LAST week it was pointed out by the
GAZETTE that fully three months had
then elapsed without any appointment
having been made to fill the post of
Attorney-General, vacated by the resigna-
ton of the Hon Ed Preston The place
Is stlll vacant, not nd interim, but simply
vacant The Premier went out of his
way TO tell us that no offer had been made
10 any qualified lawyer in the Kingdom;
that there are many such Is a fact as well
known. as that the existing stop gap Is an
unfit instrument for even that post, or
that the interests of justice are leo
pardlzed and even the constitutional com
pleteness of the Government laid open
to question by the persistent refusal to
appoint to a Ministerial office, without
any assignable reason for such action.
Amongst the evils which have accrued
from the vacancy OF the Attorney Gene
ralshlp and the Incompetence of the os-
tenslble administrator, first let us refer tc
the Madras muddle, aptly so termed by
the organ. The Madras arrived during the
| lncumbency of Mr.. Preston; the natural
common sense course of events was con
yerted into muddle by the panic of the
Board of Health, backed by the obstinate
ignorance and peryersity of its President,
who preferTing his own notions to the
| legal knowledge Of his constitutional ad-
wiser has, so far as Is yet ascertainable re
suited in a considerable unnecessary ex-
/ pense to the country. As our readers viii
see elsewhere in this issue, the Premier of
/ the Kingdom and President of things in
general, chose for consultation with Mr..
/ Preston the critical moment when the
former knew. but the latter did not know.
that the resignation of the Attorney
General was accepted and had become an
accomplished fact
Now take the case of the double homi-
eide at Hilo. as to the full merits of the
case, the relative responsibility. or culpa-
hllIty OF the slayer or slam. no opinion
based upon thorough investigation can
now or ever be expressed The pre-
liminary examination by the local Justice
resulted in a committal for trial by that
officer. Accordingly the accused is sent
up to the capital. public feeling is keenly
aroused and fair trial by jury confidently
anticipated, when the 'Rolle pr0seg9i'' of a
laylnan stops proceedings, the slain men
having been buried, the slayer Is set at
large, and wondering community asks.
fruitlessly Of course, why is this The
answer must be, because there Is no
Attorney General
Here there is muddle upon muddle in
the course OF three short months,al because
the Premier persists in dabbling in matters
of which he knows nothing and with
which he has no business to interfere.

chief which has been and Is being accom-
J plished by keeping vacant a Ministerial

The CRY Of the sick, and the urgent re

they have been promised. but none have
been built
Money mas been luyishcd on arms and
military folly on the ridiculous mounted
constahulary: on bridge and building con
tracts given 90 family connections: and
childish embassies abroad: but the sick
and diving have been neglected.
But the dear Premier bethought him
how pleasantly il would make a large re.
ligious body 10 the community feel. TO
select Sisters If Charity from among
their number. So with much parade a
worthy VueSt was sent abroad. and now
Il D. heralded that the Sisters are coming

Tn office Of Governor of either of the
Islands of Hawaii. Maui or Kauai, Is one
of importance A iudicious governor
residing on the island to which he Is
appointed might Become a most useful
officer of government, and exercise an
extensive beneficial influence.
Perhaps no one word can so fully
explain the cause Of much OF the ineffi-
cheney Of government officers on the
other islands as irrep0HSibHtH There Is
large number Of officers who are to a
great extent under the supervision of the
governor. Among them are the tax
assessors and collectors. road supervisors
and pound masters. The sheriffs. con
stables, and district Judges receive their
commissions from the governors. And, if
he chose, the governor could exert much
influence over the postmasters and the
schools
1t Is an honorable Office and the incum-
bent should be one whose approval or
disapproval would be significant Exer-
cising wise supervision greater degree
Of accountability would attach to all the
subordinate officers. An absence of pro.
per supervision will inevitably produce
laxness and ineficiency among subordi.
mates. And when such a state exists too
much blame cannot be placed on the
superiors.
The Governor Of Kauai Is at his post
and Is believed TO be possessed Of a desire
to govern his island well His qualifca
tions are not all that could be wished. and
he does not accomplish as much as he
might, but in the main Kauai is well
governed. But on Hawaii and Maui the
| incumbents do not pretend to reside or
their respective islands. and the duties
are performed manly by acting governors
These acting governors cannot have the
authority which pertains TO the office
They perform the delegated duties as best
they can, but It too often appears to be IL
a perfunctory manner
The Office Of governor Is n high office
and It's dignity and Importance should b,
maintained, the incumbent should be &
man Of intelligence and energy; one who
honors the office by his presence and
| inspires his subOrdinates with respect
The vigilant yet respectful supervision o.
such superior would inspire confdenc,
and insure efficiency.
The visit Of such a man to the school.
would be hailed as memorable event
/ and high compliment his frequent
inspection of the various branches Of the
island government would tend TO raise I
standard of public service now unknown
There Is just cause for complaint of the
culpable manner in which the duties Of
the officers of governor with the OK
ception of Kauai are performed.

CITY, but at present without visible means of sub
sistence Is wandering about through some of the
outlying districts of Hawaii and Maui feeling the
political pulse of the electors and pretending to
express vehement Indignation with the present
administration of public affairs. Now, If the Pre-
mier canonly catch this fellow tripping, expressing
his political sentiments little too strongly or if
he can unmask the secret employer Of this incon-
diary, what u master stroke of policy, what a

A spgcIMEN OF The DOCTRINE.

Mr.. Laphsm, in the United States SEN
ate, during the consideration of the tariff
bill, moved to lay duty of three cents a
quart, and every fraction of a quart after
the first, on imitation and natural mineral
waters. This was protection with ven.
geance. 1t brought Mr.. Beck to his feet,
who thought that to apply protection to
the springs of the country and the keepers
of summer watering places was putting the
tabled straw upon the tabled camel, that
broke the back of that unhappy beast of
burden. It reminded him of the story told
of Dean Swift, to whom lady visiting his
place in the Irish hills praised the delicious
air. The Dean besought her not to speak
her praises loudly, lest the Government
should discover its merits and tax it accord
ingly. This in turg suggested to Mr.
Vance that as the mineral waters come in
bottles, the corks of which are secured by
wires, duty should be put on to protect
the iron interest. Mr.. Lapham's amend
ment was laughed out of the Senate, as
should. be the whole absurd protection
doctrine.
