TITO THE OWNERS OF Dogs.
Mayors Office, Alexandria. Va,

June 1, 1879.
All persons owning or intending to keep
any animal of the dog or canine species must
come forward on or before JUNE TENTH.
1899, and take out license for the same
from the Auditor. After the 10Th of June
all persons owning or harboring dogs without
the required license will be fined las the laws
on the subject require) So for every dog so
owned or harbored.
Complaint has been frequently made that
many persons fail to take out their licenses,
and that others psy on one or two dogs when
owning and harboring more, or who send
such dogs away during the summer months
and bring them back in the fail.
Ny attention has been called to this eva.
sion of the law, and I shall require the po.
licemen to report all such cases, and fines will
be imposed upon those who fail to take out
licenses.
Gs-1'he police officers will be required to
report all violations of this law.

ARRESTING THE SALE OF LANDS.

The correspondence between the Ha-
in Washington is published in another
column. It should be read with much
care, as it indicates the reasons why
the Hawaiian Government continued
after annexation to sell public lands.
The government was anxious to avoid
mistakes, and its first letter was for
warded to Washington before actual
annexation took place. Those who
will read the correspondence will see
the reasons why the government con-
tinued to administer the laws as they
existed before annexation took place.
The subject is an important one, and
should be carefully considered

A BOTTOMRY BOND

A bottomry bond is an instrument
executed by the owner or master of a
vessel, by which the vessel, or the yes
sci and her cargo is pledged for the
payment of money, advanced for en-
abling the master or owner to pay for
real and pressing needs, such as re-
pairs, supplies used in the construction
Of a vessel, Or for food anu provisions
required to maintain the crew, or for
the payment of their wages. The lend
er of the money must see to it that
the money is neeueu for these, and no
other purposes. The bond cannot be
taken for a personal debt of the owner
or captain. 1t becomes due, as a rule.
when the vessel reaches her port of
destination, although it's terms may be
varied. A large tale of interest may be
taken on the money advanced because
the security for the money so advanced
is the vessel and cargo. Ii these are
lest, and there is no insurance. the
captain are not personally responsible
for it. When the owner of the bond
attempts to enforce it. he must show
that it was taken for money used for
the benefit of the vessel. AS vessels
are often disabled on the high seas,
and need repairs, and food supplies in
foreign ports, the only method in the
olden time of obtaining supplies or of
making the necessary repairs, was by
the execution of bottomry bond At
the present time, this is generally I'M
necessary, because in the largest num-
Der of foreign ports, the owners can
be reached by cable telegram, and the
money can be provided for by telegra-
phic order.

that the automobile, or self-moving
carriage, for street purposes, antedates
the locomotive and was suggested by
Sir Isaac Newton as early as 1880. OF
course, all the early self-propelled car
riages were driven by steam, but over
20 are said TO have been running in
London in 1893, and it seems that they
were quite common for several years,
until the fierce opposition of the stage

much legal regulations of these vehi-
cles, which finally regulated them

II the President has the power to
suspend our local laws he has the
power to suspend the penal contract la
Dor laws. The denunciations of the
Supreme Court by the Special Agents
organ, for it's decisions on the Consti-
tutional question, should be now direct
ed against the President because he
did not direct the court to hold that
the Constitution extended to these ISL
ands. Possibly Counsellor Gear is now
in Washington asking him to direct the
court to review it's action, or to insist
on his making an order suspending the
penal contract labor laws.

There is one curious feature Of the
situation. The organ of the Special
Diplomatic Agent of President McFin-
Iey's Administration, complains with
incoherent bitterness about the per-
verse and "un-American" conduct of
this local government. 1t seems to be
quite ignorant of the extremely pleas
ant relations existing between the local
and national government, although
there are vigorous efforts made to dis
turb those relations.
The officers of the local government
have, from time to time, informed the
Executive in Washington about the dis
puted points arising out of the very
general, and therefore indefinite terms
of the Newlands' resolution. But the
Executive in Washington, for more
than a year, has been occupied by
pressing public affairs, including the
many questions connected with the
Spanish war, and it has not always
duly considered the embarrassing
points raised by the President. The
orders excluding the Chinese, is an
illustration of this.

SUSPENDING LAWS.

The Presidents order directing the
suspension of the registration of yes
sells under the Hawaiian flag relieves
the local government from the pres
sure of applicants for the registry of
foreign vessels.
The municipal laws of Hawaii permit
and regulate the registration of foreign
vessels, and the courts have so decided.
The Newlands' resolution provided that
the municipal laws should remain in
force. until changed by Congress. But
the Newlailds' resolution also provided
that until Congress enacted laws, THE
civil, judicial and military power ex-
erciSed by the officers of the existing
government in said islands shall be
vested in such person or persons and
shall be exercised in such manner as
the President of the United States shall
direct"
The President interprets the words
power shall be exercised in such man
ner as the President shall direct" as
a grant Of authority to him suspend
the election and the registry laws.
Practically, and for the best govern
ment of this Territory, such great and
absolute power in a President like Nc
Kinley is a wise provision. He will
not, Intentionally, abuse it. But the
provision is far reaching 1t gives
him, if his Interpretation is correct.
the right to suspend any law of the
Territory. Ii the military command
ant should cause hundred citizens to
be shot, without cause, the President
can order all of the laws which provide
for the punishment for murder to be
suspended. He can, at his pleasure, re-
verse the judgments of the courts, in
any matter whatsoever. In fact, under
this Interpretation of the NewlandS'
Resolution, his will and pleasure is the
law of the land. If in a litigation, the
Supreme Court should confirm Mr..
Desky's title to the land on Pacific
Heights, the President under this pow
er to direct the judicial officers of
the government, could direct the court
TO make a judgment declaring that Mr..
Desky had no title to the land
What can prevent him, excepting his
own sense of justice, from directing the
civil officers to seize the Kaimuki tract
turn it into a reservation, without COM
pensatiOn to the owners, and then
direct the judicial officers to sustain
the action of the civil authorities? If
he is told that the municipal laws pro-
vide for compensation to the owners,
he may reply, Il have suspended those
laws and the civil and judicial Off
GERS must exercise their powers as |
direct. For so the Newlands' resolu-
ton says
OF course, the President will not act
unjustly in any matter whatsoever, if
correctly informed. Under the circum-
stances he requires ample authority in
governing these Islands. He has now
suspended several of our municipal
laws, with advantage to our interests.
But whether the Federal courts would
sustain his broad Interpretation of the
provision giving him the power to
direct the exercise of the judicial
and civil officers here, without any
limitations upon his acts, is an inter
esting question.

had, from the day of annexation, an
able lawyer in Washington, who could
at quick notice, inform the Executive
upon matters relating to our affairs,
especially so, when it become only too
manifest that the Special Diplomatic
Agent of the United States here was
not only unfriendly TO the local govern
ment, but would be pleased TO see ii
embarrassed. However such an agent
was not appointed, and the means of
communication, between the two gov
