greatest adyances have been made in
recent years on tho mainland In the
matter of local government advances
that have proved most remarkable In
the degree In which they have lncreas.
ed the efficiency of local, government.
"In tho first place, It Is now an ex
ploded notion that tho larger the num
ber of elective officers the greater the
degree of popular government. Tho
old notion was to elect as many offi
cers as possible on the Idea that there
by tho people govern themselves, but,
as a matter of fact it has resulted the
other way. The way to get popular
government Is to elect those who de
termine policies, namely, the super
visors, and let them appoint the offi
cers who are to carry out their pol
ces. This Is essential In order to ob.
tain n government that Is responsible
and responsive to the people. This
principle Is now recognized and Is be
ing applied more and more oe the
mainland. A board of supervisors is,
or should be, much like a board of
directors of a corporation. The di
rectors are elected and they appoint
the other officers. They determine
the policies and aro put In a position
to carry them out and are held res
ponsible If they do not. Otherwise,
there would be friction and independ
ence of action with no one that could
be held to complete responsibility.
Moreover, this Is in the direction of
tho short ballot, which is now ad
vocated by the best thnkers on this
subject. The fewer the names on the
ticket tho more can tho voters find
out about then and form correct judg.
ments In regard to them. Attention
may bo concentrated on u few, not on
many. Better men have to be nomin
ated in order to get elected, and there
Is more inducement for better men to
run. The idea would bo to elect sim
ply the supervisors in each county
and city and county and let them ap
point the other officers, excepting the
auditor, Who also might be elected
because he should be Independent of
the supervisors.
In the second place, one of the most
effective means found elsewhere to
promote efficiency In local government
Is that of electing the supervisors at
large and not by districts. This has
several advantages. A candidate who
Is to be elected by a larger constitu
ency must in general be a man of
greater ability or higher character, or
both, .than a man who Is to be elected
by a smaller constituency. A super,
visor so elected is also apt to consider
himself more the representative of
the whole county and not merely of
his district. Supervisors are now so
elected in the City and County of
Honolulu. This might very well be
extended to the other counties, with
possibly a modification in the case of
the County of Hawaii, where a portion
of tho supervisors might be elected
from ,one side of tho island and tho
others from tho other side, or three
from each side and one at large, or
all might be elected at largo but three'
be required to bo residents on one side
and four on the other,
"In tho third place, the old notion
that there should bo In city and coun
ty governments, as In state govern
ments, a distinct executive and a dis
tinct legislative body Is also now be
ing rapidly discarded and in place of
It there Is a growing belief that a city
or county government should be con
ducted by ono body, like that of the
board of directors of a corporation,
There is no need of a separate mayor
with a veto power. He should bo one
of tho board and have no veto power.
Business should not be clogged or de
layed by red tape or by having a ma
yor of one polltical.party and 'a board
of a different political party. The
majority of tho board should control
the policies and take the responsibil
ity and bo In a position to proceed In a
businesslike way. Consequently, It
may be well to make the mayor a

THE KEWGHURGH
At the close of his sermon yester
day In the Methodist church Bishop
Hughes stnted that $12,000 was need:
ed to meet the present Indebtedness,
on account of the new building. After
mentioning the fact that a part of
this sum had already been subscribed
during the last few uays, he asked for
further subscriptions. The people
responded very cheerfully and liberally
and at the close cf the service $9,500
of the amount needed had been pro
vided. A quiet canvass for the re
maining $2,500 will be made during
this week.
It Is earnestly hoped that the entire
amount may be provided for before
Bishop Hughes leaves for San Fran
cisco, Saturday, January 28. Any gift,
large or small, will be greatly appre

member of the board; that is, in the
City and County of Honolulu have a
board of seven members, of which the
mayor shall be one. The mayor could
still be elected as such and bo the
presiding officer nnd have a general
superintendence over the work of the
city and county, but he would primar
ily be a member of the board with a
right to vote and act as other mem
bers but without a veto power, just as
is the case with the chairman of the
county boards.
These changes, if made, would pro
bably better be made so as not to take
effect during the terms of the officers
who are already elected; that Is, they
should not take effect until the next
election."
