THE ARMY AGAIN.
JUNE 10, 1882.

In our last issue, we published an editorial
on the Hawaiian Army, and the p. c. A. of
Monday last, in replying thereto, corroborated
what was said so strongly that we regret want
of space to publish the same entire. "Why,"
asks our contemporary, "should a small state
neglect to train for self defense?" But the
same article denies the privilege of answering,
for it says, we care 'out of Court as foreign
ers, in offering an opinion on this subject"
In Difference to the Ministerially inspired hero
of the quill who lies iutrenched behind his
bottle of cheap ink in the sanctum of the p. C.
a., we will keep our opinions to ourselves
when we are convinced that he has more right
to publish his than we have to make ours known.
In answer to his question, much could be said.
Hawaii should not arm, because it is entirely
unnecessary; because it has no weak neigh
| bors, and the only ones with whom it could
| have any trouble are countries strong enough
to send here u larger army and navy than
could be raised here, even though every in
| habitant be pressed into the service; because,
| If all our people were armed soldiers, local
disturbances would result in miniature reyo-
lutions, and possibly blood would be shed,
whereas now there is no danger, and nothing
can grow out of them but words and froth,
which are less dangerous than bullets; because
the cost OF keeping in service large army
would bo a greater expense than the country
would bear; because the large appropriations
| necessary TO sustain it would increase the law
ish waste OF the public money for useless pur-
poses, and an increase of taxation would be
the inevitable result; because it would draw
the natives from their legitimate pursuits and
eventually make them "a race of paupers; be-
cause war is an evil that should be avoided
not courtedi because the persons acting as the
brains ~ OF this movement, who are thirstiug
for military record, should remember that
peace has her victories as well as war, But il

THE OPPOSITION DwINDL1Ne.

How refreshingly innocent is the statement
in the Daily p. c. 4. of June sth, that "The
Government was yesterday supported by a
very large majority on tho vote for Coronation
Expenses. This was the second great fight of
the session on the Estimates, and compari-
son of the division list with that on the vote
for His Majesy's Household Expenses, shows
that the ranks OF the Opposition Party-if there
bo really such a party-are dwindling. The
opposition to the Coronation vote had evi-
IDENTIFY been carefully concerted beforehand,
and the elaborate speech in which the Hon.
Noble Mott Smith indnlged, showed deter
mined effort to throw out the vote had been
resolved upon" If indications are to be con-
sdered, perhaps they might show still bet
ter concerted scheme upon the part of the
"Premier" to carry the measure into opera
ton. One advantage, at least, tho "Promier'
had, and that was, the opportunity, pending
the discussion in the House, of talking the
matter over with number of the Representa-
tives in a more quiet and priodte way ut the
lunch table of his own house. BY fortunate
coincidence, a toothsome repast had been pre-
vided 10y the premier" upon the day wher
the affairs of his department were under dis
cussion before the Assembly. We would no
for moment insnuate that such, in ITSELF by
the remotest possibility. could, for the nonce
have increased his popularity, of which We
are assured by tho independent newspaper
with which he has recently severed all con.
ncction; yet, being cognizant of tho fact tina
men do not, as a rule, meet at table withou
friendship and community of feeling, and tina
such is likely to be fostered by good feed
! ing, we cannot forego the conclusion that th,
event may, i'll u measure, have been propitious
''The ranks Of the Opposition are dwindling.
We concur in the statement of the p. C. 4
Daily, and admit, further, the belief that it vii
dwindle still, so long as any Cabinet of whicl
the present Premier is the head and front, hold
the rens of administrative power. And S
long as those of the community, both nativ
and foreign, rich and poor, who in heart op
pose criminal wasting Of the public none
in pageants and tawdry, gotten by increasing
the burdens of taxation, sit mum, disunited an
undecisive, in regard to an Opposition policy
so long will this power survive that will soone

tear away the foundations of its independence

ISLAND ATTORNEYS.

In the Appropriation Bill provision has been
made for the pay of District Attorneys for the
different districts of the Islands. No opposi-
tion has thus far shown itself to this new de-
parture, and we trust the Assembly will look
at the subject in calm and reasoning manner.
The great increase in the business and popula-
tion of the country has necessarily brought
with it an increase in the business of the
Courts; and as the hands of the Sherifis are
full, as consequence, with the management
of police affairs, proper, it is necessary that
such appointments should be made, and for
which the Appropriation Bill has provided
1t is n well known fact that the Sheriffs in
many districts, although, perhaps, competent
to carry out the laws under direction, are yet
incompetent as advocates or attorneys before
Court, and that, as a consequence of faulty in
dictments and the like, many real culprt
has been able to avoid the legitimate cons e.
quences of his acts. In years gone by, when
the business of the Courts was infinitely less
than it is at present, the different districts had
their Attorneys. Although the arrangement
was then considered an advantage, it was
finally done away with, owing to the fact that
the need of such Offices was not commensurate
with the expense attendant, But to- day, the
the whole phase Of things has changed, and
nothing now is recognized, by any one conver-
SAINT with such matters, as Of more importance
than the appointment of Crown prosecutors,
whose sole duty it shall be to sec that justice
is meted out according to law to all offenders

THE QUESTION OF SALARIES.

at is not so worry many years ago" says the
editor Of the p. C. A., that the whole of the
lands in the Hawaiian Kingdom were the
property Of it's king, and the whole Of lis reve
nue. was his private revenue" Very true;
but If King Kauikeaoui, Kamehamcba Ill,
was far enough advanced to see the folly and
injustice Of such a system and distribute
large portion Of the land among the common
people, why, at this late day, when the Ka-
mellamehas are no more, when the Govern
ment aud people are changed, should any one
sigh for those times Government is not in-
terested for the benefit of few, but to improve
tho condition of all. All people are created
equal, and one has no more rights than an
other other than those granted by reason Of
his position. 1t is ridiculous for a people to
tax themselves unnecessarily to support a
chief executive, no matter what may be his
title, whose duty it is to consider their welfare
The same wise editor informs us that the sal
airy Of the King is less in amount than is vol
| unfairly given by British colonists to some of
their Governors. This is very true, but what is
| the population and revenue of those colonies
The President of the United States, who occu-
pies difficult and responsible position, ncud-
| ing his salary and all allowances receives a
smaller sum than the King Of Hawaii, and yet
tho population of one country is 52,0OO,00O
and of the other about 65 900.

REVISE THE CODES.

How often during trials in our Courts some
thing comes up 10 show what ridiculous alb
surdities our laws contain. 1t would DO Diff
cult to find an equal amount of law anywhere
with more inaccuracies. Some are the result,
perhaps, Of faulty TRANSACTIONS, some of bad
punctuation, some Of carelessness in the word
ing, and others on the statutes are pro-
visions that should have been repealed long
ago, being no longer of any use. There are so
many blemishes that it would be useless tc
begin to enumerate them. 1t is necessary thai
our laws should be so plain as to leave nc
doubt of their meaning, aud it wsuld be well
for the Legislature to take the matter in hand
and appoint committee to revise the Codes
and make them Ineligible. 1t would also be
well for tho same committee to suggest amend
ments where necessary. The laws are in sucl
state that nothing will set them straight hui
a careful revision.
