THE, KAHUKU TRIALS.

The verdict OF the jury acquitting
to the SENSE of Justice of the commu-
nifty. It stands menace to the public
peace and1asafety.
The undisputed facts are that three
Cinnamon were killed, and score Sc
riously injured by mob of japanese,
not one of whom was even scratched.
On the evidence of number OF re-
sponsible, white and native witnesses,
who had no interest in the affair, it
was shown that the Japanese We're the
aggressors. A trial of the leaders of
the mob resulted in conviction; the
sentence of one to death and several
others to long terms of imprisonment.
Several of the leaders plead guilty
to charges of manslaughter. Upon a
trial of other members of the mob
who were side by side with the muir
derers who have been convicted, upon
practically the same evidence, Ho-
nolulu Jury of white men has rendered
a verdict acquitting them all.
The only defense put forward by the
accused was the cock and bull story
that the. murdered and wounded chi
namen made a sudden, fierce and muir
derous attack upon the Japanese, and
that the latter acted in self-defense
The story is preposterouS. All Of the
disinterested witnesses deny it. The
attack was made at the Chinese camp.
The Japs went there armed. The Chi
nese had no arms, made no defense,
and not a Jap was injured. while the
blood upon the walls, floors and even
in the beds of the Cinnamon all dem
onstrates that the attack made by the
Japs was SO sudden, aggressive and
bloody that the Cinnamon could not
even get away, much less begin the
fight.
All this the jury has ignored, and
the guilty, but unconvicted rioters are

PRESIDENT M'KINLEY'S ORDER.

Acting under the power conferred
upon him by the annexation resolu-
ton, President Mckinley has fndefi-
nitely postponed the election of the
Hawaiian Legislature, which would
otherwise have taken place mex Sep
TENDER.
By the same order he continues in
Office all elective officers, subject to
his pleasure.
This order has given somewhat Of a
shock to some of our citizens, SAVIOR
ing, as it does, of absolute power. 1t
is fully provided for, however, in the
Annexation Resolution, which reads
that:
Until Congress shall provide for
the government of the Islands, all the
civil, judicial and military powers ex-
ercised by the officers of the existing
Government in said Islands shall be
vested in such person or persons, AS
THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES SHALL DIRECT; and the
President shall have power to remove
said officers and to fill the vacancies
so occasioned'
The President has simply directed
that the functions of the Legislature
shall be exercised by the present mem
bers Of the Legislature instead of by
others who might be elected.
The President expresses the hope that
Congress will pass an act providing for
the government OF Hawaii, before Feb
ruary next, the regular date for the
meeting of the Legislature. If, how
ever, such is not the case the country
will again learn eff not, why not
from the present Honorable mem
bers," unless the President again ex-
ercises his prerogative, removes the
present members of the Legislature
and appoint Others of his own choos-
ing
Nothing can be more puerila and
far-fetched than the laboriou5 effort
which has been made to cast discredit
upon the local Government because it
has gone on with preparations for the
election.
The annexation resolution provides
that:
'The municipal legislation of the
Hawaiian Islands not incOn- |
sistent with this joint resolution, nor
contrary to the Constitution of the |
United States, shall remain in force |
until the Congress of the United States
shall ut herWiSe DrOvide
In the Presidents proclamation at
the flag-raising, on August 18th last,
he reiterated this provision and con-
Guided with the words.
Under these various provisions che
government of the Islands will proceed
without interruption"
1t is the business of the local Gov
eminent to continue to execute fla-
waiian laws as though annexation had
not taken place, except as to limited
class of matters in which the election
was not included.
The holding Of the election was a
law mandatory upon the Government.
President Mckinley, and he alone, had
power to direct that one set of men
and not another should be Hawails
legislators. He has ''direc,cd,' and
that ends it.
