THUMB MARKS AND TOURISTS.

Ia considering certain improvements
in the administration of the Registra-
ton Act, the tourists coming to this
Paradise of the Pacific should not be
entirely lost to view AS the law now
reads, every person arriving in the
country is obliged to register, hand his
numb mark to the authorities immedi-
ately upon landing. Here again senti-
ment and the thumb mark come into
collision. In this case it is not unlikely
that the collision may cost the coun-
Try a good sum in cold cash. AS hosts
Of large number of sight-seers, it is
good business if nothing more to make
the life of our visitors as pleasant as
possible, and as free from irksome rules
and regulations.
Under the present reading of the law,
The tourist is brought before the regis
,rar whether it is his intention to stay
in the country six days or six months.
To the Russian the obligation to COM
ply with the thumb mark regulation
will bring thoughts of home, and we do
not doubt that as the Russian presses
his finger on the ink pad he will glee
fully whistle Home Again from For
eign Shore" or some kindred rounde-
lay. Unfortunately, however, the ma
jority of the public guests who bring
money into Hawaii nei are not of the
Russian disposition, and will not look
upon our new law with the same pleas !
ant reflection. Hawaii has not reached |
the poit where a strict police surveil-
ance is required over every new conner |
that lands on the wharf, and it is not |
for the best interests of the country,
financially or politically, to force this
Impression upon the people who remain |
lere only short time and go on their
way about the globe, spreading, broad
asst their ideas upon matters and things
Hawaiian.
If it is impossible to exempt the tour

month or six weeks from registration,

lie to register who have no intention |

ut of the place as soon as possible if /

factions the drivers goaded their oxen
to the task, the house was taken
over the hill, and the vinegar-faced
orator retired to the corner grocery.
The general sentiment of the country
has been in favor of broad and pro-
gressive financial policy, but the Sen
ate has announced that ''ye can't do it,
and unfortunately has enough votes TO
urevent its being done. The financial
progress of the Senate is piece-meal
makeshift that would suit the New
England fiour-barrel orator.

ELIMINATE THE THUMB MARK.

While the registration law serves &
very good purpose and is a recognized
necessity in its general provisions, there
are certain features that demand the
serious attention of the Minister of the
Interior. We refer particularly to the
thumb mark, which is required as a
means of Identification. Certainly there
can be no more complete method of
! Identification than this thumb mark
that is replacing photography in many
of the rogues' galleries in the United
States, but it becomes a pertinent ques-
ton whether the Republic of Hawaii is
following out its usual broad principles
of liberality in requiring this feature
of criminal Identification in registering
it's law-abiding citizens.
The objection raised to this feature
of the law may be only matter of
sentiment, but it is a sentiment so deep
seated in the minds of a liberty-loving
people that the aversion to coming to
decided one Only in Russia, and pos
sibly China, is this system of identifi-
cation brought into play upon the citi-
zen who has no desire to infringe upon
the laws of the land. Now, do the peo-
pie of this country want to put them
selves on record as enforcing certain
features of this law, for which prece-
dents can only be found in such coun
tries as Russia? We do not think so,
and we believe the majority of the peo-
pie coincide with our ideas on the sub
ject. No one objects to registering or
doing anything else that will assist the |
Government in keeping the floating |
population of the country within proper |
bounds, but there are few who do not |
chafe when brought under the iron
hand that is usually brought down upon
the criminal.
If there were no other way of making
the law effective, there would be very
few to raise their voices against the
thumb mark, but there are better meth
DDS of securing the Identification of each
person whose name appears on the reg
ster. With the average citizen, the de-
scription of features, with a note of any
distinguishing marks or scars, together
with the autograph, is quite sufficient
% secure proper identification. If a per-
son cannot or does not care to sign his
lame, let him resort to the thumb mark, ,
out it is entirely proper that more ,
LIBERAL Interpretation of the law should
,e given than obtains at present. The
act that the Minister of the Interior
S given authority under the law to al
er or amend the regulations, which
amendments "shall have the force of /
aw," is good evidence that the trainers
f the Act did not intend to make hard t
nd fast rules that would work hard /
hip on the majority of the people. O
The registration law is an expert t
nent at best, and it is not for the best C
interests of the law or the country to v
obnoxious features at the out il
ct which will result in the measure be-
ng voted out of existence before the /;
eneral principle involved has been n
iven fair trial. Already plans are
eng laid to fight the law in the courts, r

The reasons given for the failure of
the House Of Representative to take
up the current receipts appropriation
bill are as numerous as the individuals
who have opinions to offer. But what
ever the true inwardness Of the thing
may be. it is about time the House be-
gan to grid up its loins and show signs
Of greater activity in connection with
this important measure. The Legisla-
ture has about twenty days in which
10 finish up the work of the session, and
there YET remains no small amount OF
work to be done. This is no time for
dilatory measures, and unless the Rep
resentatives intend to go home without
passing the appropriation bill, it is
about time they gave the measure their
undivided attention. If the present tao
tics are followed out, the last few days
of the session will find our worthy
up to their ears in important
work that will either be cleared away
with a rush or left unfinished.

Consequently we would suggest that
the Minister of the Interior exercise his
prerogative and eliminate the thumb
mark SO far as possible.

Their only mission here seemed ID lie
TO have q good time, and the husband
was the gayer of the two. lie made
the acquaintance Of Anthony Sch"ane,
the saloon-keeDer who fed from this

spent several evenings together, and dur
ing that time the latter learned all he

charged the Frenchman with having

she would pawn and raise that amount.
The bail was not reduced. and De Wan
