10 THOSE who honor their profession, it is not
only annoying, but il is Illuminating, to see the
wretched WORK accomplished by tyrOs who get
the temporary control Of a press and some types.
Their antics are sometimes enough "to make
men and angels weep" Witness the Gazette Of
this week as an illustration Of our position. The
leading article is crude, and ill-mannered in the
extreme. Just criticism Of men in public posi-
tions is what should be expected Of the press, as
n part Of its duty but those who control the
utterances Of the press should remember, and
particularly in the transition state Of this coun-
try, that the Judiciary is the bulwark Of public
safety, and that any public contempt Of the
judiciary like that exhibited in the Gazette Of
this week has q decided tendency to undermine
the foundations Of society. The writer Of the
article to which we refer evidently belongs to
the communister class, whose policy is to pull
DOWN instead Of build up. That is a class that
we do not need in Hawaii nei.
Since writing the above, we learn that a cita-
tion has been issued from the Supreme Court,
requiring T.. Crawford Mcdowell, editor OF the
Gazette to appear on Monday next, to
show cause if any he have, why he should not be
guilty of contempt of said Court.
