LABUAN NOTES.

"(From Our Own Correspondent.) ·

LABUAN, January 17th, Our New Year's, gifts have come in fast and thick in the shape of over legislation and over taxation; calamities apparently harmonizing with the Chartered Company's administration Such drastic measures as those now sprung upon us without any warning we are not prepar ed for, neither is the Colony in the humour to calmly accept them. These continued encr oachments of the Chartered Company on the liberties and privileges of this Colony are be coming intolerable and are causing a feeling of unrest amongst the inhabitants who bore not forgotten the halcyon days of Colonial Office rule, which whatever, its faults and de- fects had at least a continuity of policy-not absolutely the autocratic will of one man who might have an overdose of spleen and whose acts, however erratic, are bound to have the support of the Directors at home so long as they tend to lecrease revenue...

was it a "clerical error" but was also illegal, if the promises of the High Commissiones. have any other meaning than mere empty words. The tobacco tax is maintained meanwhile, but meets with general condemination-The future will demonstrate how Sarawak territory, only r8 miles across the Day, has benefited in trade at the cost of Labuan. Considerations for the future do not appear to be thought, of by the Chartered Coy. Their policy seems to be to grab what they can while they can and let posterity take care of itself-n very comfortable. policy.

On 4th January, the Laduan Official Gameits dated 6th December was received in the Colour for the first time, publishing Ordinances [VVL&VII of igos, all signed by the Clerk to the Council-a body which does not exist.

The Dog Ordinance is an elaborate scheme introduced from the Federated Malay States and Identical with that of Sandakan, which has caused such disgust and very nearly a tragedy, It is wholly unnecessary in Labuan. It may he suitably termed a fad, except that the tax has been doubled.

The Opium Ordinance is a question for the Chinese only and as it is worked by them and for them does not concern the community.

The Spirit Ordinance is another matter. This entirely replaces the old Ordinance of 1850, which has served Labuan so well, and burdens us with the "Liquor Proclamation 1901" of the State of North Borneo, said to be identical with that in force in the Straits Stattlements and Federated Malay States. This Ordinance consists of 78 articles and 17 forms, probably suitable for a large city and prosperous" Colony like the Straits Settlements, but quite out of place here in a small Colony of 8411 inhabitants spread over 33 square miles, of which quite - 3000 are migratory, and besides mostly Moham- medan and consequently abstainers. It would take up too much space to discuss the whole Tordinance here; suffice to say the purport of the same is to create a monopoly in favour of the Farmer by compelling every inhabitant to draw: their supplies from him in any quantities of 3 cases and under. The arbitrary powers con- ferred on the Farmer-a Straitsborn Chinaman brought here by the Governor-under this Or- dinance, powers originally framed for exercise by Europeans only, are such as no Asiatic, especially an alien Chinaman ought to be ent- rusted with. Under the old Ordinance any mer- chant or trader could import, export or other wise sell liquors in quantities of one case

more without any license, by sim-. ply paying "the excise duties to the famer. The new farmer maintains that no person can sell, transfer or export, spirituous liquors, even when duty has been paid on them,' unless a retail license has been taken out, the terins for which, with such a limited trade as in Labuan, are quite prohibitivé. It has completely disorganized a legitimate trade and caused many traders already serious loss. It is main- tained by the public that even under the new Ordinance duty paid.liquors may be exported without any license under Article 148 and a test case is now sub, judico. Under the existing judicial arrangements how ever little faith is placed in the Courts presided over by officials under the orders of the Go- vernor, and there being no appeal except to a Court presided over by an official also under the Governor' orders, the case may have to be taken to the Privy Council. (It is a gross travesty on justice that there is no appeal to the Straits Courts which have the advantage of properly trained judges, considering there are only amateurs in Labuan and, orneo. The Char. tered Company have always resisted this right right of appeal when proposed.)

Added to this vexatious ordinance is the - more serious question of the introuction into the Crown Colony of Labuan of the North Bornea Customs tariff,, as an excise tax on spirituous liquors, increasing the former excise from roo% to 800%. This is distinctinctly a violation of the constitution and' of the agree inent undertaken on assuming the administra tion of the Colony. If allowed to passed un- challenged we may next see the entire Customs tariff introduced as "excise." Labuan is a free part and its very existeuce as a dis tributing centre depends on its remaining 8 free port. The Chartered Company, with their high Customs tariff, do not view with favour this privilege of Labuan, and attempts have before been made to assimilate the con- ditions of the Colony to North Borneo. An enquiry by the High Commissioner: some years back in answer to a petition of the inhabitants normalized matters, but for some time past old tactics have been to the. fare ngain.

The finances of Labuan are sound and suf ficient for the requirements of the Colony if carefully and economically administered. The revenue amounts to about $60,000 per annum, or say $11 per head of the resident population." If honestly employed in the Colony and not manipulated for the benefit of North Bomeo the island might be made a model settlement, but we cannot pay for the extravagances now in vogue. We have a little too much of the Federated Malay States policy bere at present, which does not augur well for the future. Tho Malay States have plenty of money and can afford luxuries, we have none and cannot afford them. Ultra-conservatism, or rather craziness, has even gone to the length of importing from there' Indian cattle for draught purposes-an unwarranted expense saddled on the Colony to gratify the whim of some crank. We have buf faloes galore at half the expense, which require no special attendant and serve every purpose. required. We have only about one and a quarter miles of toad kept in order
