THE ENTERING WEDGE.


Article 20 of the Constitution is
one of the mile stones which mark
progress in the history of this
country.
1t is the section which prevents
a Government officer from holding
a seat in the Legislature. 1t also fur
ther provides that emo member of
the Legislature shall, DURING THE
TIME FOR WHICH HE is ELECTED, be
appointed to any civil office under
the Government, except that of a
member of the Cabinet"
In February last. John w. Kalua
was elected Representative to the
Legislature. The time for which
he was elected" was two years.
The fact that he has resigned, after
the lapse of only eight months, does
not reduce the " time for which he
was elected " to eight months. If
this were so the whole virtue of
the constitutional provision would
be eliminated, for the Devil could
most effectually be whipped
around the stump" by any office
hungry member resigning as soon
as the session was over and filling
the Office which he had beforehand
agreed with the Cabinet he should
receive as pay for his support in
the House while it was in session.
The constitutional provision does
not allow of any such palpable
evasion as this.
Apparently, however, the Minis
ter of the Interior has not heard of
Article 20 of the Constitution, for
although Mr.. Kalua is constitution
ally prohibited from accepting a
Government Office for two years
from last February, and Mr.. Spen-
Ger is constitutionallY prohibited
from making such an appointment,
Mr.. Kalua has been appointed by
Mr.. Spencer an Agent to take &C.
acknowledgements to Labor Contracts
for the District of Waikiki.
We suspect, however, that Mr..
Spencer may have again been con-
sulting with the Finance Commit
tee as to his rights, powers and
duties, and that they have taken
him in with another of their "horse-
shed legal opinions.
Whether he has taken bad advice
or no advice at all has, however,
no bearing upon the rights of the
matter.
1t makes no difference that the
appointment is to Il small office.
The principle is the same as though
Mr.. Kalua had been appointed a
Judge of the Supreme Court. 1t is
the first step, the entering wedge,
toward breaking down a whole
some constitutional provision.
The only lawful, honorable course
for Mr.. Spencer to follow is to recall
the appointment, if 1t was made in.
advertently. If it has been made
willfully and knowingly he is un-
questlonably liable to impeachment
for violation of the Constitution.

:" WHY ?"
ALOHA TO THEE.

Because I'm a woman whose life
Is devoted to killing this immoral strife,
cut with vengeance all knights OF the
pen
Who trail in the mire high morals of
men.
| read all effusions from the realst's pot
And never retract, and say did not.
l await with great pleasure your little
book.
You boast OF your realism-I hope may
look
And see by the vision which alone
possess.
There may be a. mote" frankly con-
fess,
You shall pluck from my eve, till nothing
is left,
When you teach me that black is of
blackness bereft.
Your SMILES are pretty-still you write
OF our woe
And puzzle your brain - wondering
Why it is so. -
Personal umbrage l hope you'll not
make,
Tho | note your conversion in chasi-
tvs " sake,
l give you my hand in warm, welcome
clasp,
% God speed your efforts in the great
moral blast"

TEXAS MINES AND MINERALS.

The minerals OF Coke county as yet
| have never been developed. There is
| known to exist coal measure in thgt
section and some of the product OBJ
tnined from it is of the best variety. 1t
is perfectly free from slate and sulphur
and looks TO be fully as good as the best
anthracite coal to be obtained in the
United States. 1t is believed by many
that salt IN immense quantities can be
obtained in that county at depth of
less than 500 feet. .
Weatherford Constitution: A reporter
of the Constitution was to-day shown
samples of the Parker county coal mines
which had been brought in by some gen.
tleman from the country. The samples
seen was surface coal and had been water
Stacked, but still it did not require an
expert to determine that the quality is
not an inferior grade of coal. Col.
Stone, n member of the Texas coal and
fuel company, Informed the reporter
that this coal makes fine coke, which is
always test as to the quality of the ar
ticle.
In regard to the Weatherford, Mineral
Wells and Northwestern mines the Con-
stilution says in an interview with Presi-
dent Stone: The coal shaft is down
about seventy-five feet and all nicely
cased to that depth, the timbers are
being placed on the ground for the hoist
ING machinery aud for the engine and
machine houses. As soon as the road is
completed to the mines we will COM
mence hauling lumber to build boarding
houses and homes for the miners. When
asked il he had made arrangements for
miners, his reply was that he had not
and that they were very scarce, but he
anticipates no trouble in securing them
when needed. The depot has been
located on the west side of North Main
street just south of Mr. Blacks resi-
dence, and the work will commence on
this handsome two-story structure just
as soon as the plans are completed. The
company will be selling coal in Weather
ford not later than December 10.
