MAY READOUI

mittee, and a member of the board Of
supervisors ] intend making motion
to read the three supervisors. Petrie
Markham, and Mcclellan out of the
party at the meeting Of the COMMITTEES
tomorrow night. Nothing short OF thai
will be sufficient punishment for the
failure Of these men. to obey the spirit
and letter Of the pledge they all took
when they received their nominations
at the hands of the convention and
Democratic party last summer.
AT that time they signed o pledge
to abide by the rules of the party and
to accept all recommendations OF the
county committee on questions of pat
Fonage. This pledge they have wiifully
and deliberately violated, not once but
several times, and they maintain their
attitude of indifference to the recon-
mendations Of the county committee,
and the demands Of the rank and file
of the party they are supposed to be
representing on the board.
From q purely non-partisan stand
point there is. nothing to be said
against this attitude of the three, but
from q party mans point Of view on
a straight party platform, by an cleo
torate that desired q change, We are
bound to give the city and county q
partizaIl administration. The obligar
tons incurred by all candidates elect
ed on the. Democratic ticket are equal
and are not to be avoided by honor
able men,.
1t Is also stated that the members
of the special patronage committee,
appointed by the county COMMITTEES, on
a motion of Soapbox BARRON, Is In.
censed by the. refusal Of the "insur-
gents to heed the Recommendations
of Whittenore and Carter for the post
lions held by Whitehouse and Thurs
ton. In yiew4of the fact that four Of
the seven members Of the patronage
committee were not members Of the
county committee: the action Of the
insurgents is regarded as q direct slap
at the whole Bourbon party in Oahu.
All of which indicates that the split
in the. Democratic ranks, predicted by
this paper some days ago; already has
come about. -
l. 80 we are to be read out of the
Democratic party" snorted Supervisor
Markham this morning, when told of
the statement made by Pacheco,
well, I'm glad of it. Pacheco and
that lot are anxious to get US out be-
cause We will not submit to dictation
from them. That's all there is to this
last tempest in the teapot"
ooh, they are going to read MeClel-
Ian, Markham and Petrie out Of the
party, are. they?' grunted the mayors
private secretary, William Miles.
well, you can say to Mr.. Pacheco that
he is not running the county commit
tee, much as he may think he Is and
that the committee will not hear Of
such action. Why, he's crazy"

WHARF WASTE Barred

I Hilo. All of this new work will be Of
! solid, permanent construction. The
| HilO wharf authorized by the last
! Legislature is OF wood construction
but there viii be no more of this kind
Of construction if the harbor board
carries out its present determination

wharf sites at Hilo and kahului, the
| three sites mentioned in Honolulu be
| ing the only ones where an outlay is
| required.
Tonnage Tax Plan Favored
! Another big feature OF the pans
talked over yesterday is that of put
! ting the wharves on a self-sustaining
basis. Some time ago the Star-Bulle-
tin announced that the harbor board
had taken up and approved a plan for
charging a tonnage tax on Hawaiian
cargoes. This plan has been adopted
by the board with the provision that
il should be referred to the CONNER
cial bodies of the islands, as it in
TolveS the commercial interests d.
rectly.
Governor Frear approves the plan,
it was said after the conference yes
terday Commissioner James Wake
field, who was appointed special
committee OF one to take up this
matter and whose report was submit
ed and adopted some time ago, said
this morning that il the wharves are
placed on a self-sustaining basis, the
territory in twenty years can pay for
the construction cost, the maintenance
and still have the, splendid permanent
wharves as a public asset.
The details. of the plan have not
been entirely worked out. For in
stance, the tonnage tax may be charg=
ed only On incoming cargoes, in
which case something like ten cents
4 ton would be imposed. If charged
on both incoming and outgoing car
goes, the tax might be. five cents
ton.
Shippers Wharf Tax.
Involved in this plan is the abandon
meht. by the commercial interests
here OF, the shippers, wharf tax, a vol
untary tribute paid by merchants on
incoming cargoes. This tax was plac-,
ed unofffcially by the commercial in
terests to provide an emergency fund
in case of epidemic and to furnish
funds for promotion and similar work.
In case the tonnage tax plan is adopt
ed, the board favors doing away with
the unofficial shippers wharf tax.
The question of the legal ability Of
the territory to impose tonnage tax
has come up, and the harbor board
has asked an opinion from Attorney
general Wade Warren Thayer. He
has not yet had time to formulate an
opinion, but the commissioners pri-
vately express confidence that the
territory can impose this tax. 1t is
pointed out that California has adopt
ed similar plan. -~-..; 49, i
From now until the legislature con-
yenes the board of harbor commits
sioners, the atterney-general and the
governor will be busy whipping the

data and recommendations into shape
for the solons to consider. \Governor
Frear. it is expected, will make his
recommendations on the subject in
his opening message. Bills will be
drafted to carry out the plans for the
undertaking. One of the things TO be
done Immediately is to draft q bill
putting the WharVes on a self-sustain-
ing and independent basis.
In the amount of money involved
and the radical changes in public
policy that will be made, the board
plans as indicated yesterday consti-
tute the largest single undertaking
that the Territory has considered for
a long time
Other Matters Taken Up.
Objections and suggestions for mo-
difications, made by the owners Of
launches, who were backed by Cap
tain Weeden, of the Matson steamship
Lurline, caused a delay yesterday in
the adoption of the proposed regula-
tons governing the movement of yes
sells in Honolulu harbor, and a num-,
Der of changes will be made in the
rules. They were referred back to
Harbormaster Foster for revision in
several clauses.
The launch owners objected strenu-
onsly to the clause limiting the speed
If small craft within the harbor to five
the tugboats and the diminutive YES
endorsing their protest, declared thar
tie tugboats and 9th erdiminutive yes
sells. do not have sufficient draugnt to
c,Dca n Doo>, M emotion don0arOuc tn
other traffic, even though they might
tie racing at fifteen miles an hour.
The harbor commission finally con-
scented to raise the speed limit for
small vessels from FIVE to ten miles an
hour Harbor Master Foster explain
ed that his idea in asking for the rule
is to check the racing which the Jap
anese sampans INDUCED daily. They
leave their mooring near the Young
tugboat house every day, he asserted,
and. race. for the head OF the harbor,
several abreast, their
speed endangering other craft which
may be moving about at the time.
Captain Weeden also backed the
tugboat owners in their objection. tt
the clause intended to force all sail.
ing vessels using lows. to have tie
tows alongside, instead of ahead. The.
harbor master wanted this rule to
stop the making of flying berths,
which he said frequently resulted c:s-
astrously to other shipping and to tht,
piers.
The owners claim that owing to the
congested condition along various
piers at certain times 1t is impossi-
BILE for a sailing ship and her tow to
draw up abreast in slip, and that
the only way of making the berth is
by the flying switch method. Cap
tain Weeden explained that this sys-
tenn is as old as the history of ships
and is employed everywhere. The har;-
bormaster was instructed to revise
the regulations. in this. regard.
No other. bid being received for
