The police and District Magistrate
OF Honolulu has resigned, his resig-
nation to take place on the 1st Of
May. Judge de la Vergne has been
termed Kindergarten" jurist by
The INDEPENDENT. Although still
hampered with inexperience in re.
gard to the people brought before
him aud the peculiar actions OF the
police officers and Government spies
he has improved wonderfully, and
he leaves the bench with the full
respect of the community. What is
wanted in his place is man who
has no fear of the authorities, who
does not care fig for a re-appoint-
ment, and who asks no favors from
anyone. A man combining such
qualities with the necessary kno vi
edge of law is hard to find. We
have numerous "new" lawyers here,
all good and clever men beyond a
doubt, but all OF them are "new" and
unfamiliar with the material with
which they have to deal.

1t will be great pity If Mr..
Luther Wilcox cannot be persuaded
to accept the judgeship. The per-
sonal efforts OF each Of the executive
officers of the Government should
be brought to bear on Mr.. Wilcox
and all allowances should be made,
in persuading him to accept an Of
fee for which he is eminently fitted
and where he will be in position
to do the greatest good to the peo-
pie with whom he has cast his lot
and for whom he always has shown
an honest, deep-felt aloha. Mr..
Wilcox has stated on former oc-
casion, when the position as judge
was offered to him, that he did not
want to be made slave by writing

ing about the clerical work. He is
perfectly right, The District Court
of Honolulu is of great importance
The liberty of men is decided there,
and a Judge listening carefully to the
evidence produced, should not be
forced to scribble down the words of
witnesses and thereby be apt to
forget the main thread and trend OF
the evidence. Surely the pay for a
shorthand writer can be spared
from some appropriation, even if the
Marshal has to dispense with his
private secretary or one or two OF
his interesting spies. 1t will be
good policy for Mr.. Dole and his
Cabinet to seat Luther Wilcox,
nolens volens, in the chair OF the Ho-
nolulu's Police Magistrate.

We do not know whether Mr.. An
tone Rosa will accept the office Of
Deputy Attorney. General. If he will,
he is certainly the most competent
man for the place. Mr.. Rosa has
enjoyed an excellent career as an
Attorney, and that is what makes
him the most suitable man for the
Office referred to. Rosa has been a
Clerk in the Supreme Court, Depu-
ty Attorney General, Attorney-Geue-
raj and recently Circuit Judge. In
his subordinate positions he worked
under jurists like G. G. Harris,
Preston and Neunann, and in every
official position held by him he h as

community, irrespective of political
