Improvement In city Government.

From The Cleveland Pain Dealer.
The movement for better city govern
ment Is becoming stronger and stronger
each year. The reports which are being
received from all sections of the country
are very encouraging. The conscience of
the citizen Is becoming active and ne Is
seeking means whereby he can improve
the condition Of the community in which
he lives. The most healthfui sign Of all
is the great disregard Of national party
ties In the consideration of municipal
questions. Voters do not vote like so
many sheen on municipal issues nowa-
days. merely following their party nomi-
nees. The straight ticket In local affairs
IL rarely voted.

necessarily appear to them the
merest splitting OF hairs for the

Senator Hoar has said that the
Hawaiians are children in intellect

need be given to their sentiments,
but the logic Of the situation is un-
changed for all that. Having stolen
the islands as whole, why should
we object to the soldiers stealing

The determined policy of Judge
Wilcox to put stop to the ever in
creasing assault cases, which daily
are brought before him, is being gen.
orally commended. The judge gave
fair warning that after the begin
ming OF the month people who take
the law in their own hands and in
dulge in "biffing" others will not be
let off with fine, but will be sent to
Jail. This prospect is not inviting
for "sluggers" and men who cannot
control their tempers, but the policy
of the judge will eventually bear
good fruit and assault cases will
become as rare as screen doors in a
saloon.

The public are anxious TO learn
what the position of Mr.. H. E.
Cooper is at present in the Govern

salary as such, although, on the 18th

representatives of foreign powers in
Hawaii that the Foreign Office had
ceased to exist, and that he was
"pau." Under these circumst ances
we would like to know what bust
ness he has to be present at the

there express his ideas and cast his
vote on such vital issues as whether
the windows in a saloon shall be

always understood that our Consti-
tuition provided that the Executive
and judicial branches OF the Gov
eminent were to be kept distinctly
apart from each other. A Cabinet
Minister, drawing the salary as such,
acting as a Justice OF the Supreme
