This was the closing message of
George w. Smith, president of the Ho-
nolulu Merchants Association, to the
members of the association at its last
meeting for the year, held yesterday
afternoon. The meeting was an inter-
esting one throughout, the matters I'M
der discussion being important ones
and the debates keen.
Much of the attention of the men,
bers was given to the debate on the
Shippers Wharf Tax question, some
thing concerning which few seemed to
definitely know anything except that
the money had to be paid and that it
was advisable to continue paying it.
President George w. Smith, in a sat
isfed tone, announced that quorum
was present within two minutes of the
advertised hour. The minutes of the
last meeting, some months old. were
read.
FINANCES AND BALANCES.
E. A. McInerny, auditor, presented
a report showing the association solvent
but almost broke, the balance on hand
up to November 80 being $27.93. This
statement did not include the Novem-
ber dues, $147.50, nor the dues for
the current month. The income had
been $1927.01, and the outgo $1899.os.
The chairman asked about the out
standing bill due for the association s
share in the $1080 which the banquet
to the Congressman had cost. The
chairman suggested an assessment of
So head to wipe out the debt.
A motion was made that such an
assessment be levied forthwith, the
motion being seconded by several.
John Emmeluth objected to an az
bitrary assessment and wanted to know
what the committee had had banquet
for without previously providing the
funds.
F. w. Macfarlane explained that the
committee had acted in good faith. The
association was the only delinquent and
the only honorable way now was to
dig up and pay.
The motion carried without further
debate or objection

and are totally unlike either Eskimo or
Athahaskans. They show strong traces
of Asiatic ancestry They had never
seen q white mar before. and crime IS
unknown among them. They have no
laws being governed by priests, who are
paTiarchs. They are intelligent. and their
religion is nature worship OF a high or

use the breasts Of sea. lions and a species
Of wild duck.
