The big league games on Saturday
afternoon are causing a good deal of
talk among tie fans as to the outcome,
and the wise ones say the Heads and
the Puns will win out, although the
followers of the Saints and Kams are
just as certain.
The games will be exciting to say
the least, and the best baseball of the
season is looked for. The Saints and
the Heads play the first game, while
the Rams and the Puns line. up in the
second Will Chillingworth and Bush
nell will be the pitchers for their re-
spective teams, while Reuter- and
Hampton will perform for their fol-
lowing.
Both games will be closely contested,
and the winners will have to play the
| best kind of ball to win.
d
The Hawaiian Gun Club will start
another tournament this afternoon for
! a cup on the Kakaako traps, commenC-
4 ing at five-thirty. Harry Whitney, who
is considered to be one of the best
shots in Hawaii, will be on hand tc
take part and will do all he can to
win the new cup. His chances seem
to be good, as he has been doing very
well lately in the clay pigeon line.
g.
The Oahu Polo Club will meet some
time tomorrow to talk over the coming
polo matches with the other island
teams. Eben Low, who is going tc
give a Wild West show during the stay
Of the fleet, is very anxious to have
polo games played at Kapiolani Park
and it is very probable that a series
Of games will be arranged.

Drink Plenty of Pure Water,

We recently printed a statement given out by MT. George Il. Taylor, of this city, or "WhistIing Taylor,n as lie k called, that many people are sick be- cause they don't drink water enough. He thinks two quarts day are neees- sary to have good health. Some per- sons were disposed, because of this ad- vice, to dub him sDoe. Taylor, some others followed his advice to drink plenty of pure water.
 Noticing an article going the rounds of the papers confirming MT. Tayler's 's views, and ascribed to "a well-known authority, We give it herewith:
 "People de not drink enough water te keep healthy. The numerous cases of stomach trouble. kidney and blad- der diseases and rheumatism, are main- ly due 10 the fact that the drinking Of water, natures greatest medicine, has been neglected.
 "Stop loading your system with pa itffl illtNltfti1> anu Cttit-dtts Etl Oil ltft water wagon. Ii you are really sick, why, of course, take the proper medi- cine-plain common vegetable treat ment, which will mol shatter the nerves or ruin the stomach.
 q"You must make the kidneys do their work-they are the filters of the blood. They be made to strain out of the blood the waste matter and acids that cause rheumatism; the urine must be neutralized so il will no longer be a source of irritation to the bladder, and most of all must keep these acids from forming in the stomach. This is the cause of stomach trouble and poor di- gestion.
 "tor these conditions 1 would sug- gest the following prescription: Fluid extract af dandelion, ene half ounce compound kargon, one ounce; com pound syrup sarsapariila, three ounces. Mix by shaking well in bottle, and take teaspoonful doses after each meal, and at bedtime-hut don | forget the water Drink plenty and often.n
 Ne de not vouch for these recon. mendniions, but they are so often re- peated, are so simple, and inexpensive, that they can be safely tested, and if the promised benefits are secured, they are priceless.

Taxation an Intricate and Vesatlous
 Question.

The present system of assessing pro perty for taxation is not only unsatis- factory but leads to misrepresentation not designedly to escape paying ones due share of the taxes, but to avoid paying more than just ,hare-beeause sthey all do it, is the excuse given. There are, however, some who will not testify 10 the vaius Of their property, but give in a correct list. telling the as- sors what was paid for il, and reanir- ing them to appraise it's value for tax alton, and thus avoid personal blame.
 IL Is a common complaint of class of taxpayers that the town tax rate k too high, and to prove 1t quote the nlne or ten mills laid on all property. adding, that such high rate fright ems people away who would like to set- tie in the town. While the fact is that property, in this town, for instance, k assessed al little more than half what il would bring at forced sale. This k proved by the additions placed on the Grand Lists in the various towns of the State hy the State Board Of Equaliza- ton for State and county taxati en. The addition thus added Is based. not on the full value of the property as sessed, but on the same estimate that the town assessors profess to make the assessment. We understand quite well thai II the assessors of our town raised the assessment and the other towns did not, our taxpayers would be assessed for State and county taxation more tkan the taxpayers Of other towns.
 The largest addition made to any one town is that of Hartford which amounts 10 sl9 no, ,an. The total additions to the entire towns of the State reach the enoImoua sum of saa,Slo,ooo.
 The additions made to the Grand Lists ei the tewas of Nindham county are as follows:
Putnam patriot., 1908-06-26

the most equal distribution of the bur den on the different individuals in pro- portion 10 their ability to pay as deter mined by the amount of property they own. Almost every one k willing to pay fair tax, providing only that he can be assured that his neighbor k pay ing at the same rate on the same basis of valuation. X low rate, a grand list on the basis of a fair value, frequent re- valuations, which will eliminate inc qualities, small amount of outstanding taxes and keeping the expenses within the income to an absolute indication of a practical business administration which is of great advantage to all tax payers. The reverse, however, as is found i'll many towns, is greatly to be depiored. high tax rate, low grand list, fragrant inequalities, an increasing debt, and too many uneolieeted taxes, are indications of inefficient business methods and are an unnecessary burden to the axpayefs.
 The whole tax problem Is made plain in the above paragraph. In regard to reValaa.ions, the Commissioner named the following towns which have made revaluations and increased their tax lists as follows:
Putnam patriot., 1908-06-26

These are specimens out of larger town list, the taxpayers knowing that the increased valuation did not increase their taxation. The President of our Business Mems Association suggests that we invite prominent men to visit our city. Commissioner Corbin should be invited here next fall or winter to speak to u> on the same subject as he did at Ninsted We ought Ia learn the folly ofihaving town or city debt without providing means to pay il otl. In the long run the taxpayer has to pay more in interest than bN inereas- ing the tax rate te provide a sinking fund. Besides, 1t hurts town to have a tong. standing debt The Commits sioner might convince the voters of our town, as he evidently has those of olh- CT towns, that il is adetriment to them to have the Stale increase our tax list one-third To make il what il should be

In their report the State Board of Equalization say: "rhe>e additions are made with an endeavor to he as fair as possible to the different towns as we'll as tc the State al large.

Twen- ty-tive towns have increased their grand lists from 10 per cent To lS per cent, the past year. hy special ressi. nation or hy the intelligent work of the assessors, with corresponding reduc- tion in the tax rate. Several other towns contemplate similar action this year.

All the towns on this list would be benefited by such action

Literary Notes.

The "Woman's Companion, for Ju- ly gives the following receipt for mak- ing double useful mucilage: If you make your own mucilage, one heaping teaspoonful of gum arabic te an ordi- nary bottle, filled with water, you can dispense with court plasters, liquid or otherwise, except where an anlisceptie Is necessary. Ordinarily cuts can be coated with this quite as effectively as with the patent preparation. Two coats thoroughly dried will stand the appli- cation of water better than anything but the adhesive .plaster doctors use an incenyenient expensive luxury.

PerpetuatiaE the Bison.

They disappeared with the advance of the eountry's settlement. Millions were slaughtered for their hides alone, as they commanded good market price, while their eareasses were allowed to rot on Inc open prairie. As their numbers were reduced to few small herds, the pot-hunters would bIe animals had mol some wealthy men of sentiment interested themselves in saving a few remnants that their race might be perpetaaied. Thus several herds were secured by private individ- uals and carefully preserved. After the Yellowstone Park wasi set of n small herd was fenced in there by the government but has failed tu thrive.
