NEWSPAPER CONTEMPT.

The Supreme Court of Wisconsin has
been making some good decisions of
late which have called forth consider
able commentator, notably there
was good one which affected cyclists
and now it is commended for a unan-
imous decision to the effect that it is
not contempt to criticize a judge up
on the bench. The facts of the case
were as follows, as stated by the Lit
erary Digest:
Judge Bailey, after serving six years
was a candidate for reelection. In
the course of the campaign, a lawyer
wrote an article severely assailing
Judge Bailey's personal and judicial
character. Judge Bailey caused the
arrest of both writer and publisher
on a charge of contempt of court.
They were tried before him and SEN
fenced to small fine and imprison
ment. Appeal was taken with the re-
suit of overturning Judge Bailey's
sentence. The Court held that "for
judge to punish a newspaper for con-
tempt which criticizes him and his
decisions is an invasion of personal
liberty of the right of free speech,
and of the freedom Of the press" and
added "we are well persuaded that
newspaper comments on cases finally
decided prior to publication cannot be
considered criminal contempt"
The Wisconsin case is not by any
means an isolated one, for recently a
Judge in Cleveland, Ohio, attempted
to hold for contempt "a newspaper
writer who had criticised his judicial
acts. A higher court set aside his
decision on similar grounds to the
Wisconsin Court.
The Chicago Times-Herald in com
menting upon this says:
THAT courts and judges must have
the power to enforce respect and to
punish acts or public criticisms th5t
tend to bring reproach upon them or
interfere with the just performance
yet there must be a limit to this pow
err. Freedom of speech and Of just
criticism must also he preserved. The
Judges are not little tin gods on
Wheels and the ermine is no panoply
for unwisdom and Jack of learning
To protect both-to restrain AFRO
gance and judicial tyranny on the one
side and unbounded license of com
ment on the oth.r-should thereto c
be the object of the law"
There is no doubt that the position
of a judge on the bench has its effect
upon some minds, and nat the ma
jesty with which we carefully sur
round the law, because the Jaw rep
resents the highest functions OF the
people, is at times assumed by the &c
cupant of the bench to belong to him
self personally. \ judge can tt
wrong headed, vicious and pedantic
without being venal, and for any o,
these things he is open to just news
paper criticism, as much as any othel
member of the community who occu
pies public position. To the true re
publican there is no more divinity
hedging round a judge or presiden'
than there is about sailor before the
mast. They are but men. liable to the
same errors and temptations, tn,
same foibles as other men, and as
such they should be criticized ant
criticized the more freely because o.
the high positions they hold.

Really some of the comments upon
the future of these Islands after an
neXation are most amusing. Accord
ing to these writer's one would believe
that the United States bred anarchy
and every form of evil. Hawaii's
law abiding communities are to dis
appear, and it is to become the home
of lawless adventures. Up to the
present one had the idea that the
United States was rather an example
to the rest of the world in the mat
ter of self government, and the United
States press gave one that idea also.
Those misguided Americans who still
cling to the Royalst cause must be
very much pleased to see the United
States thus described. But this plct-
ure of the wild and woolly west is ev-
identity drawn from dime novels and
two-bit theaters. A course of Emer-
son, Washington Irving, Howells, Ma
han, Longfellow and other shining
literary lights in many styles, will
clear away the cob-webs of prejudice,
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1897-10-30

and perhaps show that the people of
the United States are not the bully
ing, ignorant ruffians that the Royal
list press paints them. We have a
much better chance of being overrun
by lawless Adventures if we remain
without the protecting arm of the
Great Republic. We had strings of

AS this is the time of the
year when all the Rice Plant

blowing, or getting ready to

bounden duty to speak of our
Plantation Implements.
First and foremost is the
Avery Advance Double Fur

great satisfaction wherever in

Islands who have tried these
Flows speak highly of them on
account of the adaptability to
the soil Of Hawaii.

The Wool Outlook.

There appears to be a tendency
among wool raisers to hold on to their
wool this season, hoping that the
settlement of the tariff question by
congress will result in higher p ices
prevailing in the near future. For
this hope there seems little founda-
tion, for already the importations OF
foreign woods have been unusually
heavy this year, and both warehouses
and mills are pretty well filled, hence 1t
makes little difference what action
congress takes, as wool cannot go very
high within the next few months.
The wool raiser who is in position to
hold his clip for a year, and can do so
without too great expense for storage
and insurance, may profit by so doing.
But the wool owner who is paying In
terest on money cannot expect TO
profit by holding his wool year. for
even the raise that may come In that
time by the enactment of the tariff will
hardly be more than 10 per cent.
AS to the probable prices that will
prevail at any time this season, well
posted wool buyer gave it as his opin-
ion the other day that they would no.
range higher than average prices of a
year ago, for as he said, the majority
of wool buyers are not buying to store,
but with the view of selling their wool
to manufacturers before another clip
shall be placed upon the market, there
fore they will not pay more than they
can realize fl ON tne factories at pres
ent or within the near future.

WOMAN FLIES KITES.

New Kind.

Champion Lady at the Sport lnvents .
New Kind.
"Barrel kites" are the novel invention
of Miss Nellie Ross, of Fruit Vale, CAL,
says the New York World. Three
months ago she demonstrated their
practicability, and since then has
proved, as she claims, that they fly
higher than any other kites ever made
On the Pacific coast. A recent visitor
to what Miss Rose calls her "kitery"
saw simply a very clean and neatly
whitewashed back yard. Against some
deserted henroosts leaned some queer
cloth and bamboo objects that looked
like fattened balloons with the ends
knocked out. The largest were five feet
high by four feet broad, and they were
of all colors. The string used in flying
them is about two miles long.
The young kite-fyer, who holds that
every woman should have a hobby and
who thoroughly enjoys hers, makes all
her own kites. Then she flies nine or
ten at once, to the great edifcation of
the surrounding neighborhood and to
the delight of the small boys, who are
always willing to help haul them in.
Each kite is named, and Mckinley"
and "Grover" compete with those bear
ing less famous names to see which can
climb the highest. Barrel-kite flying
is said to be as pretty as it is success.

flyer wears her distinction very grace
fully.

STRANGE rCsI OFFICES.

Queer Arrangements Seen in Other Partl
of the World.
Until quite recently the postal system
in Persia was very loosely conducted
1t was under the superintendent of a
minister of posts, who, however, does
not work the system himself. Each
road is farmed to some merchant or
wealthy person, who pays certain SUM
to the minister for the privilege, and
makes as much money out of the busi-
ness as he can.
On the south coast of Patagonia is the
most remarkable postal service IN the
world. Close to the post is large sign
post with the inscription: post Office" :"
Attached by chains to the foot of the
sign post is a strong chest, which has
served as post Office, master, clerk, all
in one, for many years. The ships pass
ing through the Magellan straits send
a boat to the shore to fetch any letters
that may be addressed to their places of
call, and at the same time to leave any
letters they may wish to have taken in
other directions.
In a small group of islands off the
south coast of Iceland the islanders have
a bottle post, which depends mainly on
the wind. When the wind blows from
the south they put their letters into
well-corked bottle. To insure delivery,
plug of tobacco or a cigar is put in
side, and people on the mainland are
usually on tie lookout for and ready to
deliver the letters so dispatched, in re-
turn for the inclosed remuneration.

The crop outlook throughout the
county was beginning to look rather
serious until Monday, when the clouds
were opened and spilled their moisture
upon the parched earth in copious
showers. A week later much of the
grain would have been past saving,
as in many places it had begun to show
the effects of drouth, but coming just
as it did, there is very little grain any,
where but now will yield a fair crop,
and in many sections it will be the
