TROUBLE BREWING
OVER AA[A PARK

Troubles over the securing of the
Aala Park grounds in the afternoon
gre now started between the Kalani-
Gnaole League and the Riverside Jr.
League. There will also be some fight
ing on the grounds after the close of
the Riverside Senior League, which
Will probably be In about week or
two from now.
II seems that the Kalanianaole
League, which failed to make any re-
quest TO the Board of Supervisors for
the use of the grounds. as has been
the case with the other leagues. is
jealous over the action of the Riverside
Junior League, which secured the per-
mission of the Board and is now try
ing to make trouble and stop baseball
altogether If this can he done. the
baseball fans of this city will lose one
of the best Sunday sports, which has
been going on so well for the past two
years.
w. Tin Chong, the secretary of the
Riverside League, when seen this
morning Ia regaId to the article pub
lished In the Advertiser of the troub-
les, stated that as far as the River
side League Is concerned, there was
10 understanding made between that
league and the Kalanianaole League
Tor the use of the park in the after
rooms after the finishing of the River
s!qe League series. When the so-called
president of the latter league asked for
the use of the grounds from the River
side League. he was told to go to the
POard Of Supervisors, who have charge
OF the grounds.
The public does not care to see who
las the possession of the grounds in
the afternoons, but hope that certain
satisfactory arrangements may be
made between the two leagues, so that
baseball at that place may not be
stopped altogether

In speaking of the liquor traffic of
Kauai the advocate is of the opinion.

WHAT HAS BECOME
Of APPEAL COURT?
Inconvenience Caused By
SlOWneSS Of
Action

Although II has been several months
since the Tax Appeal Court heard the
various appeals brought before it,
there are considerable number OF
them upon which no decision has been
rendered, and much Inconvenience is
being experienced from this. Among
the cases still undecided are some OF
the most important, in which the legal
right of the Assessor to tax certain
property is involved.
The most important case is that OF
the appeal of EVA plantation from its
entire assessment. This appeal was
taken In order to determine whether or
"ot the plantation should be taxed on
depreciation In order to get the mat
ter before the Supreme Court of the
United States, IL was necessary for
more than $4,000 to be involved, and
e effect this end the plantation ap.
pealcd on its entire assessment. In
case the decision is adverse TO the
plantation, AS Is expected, an appeal
to the Supreme Court will be taken,
and from there, In case the opinion Is
sim against the appellant, to the Fed.
Cral Supreme Court.
1he Eva appeal was made test
case and all the other plantations
have been waiting anxiously for the
decision OF the Tax Appeal Court. The
tact that It has not yet been rendered
IS becoming a serious matter. II is
POW near the end of October, and the
Plantations Ike all other concerns,
must make their returns for the sec.
ond taxation period in January. I'm.
Ger ordinary circumstances they would
be working on these returns now, but
without decision on the deprccia
ton matter they do not know how
to go about it, 50 they are still wait
ing.
Tax Assessor Holt says that the
trouble Is that the men appointed on
the Tax Appeal Court are busy bust
ress men who have their own private
interests to look after and they do not
have time to devote their attention 10
the work of the court.
In this connection, II may be stated
that some neOpIe are commencing ll
wonder what has become of the Tax
Commission, which was appointed in,
accordance with resolution adopted
by the Legislature. to look into The
tax laws of the Territory andssuggest
what changes and revision should be
made
The members Of this commission
were appointed six months ago, but as
yet rhey have done nothing

BY the way, did you ever hear the

asked the crane.
The pelican paused in his meal. the
fish stIll squirming in his bill. He
shook his head.
"A crow once stole a piece of very
fine cheese. Flying with it to a tree,
he was about to eat II, when he
espied Mr., Reynard underneath the
tree.
The fox straightway began to
praise the crow, and, at last. begged
for one Of his charming songs. SO
pleased was the foolish crow with
these compliments that he opened his
bill to sing. when. 10, the cheese drop.

The pelican looked at the crane for
a moment. Then he opened wide his
great bill In a hearty gufaw. An in.

his long bill and had drawn from that

Great Britain Also? OF Course.

The Philadelphia Record utterly
m~iscouceiyos the situation when 1t
says that the American Protective
Tariff league is urging OF shallow
grounds that Great Britain shall be
denied what has been conceded to
Germany Nothing Of the sort:
quite the contrary. The American
Economist has uniformly contended
that II We are going into the game
Of playing tariff fayorites Great
Britain should be granted equal
iavoTs; in fact. should be granted
more, because she is a better customer
than Germany By two to one, and,
besides, she imposes no tariff at all
upon our products Saving a strictly
revenue tariff on spirits and tobacco,
whereas Germany has doubled her
tariff against our products. 1t may
be that our gifted state department
will find a way TO let Great Britain
in on al equal footing with Germany,
and so avoid the shame and disgrace
Of m~istrea;ing our best customer. 1t
is earnestly to be hoped that such
Will be the outcome, and that not only
Great Britain but every other nation
on earth will be granted the equiya.
lent Of the concessions granted to
Germany. The ooner the better, FOR
then the country will have a broad
comprehension Of the policy and a
clear understanding Of the practical
effects Of revising the tariff downward
By diplomatic dickering.
