TAKE YOUR MONEY WITH you

The Probate Clerk and ex.oficio re
corder has received a copy Of the las,
session acts, and among other things
that the last session VI the Legislature
did, was TO make some new laws, and
make amendments to many that are
nov on the statute books.
One Of the latest one- 10 come 20
the knowledge Of the local officials, il
that il is illegal for any probate clerk,
or ex.otieio recorder 10 receive any
paper to be filed, until the filing fee
is paid. They all look alike to Neigh
Dor Gayle, and while he il not here,
the business Of the office is conducted
just on the same principles as if he
was here. The first ease 20 be pass
ed upon was that Of one NJ the local
banks, which had been In the habit Of
sending over mortgages for filing, and
asking that the recorder send in bill
for the same. They were told that
their credit was just as good as II had
ever been, but that there was a change
in the law, and that for fear a techni
cal point might come up, and that
some one who had taken a second
mortgage on property might come in
and claim that under the law, IL the
first hling fee was not paid, the SEE
ond one would he given preference,
that they would treat every one alike
and it was best for them TO send al
ing fees with every instrument. SO
for the benefit Of the many readers Of
the Register. Tribune II Is safe TO say
that any papers sent by mail TO be
filed will not he 6led unless the fling
fee accompanies such papers.-Regis

A CAMPAIGN ron rNcoMs TAXA
TON.


The Senate has adopted unanimous.
ly the resolution providing for an
amendment 10 the Constitution that
will empower Congress 20 levy aud col.
lect a tax upon incomes, aud II is
practically certain that the House Of
Representatives will do likewise. The
Secretary II State will then transmit
the proposed amendment to the Legis.
lature Of the forty.six States, three.
fourths, or thirty Ave, Of which must
rstify 1t to incorporate IL in u fun.
damental law. IL has been believed
for u long time that no amendment
could obtain the requisite number Of
consents, and many Of the Senators
who voted for the resolution did SO
in full expectation that more than
eleven State Legislatures will refuse
to ratify. In 30 far a. understood the
News does not favor an income tax
except In case Of wal or other extreme
emergencies, nor do we believe IL will
meet the approval Of the American
people, except under such conditions.
However, w believe it is well to sub.
init the question TO the vote Of states
for the proposed change in the con
stituti5n, ss whatever the great mass
" the people Of this government de.
sires, We should have. the opportunity
NJ n hearing on the amendment il the
least that should he given since the
demand is 50 universal. The News
leans considerably TO the idea Of tho
land tax rs advocated by our worthy
contemporary Will Robinson Of the
Roswell Register Tribune which he has
been preaching for the past fifteen
years to a large constituency in New
Mexico, and II We are TO have another
plan, that of the tariff ON imports as
advocated by the republican party is
probably as good as any other. IL "A
protective tariff does anything for the
wage scale Of the laboring man, rs Il is
claimed II does, IL must be a safe and
a u policy, and II it has been the
greatest factor in the building Of this
great nation Of industries, there seems
little reason that extreme measures
should be resorted to in times like
these, when the nation a. a whole is
prosperous. The News holds TO the
opinion Of many other newspapers OF
the country, that II Mr.. Taft's tariff
congress would only adjourn, no matter
what the tarif schedules may be, IL
would be the greatest boon that could
happen us. II is only the unsettled
condition Of business hat hurts, the
uncertainty hanging like a halo around
great enterprises hat may be affect,
ed by a change in tariff schedules
that are inactive because of possible
changes in articles manufactured or
handled by them that causes the
trouble. The country can adjust itself
TO whatever tariff schedule that may
be agreed upon, but il can I do much
with tariff congress. We sometimes
think the country would be better of
II congress would meet only about
once in four years. II takes sometime
to recover from the fright that each
succeeding congress gives the business
interests Of the nation, and adjourn.

universal desire of the American PEG.

Editor Advertiser: After reading
the article in this mornings paper,
copied from the Hawaii Shinpo, the
management of the Susannah Wesley
Home desires to make this brief re-
spouse, in order that both our Japa-
nese and American friends may be
set to rights, if need be.
During our stay, of going on to three
years, there have been obtained but
two divorces by women in the home.
In both instances we have had moth
ing whatever to do in the matter,
either as regards securing legal help
or using our personal aid in bringing
them about.
In both of the eases just referred to,
the women We're sent to us by heads
servants, and for their protection from
brutal husbands.
In every case where a woman has
come to us for help, when upon care
full investigation the husband has
proven to be a decent man, we have
used our influence to bring about a
reconciliation.
On the contrary, when a woman
comes to us with her face bruised al
most beyond recognition, after serving
a man as his slave for years, working
until / and 2 O'Clock in the morning,
and, after failure to borrow money for
him. receives such treatment as has

Then, when the man in question has
the temerity to publish a threat to

these poor unfortunate women. with
their ignorance of our laws of Justice

We are in touch with, and freouent-
ly consult, Japanese friends and mis-
sionaries regarding the wisest course to
pursue when occasion requires. Our
work here has the nature of a. go-be-
tween or peacemaker, rather than that
of stirring up strife or adding to it.
While the case which has been cited
may not often be exactly duplicated
there are others which might prove a
surprise to many On the other hand
there are eases where the woman is
found most at fault. Believing
