BOROUGH COUNCIL
Makes Up The Tax Budget.

Ameeting of the Mayor and Council
was held Tuesday evening. Mayor
Gentleu presided with Councilman Kille,
Long and Layman present.
Mayor Gentieu reported S25 license fee
collected for j. G. French'e carrousel and
$4.75 for licensing vendors.
Current bills We're Ordered paid.
Jos, r. Moreland resigned as Borough
Engineer. w. A. Summerill was appoint
ed Borough Engineer which appointment
was confirmed,
David Johnson, Chief of the Liberty
Fire Company, and other firemen were
present to ask for Borough aid for the
Company. He said a few young men
are giving their means and time to main
tain an efficient fire company. Several
give much towards its support, but some
whose property is to be protected give
nothing, There is $3.50 yet due on the
chemical fire engine with interest, maxi
ing over 81, ZOO.
AS an efficient fire company not only
adds to the safety against fire but lowers
the insurance rates, they asked assist
ance from the council.
MIR. Johnson also read the letter below
from the Cumberland Fire insurance
Company, which was accompanied by
$40
Assessor David P. Featherer was pres
ent to ask for the amount of tax for
borough purposes this year. He stated
that the taxable valuation in the Borough
last year was about SITS, 900, This year
it would be about $757,000, a loss of
$2l 200. There was a loss of about
$37,0O0 in bank stock by the recent
court decision declaring the Buck law
exempted u. S. bonds and other bonds.
There was also a loss of about IS, 900 OH
Railroad property made by the State
Board OF Assessors, a total of about
$42, 900. He had made about $21, 900
gain which would make the net loss
about S2l. 600 less than last year. After
fine figuring by Clerk A. G. Justice it
Vas decided to raise $4l56. so which
would make the tax rate about
$I.70. As there is $4,000 less school tax
to be raised this year, the increase in the
Borough budget to meet the Fire Com
needs and the cost of the state
macadam roads will keep the tax rate
to last wear

CHINESE PREPARING
FOR THEIR NEW YEAR

The Chinese New Year of 1908, which
will fall on the 1st of February next
will be one that will be remembered
by the Chinese of Honolulu. Although
it Is nearly a month ahead yet, the
Chinese are making preparations for
the celebration and when Konohi ar
rives, everything will be in readiness
to make that day a happy one.
From now on, steamers arriving
from the Orient will carry supplies of
every description consigned to Chinese
merchants here for the New Year holi-
days. In the Chinatown quarters, the
lantern-makers will be kept busy max
ing lanterns of different sizes and COL
ors. the Chinese women at home may
be seen sewing dresses for the chill
dren, as it is customary with Chinese
that new clothes should be worn in
the holiday season.
The Americanized Chinese here are
not slow with their plans this year for
socials, sports, etc. The members of
the Chinese Aloha Club are making
preparations for a grand concert and
dance to be given at the K. of P. hall
on the eve of Chinese New Year. This
is the first of its kind ever given here.
The Chinese Athletic Club will hold its
annual meet at the Boys Field on Feb.
1st, and from what can be seen now.
this year will surpass all those of for
mer times.

Editor Advertiser: The editorial in

The Board of Health and its presi-
dent had no knowledge of the publi-
cation and their consent was not
asked.
According to universal custom, re-
prints were issued by the publishers
of the original article at their ex-
pense, and distributed to the profess
sion.
So far as I know, your newspaper
is the first to advertise the matter
among laymen.
The discovery was made about two
years ago, notice of it given officially
to the Board of Health a little later.
and secrecy enjoined by the board by
special order dated March q. 1906.
The Board of Health broke" no
SEAL and it has had nothing what
ever to do with the exploitation of the
matter.
Lapse of time released it.
BY virtue of precedent in all coun-
