He is represented as yielding grace

gracefully at this stage Of the game must

No Nor.. Star Chamber Police Trials.

Commissioner Wight voiced public senli-
Ineat hen he gave Orders that hereafter
all proceedings OF the police trial board
should be open instead of secret as hereto
fore. Ths. people have the right to know
what is going on i'll official circles They
are particularly concerned in all that al
fects the character and the strength of the
police force. The star-ch1nber policy that
has dominated the administration of this
trial board in the past has been repuSnant
to the best sentiment and it we'll said
p. the Commissioner that the proceedings
OF the police court itself might with equal
fairht>s and wisdom be guarded
grave secret. New York is even now strug
CLING with an obstreperouS police justice
who has of late prevented the reporters of

H.w.a. .t the P.rtsne Of n. way,

clear notiod Of the exact situation in
Honolulu = furnished By the letter from
Kamehameha'' written from that port q
fortnight ago and pubiished today. This
letter supplements that printed Monday,
stating the later developments Of the Jap
anese troubles and giving an instructive
interview with the japanese minister there.
This talk Il full Of deep meaning, both to
Hawaii and to the United States. The
minister's reference to '.the strong arm
and the strong vessels'' Is no more nor less
than threat Of fcrce. 'Kamehanaeha"
believes that the tim. has come for de-
cisive ection.': His closing words arc par
ticulariy significant. He says:
Hawaii has now reached the parting of
the vays. when her destiny Is to be de-
cided. whether it shall be As.atic or Eu-
ropean-wnether she shall become a Jap
nese colony or continue to develop as an
American one. Our weak government has
gene to the limit of it's ability in meeting
the issue presented to 1t. It now remains
to await the action of the government of
the United States. If they intend to own
Hawaii as their outpost in the Pacific now
Is the time to act decisively and assume
possession" .

Ball Playing In the Street.

The police must give more attention to
disciplining the small boys who in defiance
of the law and the police regulations per-
sist in playing ball in the streets, to the
peril of pedestrians, riders and wheelmen.
The other day little girls leg was broken
as the direct result of this dangerous sport,
her wheel being overturned by a carelessly
thrown bail. The thoroughfares are none
too safe in these days of bicycling and
rapid transit street cars and every effort
should be made by the police to eliminate
as far possible this extra and useless
danger. Citizens who have complained of
the nuisance in the past have as rule
been told that they must take the initiative
by securing warrants against individual Of
tenders, and that then the police would do
their part. This is unjust to residents and
to those users of the streets who are an
noyed and injured by the ball-playing. Al
though the police force is small it Is yet
large enough to give some measure OF
peace to the citizens, who can not equitably
be expected to be constantly on the alert
after slippery youngsters. There is a dan
ger, too that those most disagreeable af-
fairs known as 'neighborhood rows may
result from zeal in such cause and the
fear of outbursts of parental vengeance
doubtless deters many sufferers from max
ing open complaints against the youthful
law-breakers. Under these circumstances
a quiet complaint to the nearest station
should suffice to procure for a street or
neighborhooI thus afflicted a certain
amount of protection. II would not re-
ouire many arrests and convictions to teach
a wholesome lesson to the careless bali
tossers and convince them that the street
is no place for the development of their
athletic tendencies.

Meanwhile the President viii have op-
portunity to avail himself OF an sources OF
Information about Cuba, In addition to the
source Of his special commissioner. He
has shown himself 90 far to be friend Of
Cuba. What he viii hear from Mr.. Calhoun
Is fairly wen known. Mr.. Calhoun will
confirm to him the existence in Cuba Of
the worst features Of the situation that
have already been described: a reign OF
terror under the Spanish flag; the land
laid waste. the people herded like cattle and
starving to death. and yet the spirit Of the
insurgents in arms still defiant and un-
broken. The end Is not in sight, unless
by means of intervention of some kind by
the United States. and that Is the point
with which it is reasonable to assume the
President now will charge himself.
The situation in its proper analysis is
simple. With the tariff bill out of the
way. the case of Cuba will stand in its
just relation to American interests and
sympathieS.

something which, II not as good as that.

remembered that It Is not In the sugar

ing to have its way IN this matter Of tariff
legislation Its knife IL at the throat Of

secure action removing the treaty from ell

and Of success It win be renewed, and It
viii be public misfortune II It fails. Not
that failure IN the Senate will mean failure
altogether, for the House VIII not give in
as to that. but that the Senate should not
lend ITSELF to scheme having for its object
the unfair treatment Of friendly power
and one that desires to draw nearer to this
country. at the instance Of rapacfous and
business organisation. The
treaty with Hawaii has worked, as It was
intended. 1t should, to the interests Of both
countries. and II annexation follows in the
near future It win have played good part
In that desirable consummation. But, In
any event. It b q convention to which this
government is honorably and profitably
bound, and which this government cannot
AFFORD to abrogate IN the interests Of either
dead beat lobbyists or sugar beet million
aires.
1t is to be hoped therefore that the SEN
ate. before asking for q conferences with the
House on the tariff bill, may put itself ON
record In favor Of sustaining 30 meritorious
feature Of the reciprocity policy. It has
5ustined itself many times over. and the
