SO far all that has been built of the
Chicago, South Bend and Northern In
diana line is the extension from South
Bend to LaPorte and Michigan City
The Murdocks, however. are oper-
ating the city line in Michigan City
and have a very creditable service
there. One of the more recent i'm
provements made by this company has
been the erection of a splendid new
lnterurban station to cost $4,000.
Hanna Interests, Too.
The Hanna interests, the interests
that are behind he Chicago, Lake
Lake Shore and Souh Bend line, are
doing much for Michigan City. May
or Fred c. Miller estimated that this
company has spent a million dollars
in this city by the lake." during the
past year.
One of the visible results of this
great expenditure OF money is a mag
nificent power house. located down by
the harbor. which is to cost in The
neighborhood of 100000. The build
ing is of concrete construction, has a
tile roof and will contain six steam
turbine engines with a total capacity
Of $4,000 horse power.
This power house with the aid of
nine substations. will furnish power for
the entire line. The substations are to
be located as follows: One at the car
barns in Michigan City and two others
on the outskirts of the city, one at
Terre Cope, two at South Bend. one
at Indiana Harbor. one at East Chicago
and one at Kensington.

This g an outline of what has been
done in the past and what is to be
done in the future 1t is now possible
to go from Michigan City to LaPorte

RUSSIA Friendly, Says Speaker.
In proposing the health OF Secretary
and Mrs. Taft the Russian foreign
minister said that it was a keen pleas
ure to welcome one of the leading
statesmen of the great northern re-
public. He was afraid that the great
speed with which Secretary Taft had
travelled the entire breadth of the en-
pire had enabled him to obtain only
a birds eye view, yet he hoped that
the secretary had gathered a convic-
ton that the sympathies of the Russian
people for America were as warm as
ever. a conviction which, when con
veyed by him to his fellow Americans.
would surely strengthen the historic
friendship and mutual respect of Russia
and America.
Secretary Taft expressed his thanks

JUDGMENT FOR RENT.
REVERSED DECISION
IN CAMPBELL ESTATE

SAN FRANCISCO, October 15.-The
Appellate Court, sitting in Sacramento
yesterday, reversed the decision of the
Superior Court of Santa Clara county
in the suit brought by three of the chill
dren of the late James Campbell of Ho-
nolulu against their mother, Abigail K.
Campbell Parker and their sister, Alice
K. Campbell. The action was brought
to set aside the sale of certain valua-
BILE real property in San Jose on the
ground that the defendants used fraud
in the administering of Campbell s
estate.
The property involved includes the
st. James Hotel in San Jose and is
valued at $250,00O.

BUYING LAND FOR

Negotiations are now in progress be-
tween Captain Orwell and the owners
of land at Mahuena, or Koloa Point,
Hawaii, where the engineer officer de-
sires to install a light to be of service
to the interisland craft which pass that
way. The light is to be of the island
beacon type and is one of the many
which are needed in the Territory and
which will be installed by the light
house department as soon as possible
The need of light at this particular
point has been called attention to by
the captains of the interisland steamers
many times and they will be glad to
know that it will soon be in place to
assist them in navigation.

PINEAPPLE LAND
PAYS No TAXES
Tax Appeal Court Holds Les
s0r's Interest to Be
Exempt.

The lessons of land actually in use
in the cultivation of pineapples can
not be taxed under the act of the
Legislature. The Tax Appeal Court
SO ruled in a decision handed down
yesterday in the case of the Oahu
Railway & Land Company, John Ii
Estate Ltd, and the Dowsett Com
pany, on appeal from the Tax AS
SCISSORS assessment.
The court says:
The appellants, lessons of land leas-
ed by them to sundry pineapple grow
ers, claim exemption from taxation on
the premises so leased, under provi>
sions of Section 1928 of Revised Laws,
which provide that for the i've years
from April 23rd, 1903, all property ac-
tually in use for the production of
pineapples shall be exempt
from taxation of any kind.
1t is contended by the Tax Assessor
that this exemption does not apply to
the lessons in question who are not
themselves engaged in the production
of pineapples, and that the law con-
interest of the party or parties di-
rectly engaged in such production;
that such exemption can not be claim
ed by parties having only an indi-
rect connection with the pineapple in
dustry or merely receiving, as in this
case, benefits from the actual pine
apple producers. That this is rea-
sonab1e view of what the makers of
inf ic
questioned by the court, and in APP
parently similar cases, quoted in the
brief for the Tax Assessor, decisions
appear to have been made in recog-
milton of such reasonable intention. It
is not, however, the province of this
court to read into the law ''inten-
tions," when the language of the law
itself is not ambiguous. The law pro-
vides that all property actually in use
for production of pineapples shall be
exempt, and does not make provision
for exemption of any particular in
terest. The property actually in use
is certainly the land upon which the
pineaples are grown, and that the
lands of the appellant lessons are so
used is not disputed.
Whatever doubt may exist as to the
Intentions of the law makers, there is
no doubt in the mind of the court as
to the meaning of the words used in |
Section 1928 of the Revised Laws, and |
the claim of the appellants for exemp-
zion is therefore sustained.
