co. At the rate
of one fourth of mill on every dollar
OF authorized capital, the annual tax
claim against Rockefeller's octopus
will be something considerable. The
capitalization of the Standard Oil Co.,
common stock, is given in the American
Almanac for 1904 as So7, 100000, which,
il larger amount is not authorized.
would make the Territorial license tax
for one year SEA .375.
Other corporations listed as intended
defendants in civil suits for recovery
OF the tax are the Union Oil Co., the
Pacific Oil x Transportation Co, the
Dearborn Dry & Chemical Works Co.
and the Risdon Iron Works Co.
The Phoenix Savings, Building &
Loan Association yesterday paid its &C
crued license tax on capital of SI,25o,-
900, amounting to between 5000 and
S7oo-indicating payment for more
than one year.
There is a disposition apparent on the
part OF the Dearborn drug people to pay
the tax without resistance at law. They
have been very courteous Deputy At
torney General E c. Peters, who is
handling the matter, said yesterday of
the Dearborns.
Following is the law, as amended in
1908, under which the contemplated
suits are to be brought against deiin-
quent corporations:
Act SIS, Session laws of 1908, Section
2A.-"No foreign corporation Except
foreign insurance companies) which
does not invest and use it's capital in
this Territory shall have an office or
offices in this Territory for the use of
its officers, stockholders, agents or en-
ployees. unless it shall first have OBJ
tanned from the Treasurer an annual
license to do so: and for said license
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1904-08-12

every such corporation shall oay into
the Treasury of the Territory for the
use of the Territory, annually, one
fourth of a mill on each dollar of cap
ital stock which said company is au-
thorized to have, and the Treasurer
shall not issue a license to any corpora
been paid; provided, that IL the fee as
so computed does not amount to the
sum of $3.50 then such corporation shall
be required to pay for said license the
sum of $3.50.
"The Treasurer is hereby authorized
to settle and have collected an account
against any company violating the
provisions of this section for the amount
of such license fee. together with a
penalty of 80 per centum for failure
to pay the same" etc.
1t is provided that every foreign cor
poration failing to comply with any of
the statutes regarding foreign corpora
tons shall be guilty of misdemeanor
and shall be denied the benefit OF the
laws of the Territory. Such denial of
legal privileges has been held to mean
the forfeiture of the right to do BUSH
ness within the Territory.
Besides the suits at law for recovery
of the tax. injunction suits are to be
brought against many agencies to pre-
vent their doing any business in this
Territory. The list of those upon whom
this extreme measure of the law is to
be visited includes the following prom
inent concerns:
Schweitzer & Co., representing Muir
ply Grant x Co.
w. c. Gregg Co. (plantation macliin-
ery).
Seattle Brewing & Mailing Co.
Germania Savings & Loan Society.
Singer Manufacturing Co. and Wheel
er K Wilson Co. (sewing machnes).
Pacific Import Co. (dry goods.
Union Trust Co.
There is also a general movement to
be made. by the Attorney General to en-
force Act IS, Session Laws of 1893,
which requires local corporations to file
their articles of incorporation and ex-
hibits of their business each year. An
effort is on foot. however to avoid a null
tiplcity OF suits under this law through
the submission of test case. Mr.. Pc
tiers will confer with Smith & Lewis,
attorneys for Benson, Smith & Co., Ltd.
(drugs), for the purpose of arranging
case to go direct to the Supreme
Court.

COMMUNICATED.

Editor Of Review:
 nOt.ce that last evenings Miner inllicts on the good people of Bisbce another forage from the Graham coun.y papers of a half dozen years ago. These and other things were said and written in the din and heat of a Democratic row. the which row cid not plunge the nation into war, or perceptibly disturb the business there of. Stil. some Democrat (for reve- nue only) must have been hlt hard But the Miner is partial: it gives only one side. Tsere must have been two sides to this quarrel, as there are to every scrap. The American people always like fair play. They will hear beth sides or neither.
 But the letter. that horrid letter and apDu-tenances. The men who know well. and knew at the time, that I had nothing to do with getting it up, and that the first I heard of it was when the other sice used it at one of their meetings at Stafford. baBev- cd then, and still believe, that they were the real authors of it. They in- duced ono of my friends to sign my name to it. charged him ten dollars for the thing, then frightened him out of his wits by threatening to prose cute him for forgery If he or would tel that he signed it. Of course, forgery is simply a crime against property. and there is no ele- ment of any crime in this silly paper.
 l have a letter from a prominent Re publican of that place who will quote the Stafford gang against themselves. It shows the Niger in the woodpiie. I will publish it # I find that many people care 10 hear any more of this. In justice to the managers of the Bull 'etin I am glad to say that they had no part in that conspiracy.
 The gents of wonder valley who ribbed" up this rot in the first place, and are at ]: yet. are surely linea1 de scendants of the Yahoo. minutely de scribed in Gulliver's Travels. This hideous monster clambered into a tree that bore most luscious fruit and beautiful flowers. A number of mur- derers and other criminals passed near, and the Yahoo tossed them bou- quets and fruit. A company of de- cent, honest people came along. and the monster Delted them with it's own exc7ement So the Yahoos are at tacking me in this case. The Miner itself repudiates and spurns all thfs hogwash, and yet it is the only req son. it offers to Democrats to vote against ne.

THE MANASSAS BATTLE.

As stated in the Gazette of that day,
The first problem Of the army maneuvers
came to an unexpected termination at
noon yesterday when the umpires stopped
The combat. While General Grant, COM
manding the Blue army, was considered
bv some as having obtained the final
strategic advantage in the problem OF
the last two days, the chief umpire, Col
onel Wagner, explains that 1t was not
possible to accord to either General
Grant or General Bell the distinction of
victory. The problems as they are
worked out contain too many distractions
to give them any great military value,
and it has already become aserious ques-
ton whether the next maneuvers Will
have such problems as were presented
in last years maneuyers and nov in this
vicinity. Tacticaly the victory was
with General Bell, although the umPires
said after the cessation of hostilities that
General Grants advance on the centre
was Sustained" No plain or practical
decision will ever be rendered by the
umpires, at least for the public. They
will withhold their views just as the ref
erees did in the naval maneuvers last
year.
But to the eye of the average soldier
General Bell had selected a position so
strong that even superior force would
have found itimposslble to dislOdge him.
General Corbin said: 81 called the
problem of because the men were very
tired. When it was called off General
Grant had fine position, with three
brigades coming up rapidly"
The first serious casualty of the maneu-
vers occurred yesterday Private Will
liams. of the Seventh Cavalry, member
of the Brown army, was shot in the right
lung with a wad from blank cartridge.
The shot was fred by a soldier in
Tennessee regiment at short range, and
was purely accidental and incident to the
maneuvers. II is thought the wounded
man will recover.
