for the public but for a private person;
that it made no difference whether that
private person was the King or a citizen;
that having been done for private indi-
vidual it should be paid for by him, and
the Minister had no authority to bind
the public treasury to pay for it; if the
Minister had attempted to bind the
treasury his act was void as against the
Government.
This position has been fully sustained
by the Court.
This establishes the principle here that
a government official cannot do any
more than the law authorizes him to do,
and any act which he may do in excess
of his authority is void as against the
government This is most important
principle to establish in defense of the
treasury, as otherwise it might at any
time be depleted and bankrupted by a
dishonest official who might make con-
tracts for the benefit of his friends to an
unlimited extent, and simply because he
happened to be a Minister the public
would have to foot the bills.
The voters have to thank the Reform
party for establishing this principle, as
we'll as for saving to the treasury the
81 900 which the foundations cost, fol
had the Re-actionary party remained il
power it would have been paid with
out whimper.

JOHN BOWLER VS.. THE HAWAIIAN
GOVERNMENT.

AN IMPORTANT PRINCIPLE SETTLED.
The above entitled case, tried at the
January term of the Supreme Court and
decided in favor of the Government, in
wolves question of vital importance to
the country, one which has been re-
peatedly decided in England and the
United States, but which has not before
arisen here.
The principle involved was the right
OF public officer to bind the Govern
ment to do that which the law did not
authorize, and to pledge the Treasury to
pay for work done for private parties.
The facts of the case were that during
1856 the King decided to light the palace
and grounds with electric light at his
own expense, and in order to lessen the
expense an arrangement was made with
the hotel people to light the hotel for a
certain sum per month.
He bought and paid for on his own &C
count and with his own money, two in
candescent electric light dynamos and a
boiler and steam engine to run the
same.
This cost number of thousand dol
lars, and for the purpose of tightening
the financial strain, the Minister of the
Interior, Mr.. Aholo, made an agreement
with Mr.. Bowler that he (Bowler)
should build the foundations for the
Kings electric light plant and that the
Government should pay for it

SIAMESE TWINS OR DEVIL-F1SH--
WHICH?

Sometimes there are monstrosities in
nature and sometimes there are mon
strosities in the actions of men. Years
not very long ago, the Siamese Twins
excited lively and widely extended
curiosity among naturalists and the peO-
pie of various countries. They were long
on exhibition in the United States and
in Europe. These Twins were united by
a single cartilagineous ligature, which
scientists nor surgeons dared to cut, and
thus the singular twain were held to-
gether through life, thinking nearly the
same thoughts and directed by like
svmpathies and wills. But in Honolulu
has lust been born and brought to public
observation, something even more ano-
malous than the Siamese Twins. The
Re-actionist list of candidates for Mobiles
and Representatives in this city is as ex-
centric as anything ever exhibited by
Barnum, the great American Snowman,
who claims to have 'the greatest show
on earth" There is nothing in Barnum' g
list OF monstrosities and absurdities sur

wings of the strange combination of the

and Wilcox. 1t is united by the cartl-
lage of expected public plumber. Sud

Mr.. BUSH came out strong at Kamoi-
liili on the anti-Asiatic plank. This
may indeed be called his second advent
on the Chinese question if reports are
true. He doubtless remembers the few
remarks he made on Wednesday, Aug
ust %, 1880, when, addressing from the
palace steps delegation of working
men, 90 he detained on the advantages
of $1O,OOO,0O0 loan and million
Cinnamon, drawing attention to the
large amount to be derived from the
hospital tax put upon these latter, etc. If
is forgetful, the newspapers of that
period will refresh his memory We
call attention to this in no hooking spir-
it, but merely. to show the completeness
OF his conversion, and to suggest that he
apply lin nautical phrase) a "boom guy
to prevent his swinging back again.
