Attorney General Dole gave an opin ion to High Sheriff Bron yesterday upon the queetion of qualifications re quired f members of coroner's juries. The following Is the cpinion: Territory of Hawaii, Office of the Attorney General. Honolalu, H. I.. Ju'y 25, 1902. Mr. A. M. Brown, Uigrt BherifT of the Ttrritory of Hawaii. Dear Sir: I am in receipt of your re qutst for my opinion "whether a person not an American citizen is for that rea son exempt from duty aa a ' coroner's juror." Section 974 oi the 1'enai uws oi ijji provides that the coroner, in cum a coroner's rnqowst becomes ; necessary, shall summon "six good and lawful men of the district." The phrase "good and lawful men (liberoB et legales nominee" has ljeen ufd and has bad a recognized and rstablisbd meaning in EngliBh law for nearly a thousand years. It does not refer to the moral elAracter of the men, but to their legal qualifications for the .li.c.-'hjirs'ft nf rivll functions. Coroner's iurors have functions prescribed and de- fijitd by law; they are required 10 ie an oath of clfice, and they receive statu tory fceB for their services. Although thtreMd nothing in the Organic Act or in the Jaws of the Territory expressly de claring thut a coroner's jury must be corniced of citizens of the United S'atcs anJ of the Territory, I seriously doubt the right of the coroner to compel any one who is not a citizen to serve; in other words, I think it U at least ex tremely doubtful whether a person who is not a citizen is a "good and lawful man of the district" within the meaning of th law. Very respectfully yours. (S5gned) E. P. DOLE, Attorney Gen-sr.d. GET A HAVANA FOR FIVE CENTS Vhat May happen in the Cigar Trade in a Short Time. A representative of a wholesale cigar house In this city predicts that in the near future the cigar business will un dergo a great change. He thinks that straight Havana filled cigars will be placed on the market by wholesale houses generally at a price enabling the retail cigar dealer to sell them at five cents. "By jingo! If this does happen I don't know what will become of . Honolulu. The place Is at present a hot bed of smokers. Nearly everyone smokes here now and when Havanas get down to a nickel ships approaching the Island .of Oahu wiil see such a cloud of - smke aboveHonplulu city that they will think the extinct volcano on Punchbowl has been tunnelled into and opened up by en terprising tourist getters," went 'on the wholesale man. "Why do I think the price is going to drop? Well, it's as easy thinking that out as to add two and two together. , You see there has been a great influx of Ameri cans into Cuba since the war and this has resulted In a ' greatly Increased to bacco acreage. The crop this year Is ex pected to be a largo one and Is bound to sell at a considerably cheaper price than formerly. It's only a question of time until Havana tobacco becomes but little if any more expensive than domestic to bacco. Everyone knows that Cuban soil is the ideal tobacco raising soil cf the world. It never needs fertilizing and goes on raising crop after crop of the weed without ever showing signs of ex haustion." ... About the only bar to turning out five cent Havanas at . the present time Is a clause in the rate scale for piece work in effeet with the Cigarmakers" Union. This scale provide one price for miUUng cigars from domestic and one for Imported to bacco, under , which - clause the Havana tobacco comes. This scale is so made be cause of greater care exercised in hand ling the ItAf and because of the present higher selling price. It Is probable that some compromise will be made between the inanufacturtrs and unions to enable them to carry out the fond hope of the American smoker of moderate mean clear Havana for a nickel." "Just at present." continued the whole sale weed man, "there is a big cigar war on in Honolulu. Many firms are pushing special brands and their prices to the retailer are rapidly going down. The war has been such during the past few months that eeT ral formerly well known brands will shortly disappear altogether from the market, their place being taken by a more profitable, more "advertised, and in many erases, better brands of cigars." "So llonoluians are great smokers? "You bet your Hilo hat they are! TV'hy, American tobacco and cigar manufactures consider that more smoking is done In Honolulu than in any city of Its size In the United States." " ; Hay Coaia Here Unmarried. In our issue of June 21 we made some remark upon a recent decision of the Secretary of War, that young lieu tenants who marry need not expect quarters in addition to those allowed by the regulations. We are informed that the Secretary has taken this stand rot because he is at all opposed to marrying in the Army, tut because, under the pxitinsr conditions, he feels that youisr officers should for their own good br; warned against acquiring families. It kas been definitely decided thct for tvery period of six years an off vr must expect to spend two in tne Philippine and the Secretary does not think that a lieutenant with a salary of but (lie per month will be able to "support two establishments one in the Philippines and one in this country. J The War JLcpartment will not rurnisn transportation from San Francisco to the Philippines for the wives and farn ilie of Army officers after transport service is abandoned, which it prob- j ably will be within a year.
