ENDORSING WARRANTS OF AR.
REST

In the discussion of the practice of
prosecuting officers to approve or dis
prove of warrants of arrest before their
issue, the Representatives who are
opposed to it, denounce it as contrary
to law, and dangerous.
But we notice that little or nothing
is said about the decision of the Su-
preme Court in the case of The King
VS.. j. r. Robertson 6 Haw. 71S), when
the Supreme Court distinctly affirms
the power of the prosecuting officers to
kick a case out of Court, as soon as a
person is arrested and brought before
a Magistrate. When this course is
taken, the poor devil who is arrested
is taken from his work, and pays a
good fee to an attorney before the pro-
scouting officer acts. After he is dis
charged, he ought to feel that the use
less and unjust arrest is only proof
of the fact that he is guarded by the
Palladium of Liberty, and lawyer
holds it up-besides holding him up"
No doubt some mighty mean men

are prosecuting officers, and abuse their
powers. And Magistrates should issue
warrants on the complaint of reputable
persons, without the endorsement of
the prosecuting officers. But the ex-
perience of all Anglo-Saxon countries,
indeed of all civilized countries, is that
prosecuting officers should have this
large and even arbitrary power of pre-
venting prosecutions and arrests.
This principle, as we'll as the Ashford

the discussion as if they were decayed
fish, not to be approached with any
satisfaction

The Circus.

Word comes that the circus is doing

that Hayes has greatly improved in his

in Honolulu again. Elsie st. Leon
has also mastered a number of new
feats in riding and Mr.. st. Leon has
drilled the little ponies into a lot of
new tricks. The circus will next go
to Hawaii and after playing Hilo will
return to Honolulu. Sam Marks, who
remained here to represent Mr.. Wilt
son, is now feeling his way on the
proposition to have an international
tug of war contest in connection with
the wild west show, hippodrome and

THE OATH AMENDMENT.

Section 101 of the Constitution pro-
vides that person, in order to be ELI
gible to hold office, or to vote, must
take an oath, first, to support the Re
public, and second, not to encourage
or assist in the restoration6of the Mon
archy
The amendment now urged by Rep
resentative Loebenstein is to strike out
the second provision.
The provision is rather redundant.
If a person swears to support the Re-
public he is under the same moral OBJ
legation not to assist in restoring the
Monarchy. 1t is like taking an oath:
81 will always live in Honolulu, and
1 will not live in Hilo." 1t is like the
case of a marriage ceremony, when
the bride at the altar is asked by the
clergyman to say: Il, Sally take you
John to be my lawful husband, and
will not make any effort to make Peter
my husband
The natives have a sentiment which
in a general way, favors the Monarchy.
They believe that the taking of the
present oath is slur on that senti-
ment. The sentiment may be a wrong
one, but there is not a grown person
in this community that is not inf1u-
enced more or less by sentiments.
The native will forego that senti-
ment, and take the present oath, when
ever the time comes for one ''haole"
to show the natives how they can
effectually ego" for the other ''haoles"
and pull something out of the public
crib.
Oaths amount to nothing, and are
treated as mere superstitions when
men get excited. It is not an oath, but

the natives character that determines
what he will or will not do. Ask the
judges what they think of the oath OF
an average respectable white man in
the witness chair, when he is testifying
in case of his own, or the oath of a
jury man, when a rich corporation is
defendant
The Government is not in favor of
the amendment. At the same time if
the people as represented by the Legis-
lature are in favor of it, there certainly
will be no dreadful consequences if it
should be finally adopted.

LILIUOKALANI'S BOOK.

We have reviewed in another place,
the book, titled "Hawaii's Story by
Hawaii Queen" 1t is fortunate that
the book has been written. 1t bristles
with falsehoods. But the Queen gives
herself away in it with ease, inno-y
cence and composure. She substanl
tally proves the case against herself
if it's pages are read carefully.
Her statement that the people were
goaded by their wrongs" to attempt
restoration of the Monarchy is fatty
contradicted by the clear, voluntary
and unreserved statement that during
the last five years, they have not con-
tributed lone cent to redress their
wrongs. While their dear Queen was
pouring out her own treasure to effect
her own restoration, and secure the
rights of the dear people, they looked
on, condemned the revolution, and re-
fused during these long five years to
chip in to the extent of giving her the
lodging. They were, if she tells the
truth, utterly Indifferent to the restor-
alton. There was not a cents worth of
''goad" in the entire native population.
She was left to paddle her own canoe,
and not one lent her a hand. When
we reflect on the great wealth of many
of the .Royalists, we are shocked at
the revelation now made by the Queen,
that She alone "pungled up" to get rid
of the missionary thieves and pi-
rates." Even the rich Royalists who
went to Washington, burdened with
the sorrows of the overthrow, made
her foot every bill Her private diary
showsihow she poured out the cash.
All this presents a new phase on the
native attitude towards the overthrow.
One may naturally inquire how much
"sand" was there, or is there now, in
a people who, on racial grounds, pre-
ferred the Monarchy, but did not take
zone cents" worth of stock in The
movement to restore it. They were will
ing to aid in the restoration if that CALL
ed only for ga walk over" or if the ha-
oles would take the lead, as they did, in
the insurrection of '95. They look upon
the whites with some suspicion, and
yet from 1920 until the reign of Kala-
kaua, never once protested before their
Kings, at the appointment of white
men to high Offices. When the over
throw came, their racial instincts were
stirred up by their own demagogues,
and the white bummers, who are the
scourlngs of all civilized countries.
But, according to the Queen. they did
not. would not, and have not made
any sacrifice in order to right their
wrongs.
If Kalakaua had nominated the
Princess Kaiulani, as his direct sue
cessor, the Monarchy would be in exis-
tence today. The love for it was deep
" rooted in the hearts of many intelli-
gent and strong men, who winked at
its weakness. The evolution of events
would in time have changed the poll
teal system, but a moderately wise
Monarchial Government would not
have been easily disturbed. The Prin-
cess has the personal satisfaction of
knowing that through no act of hers,
was the Monarchy terminated.

Some of the Conditions Necessary

The Importance of maintaining good
health is easily understood, and it is really
simple matter If we take a correct view
OF the conditions required. In perfect
health the stomach promptly digests food,
and thus prepares nourishment. The
blood Is employed to carry this nourish-
ment to the organs, nerves, muscles and
tissues which need it. The first great
essential for good health, therefore. is
pure, rich blood. Now it is certainly

On board the Sun dispatch boat Pre-
nnier. of Cardenas, Cuba, June 4, via Key
West, June 5.-A visit to the several sta
tions Of the blockade of the north coast
from Mariel on the west TO Cardenas on
the east. discIoses increased watchfulness
on the part of our warships and intense
activity on the part Of the enemy. APP
preaching Mariel at daybreak this morn
ing and when fully twenty miles of
shore, the Premier was sighted by the
Maple, which swiftly bore down on tho
sun boat from her post, six miles in
shore.
The Premier had scarcely arrived with
in speaking distance Of the Maple when
the two gunboats, which had been doing
blockade duty on the Havana station,
came upon the horizon, and speedily
demonstrated that the Premier nor anv
other craft could make the run for Morro
without receiving solid shot-notice to
quit.
Copies Of the latest papers were well
coined as usual and officers and men eX-
pressed much satisfaction over the news
Of Schley's exploit at Santiago When
the haze lifted and o,d Moro and the bat
terios Of Havana became plainly visible
as the Premier ran close TO shore, it was
seen that Blanco is not losing a moment
in his work Of defense. The appearance
Of the Premier on the blockading line
was promptly signaled by heliograph
from the station.
From the hiIltops along the coast an
swering signals came. As the Premier
steamed eastward ii could be seen that
the Spaniards have greatly strengthened
their earthworks around Havana. On the
side hills new batteries not there two
weeks ago are in evidence, and the same
condition is noticeable TO the west Of the
blockaded city. The blockading fleet had
TO report no change in the situation.
OF Matanzas and squatting directly at
the entrance Of the outer harbor lay a
monitor Inside P.edras Key, off Car
denas a gunboat stands guard. When
hailed one Of her crew said: y wish We

been almost entirely restored. New land
batteries have been put in position and
there are now. il Is believed, over 10 5G00
Spanish troops guarding the city against
attacks from our forces and the insur-
gents.
The captain Of the gunboat was afford
ing Cardenas today a proof of our re-
sources. Lying right a; the entrance To
the outer harbor his ship was coaling
from the collier Lebanon, while the gun
boats inside dare not venture out within
range Of his guns. on the way to Car
denas today the Premier was held up by
the Eagle, which sent a shot across her
bows On coming closer the Eagle ex-
changed more desirable salutations and
passed on with dispatches for the ships

MAKING HASTE SLOWLY.
The Manila Expedition VIII Not
Sail for Several Days.


San Francisco, June 5.-The monitor
Monterey did not sail today. but is ex-
pected to leave tomorrow at noon. Her
consort, the Brutus, came down from
Mare Island this evening and the ships
would have gone today had 1t not been
that some Of their officers had leaves. Ma
rines were hurried aboard the monitor
MonaGnock and she sailed this afternoon
for Honolulu. She went direct from Mare
Island through the Golden Gate, so there
was no demonstration
If the second Manila expedition gets
away by next Sunday remarkable work
will have TO be done, according TO those
in a position TO know. The delay is not in
putting aboard the ships supplies or in the
Quitting Of men TO go, but in the making
up OF the transports for the journey. The
loading of the Zealandia has begun. 1t
will take two days TO complete this task.
When the China and the Colon will re-
ceive their allotments is a question. There
has been no great rush work done on
them. 1t would seem that the Govern
ment is in no hurry 10 get them on their
way to Manila.
A nigh officer said last night:
The Government is not as much eXer-
cised over the question OF haste as ii is
OF the matter of assuring the health and
comfort Of the troops. This is the prime
consideration. The vessels might have
gone before now, but for the minute pre-
cautions being taken in their preparation.
At this season epidenics of various dis
eases must be warded off. Ventilation of
sleeping quarters as much space per man
as possible, sanitary arrangements of
many kinds and hospital room are the
items that cause seeming procrastina-
ton
