Police Court Notes.

Business in police quarters is
very quiet, the only arrest in the
past few days being of the most
trivial nature. The "swipes"
cases are the only ones occupying
the police court and they are now
under investigation. Several of
the cases were concluded ycster-
day afternoon and after argument
by Mr.. De Bolt for the defen
dants, Judge Wilcox announced
that he would render his decision
tomorrow.
Willie Foster will not attend
school and was locked up this
morning.
All Lee was arrested yesterday
for brutally knitting a horse out
near the Pail. He tried to bribe
the officer with a couple of dollars
and will have to answer for that.
Geo. d. Gear will appear for the
defense.

REV. MR.. PALMER Is NAMED
Committee Decides on Successor t
Rev. D. P. Birnie.
Nominee Well Known Here Salary May Be
Increased 10 $500 Additional
Church Expenses.

Rev. Mr.. Palmer of Oakland
will likely succeed Rev. d. p
BRINE as pastor of Central Union
church.
So much will be recommended
by the committee next Wednesday
evening, and it is understood that
the membership of the church is
in favor of the appointment.
Mr.. Palmer was here two years
ago and for short time filled the
pulpit of Central Union church.
At that time he made himself
very popular.
II ali of the plans of the com
mittee carry Mr.. Palmer will be
paid a salary of $4,000 a year.
This is an advance of 5000 over the
ministerial stipend of past years.
1t is conceded, however, that the
work is now worth the Kew figure,
having increased greatly in the
past few years.
In the matter of expenses the
members of Central Union church
will have to go deeper into their
pockets this year than ever before.
Besides the additional sum men
toned for the pastor they will
have to supply the pulpit of Pala
ma Chapel in future. This will
mean an extra salary of $1,000 a
year. The Hawaiian Board paid
this last year, hut this year it will
support Rev. Mr.. Lewis at Wal
luku, throwing the Chapel COM
pletely upon the shoulders of Cen.
trail Union church.

Contemporaries had better not
be too positive about American
naturalization of Japanese. Old
statutes of the United States may
be rendered obsolete by the new
relations between the two coun-
tries, which are still in a forms-
tive state with the prospect of be-
ing completed to Japan's perfect
satisfaction. Leaving Hawaii
with its good prospect of en-
tering the Union out OF
the question, the United States
has no reason to fear the admit
ting of japanese to all the privi-
leges of citizens or subjects of the
most favored nation. The immi-
grafton laws are likely before
long, perhaps at the present ses
sion of Congress, to be made res
trictive as to all nationalities
There is no likelihood of a great
tide Of Japanese immigra
ton setting in to the
United States, but, if such a
thing should eventuate or threat
er, the nation could stop immi-
grafton from all countries except
ing those with which it might
choose to make special mmigra-
ton treaties. Without food oil

naturalization a menace to the re-

r" presentations made promptly
by the State Department in wash
ington, upon receiving notice OF
the Pruss ian decree against dried
as well as fresh fruit of the Uni
ted State4, were quickly followed
by modification of the decree
Not only is dried fruit exempted
by the modification, but fresh fruit
will be admitted to entry If an ex-
animation shows it's condition to
be satisfactory. In spite of the
resolution to this effect passed by
the Bundesrath, however, Embas-
sador White WAS constrained to
enter another formal prot st,
as American fresh fruit
was being sill excluded
everywhere. The American Con-
sui at Dusseldorf had telpgraphed
that only dried fruits had been re
leased, and that there were about
eleven thous md barrels of apples
in the bonded warehouse there.
From Washington it is s'at-d as
"certain that if the decree as orr
ginally promulgated had been up
piled to shipments of fruit in tran.
sit, as its terms indicated, the
shippers would have bad right
to claim indemnity from the Prus,
sian Government for the damages
sustained by them, and it would be
regarded by the United States
Government as matter OF
duty to sustain this demand for
indemnify" Further advices
were being awaited at last &C
counts. Previous news indicated
that the Liberals of Germany
were opposed to making CONNER
cial war on the United States in
retaliation for the latter country's
tariff legislation. In the Prussian
Diet on February 4, the day that
the fruit decree modification was
announced, the Minister of Agri-
culture trotted out the American
horse for adverse mention, saying
the animal developed influenza
after importing. eff the impor-
tations increase" he declared,
1--WE shall certainly be forced to
adopt a suitable quarantine in
order to protect ourselves" This
commercial friction between the
United States and Germany has
been of long standing. Recipro-
city may come to be the aiterna-
tive of serious trouble.

much to make it probable that
naturalization privileges will be
accorded 10 japanese in the Unit
ed States. That country was the
pioneer among Western Powers
10 undertaking the revision of
treaties with japan, whereby japan
is admitted to an equality with
them in the family of civilized
nations. BY the revised treaties
consular courts in Japan are abo-
lished, and the citizens and sub
ices of countries previously hold.
ing such extraterritorial jurisdic
ton must, from the going into
full effect of the treaties now close
at hand, submit their troubles
and disputes arising in Japan to
the native courts. As to mutual
immigration privileges, also, the
most favored nation rule is
conceded in these treaties. Great
Britain has in this last particular
given her selfgoverning colonies
the option of staying out of the
compact, this because it would
have been an act of Imperial
tyranny, subversive of her libe.
rallied colonial policy, to compel
Canada and the Australasian col
onies to admit the hordes of Jap
anese that might at any
time swarm within their
borders. The greatest rea
son, perhaps, for expecting the
most liberal concessions from the
United States to japan under the
new treaty is the commercial one.
10 the intense rivalry which is
constantly increasing among the
western nations for the enormous.
ly expanding trade of the Orient
and the Pacific ocean generally, the
United States has as keen an eye to
the main chance as any of the Eu
ropean Powers now in danger of
precipitatipg war in the Far East
for the same object. According
to recent official reports the trade
of the United States in the Orient
is advancing so that it bids fair
largely to drive out competition.
1t is not hard to believe that the
United States will be very careful
to do nothing to destroy her in
fluence in Japan, now and
for some years past
standing supreme there. 1t
is significant that it is from the
State Department in Washington
this question of naturalization is
now mooted. The inference is
that it is an embarrassing ques.
ton, one involving the influence
of the United States in the Far
East. Hawaii, with the prospect
of annexation and an enor
nous proportion of japanese
amongst it's population, has
more serious interest in
the question than any State of
the Union. Yet there is probably
little reason to fear that the wise
craftsmanship, to which the max
ing of our system of local govern
ment is to be confided at annexa-
ton, will deliver Hawaii over
to Japanese control of its
domestic affairs, pending the time
when, as an American common.

Hooke, who we're on a prospect
ing tour about Mount Malcolm
after wandering in the bush for a
week, without water or food,
opened each others veins and
