The Council

The Colonial Council met yesterday
to continue the unfinished business and
to consider some new legislation
Mr. Harry Taylor, acting Lieutenant
Governor and Mr.. Alnert Fabio, Assls-
tant to the Lieutenant Governor were
present at the meeting
ALTO there was no quorum The
Chairman said that at the previous
meeting he had announced his intention
to adjourn the meeting when the bell
rang and there was no quorum. he was
asked to wait few minutes. after which
other members entered the hall and the
meeting was started.
The first item on the Order of the
Day vas a draft of ordinance to amend
Colonial Council Bill No. "a. so that al
cohol would be placed in the same cate
xory with alcoholic beverages for thepur-
pose of taxation.
Mr. R, de Chaberr said that the Di-
rector of Police had information to the
effect that there was heavy lmDorta-
ton of alcohol into the Virgin Islands
The alcohol. being of American origin
entered here duty free, and not being
included in the class OF alcoholic beve-
verages was free from excise tax. This
enabled the importers OF alcohol to &C.
quire il cheap and IL soeon reaches chan
nels through which it is used for beve-
rage purposes. The Alcohol Control
Board held meeting recently and de-
decided that the racket was so wide
spread and serious as to warrant an ex-
traordinary meeting of the Council TO
consider remedial legislation.
For the protection of the poor people
who are unknowingly consuming this
copcoctiun of alcohol. which 10 detrimen-
tai to them in more ways than one. the
speaker urged that the council go into
the matter seriously.
The Chairman spoke at length on the
Bill. He was in perfect harmony with
the amendment, but is went to prove
lthat the alcohol control Bill was too
hastily passed or il could never
be found to need amendment so soon.

Random Notes

Bills for post office box rent for the
qusrior ending December 81. 1884 are
being issued today. add should ne paid
by clo-e of business September Both.
The postmaster asks to bring TO atten-
ton tn 1T these bills are intended not
only 10 remind boxholders to pay the
rent but to serve as a receipt when pay
lnent is made, on which account they
should be presented at that time. So
many boxhoders come to pay box rent
without the bill and request a new re-
ceipt it would seem tina: the instructions
printed on the back of the form are not
read or understood II WILL therefore
be appreciated If b ,xholdars will tender
their bills to be receipted when paying
the rent.

sion the Bill was referred to a commit
tee.

charges necessary and would ratnef see
all such other amendments brought in at
the same time rather than making this
amendment now and. still have to come
with further amendments.
Mr. JOS Alexander expressed himself
in sympathy with he amendment. IL
was a situation tnat must be taken in
hand but he cri'lciz ID the alcohol con-
troll bill as setting up conditions insult
able to the island. He suggested that
the Bill of amendment be 81 omitted TO
committee who would bring in other
amendments that would make the
alcohol Control bill more acceptable.
MIR Brow moved for the passage Of
the proposed amendm nj. but he thought
that the ru Jaws recently passed
should be given lrlal. he had no regret
that he had voted for The alcohol control
bill
Mr.. Pentheny argued for the Dassage
of the ame ndment TO harness the illegal
sale Of alcohol connections, and said he
W s only sorry the Council dill not give
the Government the monopoly of the
sale of all liquor.
Dr. Canegata said that more time
should have been given ouncil Bill No. "a,
the alcohol bill and he read certain Sec
tions which he thought were not clear.
Every speaker desired to put check
to the alcohol menace. Some thought
that Immediate action should be taken
by passing the proposed amendment.
Others preferred TO delay the amend
ment for the purpose of Introducing fur
ther amendments.
Mr.. R. de Chabert said that as re-
preventative of the people he had brought
this very serious matter 10 the atten.
ton of the Council. The poor people
should be protected against 'lnscrupu-
Ious persons who were flooding
the island with cheap alcohol and
ruping the health of the populace. Since
the Council admitted that action was
necessary but was not prepared to- act
Immediately he would withdraw the
bill and he asked the Council to consider
it withdrawn.
Several members expressed regret and
asked that committee go into the mat
ter.
The Chairman said he was sorrys but
the bill was withdrawn. II was not be-
fore the Council and nothing could be
done.
A bill for the protection of wild life
was introduced by DR.. d. G. Canegata
who gave some sound reasons as to
the need of such protective laws.
some argument ensued and the bill
was submitted to committee.
Mr.. DIS. Armstrong introduced Bill
providing for governing device on
omnibuses and passenger carrying trucks
limiting their speed 20 30 miles per
hour. The speaker spoke of the racing
