SLIPsHOD AND BUEGLIYG.

The result Of the committee in
vestigation in the matter Of the
election of Kunuiakea has failed
to seat Klemme, as it lowers MS
score by seventeen-twentieths of a
vote, but it shows that be had good
reason for supposing that he might
have been elected. The work OF
the inspectors has, in many in
stances, been Of 80 slipshod and
bunglng a character tina: differ
ence Of two votes seems practically
inappreciable. The number of re-
jected ballots which ought to have
been counted, and the counted
ballots which ought TO have been
rejected, exceeded the difference
between Klemme's poll and Kunui-
akea's twenty times over. Fortu-
nately for Kunuiakea, the various
errors about balanced each other,
so that he remains ahead. Tie
status of none of the candidates
was affected by the examination.
The moral Of all this is that the
work of supervising registration
must be put into more competent
and trustworthy hands than those
of the average inspector. The
provision in the proposed eoDstitu-
ton on this subject should be care
fully considered, and everything
done which ingenuity can devise to
secure capable and nOn-parsisan
registration officers.

PART of the town is in state OF
excitement over the sudden en-
forcement of the Sunday law, in
al its native severity. While 1t
may very well be that the authori-
ties have the law on their side, 1t is
nevertheless true that the exaction
of the uttermost farthing will only
make the law obnoxious and the
enforcers Of it odious. 1t mas been
suggested that this revival Of obsa-
lescent prohibitions Is simply part
of a "deep-laid scheme" to get Them
stricken from the books. This
would accord with Mr.. Emmeluth's
proposal to stop the Sunday con-
certs of the Portuguese band, in
order to make people feel the whole
weight of the tyranny under which
they are supposed to be groaning.

qualification. There are plenty OF
brain workers who are not paid
$500 a year, whether they earn it
or not. 1t is important that the
personnel of the upper house should
not be of such character as to
place it out of touch with the
great mass of the people.
There are other particulars in
which amendments may judicious-
ly be made, to which attention will
undoubtedly be called in the Conven-
ton.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1894-06-05
THE FRANCHISE.

The topic of the elective fran
chise is one which will absorb the
attention of the Convention for
some time. 1t has been referred to
a committee, which has not, how
ever, yet been appointed. If the
pace which was set yesterday is
maintained, the committee will
make a speedy report. 1t is not
likely that better solution of the
vexed problem of the franchise will
be reached by the committee than
is offered in the draft under discus
sion. At the same time, the result
of their deliberations will be await
ed with much interest. There is no
doubt that the plan of the Gov
eminent is far from ideal. 1t does,
however, represent some advance
upon the Constitution of 1887. We
confess to feeling a strong sympa-
thy with Mr.. Emmeluth's plea for
strictly combining the franchise
to citizens, but to carry out such
a plan in our complex society is
almost impossible. If naturaliza-
ton is insisted upon as a prerequi-
site to voting, then we must aban-
don the provision which allows no
body to naturalize except citizens
of countries with which Hawaii
has treaty stipulations on this
subject. As we have no such treaty
with Portugal, to insist upon
naturalization at this time would
distranchise every Portuguese in
the country.
Why cannot a compromise be
devised which will meet these diff
cultles on both sides Let the
certificate of special service, pro-
vided for in Article II, entitle its
holder, not to the privileges of citi-
zenship, but to become naturalized
without fulfilling the conditions
ordinarily required. This is al
ready provided FOR in Section 3 of
Article II, and it ought to be suffi-
cient. There will then be nothing
to prevent any faithful supporter of
the Government from sharing in
the privileges of the ballot. If any
such are disfranchised it will be by
their own act. There can be no
possible reason why every resident
of Hawaii should not become a citi-
zen.
The passage of Section ) of Arti-
Gle II will make some of its other
provisions superhuous.

THE Limitation upon the liberty
OF the press, which was criticised
in the ADVERTISER yesterday, was
stricken from the Constitution yes
terday with hardly a dissenting
voice. In It's place, the power has
been vested in the Legislature to
suppress indecent publications, a
provision which is sorely needed,
in view of the disgusting obscenity
with which the pages of some roy
alist journals have recently been
sullied. Such publications would
not be tolerated anywhere, and
they are a disgrace to Hawaii.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1894-06-05
NOT TIE RIGHT MAN.

Mr.. Thee. II. Davies has re-
ouested the Provisional Govern
ment to appoint him as its repre-
sentative to the International
Conference about to be held at
Ottawa, Canada.
1t is very mild indeed to charac-
terize this application as extraor-
binary. If commissioned by this
Government to represent it would
not Mr.. Davies have to address the
convention as follows: Gentle
men, the Government l represent
is q very bad lot of traitors. 1t has
established conspiracy and misrule
and its members deserve capital
punishment-2d Samuel, 21stchap-
ter, % verse. They have de-
throned a good, great and pure
woman, and in this they have been
aided by a lot of profane mission
aries, who possess no morality
at all"
After this prologue, which is
mere condensation of Mr.. Davies
spoken and written words, how
could he possibly make a speech
which would commend his Govern
ment to the convention?
The Hawaiian gazette., 1894-06-05

ton, but none that is just aud
reasonable.
The policy of the Executive on
the subject of annexation finds an
unequivocal expression in the
direct Authority vested in the Pre-
sident, Cabinet and Senate to nego-
tate treaty Of union with the
United States of America. II has
been suggested that such refer
ence is out of place in the ConsIi-
tuition, but We believe it to bs
thoroughly appropriate. The Pro-
visional Government was establish
ed for the specific purpose of Sc
curing union with America. That
was the object of the revolution.
1t will not cease to be q chief aim
of the Republic of Hawaii, and
this fact may be and should be
distinctly set forth in the Constitu-
ton itself.
The best commentary on the
Constitution, however, is the Con-
stitution itself, and we commend
the proposed draft published this
morning 10 the earnest considera-
ton of our readers.

CONVENTION SCRAPS.

The smell of new paint is still
strong in Convention Hall. 1t is
better than the scent of old mon.
archy.
Surrounded by hostile delegates,
the Bulletin reporter feels like
Daniel in the lions den.
The Convention will not be a
Quaker meeting-with Kalua in it.
These notes are called Conven-
ton Scraps in anticipation of the
coming scraps in the Convention.
D. H. Hitchcock is the only
member of the Convention who
was also a member of that of 1854.
He has been in six different Legis-
latures, and was Vice President of
the one which elected Lunalilo
King.
A row Of chairs has been put into
the back part of the hall for vis-
itors. Now, where ia that rail. Mr.
Rosell?

SUNDAY SCHOOL ASSOCIATION
Its Delegates Meet at Kawaiahao
Yesterday.

There was full attendance of
delegates Saturday morning at Ka-
waiahao Church at the meeting Of
the Hawaiian Sunday School Asso-
citation. The Maui Association
only failed to send the usual repre-
sentatives. In the absence of Hon.
Henry Warehouse, the president,
Rev. J. Kekahuna, of Waianae,
took charge of the proceedings. In
place of Rev. E S. Timoteo, of
Waialua, the secretary, Peter N.
KahokuOluna was chosen secretary
pro tenn. The usual standing COM
mittees were appointed. After the
organization, reports were read
from the various district Sunday
school superintendent, and statis-
teal reports from the different
Sunday schools. At noon the AS
ISOLATION adjourned, to meet at
Kaumakipili Church for the after
noon session. Reports were pre-
sented by the Executive Committee
and by the treasurer.
1t was voted to authorizs the
Executive Committee to sell the re-
mainder of the Sunday School Man
ual for 1894 at half price. The treas
urer's report showed balance in
the treasury of sos, and the Lyon
Memorial fund now amounting to
nearly $500. A petition from the
Makawao Sunday Schools was
read, asking that p. n. Kahaluolu-
ma might be continued as District
Superintendent, and the Associa-
ton voted accordingly. 1t was
also voted TO authorize an assess
ment of $3.50, in order to enable
the Executive Com ittee TO pub
lish monthly Sunday School
paper. The first Sunday in Octo-
Der was appointed for a general
Sunday School rally, every MEM
Der OF the various sunday Schools
to be in attendance that day, or
send letter expressing continued
interest in the work. The Execu-
tive Committee was instructed to
prepare new form of statistical
blanks, and secure accurate returns
for publication. Adjourned to
meet again this evening.

DR.. NichoIson's Funeral.

OAKLAND, May 12.-The funeral
Of DR.. [. E. Nicholson took place
this afternoon, the body having
arrived yesterday on the steamer
from Honolulu. The services took
place at the residence, 626 Eighth

There's roast beef, fowl and
ham and knives for cutting
each separate article. For
beef, we have the celebrated
French Cook Knives that stand
without an equal for kitchen
work. Then there's the long
"Jointed," built expressly for
carving fowls. In the hands
of anyone, the obstacle in the
way of finding the second
joint is removed, the iointer
gets there while you are think
ing about it. And when you
get to ham-good sweet ham,
you want a long thin knife
that will carve so you can see
the steel through the slice.
We have the knives for this
class of work and they're good
ones. The French Cook
Knives are not remarkable for
beauty, but they are away
up for use.
For bread or cake, get a
Clauss Knife; it is always in
condition, because your cook
cannot use it for cutting meat
or splitting kindlings, it's
made for bread or cake, and
will cut without making
crumbs. No other knife will
do as we'll as the Clauss for the
purpose.
AS soon as the Iwalani
matter is definitely settled,
we expect to receive an ord
er from the government for
material enough to fence Neck
er island with the Jones Locked
Fence. Economy is the order
of the day and when the gov
eminent can get better arti-
Gle for eight cents than it
usually pays IL cents for it
will get it.

record the death of E. C. Damon,
which occurred yesterday, after a
lingering illness. He was a man
whose good qualities were not alto

community has gone out to his

THE Constitutional Convention
has set about its task with a dill
gence which is as praiseworthy as
1t is novel in Hawaiian deliberative
assemblies. If the same spirit
continues to prevail, the session
will be over in two weeks.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1894-06-05
A GRAVE RESPONSIBILITY.

The Constitutional Convention
will begin its deliberations in earn
est this morning. 1t has a very
serious undertaking before it, and
one which will require much
thought, tact and patience, if it is
to be brought to a successful issue.
If a spirit of mutual concession
prevails, the Convention will be
able to draft body of law which
will be useful, if not ideal. If
every element on either side in
sists on the complete realization of
its own peculiar opinions, nothing
but disaster can result.
The Constitution which has been
prepared by the Executive, is of
course nothing but draft, a plan
which will give the Convention
something to work on. 1t repre-
sents a compromise between the
radical and conservative extremes
of the people. This fact should be
borne in mind by those who feel
disposed to criticise it harshly be-
cause it fails to realize in every
minute detail their conception of
an ideal state. At the same time
it would be absurd to suppose it
faultless, and it should and doubt
less will be subjected to very i'm
portant notifications.
The principal differences of opin-
ion in the Convention, as among
the people, will be upon the Asiatic
question, citizenship and natural
ization, the franchise and the prop
erty qualification, the relative
numbers of the Senate and House
Of Representatives, and the powers
of the Executive and Privy Coun-
Gil. On all these heads, as we'll as
many others, there is certain to be
much controversy, and probably
some bitterness of feeling. The
result must inevitably be a COM
promise between the warning inter
ests. What is life itself but a
compromise?
There are several particulars in |
which the instrument as it stands |
Deeds modification. AS already |
indicated, it contains what we be-
lieve to be an unnecessary abridge-
ment of the freedom of speech and
of the press. The ordinary consti- !
tutional guarantee should remain
unimpaired. The property quallf-
cation seems to the ADVERTISER
too high, and we believe that it
would be wiser and in the large
sense safer to leave it exactly as it
was in the Constitution of 1887.
The difficulty with that Constitu-
ton was that it left a wide door
open to fraud. The thing of main
is to close this door and
make provisions SO searching and
stringent that it will take some
thing more than mere ordinary
perjury to place mans
name on the voting list. If
genuine proof of income is re-
quired, the list of noble voters will
be thoroughly purged before it be-
comes the list of voters for Sena-
tors. The constitution as drawn
requires actual proof of income,
and its provisions will probably be
found sufficient.
We believe, also, that the prop
srty qualification for Senators has
been placed too high. 1t will ex-
;lude from that body many persons
who are well qualified to serve the
people. 1t should be RENE mbered
hat the property qualification is
'eally intended as az intelligence
