TIIK-PACIFIC COMMERCIAL A I VKUTJSKR: HONOLULU, JULY J I. ion. TH PACIFIC Commercial Advertiser. W. N. ARMSTRONG EDITOR. MONDAY : : : : : JULY 21 JSOMETJIINU MORE Ai'.OUT THE CONSTITUTION. In another place is published an in teresting h-iKv from Mr. F. M. Hatch on the constitutional question. He does not agree with the Advertiser in its construction of Senator Morgan's re marks on tin- subject. When Senator Morgan said that there existed in these .Islands "an iniperium in imperio which is sLill in the complete exercise of its sovereign powers of govern ment," the language and the idea seems to exclude any superior power. There -can be -no sovereignty subject to fc'he Constitution for if it is subject to it it cannot be sovereign. The states are sovereign because they have expressly retained their sovereignty, while yielding up for the common good certain powers. Senator Morgan is unreservedly com mitted to the. proposition that the act of annexation carried with it the right of Hawaii to all the privileges which Juave been heretofore granted to any territory. Mr. Hatch, who is an excellent lawyer, knows the difficulty of con struing the simple authority given to Congress to "make needful rules and regulations' respecting the territories," does not determine at what moment the Constitution applies. The vague ness itself, the utters failure to indi cate that the territories have any rights, put lawyers and judges-'at sea in the matter.- If the Constitution is now in opera tion there, the paper money of the gov ernment is worthless. Section ten of the Constitution provides that "no State shall emit bills of credit." Here is a territory which is emitting bills of credit every day, in the circulation of its Treasury notes. If the Consti tution prevails, it is gross violation of 5ts provisions, and any law of Congress adopting or re-enacting any municipal law of Hawaii which allows the issue and use of paper money is clearly un constitutional. Much more may be said on the subject. THE LABOR QUESTION. VISITING MEDICOS 1-IRi: AT IIOMJll'L'. sc and Valu able Contents Destroyed.

II I ll A II l . JUl JLViiUl A Ail All DISiNFECTINE The Match Shoot. The failure of the planters to get the consent of the Italian government to the emigration of laborers from Italy, loes not prevent Italian emigra tion to ithese Islands. It can he car ried on, so far as the Italian govern ment 'is concerned, xvith the same free dom as it carried on to the Mainland. Any one who is familiar with the conditions of immigrant service is not surprised at the attitude of the Italian government. Before dependence should have been placed on a favorable atti tude, a careful investigation should have been made of the regulations governing Italian emigration to the Argentine Republic and elsexxiiere. The planters of these Islands xvill obtain sufficient labor whenever they seriously resolve to get it. Heretofore a whistle for ' laborers has been an swered by a rush of them. AVhistling Is no longer a magic power. In order to secure the necessary labor, a plan must be thought out, and a deal of ab solutely correct information obtained This requires time, and the best brain work. The labor problem is a most difficult one. to solve, but it is capable of solution. The foolish procrastina tion in tackling it, puts off the hour of solui.ic.Ti. and the entire Sugar in terest may have to suffer a good deal of tight squeezing before it really gets to work.

T While the government is building an excellent road to the Pali, it should place i large, water, trough by the road side,, near the reservoirs. By a simple automatic arrangement there would b no waste. Travel is uncreasing and the need of water for animals in creases. Between the city and the Pali there is not a single drinking place for the dumb animals excepting at a small stream running through Mr. Spencer's place. Dr. S. E.
