TAXES down

The supervisors of the County OF
Maui have seen the advantage to the
tax payers of the new tax law and By
carefully revising their estimates
have reduced their needs so that the
rate in their county will be greatly
lowered as compared with the rate OF
last year.
Instead of holding to the 2,3 of one
per cent of the last assessed valua-
ton Of the real and3personal property
of the Valley Isle, they have cut their
demand down to a shade less than
the 2-3 and so the rate for 1913 will
be about S1.10 on the hundred-dolllr
valuation instead of S1.15 as it was
last year, and not -S1.1S at is would

During his college course the young

War. Gen. Armstrong turned to peace.

work for the Indians. This great dual
work was continued until his death,

Eager to serve; and found the open door.

Stirred by the mighty conflicts high appeal,
He buckled on his sword with flaming zeal,
Not in the strife to win soldiers bays,
But up from lowlest lot the oppressed to raise

Back from the field returned to peaceful ways.

To train the darkened mind the heart, the hand.
