THE kCQu!TTAL OF WILCOX.

Tha, q person should be acquitted
OF crimF, in the face OF evidence
the strongest of which came out of
his own mouth, and in spite of only
Ii mere fcint having been made to
put defense on the stand, must be
regarded as miscarriage Of justice.
There are circumstances addncible,
however, which should serve as u
foil To the extreme pessimistic views
TINT are heard, as to the results,
both upon the public peace and the
administration Of justice, from the
acquittal of Robert W. Wilcox of
conspiracy To commit treason
Different things contribute in this
case 20 the cxtenuation, we cannot
say TO tue Justification, Of the action
OF the jury. 1t could even be justi-
lied if the principle were accepted,
that two or more wrongs make a
right. While not adopting such
principle, We must be charitable
enough 10 give weight TO its opera
ton, in such q case as that of Will
COX, upon the minds Of his simple
thinking country men, when they saw
him pushed in corner, while be-
lieYing that his conduct, wise or
otherwise in conception or execution,
was guided by considerations of
their supposed welfare.
These twelve of his peers had
seen the Government abandon the
charge against Wilcox of the higher
crime Of treason itself, although
having evidence equally con-
elusive on that score as on
the charge Of conspiracy, and
even having secured the conviction
OF mere accessory on The same
evidence for the capital Offense. AS
the jury were told by nble counsel
for the prosecution, they were as
much part of the tribunal as the
Judge himself; therefore they might
have been pardoned in considering
themselves equally privileged with
the prosecution in the matter of re-
hitting ofrenses. Whatever the let
ter of the law is on this point, it
must be remembered that the Gov
eminent is oath bound to administer
the laws without fear or favor, as
well us the jury 10 assist 1t 10 50 do
ipg wbeDeyer their services are
Fsqaieed.

measures should have been chosen,
in the fact that the Government was
not without blame in permitting the
armed band to organize and assem-
bic after receiving timely warning.
Instead Of Cancellation even such as
might have gone hand in hand with
straightforward prosecution, several
irritating elements have been allow
Ell admittance to the trials. One
such was the uncontradicted re.
port of efforts to get q jury for
conviction. Another was the shut
ling oi cases ON the calendar out of
the usual order. The Government
seemed TO look more to the triumph
of securing convictions than 10 the
acquitting itself of its own RESPONSE
hility in the matter. 1t is COM
mon saying that a man cannot be
expected to do more than his duty,
and the same principle of judging
must be applied 10 a Government.
In addition to the foregoing in
stances of irritation, nothing could
have been more calling to the native
people, as n whole, than certain edi-
torial articles and communications
in the journal usually regarded as
the official medium of the Govern
ment. These were designed to be
more inhanmatory in effect than
anything published in some native
papers for which writer's in the Adj
vertiscr advocated their suppression.
After having got off an excited de-
mand for judicial vengeance on the
morning after the insurrection, the
Advertiser during the trials tacitly
suggested the abolition of native
juries and the disfranchisement OF
Hawalians. These things undoubt-
edlv made the natives feel in the
position of rats in pit, and, il
justification for their traversing
of solemn obligations in the jury
box cannot be found in the circum-
stances, it does not require great
degree of generous perception to
see therein much ground of extenu'
alton.

THE KINGDOM OF KEALlA."

EDITOR BULLETIN: Some months
ago / came to kealia and obtained
employment from the Makee Sugar
Co. at Kapaa. l, as well as the rest
of the employees, boarded at the
company's store, the hash depart
ment of which was presided over by
as uninviting a specimen Of the fol-
lowers of Confucius as it has ever
been my fortune to see, and entirely
incapable of running even such a
kitchen as the Kappa store afforded.
That the food was, in some in
stances, both insufficient and of an
inferior quality, can be testified TO
by every employee there, and that
it was improved later was owing en-
tirely to a general complaint from
all the employees. One Sunday
morning | came in for breakfast and
was served with a small piece of
cold meat and some cold potatoes.
! demonstrated, was answered in an
offensive tone by the gentleman with
the pigtail, and slapped his face.
On the following Monday | was Wis
tied by Mr.. Fairchiid, the financial
manager of the company, who en-
larged very much on the brutality
of the act. l explained my provo
cation, and it ended In me being
told to pay So or be prosecuted for
assault and battery. My financial
circumstances at the time not justi-
flying me in leaving my position |
paid it, but in paying them 50, l
don't know TO whom, it set me think
ing of Russia and the Nihilists, and
verify found there are more strange
things in heaven and earth than l
had dreamed of in my philosophy.
| found, for instance, that Mr.. Fair
child charged 81 wharfage, from
any Of the employees on the planta-
ton, for the landing of key of
wine or case of any kind of liquor.
No doubt Mr.. Fairchild will claim
that his object in charging that, is
to prevent liquor from landing or
coming here at all, but by what right
does he charge it? If, on the other
hand, his object is to that effect,
why not stop its landing altogether
l think he has as much right to do
the one as the other. have heard
again, that these contributions-so
to speak-are intended for fund
to extend the wharf, and the stop
ping of liquors coming here would
materially diminish the swelling OF
that fund. 1 have also heard OF
people quite Independent of Fair
child OF the company having liquor
landed, refused to pay the dollar
and not been made to do it. The
So that he got from me without
judge or jury don't know what be-
came off, but perhaps like the
whisky tariff it went to swell the
wharf construction fund, which By
this time ought to be stretched (the
wharf mean) as far as Mr.. Fair
child's conscience. | am sailor
and have travelled some, but | never
heard of such very liberal wharfage
rates till | came to this exceedingly
small but very autocratic "kingdon
of Kealia."
