LOCAL SELF Government
There Will Probably Be Leg
ielature but With Linz
, tied Powers.
The. Plan Is to Be a Model
Adapted to Other New
Possessions.

SAN FRANCISCO, sept. ~. - Inc
steamer Coptio from Yokohama and
Hong Kong, via Honolulu. brings the
following advices to the Associated
Press from the latter city under date
of Sept. 8:
1t will be the ''Territory Of Hawaii.
That 10 the name which the annexa.
ton committee had decided to recon.
mend to congress. Thus will be pre-
served in the political nomen oiature Of
the United States the distinctive origin
of this part of the United States. The
history and tradition Of the islands and
the associations that no resident here
wants forgotten will 60 on in un.
broken union with the name.
The form Of the government will be
modelled on that Of existing territories.
There will be no more further depar-
lures from this than local conditions
and national political consideration
makes necessary. 1t is probable that
in working out the details
The Form Of the Government
will not approximate 50 closely to that
of state government as the ordinary
form of government does. But the
ultimate possibility of statehood will
not be barred. There will be no Dis.
trict Of Oolumbia or Alaska form of
government proposed. Local self gov.
eminent will be given through the OF.
tension Of the municipal idea. The
Islands will be divided into municipal
districts. having control. under restrio-
lions and limitations. OF purely local
affairs. Honolulu, for instance, will
be q municipal district, embracing the
whole of the island Of Oahua. Hawaii
may be divided into two districts, and
Holokai, Lanai and Niphau may be
attached to some other municipal dis
strict. The question of territorial legis.
lature has not been fully settled. There
will probably be one, but with limited
powers. lr,
All the Attr,butss Of Sovereignty,
however, will be exercised by the No.
tional government Of the United
States In local affairs they will have
the opportunity of exercising the high.
est attribute Of American citizenship.
local self.government. The form Of
government the committee will recon.
mend will be one calculated to do away
with the associations Of national inde-
pendence which have grown up in the
last 80 or 80 years and to create asso-
Citations and the feeling of union with
the United States of America. It is
pretty clear from what has been said
by members Of the committee from
time to time in framing form Of gov
eminent for these islands, they have
also been charged with the administra.
ton at Washington with forming a
model which can be adapted to Porto
Rico and other new possessions the
war has brought the United States.

The Department OF Elections Monday
announced the list of officers to hold
the registration ON August 9Th, 18th
and goth, September 18th, and October
18th, which will DO found on another
page of this isHue In making the
appointments the board has kent clear
of the men who participated in the
disgraceful proceedings attendant upon
the sessions of tho Board of Canvass
mt the Court House, and has secured
men who, it ia believed, will perform
their duties honestly and faithfully.
One Of tho most noticeable features
is the fact that tine board has ignored
the Union Republicans and returned
the list of names submitted by tho
executive committee of that fractional
organization. This action was taken
by unanimous vote, the members oil
the department holding That they could
not. legally rocongize the Union Repuh.
licans. The list was returned to Chair
nan Downey to-day, and with il q
letter quoting the Law on the suhjec
giving the legal Interpretation of "tht
two leading parties, land stating il
respectful terms why the recon
mendations could not be considered.
As the two Republican lists con
taiued tue same names, tho Addicki
Republicans may derive consolation
from the fact that their names have
been accepted, at any rate. But the
fact remains that their organization
has been renudiatsdr and by the
unanimous vote of body in which
tho Republican party has a lepre
sentative.
Tue moral effect of this decision
cannot be misunderstood. The mem
bers of the Department of Elections
arc to be congratulated upon thar
decision.
