sudden blow In revenge for the action
OF the Senate IN numbering the Prim-
AIRY BILL no measure can be trusted to
stay dead In the House. Kaleiopu has

into 1t. A number of bills have gone

Mrs. Miller's New Residence, Earned
In Less Than One Year.

Several years ago Mrs. Miller learned
of a mild and simple preparation that
cured herself and several friends OF
female weakness and piles. She was
besieged by so many women needing
treatment that she decided to furnish
Il to those who might call for II. She
started with only few dollars cap
ital, and the remedy, possessing true
and wonderful merit, producing many
cures when doctors and other remedies
failed, the demand grew so rapidly she
was several times compelled to seek
larger quarters. She now occupies
one of the city's largest Office buildings,
which she owns, and almost one hun
dred clerks and stenographers are re-
CURED to assist in this great business.
Million Women Use It.
More than million women have
used Mrs Miller's remedy, and no
matter where you live, she can refer
you TO ladies In your own locality who
can and will tell any sufferer that this
marvellous remedy really cures wo-
men. Despite the fact that Mrs. Mil
ler's business Is very extensive, she Is
always willing to give aid and advice
to every suffering woman who writes
to her. She is a generous. good woman
and has decided to give away to wo-
men who have never used her med
icine $40 10000 worth absolutely FREE.
Every woman suffering with pains In
the head, back and bowels, bearing
Gown feelings, nervousness, creeping
sensations up the spine, melancholy,
desire to cry, hot flashes, WEAKNESS, or
piles from any cause, should sit right
down and send her name and address
TO Mrs. Cora B. Miller, Box 1927, Ko-
komo, Ind, and receive by mail free
of charge in plain wrapper) a 50-cent
box of her marvellous medicine; also

vantage of this Generous means of get

MERCHANTS, TONNAGE TAX AND
APPROPRIATIONS.

So much has been said of Honolu
In "hogging it all' and so many i'm
portant appropriations reduced ia
consequence, the wonder is that Ho.
nOlulu business men accept the re.
suit with so much complacence and
continually put up the price for Ter,
Iltorial work.
Outside Islands raised an objection
to the County division of the income
tax. Honolulu acQuiesccd without u
murmur.
Now comes the Promotion Com
mittee appropriation, and the Board
Of Health emergency fund for meas
ures that will give the central port
and the territory better protection
from contagious diseases. The gem
tlemon Of the Legislature respond
that the Promotion Committee us a
Territorial institution Is, huncomha
and the emergency measures can be
taken care of in the same manner NJ
IN the past.
This means that the merchants Of
Honolulu must pay tonnage tax on
their imports In order that the Pro-
motion Committee may be supported
and the Board of Health provided
with private funds to do Territorial
work,--when the inadequate Terri
toriai appropriation runs out.
This Is neither fair to the business
men of Honolulu nor Is II good bust
ress. Some day. active men will
bring the matter to an issue, and
face 1t as II should be faced
If promotion work Is not Terrific
rial, and therefore entitled to an APP
preparation from the Legislature,
then there is no earthly reason why
the importers of Honolulu should
Fay special tonnage tax on every
pound of freight they bring into the
port, and devote a good portion of
this tax TO Territorial Board Of
Health work.
Promotion and the protection of
the port work together in more ways
than one. Promotion Is useless with
'hN AH' bbl 10 htpl 'lNdl. llDllt-
lulu merchants pay tonnage tax to
make up the Territorial deficit and
furnish fund which the Board of
Health may use in cleansing opera
tions. Promotion gets what is left.
Sanitation should come before pro-
motion. But what right have the
people Of the Territory to take mon
ely out Of the pockets of Honolulu
merchants for the work of Terri
torial department?
People say taxes must not be in
creased. But what is the tonnage
tax? Is it not special levy on H0.
nolulu-IIilo Is also on the llst-for |
the benefit of the Territory?
One per cent. taxes has become o. |
sacred in the minds of some of our |
citizens that they are willing to pay, |
or let the other fellow pay, hundreds |
of dollars through a tonnage levy or
. Merchants Association levy or a !
Chamber of Commerce assessment,
all for the purpose of saying that our
taxes are only one per cent. and must
not be raised, .....T s..g..r ANA.
The present system Is not fair. II
Is not business-like.

SUNDAY CANCELS DATE.
Baseball Evangelist Will Not 40 to
Ga!esbura as Gypsy Smith Is There.

=.
Galesburg, ILL.,, Jan. 2s-The minis
terial union has received a letter from
Evangelist William A. Sunday, ask
ing to be released from his engage
ment to hold meetings in Galesburg
this fall. Sunday was asked to wait
until after Gypsy Smiths meetings,
now in progress, before making his
final decision. In letter to friend,
Sunday says:
II have written that will not go to
Galesburg and follow SO strong a
speaker as Gypsy Smith. have stead
fastly refused other towns for the
same reason.
"The arrangements with me were
made long before any date with Mr..
Smith. There are hundreds Of towns
that have never had union meetings,
SO give my time to them"
Friends think Sunday is actuated by
belief that he can accomplish more
in towns where no union revival has
been held.

TO TAX ALL THE BACHELORS.
Senator Thomas Kinney Introduces
Bill In the Missouri Senate.

Jefferson City, Mo-, Jan. 23.-Sena-
tor Thomas Kinney has introduced In
the senate his bill to tax all bachelors
In the state. The bill is regarded as
a joke. but Kinney is serious on the
subject and the law. II passed, Will
be by no means new in Missouri When
Missouri was part of Louisiana terri
tory in 1905, law was passed NAM
ing the subjects OF taxation. Along
with slaves, farms, tanneries, brew
cries, distilleries, 1t names "all unmar-
ried male persons above the age Of
81 years not owning property OF q
taxable value Of $100.'
1t provides for a tax of 81 to be col
lected from every such person Later
when "the county Of Arkansas" had
been withdrawn and l.-.ssouri terri
tory extended only from the states
present southern border to the present
Canada line, a new revenue law was
passed, and it was provided that all
bachelors must pay tax Of 81 year
as long as they remained single. N
1920, when Missouri became a state,
the revenue laws were revised and the
tax for being bachelor was reduced
to 81 a year and it was provided that
1t should be paid only by single free
white men between the ages of 81 and
so. 1t remained that way for great
many years. The law was finally re-
pealed. but there is no record as to
whether the bachelors sent q lobby
here or simply got control Of the legis-
lature through becoming members
themselves.
Kinney would have raised the fee to
$40 and turn the money into the school
fund, but If the house Of representa-
tievs insists upon 1t, as 1t doubtless
will, he will consent to have the money
turned into the road fund Kinney
also refuses to make the age limit az
low as formerly. He is willing to
make 1t 25 years and would not OBJ
ject seriously to 80 years.

John Gavin Beaten to Death
Near His Home, Four

ROBBERY SUSPECTED
MOTIVE OF CRIME

Murdered Man at New

Burlington, Jan. "a Special Set
upon by assassins while returning from
New London to his home, four miles
west of the town, John Gavin, a prom.
1nent Henry county farmer was brutal.
ly murdered last night. The suspected
motive OF the murder is robbery. The
authoritles are searching for strang-
er seen with Garvin yesterday.
Gavin was at a hog sale in New
London all day yesterday. He started
for home at 8 o'clock last night. Early
this morning farmer driving by the
road saw the team tied to the fence.
and lying beneath the wheels the mu-
tilated body of Gavin, cold in death.
The head was beaten to q pulp and
the clothing was torn badly, indicating
that there had been a severe strug-
gle. Near the body was found 3
fence rail covered with blood and hair.
the weapon with which the assassin
committed the deed.
Gavin was so years Of age. He had
no enemies and his neighbors are un.
able to give clue as to the perpetra-
tors of the deed. They are aiding tho
police, however, in attempts to run
down the murderer. 4
There was no money found in the
clothing, while it was known that
Gavin had been seen with roll of
bills at New London while purchas-
Ing stock at the sale. He also had
money with him that represented his
profits derived from the sale of stock
he had on the market.
This strengthens the theory that
robbery was the motive Of the brutal
murder.

lation to Help Ameri-

Washington, D. c., Jan. 23.-The
president today sent j I1essage to cen
gress calling attention. to the great de-
sirabtlity of the enactment Of legisla-
tion to help the American shipping
trade by encouraging the building and
running of lines Of large and swift
steamers to South America and the
orient. The urgent need Of our coun-
try's making an effort to do something
like its share in carrying It's own trade
on the ocean had been called to his at
tention, the President says, in strik-
Ing fashion by the experiences of Sec
retaW Root on his recent South Ameri-
can tour.
Favors State Aid.
State aid to the steamship lines the
President says, is as much part Of
the commercial system today, as the
state employment of consuls to pro-
mote business. The President says
the proposed law, which has been dis.
cussed in congress, Is in no sense ex-
perimental. ut is based on the best
and most successful precedents," he
said. "as for instance in the recent
Cunard contract with the British gov
ernment.
Must Hold Trade.
The President, discussing the bill
now before the committee, said: "It
would surely be discreditable for us to
surrender to our commercial rivals
the great commerce of the orient, the
great commerce we should have with
South America, and even our own
communication with Hawaii and the
Philippines"
