FRIDAY MARCH o, 1894.
THE CONSTITUTIONAL CON-
VENTION.

If the convention bill passes III
its original form, the President ano
the Executive and Advisory
Councils will sit in the Constitu-
tional body and control it by
majority of one. Under normal |
conditions this cut-and dried pro-
gram might seem arbitrary and be
come offensive; but it must be re-
membered that Hawaii is on
a revolutionary basis and that |
every safeguard needs to be
be built or retained about the gains
of the January revolution. Open
as the vote for the eighteen popu-
lar delegates will be to the partici-
patton of all classes who shall take
the oath-and what native knowing
the want of sanCtity which attaches
to political pledge will decline to
take it? - there would be
the greatest danger i'll throw
ing the election of the entire
personnel of the convention
open to the voting herd. Its net
result might be monarchy or any
thing else that ignorance and
prejudice could devise. 1t follows,
therefore, if good results are to be
had from the work of the Conven-
ton, which must be that of build
ing a Government Oh the preseni
foundation, that a barrier must be
raised against all who nigh,
seek to nullify, i'll the tex,
of the new Constitution, the
public good which has been derived
from last years uprising. That
barrier can be readily supplied by
the membership of the present Gov
ernment. The principles of that
body polite are known to all; the
course of its action may be fairly
predicted; it has the confidence Of
loyal citizens throughout the group.
Why, then, should it not sit in the
convention? Its presence there
means but one thing, namely, that
what has been gained for good gov
eminent by arms shall not be lost
by charter.
The proposal to pay the members
Of the convention for their outlay
of time and care, seems to- us a
good one. The laborer is worthy
of his hire" Many good and wise
men cannot neglect their business
to attend the lengthy deliberations
of a public body without be-
ing paid for it. No doubt
young Abraham Lincoln, who
had no share in the business in
terests" of Illinois, would have
been kept out of the Legislature OF
that State if there had not been a
salary attached to the office. Like
wise James A. Garfield, at one
period of his life, would have been
debarred from a constitutional con-
vention if there had been no COM
pensation attached to a seat in it.
Most of the great constructive minds
of America were rounded out and
polished by the coarse grind OF
poverty. For all we know there
may be, in men to whom the pro-
posed salary would mean the differ
ence between running behind and
keeping even, the making of the
master spirit of Hawaii in its career
of future greatness and prosperity.
By all means, therefore, give such
men a chance to enter the conven.
ton and do their best, unembar-
raised by the thought that the de
liberations of each day involves a
loss of the means of livelihood to
them.

Furnishing Unruly London Apprentices

1t will be a revelation to many
people to learn that the practice of
Furnishing unruly apprentices in the
CITY of London by various terms OF inn
prisonment. without being brought
publicly before police magistrate, is
still carried into effect The power OF
ordering such punishment is vested in
the city chamberlain, and the offenses
for which the apprentices are pun
ished are absence, coming late of q
morning. idleness and insubordination.
The lads are confined IN the cells Of
the old prison in New Bridge street.
and are not permitted 20 leave the
building on any account during their
term of confinement The only exer-
else they are allowed IS taken on the
premises. and consists of walking up
and down the corridor for periods OF
half an hour or twenty minutes before
and after the large doors are opened.
In .he cells the lads are permitted "a
read. but this IS the only recreation
allowed. Their diet is the same as in
ordinary prisons. and consists of bread,
potatoes. skiIly. hot coffee and water.

Gnpleyss Of Civil Engineers Are Not

'He was the best surveyor and
draughtsman in my employ" said
well-known civil engineer Of this city
few days ago. referring to man
whom he had just discharged. Il dis
covered short time ago that he was
keeping private note book, and, after
notifying him that he must stop it.
and again learning that he was con-
tinuing the practice, was obliged to
discharge him."
1 asked the gentleman to explain
what he meant by keeping a private
note book"
"a surveyor" said he, Gin doing
piece of work makes minutes as he goes
along of the lines he runs, of the vari-
Gus points marking the bounds OF the
lands he is surveying, and all such
data as Is not only necessary for the
drawing of his plans, but also incident
ally that which may aid him in the
case of any other survey being made
later on.
"This data, you see, really consti-
tutes a sort of capital or stock in trade,
for If the party owning the land ever
wishes another survey of it for any
purpose he will naturally apply to that
same surveyor, who, having these old
memoranda. can do the work easier
and more cheaply than any other snr-
veyor. Oftentimes. after many years
have elapsed and old landmarks have
passed away, those minutes become
very valuable.
Consequently a civil engineer al
ways wishes to keep these in his own
hands, and men in his employ are not
allowed TO make copies of minutes Of
surveys which they make while in his
employ. Otherwise, an old employe,

moved to Milwaukee and took up tht
practice of his profession, in which he
soon acquired a high reputation. In
1865 he was elected city attorney. In
1878 he was nominated by the demo
Gratis for county judge of Milwaukee,
but declined. In 1877 he was offered
the democratic nomination for gov
ernor of the state, but declined.
In 1879 he accepted the nomina-
tion for the same Office and received a
large vote, reducing considerably the
usual republican majority. In 1880
he was voted for by the democratic
members Of the legislature as United
States senator from Wisconsin. In the
same year he was nominated by the
bar of the state as q member of the
state supreme court In 1856 President
Cleveland rendered him q place on the
bench of the supreme court of the Dis
trict of Columbia, but this honor was
also declined. In 1887 he accepted the
appointment by President Cleveland as
United States judge for the eastern
district of Wisconsin to succeed Judge
Charles E. Dyer, who resigned When
Judge Walter Q. Gresham accepted
President Cleveland's invitation TO en-.
