Chapter Nv.
OF LAWS WHICH ARE NOT OF UNIVERSAL
APPLICATION.


In the constitution, it is stated what
laws are applicable to the kingdom at
large. A single chief cannot make law,
not even his majesty the king, but the
chiefs must assemble according to the re-
quircmcnts of the constitution. Where
fore if single governor pursue an incor-
rect course, the fault is his own; it does
not attach to the kingdom, until the king
and PRIMER approve the act then the
kingdom is involved.
There are many little evils existing in
villages, which the general laws of the ma
llon cannot correct, for the circumstances
of one village are unlike the circumstan-
ces of another village, wherefore, the fol-
lowing edc,s have been agreed to:
|. If the people Of any village, town.
ship, district, or state, consider themselves
afflicted by any particular evils in conse-
qnencc of there being no law which is ap-
picable, it shall be lawful for them to 90
to tax officer Judge, or any chief, and
he Shall give notice to all the people of
the place, who may assemble at the place
mentioned by the officer. Then they
may devise law which will remedy their
difficulties. If they shall agree to any
rule, then that rule shall become law
for that place, but for no other. 1t shall
not however be in their power to make
any law which is at variance with any law
of the Kingdom, nor on subject of uni
versal importance.
But laws respecting roads, fences, ami
mails, and all such like things they may
pass.
The Polynesian., 1841-10-16

governors and landlords shall settle the
difficulties in relation to residnum lands,
and other difficulties also; first let the
,lficulties on the manner of doing busl-
ness be settled establish your men on
your lands, that they may be well off (;
seek reward for the laboring class ac.
cordlng TO the amount of labor performed !;
and all officers shall be rewarded accord
ing to their correctness in transacting bu-
slness. After six months from this time,
chiefs, landlords and people shall be pun
ished for all violations of this law, accord
ing to the within requirements.
@. Respecting the council of the chiefs
In the fore part of April the chiefs shall
meet in council to consult on the welfare
of all who reside in the kingdom. By
such a course the chiefs may pcrpctua,e
their rank above the people, in snbsGryi-
ence to all the laws OF the kingdom 10
which you give your assent.
But for man to engage in onlv one
kind of business is the surcst wav to en-
rich the nation thus, one engage in agri-
culture, another in the fisheries, another
in canoe building, another in house build
ing, another in trade ; each important
business of the nation having separate
class of laborcrs, in accordance with the
opinion of the skiltul
All taxes assessed previous to the en-
action of this law, shall be paid. and all
labor prcvIousIy given out shall be per-
formed in full, after which the old system
shall end.
This law was enacted on the 9TH of
June, in the year of our Lord one thous-
and eight hundred and thirty nine.
AT subsequent examination of the chiefs
certain changes were made, to which we
have set our names this ninth day of No.
vember in the year of our Lord one thous-
and eight hundred and forty, at Lahaina,
Maui.
