TELLS New Workers. Of Situation
in Hawaii.
ATTITUDE OF THE OPPOSITION
Relief of Citizens From Military
Form of Government.
New York Herald, Sept. 10

Col. J. II. Soper, of Honolulu, who
was commander-in-chief of the revolu-
tionary forces when the Hawaiian
monarchy was overturned in 1898, and
who since then has been adjutant gen.
eral and chief of the presidents staff
in the Hawaiian republic, arrived in
New York yesterday from San Fran
cisco. He is staying at the Windsor
Hotel.
Col. Soper left Honolulu on August
16, four days after the raising of the
American flag over the island. He de
scribes the scene at the flag raising as
one of great enthusiasm, and declares
that the white population generally is
delighted because of the annexation OF
the Islands to the United States.
"Of course he said, there are some
malcontents. A few of the white res
idents, among whom / understa II is
Capt. John Ross, take the position
that while they have no objec ion 70
annexation per Sc, they object 10 the
way it was accomplished.
elimination of schemes which were
begun in the organization of the com
niittee of safety and in the revolution
The great majority, however, az
pleased, and when you reflect that out
of total population of about 5000
able-bodied white males im Honolulu
two-thirds were in the military service
you can readily see that every one
breathes a sigh of relief now that the
necessity for this excessive military
service has passed.
Among the natives the sentiment is
generally against annexation. They
are chiefly monarchists, and now that
annexation has been accomplished
they fear that they will be driven into
the mountains or placed on reServa-
tionS like the American Indian. This
fear is entirely groundless, for the Ha-
waiian native is immeaSurably super
ior to the Indian, both in intelligence
and education. Natives move in the
best society in Honolulu and are fully
the equals of the whites. In my opin-
ion they will be in a similar position
to that of the Spaniards in California
and New Mexico when they became
part of the United States"
In reference to the form of govern
ment desired by the white residents OF
Hawaii, Col. Soper said:
I'VE would prefer a government sim
liar to that Of the District of Columbia
under which it would not be necessary
for business men to give any attention
to politics. Next to that we wanted
the territorial form. which, / under
stand, is to be established. Hawaii is
not prepared for statehood Her pop
ulation is too small, and even if ii
were large enough the experiment
would be dangerous. 1t would mean
native control. as the natives, of course
Outnumber the white many times"

THEY ARE NOT BARBARIANS.
Ed. Il. Adams Replies to Rank State,
ments Made in the East.

Managing Editor James w. King of
the Philadelphia Press has written to
I'd. K. Adams the following letter:
"Nery great interest is manifest in
the United States in the question of
the political future of Hawaii. But
the statement is persistently made in
some quarters. that among represen-
tative Hawaiians, there is little or no
desire to see Hawaii annexed to the
United States, and that. in the main,
the natives are so barbarous that the
country is not fitted to become a part
of the territory of the United States.
Would YOU do us the honor TO favor
us with your view of the subject, as
we much desire to present authorita-
lively the public opinion and the gen
eral characteristics of the country and
people. We would feel obliged by a
prompt reply"
Mr.. Adams has very promptly re-
piled to the Philadelphia editor that
the representative Hawaiians do want
annexation for the reason that they
know it is to the best interests of
their country and their people. The
statement that the natives are barba-
rious is in keeping with the other ranl,
assertions made by anti-anneXationists
in the States who know absolutely
nothing of Hawaii and its conditions.

SUSPENSION OF Sentence
RIGHT DENIED TO DISTRICT
COURTS.
Supreme Court Decision Puts an End
to a Practice That Has Been Long
in Vogue Here.

The Supreme Court decided this
morning that when the District Court
suspends sentence on a convicted cul-
prit, it loses all further jurisdiction in
the case, and may not afterward move
on the sentence. This will do away
entirely with a very convenient prac-
tice that has been in vogue in the Po-
lice Court for years. Often man has
been charged with an offence before
the Court, and he is often persuaded
to plead guilty upon the promise that
Sentence will be suspended" He does
so and is released, but if he chances
to come again before the court. the
prosecuting attorney merely moves
upon the former sentence, and the
court usually gives the culprit the
most severe sentence.
The Supreme Court now puts an end
to this practice. The decision was
made in the case of the Republic VS..
Peter Pedro. on the defendants APP
peal. The defendant was arrested in
last February for wife beating, and
subsequently,. in November last. on n
similar charge. On the first occasion
the court suspended sentence" but
after the November arrest, moved on
the previous suspension. and sent Pc
dro to the reef to break rock. Attor-
ney De Bolt appealed the case. with
the result that he has secured his eli
ent's release and gained signal vic
tory.
The decision is a lengthy one. penn
ed by Chief Justice Judd. and con-
Cured in by Justices Frear and Whit
ing. The District Court is denied the
right to suspend sentence, on the
ground that it is temporary court"
The right to suspend is not, however,
denied to the Circuit Court. which is
permanent institution and may
suspend sentence from one term to
another
