All governments, the Provisional
government OC Hawaii included,
are composed of men; and all men,
even the best of them, royalists ex-
cepted, are admitted to be fallible.
It is impossible that the present
administration should not make
occasional mistakes and afford
their opponents an opportunity to
pick flaws. But to select the
financial policy of the government
as the special point of attack, indi-
Gates grade of intelligence about
on a par with the vipor who gnawed
a file. All he got for his trouble was

PACIFIC COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER
AUGUST To- 1928.

An interesting diplomatic Incl
dent occurred in New York lately.
The Italian consul at that port had
an attachment served on him to
recover money deposited with him
to insure the performance of con-
tract to supply coal to the Italian
war feet then ia that port. 1t
seems that the contractor owed
merchant 5000, for which amount
the latter had a judgment for the
debt. The consul refused tao,eeeey
the legal summons, and appealed
to the Italian minister at Washing
ton, who in turn appealed to the
American government. 4 long
correspondence ensued which pro-
missed to result in international
complications. At this juncture
TIE contractor paid the debt of
5000, which fortunately terminated
this diplomatic trouble. In COM
menting on the case. an Amerl-
can journal says During the
discussion of the case it was
developed that the State de-
partment does not regard con-
sular officers exempt from legal
proceedings, civil or criminal, un-
less it is so stipulated by treaty
with the country which they serve,
and that inviolability of this char
scter appertains only to diplomatic
or other personal representatives of
foreign rulers"

REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE.

\ few days ago the Bulletin con-
tanned an article on public finances
which concluded with the assertion
that at the end of the first six
months of its existence the Pro-.
visional government showed AM
actual cash deficit of 160,577.65!
We take this to mean. if it meansl
anything, that the expenditures
have exceeded the revenue by the
amount named, and that the def
cheney has been made up, in whole
or in part by borrowing. OF course
no intimation is given of the pro-
cess by which this result is arrived
at, and no data are furnished
from which the reader might judge
for himself as to the correctness of
the statement made. Admitting
however, for the sake of argument,
that these figures are correct, what
inference can be fairly drawn there
from in any way derogatory to the
present government, either abso-
lutely, or by comparison with its
predecessors? Absolutely none.

HAS Succeeded willing.

Mr.. H. J. Rhodes, lately of
Southern California, was appointed
several weeks ago by the Bureau of
Agriculture and Forestry to sue
ceed Mr.. Carl Willing as nursery
man at the government nursery.
Members of the bureau are loud in
their praise of the present manage
ment of the nursery, and declare
that since it passed under the man
agement of Commissioner Marsden
and Mr.. Rhodes it has been loom
ing up to the satisfaction of all con-
cerned.

President Dole Absent.

President Dole was not at his
Office in the executive building
yesterday, owing to slight indispo-
sition. His absence caused an adj
journment of the usual Cabinet
meeting until this morning at
80 o'clock. 1t is understood
that the matter of the application
for bonds Of the Chinese of the

The Bulletin may possibly be
surprised and will certainly not be
pleased to be told that during
the first six months of last year,
under the administration of Messrs.
Parker, Wideman IL Co, there was
a similar deficit, that is, an ex.
penditure in excess of revenue,
amounting to considerably over
two hundred thousand dollars.
Pleasing or not, this statement is
strictly true. If the Bulletin cares
to dispute the fact we are prepared
TO give the exact figures Eand full
data from which the public can
verify the result for themselves.
But this is after all matter of
comparatively minor Importance.
We merely refer to it in passing
to show the champions of the
lost cause what very slippery
ground they stand on, and to re-
mind them of the danger of throw
ing missiles which are liable tc
come back on them like a boomer
ang and break their own heads.

If the Bulletin were familiar
with the operations of the Ha-
waiian Treasury, or, if knowing
the facts it cared to tell the truth
about them, it would have to con-
fess that it is the regular and Gus
tomary thing for the expenditures
to exceed the revenue for the first
six months of each year, the de-
ficiency being made good, in whole
or in part as the case may be, by
the receipts from taxes, all Of which
become due and most of which are
paid In the last six months. The
taxes for the year, as everybody
knows, are not assessed until July.
We trust it is unnecessary to ex-
plain, even to the readers of the
Bulletin, that taxes have to be
