Tax Assessor and Collector Holt, IN
his crusade against delinquents is
about to begin garnishment proceed
ings against the laborers of the County
Road and Garbage departments to the
number of between $50 and 200 He
states that he doesn't want to do this
because it will work a hardship on
many of these employees of the County,
but he has been unable to get the
Board of Supervisors to work in con-
junction with him in having the men
pay the amounts they owe the Terri
tory, and hence must resort to the law
in carrying out his sworn duty.
Road Supervisor Sam Johnson, in
whose department the large part of
these delinquents are employed, does
not take at all kindly to Hollis sug-
gestion. 1T isn't my business to col
lect taxes" he declares, "and why
should | get all those Hawaiians sore
at me for my holding back part Of
their money? No sir, / don't propose
to do it. If Sam Johnson holds out a
| dollar or two dollars from mans
wages it isn't the tax collector who is
doing it, but Sam Johnson, and the
more they think about it and talk
about it the worse Sam Johnson gets
in their eyes. No sir, / have enough
troubles of my own without shoulder
ing somebody elses."
The taxes in question are poll taxes
largely, amounting to S. each. If the
delinquents have to be sued for It, the
costs and penalties will put each Sc
tax up to 1876, which is more than
the weekly wage of most of the men
Holt thinks that by coupon system
the amount could be taken from each

KIHEI DEAL LOOKS
GOOD TO PEOPLE
OVER 10000 SHARES SECURED FOR
. INSTRUMENTATION AND PROS
Poets FAVORABLE FOR SALE.

j. P. Cooke, of Alexander & Baldwin,
who left for San Francisco on the ST.
IBERIA, will take up with the directors
of the Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar
Company, the matter of buying the
Kihei Plantation for half million
dollars or at the rate of $40 a share
The present shareholders are anxious
and willing to sell at that figure, real
izing that there is not much hope for
the future. The plan is to disincor-
porate the company; there are $4,000
shares in all, and up to yesterday,
stockholders, representing over 10000
shares, signed the petition to disincor-
porate OF course, everything depends
on the action of the Hawaiian Com
mercial directors; but in town, it is
generally believed that the deal will go
through.
The plantation has never made any
money, and the future does not hold
any alluring prospects. The 1906 croI
of 5161 tons was taken off at loss OF
nearly $4,000; the crop for 1907 is not
expected to exceed 5000 tons, so no
money this year will be made.
Many stockholders agree that the
wisest course to pursue would be to
sell to the Hawaiian Commercial; they
argue that only this big company can
make anything out of Kihei And now
it appears that one of the boom time
plantations will be swallowed up by
it's big neighbor When Kihei started
people were wild to secure stock; the
shares commanded big premiums anC
there was much trading in the stock
Kihei made money for some people bu
the great majority lost in their trans
actions in this plantation.

THEOSOPHISTS DECIDE THAT
THEY WILL NOT ADOPT ANY
MORAL CODE.

CHICAGO, Sept. 15.-The Theosophi-
cal Society today decided against the
adoption of a moral code and conclud-
ed the twenty-frst annual convention
of the American section at Kimball's
Hall by declaring in favor of Charles
Leadbetter This action defeated those
officers who have led the fight against
Leadbetter and allows him to rejoin
the society if he so desires.
Mrs. Annie Besant of Adyer, Ind,
the recently elected world president OF
the Theosophist Society, declared
strongly against the adoption of a
moral code, so called, a question that
has agitated theosophists for some
time past.
Mrs. Besant declared in the COM

theosophists are one in their eagerness
to raise the moral tone of the society
Where the members of the society diff

HOPE TO DO
BETTER NEXT YEAR
RIFBEMEN OF THE NATIONAL
GUARD PLANNING TO IMPROVE
THEIR SCORING.

The general topic of conversation
among officers and men of the National
Guard since the return home of the
rifle team from its contest at Camp
Perry, Ohio, is ways and means for
getting better results next year, and
plans are making for very difigent
practice between now and next sum-
mer.
All things considered the Hawaiian
marksmen made a very good showing.
The two ranges at which they fell
down at all was i'm shooting at 1000
yards and skirmish firing. At 500 yards
they eXcelled only two other teams
being ahead of them in the scores
Ohio and Massachusetts. The team
score at this distance was 496.
Plans are nearly completed in the
Board of Public Works department for
the new target gallery which is to be
built with money furnished by the
War Department on the vacant lot on
Beretania street near the drill shed
This will soon be advertised for and
rushed to completion as rapidly as pos
sible 1t will be equipped with modern
target guns and will give the boys OPP
portunity to practice a great deal than
they do at the present time.
Besides this it is hoped to make ma
terial improvements in the Kakaako
ranges by the addition of a number of
butts at further distance. Col Jones
has secured a five-year lease with the
Bishop Estate for the property on
which the range is located which il
acceptable to the War Department will
make it possible to have one of the
finest rifle ranges in the United States.
This lease will go to Washington by
the next mail.
There is a decided sentiment among
business men in the city to lend all
their and and influence towards provid-
ing a first class rife range here, for the
reason that in case such a thing is
available it is almost certain to cause
war vessels to rendezvous here for tar
get and small arms practice. when
otherwise they would go to the Coast;
and the experience generally with the
Navy boys is such that from business
and social reasons such a result is
greatly to be desired.
