if thn i- win not allow tho uso of

how do tho Territorial l'ark Commls-1
sloners obtain money from tho Couuty!
Do they break through ana steal!
There Is opposition to Hawaii's re
funding bill. Wo trust our food clt
licns will not decide that tho gooso
Is therefore cooked. Not ono bill In ten
thousand goes before Cougrcss with
the strong backing and Influential
friends that Hawaii has obtained for
its bill to secure financial justice.
Attorney General l'tters nnds no
Jaw to prevent a county giving aid to
nubile schools. Taxpayers of Oahu
have a feeling that the law would not
wreck tho County. If there were par
tlcular unxlety on the part of those
having charge of tho funds to deal
with n partlotlc duty In a patriotic
manner.
What County salaries havo ,bcci
raised during the last two months
without tho matter coming up fat open
discussion at meetings of the Hoard old
Supervisors?
Is it truo that whllo the public
acnool lssuo hns beeu evaded, salaried
of persons working for the Count
have been quietly raised?
Senator Oalllngor Is convinced that
tho President of the United States It
worth as much as the aerago corpor
ation president. The present despar.
Ity may be duo to the fact that the
President of tho United Stntes Is sup
posed to Jie honest, while the prcsl
dent of a big corporation Is assumed
to bo honest until tho Legislature In
vestigates. . . . i
Should General Corhln predict any
thing but peace, his remarks would
cause a furoro In tho Foreign olflci'
of -every nation Intimately Interested
In tho Orient. Wo are pleased to note
that the General In an optimist. Nev
ertheless thoso ou tho outside who
hear American merchants talk of their
tradu In China, can't help feeling tint
the United States docs not Indulge In
junketing trips for large bodies ol
troops.
r -
Law Is an Inoxact sclcnco.Tho weight
nt public opinion Is that the Supervis
ors of the County of Oahu could nld
the schools If they were so disposed.
Tbey could at !eu6t pass tho desired
appropriation, and then allow any tax
payer who felt so disposed enjoin the
payment of tho money and thus secun
a decision from tho court. There Is
more than ono way for the County Su
pervisors to show their good will to
ward the public schools, other than
evading tho Issue under a legal opinion.
phiuppinb'bill fFght
The demise of the Phlllpplno free
trade bill In Senate comrnltteo prove
the good Judgment ot Hawaiian
sugar Interests In presenting their
cause openly nnd vigorously beforo
Congress. Next to the passage of th
refunding bill, this news Is the most
satisfactory which Hawaii could re
celvo from thU session of tho National
legislature.
Having met defeat In the committee
It Is not likely that Philippine frci
trade will bo brought to the flgbtluti
front again this session or during the
short session of next winter. Thus It
Is fair to assume that Hawaii's sugar
market will not be disturbed by tin"
Philippine product tor two years or
more. This will enable our main In
dustry to more successfully establish
Itself on an Independent uasis In the
k mainland market, and especially Iu
' that section supplied by the Crocked
refinery.
- Jt Is to be expected that the defeat
of this measure In the Senate will im
mediately start n mainland cry thnl
tho "Trust did It," since the Siik.ii
Trust and nil other Trusts are sup
posed to linvo n controlling hand In
tho upper house. 'c do not know
wboto voles kilted the bill, but no do
feel confident that the Sugar Trust
more than any other Interest, vtoulj
bo .served should tho bill become a
law.
Accepting ns correct, the assertion
that Philippine sugar lould not pos
sibly develop Into n menace to the
American producers corning within the
tariff protection, tho loss to the Philip
pines through the defeat of the bill
cannot be calamitous.
Iu npy event Hawaii can mako up
lis mind Unit It pays to present local
ond Industrial affairs to the United
Stales Congress honestly. An earnest
fighter wins more respect than a nncaV
who schemes to hae others do thr
work whllo bo plays the hypocrite.

DE BOLT OVERRULES
SECOND
The enso of Salto, tho Japancso who
Is alleged to havo been engnged in tho
business of nn emigration agent nt La-
halun last month without a license,
came up beforo Judge Do libit this foro
uuuii mo onginuy compiaini was
knocked out by a demurrer brought by
Judgo Gear, tho defendant's attorney,
and Salto was discharged. Ho was,
however, speedily arrested on a now
complaint.
I-rank Thompson, who nppcnrs as
special counsel for tho prosecution,
read tho new complaint. It differed
from tho original ono In that It speci
fied tho offenco which Salto Is alleged
to huvo been guilty of by stating thnt
he was engaged In tho business of nn
emigrant agent by inducing laborers
to go beyond tho limits of tho Terri
tory of Hawaii for tho purpose of be
ing employed, without first obtaining
tho license prescribed by law.
Gear immediately entered nn oral
demurrer on several grounds. Ho held
that tho complaint did not show factt-,
which constituted nn offense under rlio
law of tho Territory; It was uncertain,
In that It did not state what acta or
which laborers were Induced by tho
defendant to g beyond tho limits of
tho Territory, nor what laborers, If
any, or other persons, had been Induc
ed to go elsewhero for employment;
and finally becauao tho chnrgo was
made from a complaint which was
sworn to by a private party, nnd no At.
torney General or Deputy Attorney
General had presented tho chargu to
the Court.
Judgo Do Dolt overruled tho demur
rer. Tho setting of a day for tho hear
ing of tho caso was a dlfllcult matter
said tho Court, since It was now hear
ing tho Dro'wn:Sprcckcls case, which
would -probably last through all next
week.
Thompson said that ho had eight wit
nesses to produco, and Judgo Gear
agreed with him that tho hearing of
tho Salto caso would probably tako n
wholo day. Tho matter waH finally Bet
ror Monday, March 12. Tho defendant
wnH released on n $500 bond.

Transports
Can't Take
Teachers
Another letter of the discouraging
sort dealing with the request mndo by
the Hoard uf Education, that teachers
wishing to nttend summer schools on
tho const be ghen passago In army
transports, has been received by Sup
erintendent uabnltl from uuartcrmns-
ter Qencrnl Humphreys. In splto of
these rebuffs tho matter lias nut yet
been given up. however. Tho lcttci
referred to rends as follows:
War Department, Ofllco of Quarter
master General, Washington, Feb
17, 1900.
Mc W II. Ilabbltt. Superintendent of
Public Instruction, Territory of
Hawaii. Honolulu, II. T.
Sir. Ilcfcrrlng lo your letters to the
Secretary of War, dated' January 13
nnd 15, 1006, respectively, making ap
plication for transportation for forty
school tenchers from Honolulu to San
Francisco In Juno on army transport
,0 nttond summer schools on (he Pn-
cJflc ca$ "" ,return from Snn Fran;
Cisco to Honolulu on an army transport
i. ,., . ,. ',,
In August next, you nro respectfully
Informed thnt tho Secretary of War
has referred your communications toV
this omcc, with instructions to Inform
you that after a conference with tho
President, ho does not think It pos
sible for him to allow teachers from
Hawaii to use the government trans
ports, nnd In view of a provision In
tho nrmy appropriation bill now under
consideration in Congress that tho
transports shall be used only for the
army, it nas become necessary for him
to cut down, as far ns possible, all uso
or army transports by unofficial per
sons,
Respectfully,
C. K. HUMPHREY.
Quartermaster General, U. S. Army.
A prlvato letter received from Dele
gate Kuhto by ono Interested says:
"Owing to the fnct that the transport
service Is under constant fire In Con'
gresd and Is only retained by n very
nnrrow majority, tho Secretary of War
is obliged In self-defcnso to enforce
Itome rules In regard to their uso which
ho would gladly change If bo only
thought It could bo dono without wip
ing out tho service Itself. This fact
will mako it extremely hard to get fav-
nrabla action which would mean so
much to us."

In .their further consideration of the
opposition to tho measure.
As Party Meature.
If the Democratic leader attempts to
gather tho opposition against us, we
shall try to have It made a party lssuo
by tho Republicans. Hut as Mr. Payne
nnd somo other Republican leaders do
not Invor tho bill, there are obvious
difficulties In having this done. For
tho present, our efforts are centered ou
securing a favorable report from tho
Comrnltteo while still earning on our
general effort to extend Its number or
lino wnarr. I havo already consulted
with tho Houso confrerces on this bill
and liopo to havo tho Item accepted by
them In conference, which will mako
suro Its early passago.

And plcrco tho clouds o'er Balling:
And smiling valleys 'neath them
spread,
With Summer sun's prevailing;
Thau fabled Eden higher far,
Kro primal sins Its glories mnr.
This land of beauty land so blessed
With Cero's gifts o'orfllowlng,
In robes of green for ever dressed,
And r
No spot
jnu ncnesi mills bestowing;
on earth, with blasslngs rare,
With this bright land can well com
pare.
