WOULDN'T WE?

EDITOR BuLLETN:--A good deal
has been said in favor of and against
the Portuguese laborers, but wish
ing not to interfere with plantations
where most of them are employed, L
have kept quiet.
Reading the Kohala letter signed
"XN" published in the weekly
"Gazette" of January 3rd, 1888, L
saw with great Indignation what is
said about my countrymen, and can
not help saying that they do not
deserve bit more of CROUCH handl-
ing to knock into their heads be-
coming sense of honesty and regard
for the private right of others"
than the people of any other nation
ality; and the tru Ii of what / say
can easily be lrov I'd by simply look
ing at the records of the cases be-
fore the courts of this Kingdom, and
by looking at the prison gangs.
If instead of from Portugal, i'm
migrants had been brought from
any other country, / do not care
what, in such large numbers and in
such careless way Gas the emf
grafton agents only care for the
money!, then we would have some
fun, wouldn't we?
l do not want, just now, to ex-
press my opinion as regards "Wide
Awake's" views, but simply ask
what wonder is it that some of the
Portuguese show some improve
ment some time after their arrival
in this kingdom? Why, what makes
almost all of the other people come
to this country, but the hope of i'm
proving their conditions?
Ignorant, (but not unintellectual.
as Mr.. "XX'' ignorantly calls Them
as they may be, that is no reason
why they should be abused, and if
they are such worthless class Of
people, why were they so much
cared for, at the time of the last
elections? Dust at that time, o1
course), and how was it that they
behaved themselves better on the
whole, not being divided, than the
people of other nationalities?

bill, and II two-thirds OF all elective
members do not vote to pass it over
the veto, it shall not become law.
Now, none of these things were
done by the Legislature. The King
returned certain bills with his objec-
tions thereto; and on motion of the
Attorney-General a day was fixed
for reconsidering the first of these.
Meanwhile Mr.. Castle interposed
with a resolution to the effect that
the Kings objection to bill, unless
countersigned by Minister was
nullity, and that the bills in ques-
ton should take their course as COM
ing under the third class, or unre-
turned bills, specified by the
Constitution. But his own endorse
ment, as President of the Legisla-
ture, shows conclusively that they
cannot come within that category,
and if so they are not and cannot be
laws.
1t is the doubt and uncertainty
regarding this point that we desire
to see set at rest. We want the
Constitution interpreted by the Su-
preme Court, which is free and in
dependent of both the Crown and
Legislature, and can afford to do its
duty without fear, favor or affection,
and also without partisan bias or
the predjudice that is not unnatur-
ally begotten of close political affllia-
tions. 1t is manifest, however,
that n continuance of the present
unsatisfactory conditions is not only
dangerous but must soon become in
tolerable.

THE MODE OF THE GUILL0TINE.

The condemned murderer in
France is informed when the Court
of Cessation rejects his appeal; but
he always has the hope that the Pre-
sident will pardon him, and on the
strength of his hope most of the con-
demned remain comparatively tran
quill. When the final day arrives the
convict is awakened by the Warden
about half an hopr before the time
is set for the execution. The
straight-jacket is removed and his
ordinary clothes given him. Then

A JUDICIAL RULING WANTED.

In last evenings BULLETIN, under
the heading of Pressing Duties, +"
we drew attention to the necessity
for settling, once for all, by judi
cial ruling, the constitutional points
involved in the Legislative work of
the extra session. We find what
purports to be laws published "By
Authority over the signature of
"William r. Castle, President of
the Legislature" attested by ~.
Alfred Magoon, Clerk of the Legis-
lature," with an endorsement which
is not contemplated by, or provided
for, in the Constitution. Either
these bills are laws or they are not,
and as they affect the entire in
ternal administration of the King
dom the sooner the point is settled
the better.
The Constitution specifies three
ways by which a Bill passed by the
Legislature may become law:
First, by the Kings approval and
signature.
Second, "by two-thirds vote of
all the elective members of the Leg
islature" over the Kings veto.
Third, by lapse of time in the case
of unreturned Bills: eff any Bill
shall not be returned by the King
within ten days Sundays excepted)
after it shall have been presented to
him, the same shall be law in like
manner as if he had signed it, un-
less the Legislature by their adj
journment prevent its return, in
which case it shall not become a
law"
We have, however, fourth way
by which Bill may become law,
although the King may have re-
turned it to the Legislature without
his signature, and with his reasons
for so doing as provided in the Con-
stitution, if the process adopted by
the President of the Legislature be
ruled constitutional and valid.
Article 48 of the Constitution pre-
scribes the course to be taken by
the Legislature when Bill is re-
turned to it by the King "with his
objections" The Legislature "shall
enter the objections at large on their
journal and proceed to reconsider
it." This is mandatory. Nothing
whatever is left to the discretion of
the Legislature. They shall enter
the King's objections on their journal
and proceed to reconsider the Bill.
i'If after such reconsideration it
shall be approved by two"thirds
vote of all the elective members of
the Legislature it shall become
q law" And the converse of the
proposition must be true: if the
Legislature does not reconsider such

ASHLAND, Wis.,, June 16.-The land
office officials to-day received the de-
clslon of the commissioner of general
land office in its action in respect to the
case of Tolliver against the Wisconsin
Central railroad. 1t sustains the de-
clsion of the register and receiver that
they were dlyested of jurisdiction in the
case when the patents were issued to
the railroad company. This settles the
whole matter, and thousands of acres
of land which were thrown omen for
settlement by order of Commissioner
sparks revert to the Wisconsin Central
Hallway company. The land involved
In the decision is situated on the line of
the Wisconsin Central railway, about
twenty-five miles from Ashland. 1t is
within the indemnity limits of the road.
In August. 1887, Commissioner Sparks
issued an order throwing the land open
to settlement. Filings were made sub
Ject to the right of the railway by about
twenty settlers, and this one case was
singled out to test the matter. The
company had thirty days in which to
answer, which they did, and day was
set for hearing. During this time
patents were issued by the government
to.the railway. When the hearing came
the Land officers here decided that as
the patents had been issued they were
dlvested of jurisdiction, and the depart-
ment upholds them. The railroad there
fore owns the land.

California's Boom for Blaine Due
to the Success of Democratic
Coasters at ST. Louis.

to the Success of Democratic
Coasters at ST. Louis.
CHICAGO, June 16.-Decidedly the
feature of to-day has been the arrival
of the Pacific coast delegation shouting
for Blaine. Their enthusiasm and re-
ception are described in other dis
patches. The California people declare
Blaine is their first and only choice.
They say they are not talking
of other candidates, and that Blaine
will surely be nominated. II the Pacific
coast Democrats had not gone to st.
Louis with their red bandanas and, by
the enthusiasm and constancy of their
advocacy of Thurman's nomination, sue
ceeded not only in carrying their point,
but in attracting to themselves the at
tention of the entire country, and secur-
ing the honor of the temporary chair
manShip of the convention for one of
their delegates, this Blaine movement
would probably not have come out of
California. But the coast Republicans
pricked up their ears at the record made
by their Democratic neighborS, and the
thought came to them to achieve greater
success. Whereas the Democrats had
named the vice president, the Repub-
licans determined to nominate a presi-
dent. Always Blaine men, and his most
enthusiastic admirers, they naturally
turned to Blaine as their piece de re-
sistance. Their hope was to form the
nucleus of courage and enthusiasm.

country would gather snd form an ire

boom is failure and must be failure.
MIR. Blaine's sons say it would be use
less to nominate their father. Gen.
Clayton says no true friend of Blaine's
will talk OF nominating him, that
IF BLAINE BE NOMINATED
at all it must be in the natural course of
events, without any juggling to prevent
nomination, and with the consent of
all the candidates who have entered the
contest in good faith, supposing Mr..
Blaine to be out of the way by his own
action. Joseph Manley, of Maine;
William Walter Phelps, ex-senator
Platt, of New York; National
Chairman Jones and others of
Mr.. Blaine's close friends make the
same statement. AT this writing it is
clearly the sense of the convention,
under the influence of the strongest
men in the party, that the nomination
OF Blaine is impossible except in the ex-
trelnely remote contingency that the
convention ballots for days without
making choice, and the candidates
unite in withdrawing in Mr.. Blaine's in
tereSt.

in the request for votes. He explained
that his previous action was necessitated
by his position as chairman. Van Horn,
of Missouri, earnestly opposed the OPP
position, saying it would be utterly un-
just to such states as Connecticut,
which would furnish votes in the No
vember elections, and yet might
now be overridden u convention
by Dakota, whose people would be pow
erless to help elect president. j. M.
Bailey, of Dakota, polntedly cited an
instance in 1868, where exactly what
was now proposed had been done.
Thomas T. Miner, of Washington Ter
ritOry. elOquently pleaded that the ex-
clusion of Dakota and Washington Ter
ritory from statehood was not the fault
of their people or the Republican party.
The people of Dakota and Washington,
he claimed, were perhaps even more vi
tally interested than many states of
long legal standing in the selection of a
proper candidate.
DAKOTA'S CLAIM TO VOTE
in the convention as state, not ter
ritory-that is, to be allowed ten dele
gates on roll-call instead of two-was
then formally ratified by the national
committee, 27 to9.
j. p. Sayer and S. E. Magill, two Illi-
n0is men, asked by letter to the COM
mittee to be allowed to represent
Alaska in the convention. Their con-
nection with Alaskan affairs, or whether
they had ever seen Alaska, was not
shown. The request was tabled, and
Alaska was left unrepresented. Mr..
Littler, of Illinois. who said he had been
greatly embarrassed by the number of
applications to him for admission to the
convention, endeavored to have the
matter of tickets reOpened. The COM
mittee, however, after listening few
moments to Carkson, of Iowa. on the
subject, deemed the idea impracticable.
Adjournment was then taken until

AITKIN, Minn., June 16.-The steamer
Lawn arrived here to-day and brought
down the latest news of the high water
On the upper Mississippi. AT Pokegema
dam Thursday thirteen gates were
raised, besides four sluice gates. Yes
terday four more gates were
raised in order to protect the
reservoir. When the thirteen were
opened it held it's level for
while. but they found it necessary to
get up in the night and raise some 9TH
ers, and still the water pours over the
dam. If it were not for big swamp
near Pokegama lake the dam would
burst and then there would be disas-
trous overflow. At Grand Rapids
three canoes are running in and
out of McCabe's saloon taking
customers to and from the bay. Chairs
in McDermids hotel are afoat. All
travelling is done by canoe, as steam
boats cannot get up farther than Split
Hand on account of a twenty-mile log
jam at that place. Water flows up
stream, caused by the river making cut
offs. All along the line of the river, for
miles wide, water is from three to five
feet deep on ordinary ground. Settlers
are in bad shape. The oldest inhab-
liant never saw the river as
high as at the present time.
Some have driven their stock to the
highest points attainable. and it is well
they did. Two parties left here in q
boat, and went up country on almost
bee line, going over three and four-railed
fences without getting out of the boat.
AT Aitkin the river is gradually rising,
and from reports received a further
rise of at least two feet to the already
wild and rushing water may be ex-
pected. Standing OH Fourth street, in
this village, the Mississippi resembl es
a vast lake.
