GRADUATED
INCOME TAX

John A. McCnndless, n Senator and
Minister of the Interior under tn,
Republic of Hawaii, now capitalist
largely interested in the sugar industry
and other important local enterprises
Is strongly in favor of graduated
income tax for raising the additional
revenue that may be needed to carry
on the present immigration policy Of
the Territory.
"In my opinion" Mr.. McCandless
said yesterday, cit would be very un.
wise to raise our present tax rate on
property from one per cent.
'.How much money do we want for
immigration-if that is the only rea-
son they want to raise the tax rate
Whatever the amount, maintain that
the way to get that money is out of
progressive income tax. Let the rich
men stand it, if they will benefit by
it. l believe the Supreme Court would
stand by a graduated income tax.
81 would make the first $1,000 to
$500 pay l per cent, from $500 to
$4,000 say 2 per cent. or l 1-2 per cent,
from $4,000 to $4,000 another one-half
per cent, $4,000 to $4,000 another half
per cent, and over $4,000 still another
half per cent, or sufficient to meet the
requirements of the problem. For they
can get data in the Tax office to show
just what will be needed.
''Make it progressive income tax
and then they will have money for i'm
migration. For / think no one can
deny that there is no tax more just
than progressive income tax. An in
come tax meacure has been introduced
in the French Assembly by the Min
istry, with maximum rate of per
cent. The income tax is one of the
principal sources of the British revenue.
"Now L think that is what our
Legislature should do for immigration
if the planters, the well-to-do people,
wish to help in bringing in immigra-
ton of a class that will make American
citizens. But don't let our property
tax levy be increased. Once enter the
wedge in that place and there is no
saying where the process will end To
pile taxes on property would tend to
defeat one of the very objects of in
Producing European immigrants, name
ly, the building up of Independent
homes of people capable of bearing the
responsibilities of citizenship and thus
developing the Territory on American
lines
while l thoroughly believe that a !
man with an income of thousand
dollars should pay something, still
would not increase the tax on small
incomes Let those who are well able,
those who will receive the more imme-
date benefits from the introduction of
labor, bear the principal weight of the

AMOUNT OF LAND

The two kipukas applied for in Kau

The purpose of the applicants is TO
run dairy and raise cattle on a small

probably be in obtaining access TO the

The Table FORK.

That the table fork should be vir-
tually unknown and at any rate I'M
used in the orient is the more strange
when it is borne in mind that it orig
inally came from Constantinople. Long
before the fork made its appearance In
France it was in use at Venice, where
It had been introduced in 1895, on the
occasion Of the wedding of Don Pietro
OricoIa Argilo, son of the doge of
Venice. to a princess OF the imperial
house of Byzance. People at Venice
were astonished at the marriage feast
to see the bride make use of a small
gold fork for conveying the food from
her plate to her mouth, instead OF
spoon and fingers. The bridegroom
was SO delighted with the idea that he
at once had a whole stock Of gold
forks made for his own use and for
that of his relatives, and before many
months were past there was not q
patrician IN Venice who did not en-
ploy fork at his meals. The use of
the fork spread very slowly through
Italy and over the remainder Of Eu-
rope. 1t was not until some 200 years
afterward that it was introduced into
france by Duke John of Brittany. =

Treatment Of Dutch Children.

The Dutch peasant lives with canals
all about him and reaches his cottage
by way of drawbridge. Perhaps it's
In the blood Of Dutch child not to
fall into canal. AT all events, the
Dutch mother never appears to anticf-
pate such a possibility. One can imag-
ine the average English or American
mother trying to bring up a family in
house surrounded by canals. She
never would have a minutes peace un-
til the children were in bed. But, then,
the mere sight of canal to the Eng
lish child suggests the delights of a
sudden and unexpected bath.
An Englishman inquired of a Dutch
woman, "Does a Dutch child by any
chance ever fall into a canal?'

a few years ago, at the conclusion OF a
session of the National Legislature, it was
cynically designated as the billion dollar
Congress, y because a million dollars had
been appropriated for all the government
expenditures OF the year, including the War
Department, postofice, interior, navy, PEN
sions and everything else. 1t now appears
that within the past nine years no less than
$4,000 automobiles have been manufac-
tured, at a value of about 81 ,000, 900, 900.
OF these zoo, 600 were built last year In
New Jersey there are about 10000 licensed
automobiles, and these, at an eyerage valu-
alton Of 81 500 each, which is very moder-
ate. would represent an aggregate invest
ment Of $45, 600, 900. Ten per cent. of the
money paid for the automobiles licensed in
New Jersey would therefore almost meet
the entire expenses Of running the State for
a year, since the general appropriation for
1907 is 81. 537, 1873. These figures show the
enormous growth of the automobile indus
try not only, but also how much money the
well-to-do will pay for their amusement in
comparison with what is paid to run the
State and national government And yet
the people who pay by far the largest pro-
portion OF the taxes cannot afford to own
automobiles. Newark NewsI

The king Of Khotan. in central Asia,
made overtures for the hand of the
daughter Of the emperor Of China, and
his suit was favorably entertained. But
there was something from China which
he coveted even more than the fair
princess and which he had failed to
win by war; So he Induced his bride

her hair a number of silkworm eggs
and seeds of the mulberry plant when
she came to him, and in that romantic
fashion was it that the culture of the
