THURSDAY, APRIL 2e, 1908.

Another blow to the stock market was the drastic remarks President Roosevelt made in his famous muck rake" speech last week, says Banker Clews. The presidents suggestion to tax large fortunes after reaching certain limit, also to impose a heavy tax on their transfer, would be restraint to thrift, as it would vir- tually amount to confiscation of property thus acquired-a measure too despotic for our form of govern ment. Large fortunes have not as yet reached point to be seriously dangerous. We had better not jump that fence until we get to it. To tax large fortunes would tend to drive money out of the country for the benefit of other nations and to the detriment of our own. It is we'll established fact in this country that people who make large fortunes are generous both in spending and giv- ing away Large fortunes are de- prived of serious danger in this coun- try owing to the fact that they cannot be willed to provide for more than two generations, while in England they are perpetuated by the entail law. Experience thus far has proven that the third generation invariably disburses with rapidity their inheri- tance soon after obtaining possession. While do not quite agree with President Roosevelt in his suggested treatment of large fortunes, I do agree with him in his statement that a willful liar is as bad as a thief, as no man is justified in telling a lie. Another man to avoid is the broker who defames a competitor and tries to injure his reputation for the pur- pose of stealing his customers Be- ware of such man; he is just as dishonest as pickpocket, and quite as contemptible.

At Guantanamo, Cuba, the navy department is putting the finishing touches on one of the finest rife ranges in the world. In some re- spects this range surpasses the fam ous English range at Bisley, where there are 290 targets. While the English have a much larger number of targets in commission, the ranges are so planned at Guantanamo that fully 2,000 men can shoot in day, and they can be accommodated at ranges which extend from 200 to 1000 yards. On one firing line there are ITO targets which will enable $40 men to shoot at once, and these ranges are so planned that the dis tance can be increased from 200 to 500 or 1000 yards without the slightest trouble. Deer Point extends out just to the westward of the range and there is a very high bank the full limit of the point. To the east ward there is another high hill, and the valley between gives the en- trance to a fan-shaped series of val leys which have been turned into a giant target range. The construc- tion of this target range, the first ever built for the navy department, was authorized by the rife practice department which is under the direc- ton of Lieutenant Commander Simms and Lieutenant Rudley Me- Lean. Three landings have been built for the crews of the ships, and the range is so close to the waters edge that it is possible for crew to land and start in to practice within fifteen minutes. Over at the main rest house there is a wireless station where messages to and from the ships in the bay can be received and sent. The range, to all purposes, has been completed, but 1t will take about s25,OO0 additional appropria- ton to finish the parking of the grounds. filling in the low places and completing the work of beautifying the place.

. years old and has strong, earnest intellectual face, which shows perhaps just touch of sadness and regret.
 There is no dispute as to what Dr. Crapsey said. The question at issue is whether or not his questioned preachings do or do not violate the doctrines of the church.
 The presentment against him con tains fifteen extracts from his book, Religion and Politics." the charge be- ing that he intentionally expressed dis belief in the doctrines of the church.
 The trial is of deep and far reaching interest not only to members of the Protestant Episcopal church, but to the whole religious community at large. Dr. Crapsey has the support of a large number of the more liberal clergy and laymen. and he will be as- sisted in his trial by distinguished rec tors from different parts of the coun- try acting as witnesses and helping him in the preparation and conduct of his case.
 The friends of the accused pastor as- serted openly that the cards had been stacked" against him and that no matter what the testimony might be the court would find against him.
 A surprise came when the Rev. Fred erick ]. K. Alexander, former assist ant to Dr. Crapsey and the first wit ness called, testified that he had made notes of Dr. Crapsey's sermons only after he had been asked by Dr.. Crap sey to resign from his church and that he had used these notes against the &C., cused pastor. Under terrible cross examination by Mir. Perkins the wit ness also was forced to admit that he had tried to get pr. Crapsey's position.
 "Did Mir Crapsey ask you to resign from the churchT he was asked.
 "I don't remember"
 Did not he send you letter asking you to resignT
 ''I think he did"
 And 1t was after you were asked to resign and had been refused an in- crease in pay that you became pained at Dr. Crapsey's remarks and took notes for future usef'
 'I refuse to answer"
 The witness was excused, and in his excitement in leaving the stand he lift ed the chair in which he had sat and carried it off the platform with him.

Real Fact. Are Suppressed,

OMAHA, Neb., April 26.--James A. Randall, a New York banker. went through Omaha on his way home. MT. Randall says the number of people killed in the earthquake and fire is be- ing suppressed. He says: '"The loss of life is estimated by persons who have been among the ruins at from 4,0Oo to 5000. The real facts. are being SUD- pressed. The number of dead will nev- CT be known, and would not be sur prised if it is far more than 5000. As excavating and clearing tip the debris goes on scores of bodies or portions of bodies are found. In the great build ings built of wood that burned hun dreds were cremated, and there is not even a bone left"

Q food will be given out to be carried

no food will be given out to be carried away.
 Under the direction of Coroner Walsh the bodies of thirty-nine persons killed in the earthquake and buried tempo rarily to save them from cremation by the approaching flames were exhumed, loaded into wagons and taken to the city cemetery for permanent interment. These bodies were identified and the names transmitted by General Greedy to the war department.
 General Greely's request for 2,50O more troops was held up, and it was suggested to him that his request was worthy of reconsideration. The dis patch, after pointing out that return to normal conditions as rapidly as practicable was desirable, says, There is no law for such use of the army"
 An idea of the task which confronts the food committee may be gained from the fact that throughout the city rations for s49,440 persons were dis tributed yesterday.
 More than POO cattle are killed and dressed daily, and sheep and hogs are put under the knife as fast as they arrive.
 The Southern Pacific is running track through the city to clear out the debris.
 Every report that comes to the coro- ner and police tells of more persons, who have been shot to death by mem- bers of the citizens patrol, who were armed with rifles and told to preserve order. ~
 It is said that Willie Britt, brother of Jimmy Britt, the prize fighter, has been killed. He was shot to death be- cause he refused to give up his auto mobile to men who represented them selves as soldiers who wanted to carry aid to the sick and wounded.
 Young Britt has been missing for several days. When search was made for him it was said that he had been injured in the earthquake or the fire that devastated the city and that he was in one of the emergency hospitals. Search of the hospitals failed to trace him, and then Benjamin Hess, appar-s ently truthful man, told of the kill ing.
 According to Hess. Willie Britt was in his automobile in Golden Gate park. Men of the citizens patrol surrounded his vehicle and told him it was conf1s- cated. Britt objected, and he was in- stantly shot. ....
 That San Francisco is to be rebuilt on better and more beautiful lines is indicated by the fact that James D. Phelan, chairman of the Improvement association of San Francisco, has ask ed Architect Daniel V. Burnham and his assistant, Mir. Bennett of Chicago, to come immediately to take up the work planned some two years ago. Burnham and Bennett are the origina- tors of plans to beautify San Francisco on lines similar to the city of Paris.

NO ALCOHOL
LEGALLY MADE
COLLECTOR CHAMBERLAIN HAS
ISSUED NO LICENSE OR PERMIT
TO EXPERIMENT.

The story of the making of alcohol
on Maui plantation is either a prema-
ture report or someone is committing
violation of the internal revenue laws.
Collector Chamberlain when asked
about the matter this morning said that
no license or permission to distil liquor
had been issued by his office for Maui.
Under the laws, even an experimental
making of a small quantity of alcohol
would be punishable offense unless It
was done under the supervision of the
internal revenue office. So far, though
there have been many inquiries by par
ties contemplating going into the BUSH
ness. No licenses to make alcohol
have been issued in the Territory of
| Hawaii.

COUNTY OF OAHU HAS OVER
SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLARS on
DEPOSIT FROM WHICH TO DRAW

The County of Oahu has at the pre-
sent moment over 100000 on deposit in
the various banks about town. In

of the game.
On July q IN accordance with the
county act the chairman of the Board
of Supervisors, George w. Smith,
County Attorney Douthitt and County
Auditor Bicknell counted over the
money the county has on deposit. The
County Act provides that such a count
ing shall take place every three months
and oftener if thought necessary. It
was found that the county had $57, 3SS.O3
on hand at that time. 1t was divided
, as follows: Redeemed Warrants $12O. 40
