JOHANNESBURG, December 1.-The
passive resistance duel between the gov
eminent and the British Indians and Chi
nese in South Africa is going on gaily
Up till now most of the scoring has been
done by the Indians. At least. they have
put the government to q good deal of
fruitlsss trouble and expense in provid-
ing registration Offices at which no one
has registered; but. as Gen. SHUTS darkly
reminded them in the course of a recent
address to his constituents. "all things
have an end" including. 1t may be sur
missed. the patience of the government.
During this month Indians from all parts
of the Transvaa1 are given last oppor-
tunity of registering in Johannesburg.

apparently doomed to wait in idleness

description--has Allied in.thes hated form.
Even the pickets look bored.
British Indians" in the Transvaai have
been so long on the defensive that their
organization and discipline" are perfect.
The boycott is bland, but vigiant 1t sue
ceeds to admiration: and yet there is. to
outward appearance, no sign of intimida-
ton. The attitude of the government is
equally uncompronising. We have it
from Gen. SHUTS himself that "the law
will be rigidly enforced, land any Indian
who has not registered himself after the
date of the re gistration will be put across
the border That. for what 1t is worth,
is the declared policy of sthe government
at the moment. 1t may be regarded as
pretty certain that the generals thun-
derbolt will never be launched.
Drastic Measures Possible.
Those thousands of Indians Will never be
put over the border. for the reason that
the legal machinery for actual physical
deportation does not exist. The colonial
secretary issetfdently relying ON the i'm
migrants restriction act for carrying out
his threat OF wholesale deportation. That
enactment. however, is still awaiting the
royal assent, and 1t would be rash to
count on exercising the tremendous pow
ers 1t confers on the colonial secretary
just at the present moment. But even If
the colonial secretary has not the power
to put the residents of this colony across
the border in the summary and wholesale
fashion he supposes, he can give any re-
calcitrant Indian an extremely unpleasant
time. The Indian who refuses to register
can be ordered to leave the colony, and

government has at its command is the
refusal to issue licenses to trade.

TAX MUST
SUPPORT THE
IMMIGRATION
NECESSARY TO
KEEP UP IMMIGRATION WORK
IN CONFORMITY WITH LAW.

AT an informal meeting of the
Board of immigration yesterday after
noon, the ruling of Secretary Bona
parte to the effect that all funds for
encouraging immigration from foreign
countries must come through the regu-
lar legislative bodies of the states or
territories desiring such immigration,
was the topic of discussion. Although
no action Of any kind was taken,
the Board recognized the fact clearly
that if any more work is to be done
towards bringing in settlers of a de-
sirable class to the Territory, some
system of taxation must be devised
to raise the necessary money which
heretofore has been betrayed by vo-
luntary contributions of the large
planters and business men, who are
especially interested in securing an
adequate labor supply.
J. p. Cooke, of the Board, in speak
ing with the Star on the subject, said
- The Board has received no advises
concerning the new ruling, other than
furnished by the press reports. The
CecisiOn tua been made so recently
that there has been no time to ar
range for any plan of action, but it Is
clearly evident unless some steps are
taken which will raise funds by taxa
tion, the work of the immigration
Board is pau. At our meeting yes
terday the subject was informally dis
cussed as to the best way of going
about raising this money. OF course
some measure on the subject will have
to be gotten through the Legislature,
but there is considerable time to do
that yet, and the matter should be
thoroughly threshed out and public
opinion crystallized upon the best
plan"

Boat Clubs Abandon
Pearl HarbOr Races
THE GREAT AQUATIC EVENT OF THE ISLANDS
THING OF PAST-WERE
CONSIDERED
TOO HEAVY A ONE-SEPTEMBER

Shell racing in Honolulu is a thing
of the past, and the Fourth of July
races at Pearl Harbor which for the
past ten years have been the big fea-
ture of the year in sporting circles,
will be missing this year and for an
idnefinite time in the future. This
decision reached last night at a meet
ing of a committee OF members Of
the Myrtle Boat Club and The Hea-
lani Boat Club, after the matter had
been thoroughly discussed. The COM
mittee was composed Of John F. So
per, George Crozier, and T. V. King,
representing the Myrtle Boat Club;
and Sam Walker, Paul Jarrett, and
d. L. Conkling, of the Healani Boat
Club.
The reason for the discontinuance
of the shell racing was largely a fl
nancial one, the members of both
clubs feeling that the heavy outlay
incidental to holding the races was
too burdensome. The races always
cost between $500 and $1,000, without
cent of income to Offset this expen-
diture. Another strong argument
against continuing the event lies in
the fact that the shells Of both clubs
are getting old, and it would soon be

discharged in police court this morn
ing by Judge Whitney.
1t appeared evident to the court
that Tin Hoon was not the bribetaker.
but that Tin Hoon was acting AS the
agent or go between for All Wan, The
Chinese, and Eugene DuvauchelIe, a
police officer. The court remarked
that Duvauchelle, if anybody, should
have been arrested and charged, not
Tin Hoon.
Chief of Detectives A. P. Taylor
will now take the matter up with
County Attorney Carthcart for the
prosecution of Duvauchelle.
Sheriff Iaukea said this morning
that he was extremely anxious that
anything of this kind should be ex-
posed
Taylor has obtained statements
from most of the parties concerned.
1t would seem that Tin Hoon went
to the Chinese gamblers and arranged
with them for hush money.
Duvauchelle was suspended from
from the detective force as soon as
his alleged guilt was suspected He
has drawn no pay since. He will not
be returned to duty. SLSrtly after
suspension he had the misfortune to
fall from a tree on to a picket fence,
painfully injuring himself.

A very thorough canvas of members
Of the legislature is in progress, for the
purpose of ascertaining the prospects
Of the enactment of an appropriation
to assist settlers to the Territory. The
recent ruling by Attorney General Bo-
naparte relative to this issue, in which
he holds that only by direct appropria-
tion by the legislature, can immigra-
tion be assisted, has brought before the
legislators a very serious problem. I'm
doubtedly the territory needs white set
tiers and only by means of direct as
sistance, can this class of immigrants
be attracted to these shores. How best
to deal with the situation, and it is
very serious one, is now receiving the
most careful consideration and discus
sion by the thoughtful member of the
legislature.
The only means whereby such thing
can be effected, is by the legislature
such project, but there seems little
prospect at this time, that the legisla-
tors could be induced to consent to
shaving down the proposed appropria-
tions in order to make up the neces-
sary sum for this settlement work. The
only other means is by increasing the
taxation or else by making a special
tax for the purpose of raising the fund.
The special tax on the plantations
would be n case of whipping the devil
around the stump" but undoubtedly,
the vast majority of the plantations
would readily consent to such solu-
tion of the matter. There are how
ever, several minor plantations that

imperative to secure new ones This
would be another drain on the finan-
ces of the club which would be heavily
felt.
By abandoning the Fourth of July
events the clubs do not wish it in
ferred that they have cut out indefi-
nitely all their meetings, The Sep
tember regattas in the harbor will
be held this year as usual, with the
usual barge races, and it may be that
some additional features will be inau-
gurated at these events. But the
shells at Pearl Harbor will be deferr-
ed indefinitely.
The decision of the clubs will be a
matter of general regret to all Homo
lulu people, as the shell racing had
come to be looked upon as one of the
features of the Fourth of July, anG
we're very popular The spirit of RI
valry beetwen the two clubs, though
of a most friendly character, was
always of the strongest, and the en-
thusiasm of the members was highly
contagious.
1t will be the universal hope of the
rblic generally that after this year
the clubs will be able to see their
way clear to resume the popular sport.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 16.-Mrs.
Henry Highton, widow of the late
Henry Highton the attorney, asked
Judge Graham yesterday to perform
the marriage ceremony of Okou Ku-
sede, her Japanese maid, and George
Nobisada, her brothers cook. Both
servants have been employed by the

Judge Graham consented to per-

brother.

would, it is thought be apt to oppose
such a law. But from the opinions
expressed today, this would seem to
be the means, the most likely to be
acceptible to certain legislators.
The idea of increasing the general
tax is one that would not fail to arouse
the greatest amount of protest and
kicking. The argument would be ad-
vanced that as the importation of inn
migrants was for the benefit of the
plantations, they and not the general
public should pay the extra cost. While
such contention would be erroneous,
for it is the general interests Of the ter
ritory that would be served by the inn
portation of settlers, who would offset
the encroachment of the Japanese cheap
laborers, still, it is doubtful if such ar
bument would find credence with a
considerable element of members of
the legislature.
1t is very probable that a special
committees will be appointed to inquire
into the conditions and to report on the
best solution of the problem. The
situation is a very grave one and this
fact is fully realized by the ablest mem
bers of the Legislature.
From the statements made today, by
some members of the legislature it
would seem that a special joint confer
ence committee to investigate into the
conditions, were the most favored ac-
tion to take in the preliminary stages
of the case. However the matter will
undoubtedly be discussed for some days
yet before even these initial steps to
do anything in the way of selecting a
committee are taken.

Sow PLENTY of Wheat.

The high prices at which flour IS
now selling should stimulate our farm
ers to put in good crop Of wheat
whenever their lands are adapted to
this crop. Thorough preparation and
good seed are necessary to a good
crop of wheat; but it is now too late
to pillow and break land for wheat. II
to be soWn in stalk land, cut the land
well with a disc harrow until fine
seed-bed is made, then sow the wheat.
To those who have been sowing from
three pecks to one bushel per acre,
we suggest that they add another
peck per acre and see if they do not
get more wheat. The writer has sowed
one and a half bushels per acre with
good results. If the wheat follows a
clover or pea fallow, use a fertilizer
composed principally of acid phos'
phate, if on red land, and if on gray
land, add some potash so as to have
it analyze about 10 per cent phos
phoric acid and per cent to 4 pei
cent potash Use from 200 to BOO
pounds per acre.

Value OF speItz.

Speltz is a species of wheat, and
more correctly known as emmer. 1t
is grown more largely in Minnesota
and the Dakotas. It is an arid region,
dryEeather plant, but experiments on
low land at the South Dakota station
have shown yield of GO bushels per
acre. As an element in a feeding or
fattening ration it is in high favor.
In nutritive value it is hardly equal
to corn, but the economy of it's use
depends upon its availability and cost
Of production. A good many steers
were marketed at South Omaha last
spring thats gave a good account OF
themselves from the use of speltz in
the feeding ration.
