TAXATION IN HAWAII.
Real Property.

The underlying principle of our law
in taxing real property, is that the ac
| tual market cash value at which the
property can be sold is a fair, just and
equitable value ON which to assess the
proportion due the Government for all
those benefits it gives in return, among
them the right of the individual to
have and to hold property.
Accustomed, as are our taxpayers by
long usage, to the existing system of
valuation, | hesitate to recommend any
change, particularly as our people are
remarkable in their willingness to sup
port the Government W the prompt
payment OF all taxes. / venture the
assertion, without fear of contradiction,
that no other community in the Union,
be it city, county, Territory or State,
can show, in proportion to its popula-
ton, so small ratio of appeals and
delinquencies with such high valua-
tions.
While we can take pride in the fore
going fact, yet is the cash-sale value
as equitable and subject to as little
variation as an adjusLed taxable value
an arbitrary valuation-if you desire
to so define it? Under the present sys-
tenn the widest variation in valuation
may occur, in close proximity, through
out the Territory.
If our method of assessment were
more thoroughly understood, the criti-
cism to which our tax assessors are
often subjected would be transferred
to the system of valuation under which
they act.
There is a demand in some quarters
for Board of Equalization, but, with
out a change in this principle, how can
any board equalize values2 Other com
munities have been constantly at work
aiming to secure a fair taxable value
on which the revenues of the Govern
ment should be collected, subject to as
little fuctuation as possible, and in the
determination of which every material
factor has weight. In such cases d
Board of Equalization is of value.
Therefore, [ recommend that in tax
ing property of value an exception be
made of leaseholds. requiring the owner
to pay the whole tax on the full value
of the land. This viii cause no loss in
revenue.
In the enactment of such legislation,
provision should be made to except all
leases now of record, where the tenant
does not pay all the taxes. If by the
terms of the lease the tenant pays all
taxes, assessing the landlord means
simply that, when the amount is paid,

The total appropriations which I am
willing to suggest for the salary and
current account bills provide for the
following expenditures;

Biennial Period from July 1, 1905,
to June 80, 1907.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1905-02-16
.$4,589,366.00

The foregoing estimate of revenues
and expenditures is BASED upon the sup
position that, as the representatives of
the people, you will not care to increase
the receipts by augmenting the burdens
already borne by the people. If, how
ever, you conclude that the necessary
improvements and needs are sufficiently
great to warrant such action, then [
desire to call your attention to the re
quests made by the various departments
and bureaus, as shown in the statement
on the following page, and it is hoped
that your committees will freely confer
with them as to the necessity for the
same. In this connection, L trust you
will take the initiative, as no depart
ment should press its needs upon You
until informed that your committees
are ready to receive them.

OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM.


to the Territory
OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM.
lie first and highest duty of a com
munity, after the establishment of law
and the maintenance of order, is the
education and development of those
who are to be its future citizens
A little observation of the schools of
Hawaii will show that, in addition to
the school problems with which other
communities have to struggle, we have
another of great difficulty and import
ance and without precedent. In no other
place in the world are the institutions
of the Occldent undergoing so great a
test. We have a population, the ma
iority of which consists of the descend
ants of two Oriental races. with large
and varying representations of almost
every other nationality. and we are
pouring into the mortar of our public
schools a heretofore untried mixture,
and the pestle of our public school sys-
tenn is grinding out the result.
With the evident necessity before us
of producing a homogeneous whole that
shall be Occidental in its nature, are we
to be guided by the broad principles of
our forefathers concerning the equality
of mankind and give to all nationantles
born in Hawaii the benefit of our great
institution of free schools? Or are we
to disregard these principles and dis
riminate-create caste-by refusing
to extend to others the educating that
we demand for our own race and which
IS the guaranty of the preservation and
upbuilding of our great institutions?
An ignorant electorate is fatal to free
government. Can we consistently ex
pect good citizenship and loyalty from
those to whom we deny the training
for such citizenship and loyalty? Can
we look for anything but dissatisfaction
and consequent disloyalty?
Rather than withhold from the chill
dren of any race in Hawaii the means
that make good American citizens,
shall we not, remembering that it is
largely within our power to make of
them such citizens as we would have,
extend to them every advantage for
citizens thoroughly Ameri |
CAM Let US treat them with such fair !
ness and justice, thus intoxicating |
through our public schools the great |
underlying principles of American Gov
eminent, so that they will be ever loyal |
to the land of their birth.
Our percentage of children enrolled |
and the average daily attendance ex-
coed the enrolment and average at
tendance of any other Territory, and a
number of the states, and are above
the average.
