JAPAN AND HER PLANS
TO NATIONALIST SUGAR

TOXIC, December 2s.-The twenty
fourth session of the Imperial Diet is
of much Importance by reason of the
Budget involving both increased taxa
ton and the postponement of public
enterprises. The expiry of the term of
Representatives shortly after the close
of the present session inspires conclu-
sive activity among Opposition mem
bers in particular. The Ministerial
Seiyu-kai is compelled to support the
increased taxation bill but is likely
to propose the naturalization of the
sugar industry as quid pro quo
thereof. Upon the Introduction of the
proposal, it will constitute a burning
question, as some partisans are pre-
arranging opposition based on the con-
tention that such a step would obviate
any increase of the tax on sugar under
private management, and encourage
the import Of foreign raw sugar. Re-
curing to the Budget, the Daido Club
will support it with reserve but the
Progressives will object thereto, in
view of the forthcoming general cleo
ton. AS to other questions, the Daido
Club and the Progressiyes will coope-
rate against the Seiyu-kai. The Da-
lido and Progressive parties will de-
mand an explanation of the govern
ment as to the proposed enforcement
of the increased taxation and the post
ponement of public enterprises, pro-
posed in less than one year after an
explicit declaration in favor of the
principle of no increased taxation and
no loan bonds. and may introduce a
vote of censure. The recent Prefec-
tural elections will also form subject
for impeaching Home Minister Hara.
The heterogeneous Yuko-kai will OPP
pose the increased taxation with the
Progressives, but will cooperate with
the Daido Club as we'll as the Progress
sives as to other problems.

George Yamada, who organized the

Hogan the rejected low bidder on the
materials for the Pearl Harbor FORTH
cation work, resents the implication
that he or any other japanese are
ambitious TO build any forts here.
All that we were prepared to do was
to give Hogan the backing to supply
materials, rock and sand 1 don't
know whether the material was for
forts or what it was for. There was
never any idea of building anything.
Hogan came to US and wanted
backing He talked like a man that
knew his business. and we were pre-
pared to see him through, provided
Captain Orwell would agree not TO pay
him except in our presence We didn't
know anything about Hogan and were
not anxious to put up any money for
him and then let him walk away with

CFrom Saturdays Advertiser.)

From Saturdays Advertiser.)
Fifty-two hours behind her schedule
the Royal Mail liner Miowera from the
! Colonies locked at the foot of Fort
street yesterday. She brings fourteen
passengers for this port and has a
through list of one hundred and twenty
two, number of whom are booked for
California points. Among her steerage
passengers are several land seekers en-
route to the wheat fields of Western
Canada.
The Miowera had fair freight car
go, discharging ninety-two tons of gen
eral merchandise here. A good part
of her load consists of nine hundred tons
of sugar, taken on at Suva fer the
Vancouver refinery. 1t is due to the
loading of this sugar and also to rough
weather that the delay in her arrival
occurred. Frozen mutton to the ex-
tent of 1893 carcasses are also in the
liners hold.
This is her last round trip on
the Vancouver run, her farewell visit to
Honolulu to be paid on her return TO
the Colonies. Her place on the run will
be taken by the Mariana, a new seven
Thousand ton, twin screw steamship just
commissioned by the Union Steamship
Company. Because of her early taking
off from the run the American passen-
ger license for the Miowera had not
been renewed and no passengers will be
taken on here. 1t is probable that some
of the present officers of the Miowera
will be transferred to the Mariana.
Purser Hocknell will be for one, a well
come bit of news, Mr.. Hocknell being
one of the most popular men in the pur-
sers' offices of the visiting liners.
The hour of departure of the Miowera
was posted on her arrival as O'Clock
this morning, but it is unlikely that she
will sail much before noon, having near
" six hundred tons of csal to take on
here
