WILL NOT EXEMPT
PAHOA FROM
TAXATION

The house this morning tabled DIR.
Twins house bill PA, which would
have exempted the Pahoa Lumber
Company, and possibly one or two mi
nor concerns in the islands, from tax
alton for the next five years Its dis
cussion afforded another vent for
pent-up oratroy.
S. S. Paxson became caustically
critical. He remarked that it 3eemed
this legislature was Inclined to reduce
all revenues and increase eleemosy-
nary expenditures. He didn't use ex-
actly those words, however He added
that possibly this was due the feeling
that a Democratic era is pending and
that possibly the wise solons feared
the discretion of a Bourbon admins
tration: he favored leaving some OPP
portunity to the Democrats, that their
powers of discretion might at least be
given a test.
Moreover he said, remember that
just now the. people of the territory
are making it known that they are
opposed to taxation for revenue only"
He let it be known that he was for
ninst" the bill. The introducer openly
admitted it was intended primarily to
aid the Pahoa Lumber Company, re
Gently afflicted with devastation by
fire and now struggling to its feet
again. The fact that its loss was to-
tally uncovered by insurance, said
Paxson, should not be mitigating
circumstance. -. r..
The firm had the privilege CT insur-
ing, but declined because the rate was
high. Had it been insured it's loss
would not have been So burdensome
and the fact that it declined this form
of self-protection argued lack Of bust
ness Judgment, he declared. The gov
eminent should not be expected to
come to the aid of concerns who suffer
great losses for such reasons. Vs..
DR.. Irwin, Lyman, Kaniho and sew
eral Hawaiians of the Democratic
faith favored the report OF the minor
ity of the agricultural committee,
which recommended the passage Of
the bill; but the majority report, al
vising it be tabled, was finally adopt
ed by a show of hands .
Fear of the fatal pocket veto,'' by
which the chief executive may side
track measures he does not approve
was instilled into the minds OF the rep
reSentatives this morning by Speaker
Holstein, when the house voted TO re-
commit H. B. 206, relating to- the sale
OF intoxicating liquors, pack to the
health and police committee
The speakers comment, as the bill
was sent back, was brief but cogent;
Such action on important measures
at this time is dangerous; it some
times means pocket veto" This re-
called to the minds CT the solons that

II is hard to say whether it is be-
cause "uplift work" is being carried
on all over the United States that so
many women are coming to the front
and are holding municipal offices or
because women are coming to the
front that the uplift work is being
carried on. The opinion of the pub
lie seems to be divided.
The Sanitation Bureau of Cleye-
land, Ohio. is becoming famous all
over the country because of the mar
Vicious work it has accomplished.
For several years this bureau has
carried on its work without a chief
and twenty-eight policemen or rather
men who look and dress like police
men worked diligently. Over year
ago a chief, Miss Mildren Chadsey, a
mere slip of a girl, was appointed
TO the position of chief of the Bureau
of Sanitation for the City of Cleve-
land.
The hardy old men on the santa
ton force objected to being ruled by
a woman but when they saw her and
found that she was TO be a friend
they relented and now when they
want raise in salary they go to her
and when they want to borrow money
she is the bank.
Miss Chadsey did not get this POI
eition because she was an active club
woman but because the cleaning of
cities was her chosen life work. From
early girlnood she studied for 1t and
.ool, a cnpniaI course in the JJQiyer-
sity of Chicago which enabled her to
carry on the work she had chosen.
When she graduated from the uni
versity she looked for a place in
which to work and selected Cleveland
because she thought the mayor would
sbe more favorable to the sort of
work she was prepared to do.
When the dance hall committee of
Cleveland decided that all of the
dance xhalls should be investigated
they selected Miss Chadsey as the
one best fitted for the work. They

curing for them the three-cent car
fare. AS tenement inspector she won
much praise and when the Cleveland
board of health decided that the
Bureau of Sanitation needed a chief

The suggestion was greeted with ap

Since that time she has had the
bake-shops investigated and has had
a number of the bakers put out OF
commission. The restaurants too she
looked into and caused a thorough
house-cleaning in that pact of Cleve,
land.
In three years she has accomp-
1ished wonders and the residents of
Cleveland with the board of health
feel that they were more than fortil-
nate in having been chosen by Miss
Chadsey as the people with whom she
should work.

HUI NALUS

The Hui Nalu dance given last
Saturday evening was a decided sue.
cess both socially and financially.
Every ticket that was put on sale was
disposed of and while there were
three other dances on that evening
the dancing pavilion attthe Outrfgger
Club was comfortably filled. The
decoration committee displayed care
and skill Black and gold, the club
colors, were in evidence and black
and gold streamers intertwined, were
festooned from each corner to the
center of the pavilion where a huge
basket filled with yellow chrysanthe-
NUNS was suspended above two Hui
Nalu penants The decorations were
a surprise to most everyone for bene-
fit dances as rule are devoid of
ornaments.
A number of society folk including
a few members of the army and navy
set were among those present Those
who helped to make the affair sue
cess were Mr. Alex May, Mr.. Dude"
Miller, Mr.. VIII King, Mr. Francis
Evans, Mr.. Kaniau Evans and Mr..

The music was of the best and was
contributed by the members of the
Hun Nalu Quintet Club lead by
Dude miller. The second dance of
the series will be given in the near
future, probably in the early part of
