Third Party Meeting at Scotland Necl

AZ OCotiauO NICK laSt SATURDAY iIe
Alliance at regular meeting passed
resolutions that it would have moth
ing to do with the ST. Louis demands,
but would stand by the Ocala demands.
Those. outside knew nothing of this
until afterwards. When the doors
were opened 10 persons assembled,
with thirty colored men. A. A. White,
Allianceman, called the meeting to or.
der, j. A. White, Allianceman, was
chairman, and A. L. Pennin gton sec

for the object of the meeting. The
general call for meetings to be held all
over the United States On Saturday
was read from the Pfogressice Farmer,
and then the St. Louis demands
and platform were read. Straight
| Democrats asked if the meeting was
under the St. Louis call, and the
chairman said it was, but not for the
purpose of taking steps to send dele
gates to the Omaha convention, but
simply to ratify the demands. There
were signs of breeze from the first,
but when w. II. Shields arose and
announced as president of the Scot
land Neck Alliance that his Alliance
had no sympathy with the st. Louis
affair he was cheered by the straight
Democrats of the Alliance and others,
A deafening yell was raised. AT this
juncture Hon. w. H. Kitchen arose

Democrats had come into the meeting

North Carolina by the "Committee Of
Public Safety" of Rowan county,

which happened on March 18th,
but can find nothing of more con-
sequence than the cutting off of
the schooner Fair American by
Kameeiamoku, which interesting
event took place in 1870.
The general impression however
is that Kamehameha III. was born
on the 18th of March, but investi-
cation by Fernandez has resulted
in fixing the date as the 1lth Of
August, 1913, and Prof. Alexander
has adopted this conclusion. The
sum of the matter is that we shall
have to do honor to j. A. Cummins,
the Fair American,or St. Patrick or
else draw on our imaginations.
Many will probably prefer to draw
on their imaginations.
After all, the precise date is of
little consequence, and it is perhaps
as we'll not to inquire too nicely
into certain matters of history, lest
facts dissolve in legend. What
would become of Christmas and
Easter if one insisted on documen-
tary proof that these dates really
represent anything. 1t is sufficient
that we honor on the 18th Of March

brance of his people and whose

JUICE HARTwELL contributes a
letter to this issue of the ADvER-
TIsER, in which the idea is thrown
out that the rule permitting &C
cused persons to testify might, in
a certain class of cases, be abolished
with advantage. There can be no
doubt that the existence of this
rule leads to a vast deal of perjury
by the innocent as well as the
guilty. 1t is equally true that the
frequency of this crime is a great
evil, tending to demoralize all who
frequent the courts, and bringing
the course of justice into disrepute.
To this extent it must be admitted
that the abolition of the old rule of
law has been productive of evil.
It may even be conceded that as
things go, the power to give evil
dence does not help the case of the
average client much.
We cannot, however, admit that
the reasons suggested are sufficient
to justify a return to rule of law
which was the work of a barbarous
age, and which is indissolubly as
ISOLATED with the history of mans
inhumanity to man. 1t is not just
to deprive the innocent of the op-
portunity to affirm his innocence
by solemn oath merely because
the guilty will make use of a SINH
lar opportunity to commit perjury
Neither is it just to deprive the
honest and straightforward Of this
privilege because certain men who
are really innocent will yield tt
the temptation to fortify their limo
cence by little lying. The right
OF the accused to be heard In his
own defense, it seems to US, ii
something which justice requires
and something it can never be jus
to deprive him of.
At the same time the evils re
ferred to by Judge Hartwell d,
most undoubtedly exist, and they
are not trifing. The subject is on
on which we should be glad to re
ceiye correspondence.

MARCH nth.

A correspondent inquiries what
the 18th of March is celebrated for.
What indeed? 1t is st. Pasrick's
Day, and also we believe the natal
day of Hon. ]. A. Cummins, but
these events, though not without
importance, are hardly sufficient to
make Hawaiian national holiday.
We have searched the list of dates
in Hawaiian history, printed as an
appendix to Alexanaer's History,
to find some event of importance
