AUTO GRACE

Automobiling is a sport that has
come to stay in Honolulu. The In.
creasing number of machines seen on
the streets from day to day and the
constant arrival of the best American
cars with the incoming of almost every
steamer to Honolulu gives evidence of
the popularity this king of sports" is
attaining here.
Another evidence of popularity Is the
plan of the Won Hamm.Young Co. for
the immediate construction of a con-
crete garage for the housing of auto
mobiles and for the general convent.
ence of Automobiles In the city. The
garage will occupy ground space of
5OxlOO feet and will be fitted with lock-
ers, ladies' dressing rooms, and every
modern devise. 1t will be open day
and night. Gasoline can be obtained
at any hour Of the twenty.four, ma
chine can be left for repair, and will
be taken entire care of IL the owner

Col Soper then read a letter from
Governor Carter published two years
ago, recommending a cooperative tele.
phone system; also dwelling on the nd.
Vantages OF the automatic system. He
said the present was a one-man sys-

j. Emmeluth raised some objections
to the old bill. saying that il allowed
the new company to take over every
telephone company in the islands doing
business under a permit and operate
them under 25.year license. Did not
provide for sufficient inspection of
construction, nor for modification of
existing grades and profiles to suit

provision for maximum rate.charge.

Col. soper said that IL was up to the

DER AMUSEMENT.

The Merchants Association yester.
day afternoon put the automatic tele.
rhone bill UP to the Legislature by
passing a resolution that the Acsocla.
ton favored giving franchise to the
automatic people, leaving the l.egisla.
ture TO amend the bill now before them
as suits It best.
! The Association also took under nd.
Visement substitute for the tax on
foreign corporations bill, prepared by
IL. Il. Cooper, l.. A. Thurston and 9th.
ers and submitted to the Association
yesterday by Mr.. Cooper.
| MIR. Cooper said he and l.. A. Thurs.
ton had been considering House Bill
NO. 1S9. introduced by Representative
Harris. They represented the Union
OIL Company and the Pacific Oil 4
transportation Co. They thought the
Dill as introduced was not fair in its
provisions. Under the present law the
foreign corporations are taxed on their
capital stock, IL more than $3.50 Mr..
Cooper said this was unfair as II dis.
, eliminated between corporations. A
bill which he favored had been intro.
duced early In the session providing
that foreign corporations pay either a
tax or license fee amounting to 5000.
He thought large corporations like the
two mentioned, doing a great business
here, should be treated as domestic
corporations, since they had taxable
property here.
He said he thought there would be a
fight on Harris's bill, finally resulting
in all the foreign corporations getting
under blanket corporation or some.
thing to rank as domestic corporations.
lie did not think foreign corporations
should be Disseminated against, par.
ticularly being taxed ON amount of
capital stock. A direct tax or fixed
license fee was best. He said under
the present law such corporations as
the Oil companies not only had to pay
taxes on taxable property, but also on
their capital stock.
A draft Of an act to provide for such
contingencies had been prepared Mr..
Cooper submitted 1t. He did not think
this bill would be contested by the cor.
porations concerned with 1t, certainly
not by the ones he represented.
Foreign Company Bill.
Briefly the bill provides for an an.
Eual tax Of 5000 on foreign corporations
doing business in the Territory, pro.
Niding they do not pay taxes in excess
OF that amount.
