ton OF good men 1t would un-
doubtedly increase taxation for police
purposes. But there is nothing for
which citizens can so well afford To pav
taxes as for the protection of life and
property insured by a sound police
system.
As to the present officers of the
present force, the Press has already
said enough to set thoughtful people
thinking. Doubtless it angered the
friends of the marshal, and would have
angered the friends of the head sheriff
on Maui and Hawaiiif they thought that
the Press included them in the same
category of incompetence. Sheriff
Wilcox, of Kauai, has shown capacity
but it is extremely doubtful that he
could be induced to forsake the garden
island for anything he might be offered
here. 1t is for thoughtful men who
have families to support and property
to protect to consider well who. in this
busy community, is best fitted to be
head of its police system.
Aword now as to thepersonnel. The
day hasgonc by in this community when
a large majority of native policemen
will answer AT least third of the
force ought to be whites All ought to
be young men of character, of courage,
OF stature, of strength and of intclli-
.gence. TO have such men they must
be paid good wages At least as
much as they could earn at other
work. 1t is for the legislature unless
we obtain municipal government and
a town council-to say how many
policemen Honolulu needs. Whatever
the number, let them be all regnlays :.
this "halfiine" abomination has existed
too long All the officers ought to be
men of unblemished reputation for
honesty and sobriety. All ought to be
able to speak both Hawaiian and
English. None of them should be al
lowed to work at any other business.
As to Marshal Parke and Deputy
Dayton let them still be marshal and
deputy, but confined strictly to civil
business. The mounted police force,
having demonstrated its mastery in.
ability to be either ornamental or use
ful, had best be "done' interra Gotta, and
placed inthe museum as a warning to fu-
ture legislators. In this curt considera-
ton of bigsubject have left thepolice
system Of the other islands almost en-
tlrely out of the question. Election OF
sheriffs by the tax payers of each island
or set of islands, each sheriff to appoint
his deputies, ought to better the con
dtion of things throughout the group.
As no Hawaiian city, other than Homo
lulu, is large enough to need separate
police system, the sheriffs, if elected by
the realestate tax payers, might safely
be trusted to do their dutics-if they
did not it would probably be the fault
of the electors. ~

The Gazette-charter case was argued
before Judge Austin last Monday.
The arguments were on points of law
almost entirely although the merits OF
the case were succlnctly stated by Mr..
Hartwell for the plaintiffs. The argu-
ment for the Gazette proprictors was
that 1t is part of the plain duty of the
minister of the interior to present to
the king in privy council all petitions
Tor chartcrlnCorporalions -reCommCnd-
ing that they may be granted or rejected
as he sees fit The defendants contend
that the spirit (as well as the acknow-
ledged letter. of the law gives the
minister of the interior full discretion
to bring charters forward or delay them
rs he sees fit. Messrs. Smith &
lhurston and Mr.. A. S. Hartwell ap
peared for the plaintiffs, Messrs. Akin
son X Grleve; and Messrs. Neumann
and Whiting for the defendant, the
minister of the interior. The case was
well talked on both Sides and a good
many legal hairs were split to their very
roots. Judge Austin will decide upon
the question of discretion or indiscre-
ton, mnder tie lac, next Monday. No
one doubts that he will decide accord
ing TO law-as he ought, regardless of
the abstract merits OF the cause. But.
in case the law shall be interpreted to
mean that the discretion or indiscretion
OF minister of the interior may play
ducks and brakes with the communityis
business, for purposes of spite or black
mail or at the dictation of an official
boss it is high time that the law
should be altered.

MR. IUEE,S MISNION.

Whatever Mr. Adee's mission to this
government may be, neither he nor
Commissioner Daggett, to whom he re
ports, are as yet prepared to make it
public. Unquestionably he has come
to inquire into the contract between the
government and the Oceanic Steam
ship Company relative to Chinese
immigration. We have good reason
for the belief that Mr. Adee's inquiry
will have direct bearing upon the
continuation of our treaty with the
United States, and that one condition
of continuance will be that no erG(Hsi1e
contract shall be entered into on the
part of this government that shall shut
out American ships from doing free
what any other vessels (even though
themselves Amcrican) do under subsidy.
Another condition is likely to be that
this country shall enforce the American
tariff schedule le-thus compelling us to
trade more largely with the United
States; in other words, to make the
treaty more truly reciprocal"

We promised two weeks. ago con
slderation of the management of the
Queens Hospital, in reply to the re
quest of correspondent. There is so

II seems captious to find fault with
either the system or its execution. But
we do thlnk-as our correspondent
suggests that there ought to be pro-
vision made for cheaper rates to poor

afford to be generous, We wish the
trustees would discuss the subject at
their next regular meeting and invite
newspaper men and the public to be

Were il not for the fearful consc.
qucnces attending the large increase in
the consumption Of liquor, according Ia
recent custom house statistics, and the
daily evidences wc have before US OF
the rapid growth Of drunkenness
amongst the native population, it would
be amusing to wade through the Advcr.
tiscr's efforts, in several issues last week,
to prove that there is no more liquor
used by Ilawaliars now than there was
before the restrictions upon its sale
were removed Figures showing the
increase Of population are brought for
ward to prove, if possible, that the in
crease in the consumption Of liquor has
been among foreigners. We will not
quarrel with them now on this point,
but We do take exceptions to what we
have daily evidences OF as to the
rapidity with which the chains of intcm
perance are cncompassing this people.
Liquor dealers themselves do not deny
it, The deserted wives and forsakcn
children are proclaiming it, The EN-
plOyers OF native labor, especially
among ship owners, realize it. We do
not deny that there is an increased con
sumption among foreigners; we are
paincd to witness evidences of the fact,
and have feared that in the solicitude
for the native race we were losing sight
Of the growing habit among the whites
All this goes to show the neces-
sity of restriction rather than continued
license. Prove to us that black is
white, but don't, for humanitys sake,
try, in spite of the facts We have before
us, to prove that drunkenness is not
working inroads on an innocent people,
simply because such theory would
calm the conscience of the present
administration If it has any con.
science.
