sustained" Such is the syllabus of
an opinion of the Supreme Court, writ

of Makee Sugar Co. from the tax APP
peal court of Kauai. w "A. Kinney
appeared for the taxpayer, and Dep
uty Attorney General w. l.. Whitney
for the tax assessor.
The company's return was $3.50, $780,

and the tax appeal courts 100000. In
the pleadings the Governments long
controversy with Makee Sugar Co. re-
lative to the leases of land is brought
in. The court says the property was
properly assessed on the enterprise
for profit theory. 1t makes the fol-
lowing statement of facts:
"The plantation conducted by the
taxpayer is situated on Kauai, is an
irrigated one, it's average annual crop
for the eight years preceding 1908 be-
ing 1854 tons, the yield per acre vary
ing from 1900 to 1907 having been a
little over $4,000. The yield for19OS
was estimated to be about 1900 tons

that year of about $4,000. The plan
tation is a well managed one and
run economically without having any
agent. The capital stock is 100000

ported. About one-half of the avail

THE ROADS APr Coon.

Good roads are enticing the owners
of motor cars to Haleiwa. There Is
an entire absence of mud and dust
after leaving the city and the ride is
most enjoyable. Manager Bidgood
reports frequent visits from the officers
of Camp Leilehua. Golf and bathing
continue the popular features of the
hotel aside from the excellent cuisine
Those who are not the owners of autos
may hire them for the ride or take the
train to the door-either is good
enough for the average man.

TOUCHES
THE KAPPA LANOS

May 1, 1908, during which time nego-
tiations in regard to the continuation
of the use of the land on new terms
were being carried on by the taxpay-
err and the government. On January
1. 1908, the date Of the assessment,
it was uncertain how these negotia-
lions would turn out. The testimony
taken before the tax appeal court in
August, 1908, showed that the negotia-
lions between the government and the
taxpayer had been broken off and the
land had been returned to the lessor.
1t was the opinion of the manager Of
the plantation that with the reduced
amount of land the annual crop here
after would not exceed $500 tons,
which at the most and under extreme
" favorable circumstances would not
return a net profit of more than $780,
600, it being also his opinion, how
ever, that there would be no profit at
all. He further testified that a plan
tation that did not pay ten per cent.
annually for five years running was
not worth buying. The fee simple
lands owned by the plantation are a
little more valuable for cane than the
leased lands of the government. The
assessment as agreed to by the COM
pany was in 1905 $1,4OO,OO, the reduc-
tions. since then, according to the as
SCISSOR, having been partly on account
of these expiring leases from the gov
eminent. The assessor testified that
in his opinion even with the reduced
area of land the plantation could be
run at a profit He also testified that

SITUATION IS BAD
(American News Service)

(American News Service)
Hartford City. Sept 1S-The strike
of the cutters and flatteners of the
American Window Glass company
took on most serious aspect this
morning, when forty-eight of the strik
breakers arrived from Chicago to take
the place of the strikers. Local labor
leaders met the strike breakers at the
depot and explained the situation with
the result that the imported men refus-
ed to go to work on learning the facts.
When return transportation to Chica-
60 was purchased for them by Manager
Jacmain, they refused to accept it I'M
less they were paid for the two days
lost in coming here and returning to
Chicago. On the refusal of Jacmain
to meet these demands, matters took
on dangerous look. Not one of the
imported men went to work. The
strikebreakers were mingling with
locked out laborers and trouble is an
ticipated.
