not forgotten how the diSpensary was

The life trustees Of Clemson college
have established a rule to require a
unanimous election in filing vaean-
cies. When a member dies his sue
cessor must receive the vote of every
remaining member. This rule will al
ways insure the election of first class
men on the board It has done so
heretofore. for the new life members
Of the board will compare we'll with
the trustees elected by the legislature.
The legislature has not always acted
wisely in tie election Of trustees Of
the college, as is illustrated by the re-
cent newspaper cavortings Of enc Of
their number.
The life members Of the board are
citizens of the State, and always will
be, and are quite as much interested
in the welfare Of the State and of the
college as men elected by the legisla-
tme could possibly be. There could
be no inducement for them to be ac-
tuated by any other motives than the
good Of the college and the good OF
the State. The legislature elects SIX
members, and these six men can al
ways prevent abuses, if such should
creep in. And the majority of the
board being life members can always
prevent abuses or open attacks by
the legislature, in the eevnt of a
change Of government or unforeseen
political contingencies.
There may be something .rong at
Clemson, and shaking up may be
needed. But the plan suggested is
the wrong way to 60 at it. The plan
Of having life urtstees was about the
wisest thing in Mr.. Clemson's will,
and that plan should be adhered to,
even if the State decides to give back
to the Calhoun family the whole Of
the Fort Hill property and establish
new college plant Of its own.
The real friends Of Clemson college
should vigorously oppose the demand
that is being made for the election of
all the trustees by the legislature. No
GOOD end could be accomplished by
the change, and there is the possibi-
ity of much danger in it.

We reproduce in today's paper an

Mr.. W. P. Calhoun, who was editor
of defunt newspaper at Edgefeld.
Mr.. Calhoun's animus is plain. All

They bitterly resent that his name
should be perpetuated in connection

There has been strong opposition to

two reasons for this. Clemson col

Ben Tillman had much to do with its
establishment. Some people will al

Another reason is that Clemson was
established against the protests of
those interested in the older State

D|sRE GARDED HIS
PUBLIC PLEDGE
The Civic Federation Discusses
Quinn's Support of the
Liquor Bill.

In protest against the action of the
yesterday afternoon on its second read
ing the Civic Federation held general
meeting late in the day. The meeting
endorsed the protest which the Legis-
lative Committee has made against the
Moore bill.
The protest against the Senate's ae
ton yesterday was in the form of
resolution deploring such action. The
attention of the Legislative and Public
Service Committee was also called to
the situation of member of the Sen
ate-Quinn, in partieuiar-votlng IN
favor of the bill and with the back
ers of the liquor bill, when he had
pledged himself in the Republican cor
vention to abide by the present liquor
law.
1t is understood that this action of
the Civic Federation may bring about
a general discussion as to what ele-
ment of guaranty there is in man 5
pledge made before a convention of
his fellows and party-workers, which he
then deliberately denies and places
himself on record as opposed to the
upholding of pledge.
Tt is also understood that The dis
cussion may go so far as to determine
whether or not this will not weaken
the party as political factor in III
ture campaigns and legislative mat
tiers.
At this meeting of the federation
there was long discussion as to
whether the list of the members If
the organization should be made pup
lie. The matter was finally disposed
of by concluding TO take postal cad
vote on the question.

WOULD CHANCE THE
TAX OFFICE PERSONNEL

Should the tax offices have a corps
of older and better trained men to levy
taxes on the taxable property of this
Territory
The query was answered in the af-
frmative yesterday afternoon at ses-
sion of the Merchants Association by
Z. FL. Paris. The report of special
committee of which he was member,
and presented at meeting last week,
was read again yesterday, relating to
the non-collection of taxes and license
fees.
In commenting on the report Mr..
Paris said that he has been impressed
for sometime with the idea that the
men employed in the tax office are not
old enough to begin with to properly
assess the property of the Territory,
and that they do not use sufficient dill
genee in trying to collect the taxes as
assessed, or the license fees for carry
ing on business. In both divisions there
are large amounts which have not been
collected.
Mr.. Paris believed that the tax Of
fee men should be older and more thor
oughly conversant with the value of
property.

RUBBER SHOES
DID NOT HELP
Senatorial Committee Inspects
the Nuuanu Dam Under
Difficulties.

With the water in the Nuuanu dan
rising rapidly, and the smile OF
TBrick'' Whitehouse s face broaden
ing IN relative proportion, the Senate
committee having in hand the Nuuanu
dam matter visited the great hole yes
terday afternoon and had the time Of
their lives.
When they arrived at the dam it was
in a driving rain. They looked out
over the sheet of water and could
barely discern the engine-hous for
with the rising of the waters it had
been engulfed So, too, with. the tun-
mel. It's location could only be deter
mined by the whirlpool suction which
appeared in the lake.
The members had to make a closer
inspection of some of the works, and
after looking over section found to
their dismay that the water had risen
and partially cut off their retreat. Sen
ator Chillingworth, who had thought
fully bought a pair of rubbers before
going up to the dam, looked doubtfulIy
at them and then plunged in up TO his
waist. Senator Knudsen asked for a
boat. but was told that the Intef-Tsland
had not established connections there
yet. and he also had TO wade.
81 never saw SO much water come
down in a short time as up there in
that dam seetion,' observed Senator
Chillingworth.

To MAKE ALL
Pay LICENSE
Merchants Association to Draft
Bill to Cover Some
Delinquents.

The Merchants Association yesterday
afternoon authorized the officers of the
association to employ counsel to draft
a bill along the lines presented in the
report of special committee with ref
erence to manufacturers agents license
fees, for submission to the chairman
of the Finance Committee of the Sem
ate, with the request that that com
mittee call upon any of the association
members for information as to the in.
tent and purpose of the bill.
The special report was presented by
George w. Smith and G. G. Won Hamm
and contained scale for license fees
to carry on business, both retail and
wholesale, and is aimed to compel
manufacturers agents and commission
brokers to pay, the statement being
made that at present there are sixteen
agents and brokers who pay absolute
ly no license fee, while seven do.
In support of the report, which called
for fee of 800 for business involv-
ing SIS, 900 worth of stock or over, and
$3.50 for business involving stock under
$4,000 or no stock at all, Mr.. Smith
said the object of this was to reach
a class which is not now contributing
to the public treasury. There were
twentv-shree persons engaged in the
soliciting of orders for houses on the
mainland of whom only six or seven
paid licenses to the treasury. The
goods handled by these brokers and
manufacturers agents are not billed di.
rect to the purchasers. They are con-
signed to the agent or brker and billed
by the latter to the purchaser. That,
however, in his opinion, constituted a
sale of merchandise in direct. competi-
ton with merchants who are paying
taxes and is a form of competition that
is unjust.
There was considerable discussion on
the proposed measure, concluding with
the adoption of a motion offered by

POUNDMASTERs
ARE APPOINTED
Supervisors Approve Bonds and
Discuss Paper Litter
on Streets.
=

Bonds of the Honolulu road super
visor and two of the road overseers of
country districts were presented and
approved by the Board of Supervisors
last night. The question of approving
or referring the bonds first to the
County Attorney was discussed and in
volyed the Supervisors in a tangle of
uncertainty, which was finally settled
by the board voting to approve the
bonds.
The report of the special committee,
comprising Mayor Fern, Deputy City
Attorney Milverton and Supervisor
Quinn, set the bond of the Honolulu
road supervisor at $4,000 and those of
the overseers at $1,000. Bonds of.WiI-
son, Paele and Kukea of Waialua were
the ones presented and approved.
The City Attorney rendered an opin-
ion to the effect that the Board of
Supervisors had the power to appoint
the poundmasters. The Mayor stated
that in view of this opinion he had not

ton, as he had expected to do, but

in the matter. Supervisor Logan found
list of the old poundmasters on his

BOYD HAS REVENGE
AND IS PAID ALSO

Robert N. Boyd loves his country
too much to see it get the worst of it
over the Nuuanu dam or any other
place. A great deal of his great aloha
has developed since he was fred a
short time ago from the Department of
Public Works, but it grew strong
enough about that time to drive him
to members of the Legislature to tell
them where the money was going in
the Nuuanu dam work. He appeared
before the special committee investi-
eating the dam and told them a great
many things that he had been able
to learn while employed in the Public
Works Department, but which had not
struck him in all their Nervousness
until the department decided to get
along without his services.
Before that committee he offered to
get the data and evidence to support
his charges. He was told to go ahead.
1t would never do to allow such pa
triotism to be checked by appearing to
think that it was not important.
Boyd got busy and has presented a
report for the committee, as straight
as some of the lines he ran on Maui
and about as long. He was thanked by
the legislators, but yesterday there ap-
peared a bill before the committee to
be o. K. ed. It was from Mr.. Boyd
for services rendered. His giddy pa
triotism had not carried him to the
point where he could afford to get even
with his superiors for firing him with
out being paid. The members OF the
speeial committee allowed the bill, but
they are doing a lot of thinking
about it.

SENATE CARRIES OUT
PLAN TO RECONSIDER
LIQUOR AMENDMENTS
Moore bill Is BrazenIy
Forced Through on
Its Second Reading.

The liquor interests that are behind
the Moore amendments to the existing
law controlling the liquor traffic made
a desperate and successful effort yes
terday morning to force the bill, as
amended by the Ways and Means Com
mittee, past second reading, in the
territorial Senate.
The postponement Of the bill secured
Thursday by the opposition, led by
Senators w. o. Smith and George Fair
child, was nullifed and now the meas
ure of the whisky ring will come up
on third reading Wednesday.
Three of the Senators that voted
with Smith and Fairchild Thursday
saw fit to capitulate and go over to
the support of the Moore amendments
The three members of the upper house
that changed their stripes yesterday
were Senators Quinn, Makekau and
Baker, all three of whom supported
Senator Smith s motion for postpone
ment Thursday.
After the action taken Thursday the
liquor men decided that they could on
ly save. the bill by taking the sole
course left to them in the emergency
by whipping enough Senators into
line to assure majority vote. on g
motion to reconsider the action OF
postponement. This was agreed upon
and Quinn, Baker and Makekau were
pledged to support the bill-a remark
able and sudden change from the posi-
ton they had assumed by voting fol-
postponement Thursday afternoon.
BY the rules of the Senate the mo
ton to reconsider had to be made by
a member that voted with the majority
and Makekau was decided upon as the
spokesman-h his motion to be seconded
by Quinn.
This plan was carried out, as was
predicted in the Advertiser yesterday

THIS LEGISLATURE
AND THE LAST ONE

Yesterday was the twentieth day of
the session of the Legislature. As
compared with the first twenty days
of the last Legislature, there have
been twenty more bills introduced in
the Senate and seven fewer in the
House. The Governor has signed seven
more bills than Governor Carter did
during the first twenty days of the
last Legislature. To make up for it,
though, Governor Carter had vetoed
three measures, while Governor Frear
has not as yet vetoed any.

ed to show that Congress was not run

ment.
He agreed with the Supreme Court
