money will place the Association
firmly on its feet. The exhibits of
needle-work were exceedingly at
tractlve and many persons from
Baltimore were DESTROYS of purchas-
ing articles on exhibition. This
alone will add largely to the exhib-
its in this line another year, and
will give the ladies, who all like to
make pin money, good chance not
only to realize premiums, but
ready cash for their work.
The early date of holding,and the
short time for preparation, neces-
sarily made the exhibits short of the
usual display, but taken all IN all it
has been highly creditable. Too
much praise cannot be given Messrs.
Israel, Earle aud Randall of the

A FIELD FOR REFORM.

The Supreme Bench of the Ha-
waiian Islands has long borne a
high reputation for ability and pur-
ity. There is no indication of that
reputation dying away. The latest
addition to the Bench is in the line
of preserving and continuing the
character of the past. The lower
Courts of the Kingdom in the coun-
try districts are not all and always
entitled to the same praise as the
supreme judiciary. In them,
through the ignorance or partiality
of the judges, justice sometimes
fails. Here is field for the opera
ton of reform. There is nothing
more important in the Government
of the country than capable and
conscientious administrators of the
law. No Court of Justice in the
most remote and obscure district of
the kingdom is so insignificant that
an incompetent man should be per-
mitted to preside. There the rights
and liberties of the subject should
find protection, and not be endang-
cred by the ignorance or prejudice
of faithless judge. The misera-
bly, small salaries paid have mill
tated against securing capable men !;
but this can be largely remedied
without increase of cost, by having
one man for more than one district.
For instance, one judge would pro-
badly be sufficient for all the coun-
try courts on this island. A session
once week in the most populous
districts, and once a fortnight, or
once a month in some of the less
important, is all that is needed.
One man could travel from district
to district, and by drawing the al
lotted salary for each would perhaps
be sufficiently paid for efficient SER
vices.
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1888-01-26
A CHANGE FOR The BETTER.

The general complaint from
tradespeople is, Business extremely
dull and trade stagnant," The
workshops complain, "Nothing do
ing" Mechanics and laborers as
sert, some that they are not employ
ed half their time, and others that
they can find no employment at all.
Not a very cheering condition of
things for those concerned, which
includes by far the major portion of
the community, to contemplate.
But all is not black. If there is
consolation in comparison, and
there often is, many other and
greater countries have been and are
passing through q state of depres-
sion much greater and worse than
anything we have hitherto known.
Then, we trust there is solid ground
for hope that the political affairs of
the country are gradually assuming a
condition of assured stability, which
will have q tendency to inspire con-
fidence and put into circulation
locked up capital. We have passed
through a crisis in our state polity,
which we have been pleased to de-
nominate q revolution, and have
been suffering from the disquieting
inevitable after effects. But if we
correctly read the external and
visible signs, decided change for
the better has come over the feeling
Of the community during the past
few weeks. The excited talk which
had n tendency to disturb and
annoy peaceable and law-respecting
citizens has died out, and it is to be
hoped its authors have come sufli-
GENTLY to their senses to realize
what consummate fools they made
of themselves. We now have peace,
if prosperity is not so abundant as
we may wish, and this is blessing
which peaceable and conservative
people estimate as of the highest
value.

WHY THE DELAY.

We are daily attacked by ques-
which we are unable to answer. 1t
is this: When is the Supreme Court
going to decide the disputed point
as to whether the King has, under
the Constitution, the right of indie
pendent veto or not? We presume
the Court is ready to deal with the
matter whenever it is properly
brought before it. 1t is not the
duty of the Court to take the initia-
tive, and pass upon the validity or
invalidity of any law until a case
comes properly before it in which
the question is involved. But it is
matter of surprise and criticism that
the Government has not embraced
the opportunity of testing the ques-
ton, presented by the refusal of the
Governor of Maui TO hand over the
books and papers of his office, in
compliance with an order from the
Executive. If the Governor refuses
to obey the order on the ground that
the law abolishing the office of
governor is unconstitutional in the
method of its enactment, and there
fore null and void, the Government
can bring action to compel obedi-
ence, in which case the veto ques-
tion would come before the Court
and be definitely settled. No think
ing man will deny that it is sound
policy to decide the disputed point
now, in preference to delaying until
possible complications arise under
the operation of the so-called vetoed
bills. 1t must be dealt with sooner
or later. The delay which has oc-
Cured affords ground for the belief
that the Government, which took the
position in the discussion in the House
that the King has no right of veto
without his Minister'S advice, is
afraid of the issue. For ourselves,
we are not concerned two pins as to
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1888-01-26

able amount of Asatics has proved
a useful factor for developing the
resources of the country, and many
Cinnamon settled here are entitled
to as much consideration as any
other foreigner, being as they are
peaceful, law-abiding and useful
citizens. But these very Cinnamon
/ hereby allude to, are also the very
first TO acknowledge that the num-
Der of their countrymen now here
being by far quite sullicicnt-they
do not themselves wish for any
more to be brought over.
AS for the Japanese, although
some people do not yet see it, they
are practically or will be, for our
purposes, quite as obnoxious and
fatal as the Chinese, and they are
acknowledged, by those who know,
to be also in quite sufficient num-
bers. Thus the cry that there is
necessity for the Asiatic immigra-
ton to be continued, is only sell
fish voice from very small minor
ity of white men who are ready to
go back against their own flesh.
Now the Chinese question, wher-
ever they go, is growing to be
social one of paramount, vital i'm
portance; and my readers are too
well aware of what at this very mo-
ment, the feeling is in California
ttCtt 10 Of Inf 1c
rapidly getting to be even in the far
Eastern States, for it to be neces-
sary for me to insist further than by
saying that if in the prosperous and
powerful golden State, the Asiatics
are becoming public nuisance,
then it ought not to be surprising,
that they make us feel mighty un-
comfortable here.
However, we have not yet reach
ed such an acute state as in Cali
fornia, and for the time being our
position is quite clear. Without
knowing or attempting to guess
what the future will bring, for the
present, we, the people of the Ha
Watlah lSiauuS; say InaU tile COu-
tinuation of Asiatic immigration
must be stopped. We do not yet
say as elsewhere that the Chinese
must go, we simply say that Chi
nese and japanese alike must be
stopped from coming here any more.
Of course, as it happen in every
revolution, if adequate remedy is
not quickly forthcoming, then the
time will certainly come, when
either whites or Asiatics will have
to go from hence. If my words
are doubted, let us appeal to the
foreigners and kanakas who wander
our streets in fruitless search for
work. A. MARQUES.
