The March Races.

The committee having charge Of
the program for the races at Kapio-
lani Park on the 18th of March de-
serves credit for the energy display
ed by the members in their endeavor
to secure frst-class event.
We publish the program in this
issue and we feel justified in stating
that the entries of every race will be
filled and that the meeting will be
OF unusual interest.
The rough weather has prevented
Colonel Cornwell from bringing his
string of horses to town. The Col
onel is enthusiastic, however, over
the condition Of his horses, and we
won't be bit surprise il his fine
racers should appear on the track
on the 17th in spite of the positive
denial of this gallant patron OF the
noble sport.
Decker's horses, four in number
will be here on Sunday, if the
weather will give small chance to
the racing fraternity.
In case Of dry weather for few
days the track will be in an excellent
condition and the committee feels
confident that the rain must stoF
and pay some consideration to the
great holiday of the sons of the
Emerald Isle.
The bicycle races will be very in
teresting indeed, and the friends oI
the run and tumbling of" art will
be there in full force. The events
where running horses appear, will bt
hailed by the sports, who will bel
against each other and who all viii
have a "sure thing"-"Come of
your perch"
The trotting aud pacing races will
take the cake, however, and wher
Ralph, Madchen, We's Ka Hao ano
the others appear on the track there
will be music in the air-furnisheC
OF course by the band.

Dole's Character.

In obedience to the wish OF Presi-
dent Dole there was no display con-
nected with his arrival at Washing
ton yesterday. He wanted to enter
the city without any show. He is a
wise man. He has nothing to be
especially proud of. He cheated the
Queen OF Hawaii out OF her throne,
seized the reins of government con-
trary to the wishes of the islands,
and he ought to be ashamed to come
now and ask this government to
ratify the steal,-Columbus, Ca, En-
guirer Sun.

WEDNESDAY, FEB. %, 1898,
THE MARsHAL's REPORT.

We referred in a former issue to
the official report of the Attorney
General to the Legislature for the
past biennial period. Among the
sub-reports special mention should
be made Of the report to the Attor-
ney-General by the Marshal. 1t con-
tains some common sense and also
several matters which will cause sar-
castle smiles on the lips OF the hon
orable gentlemen who represent the
people and refuse to be bulldozed
by the Ministers.

The Pirate of Hawaii at Washington

The Pirate of Hawaii at Washington.
The Pirate of Hawaii, president"
Dole, is receiving scant courtesy at
Washington as "the nations guest"
he was advertised to be. His arrival
at the capital was under the wet
blanket Of snow storm that de-
layed his train several hours. And
then President Mckinley turned his
back upon him by going off to big
dinner in New York at the Waldorf
Astoria. Meanwhile the annexation
treaty drags in the Senate. And
yesterday Senator Pettigrew, Repub.
lican of South Dakota, gave it a
vicious left-handed blow by intro.
ducing a resolution that "it is con-
trary to the interest, policy, and ira
dition of the people of the United
States to acquire any territory 30
situated as to require navy to pro-
tect it," which went over under the
rules. 1t looks as if the Pirate Of
Hawaii would return to his Oil
garchy, as President Cleveland aptly
termed it, both a sadder and wiser
man.-Rochester, ", Y, Union-AdUer-
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-02-23

In speaking of the efficiency Of
the force under his demand the
Marshal says that: "No one, be he
police officer or Sheriff, whose char
acter was questionable or whose
work unsatisfactory has been retain
ed" The noble sentiments of the
Marshal will find a ready echo
from the taxpayers, and the purging
OF the moral characters OF those who
wear the police badge will be hailed
with great joy-and with some
show of surprise.

Holding the Fort.

The willingness of the avowed OPP
ponents of Hawaiian annexation to
come to a vote on the question is
good evidence that they are conf
dent of their ability to defeat ratifi
cation. There is equally good evi,
dence that they will hold their
present strength and are very likely
to increase it.-Erie, Pa, Herald.

and unknown to most of us,
we are surrounded by deadly
health poisoning germs of
disease, but which, thanks to
sanitary science, are being
more formidably encountered
and conquered day by day by
the irresistible forces of puri-
ty. Soon we are to adopt
Herring's system of sewerage

Horrible Accident.

As we 60 to press we learn that
one OF the drivers of the street
sprinklers fell off his seat, and fall
ing under the wheels OF the heavy
cart was awfully mangled. The
fearful accident happened in front
of the Palace gates.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-02-23

The Marshal refers to the excel
lent work done by the police on
Kauai under Sheriff Carter. 1t is
rumored however that the resigna-
tion of that officer would be accept
ed by the Marshal, as soon as tend
cred, and that such an event may
take place before the end of this
month.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-02-23

From the Marshal down to the
youngest policeman the question OF
moral character has now been estab.
lished. None of the men under the
control OF this virtuous Government
are doing a little naughty" busi-
ness or a tumbling from the path
of righteousness. If they should
waver for moment the ever virtu-
GUS "boss" is there, to repeat to
them these awful words: ''No one,

The Marshal's report in regard to
the efficiency Of the police on the
other islands will be dealt with
when we review the reports Of the
different Sheriffs. We noOice that
the great chief of police pays special
attention to the "officer-like appear
ance" of the islands police in their
regulation uniforms.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-02-23

We fully concur in the Marshal's
suggestions in regard to the increase
in the salaries paid to the deputy
sheriffs Of Kauai, Maui and Hawaii.
The present compensation for
their services is altogether inadequ-
ate, and the Legislature ought to

The recommendations in regard
to appoint OF prosecuting Of
fcer in the District Court, a re-
formatory school for girls, a patrol
wagon, and other measures have our
full approval. They have been
originally suggested by The INDE
PENDENT, and we are pleased to say,
adopted and acted upon by the
very clever and efficient Marshal OF
the Republic, Mr.. A. M. Brown.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-02-23

Our space does not allow us to
refer to the Marshals special Of
ficers in this issue. We can only say,
that we are surprised that he has
had the hardihood to bring that
eyesore on the otherwise respectable
police force, to the notice of the
Legislature and the taxpayers. We
will deal with the Marshal's "spies"
later on and must also defer our
comments on the valuable report Of
the adjutant OF the Citizens Guard.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-02-23

The Marshal favors the con-
tinuance OF the service OF the
Mounted Police, We have always
believed that such a branch OF the
force was necessary for the protec-
tion OF the community. Mr.. w. o..
Smith thought differentlyst one time,
but then he was not the Attorney
General. He and the Marshal have
now changed their former senti.
ments. The bicycle force, we be-
lieve the Marshal, should receive all
possible support and encourage
ment. The services OF the bicycle
mounted officers are very useful
indeed.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-02-23

The pay Of the Honolulu police
ought to be increased, as suggested
in the Marshal's report, 1t is alb
surd to pay an intelligent officer $40
a month, and expect him to appear
at his ownIexpense, uniformed, clean
and "honest." II man can fulfill
the billet under those circumstances
aud does it to the satisfaction Of the

Deputy Marshal Hitchcock left for
Maui on the Kinau yesterday to be alb

the Sheriff of the Island and two of
his deputies are to be here on Sunday
to appear in a case on the next day.
This would leave the island without
anyone in authority. Therefore the
Deputy Marshal has been sent to the
island to look after any emergency
cases that might happen to present
themselves.
