The Fish Law.

Attorney General Oren has writ
ten an important opinion for State
Game Warden Morse, in response to
an inquiry as to whether commercial
fish caught in the waters of Canada
or other states than Michigan may
be sold in this state under the pres
ent laws in this state. The attorney
general after discussing the laws
bearing on the subject, lays down
his conclusions as follows: "For-
eign-caught fish that are immature
according to the Michigan standard,
cannot be held or marketed in this
state at any time. AS to such fish
the season is continuously closed.
Foreign caught fish that were
caught contrary to the laws of th.'
state or country whore they werl
caught, cannot be held or marketed
in Michigan. Between the 10Th day
Of November and the 18th day of
December, fish caught in foreign
waters between those dates cannct
be held or marketed in Michigan.

RELATIVE TO TAX TITLES
Supreme Court Makes An I'M
pOrtant Ruling.

The case of Gates VS.. Johnson, de-
cided by the supreme court Tuesday,
will be referred to by lawyers here
after as settling several points Of
law affecting tax titles. Gates re.
ceived certain lands ,on tax title,
and Johnson contests the legality of
the title. The court holds the title
good. Johnson contended that the
court rendering the decree against
the lands was not in session for five
days after the date set for hearing
the tax matters, and shows that the
circuit judge was absent, court be-
ing opened and closed by the sheriff
The supreme court holds that as the
sheriff was acting under the orders
of the Judge and as Johnson filed no
protest against the Sale, he cannot
now object.
The contention that there was no
certified copy of the courts decree
attached to the tax record is
answered by the supreme court,
which says that the certified copy is
not that which confers jurisdiction
to sell the lands, but the decree it.
self.
1t was also indicated that it was
immaterial whether the extension
of the taxes opposite the lands Of
Johnson was made before or after
the decree was signed.

Austin's Hawaiian weekly. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1899-190?, 1899-09-30
AUST1N'S HAWAIIAN WEEKLY.

Anti-expansion. This, in a nutshell, re-
presents the attitude of the Democratic party.
Free Silver is not abandoned by the Bryan
wing of the party, but is to be buried under
the other two, with Ant-expansion as the
paramount issue.
There is danger to the nation in all of the
issues of the Democratic party In 1896 the
majority of the people of the United States
expressed themselves against free silver
and repudiaton in no uncertain terms. Radi-
cal antitrust legislation would at once dis
organize the business of the whole country
that has so suddenly, for economical reasons,
drifted into trust organizations. Anti-expan-
sion means the withdrawal of the army from
the Philippines, the REIMBURSEMENT of terri
tory won and purchased from Spain, and
national dishonor

Progress II the Pacific.

While the anti-expansionist are airing their
views on the mainland,
Secretary Root and and trying to make politi-
the Philippines. cal capital for the cam
paign of 1900, Mr.. Root,
Secretary of War, is pushing troops on to
Manila with extraordinary energy. The ar
rival of transports in Honolulu harbor is
almost daily occurrence. No Secretary of
War ever entered Office with greater response
ties thrust upon him than Secretary Root, and
no appointment has been more heartily ap-
proved by the people of the United States.
This unanimity of goodwill is due partly to
the universal feeling of relief at the retirement
of Alger, who was undoubtedly the weakest
Secretary of War that ever held the office.
Although this circumstance is favorable to
Mr.. Root, it is not the chief cause of his
popularity. All the reviews of his career
show him to be strong man, eminently fitted
to discharge faithfully the responsible duties
that have fallen to his lot, and the energy he
has displayed in reinforcing the army in the
Philippines is evidence that the favorable esti-
mate of his abilities is not misplaced.
Austin's Hawaiian weekly. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1899-190?, 1899-09-30

The appointment of ex-Minister Sewall as Gov
ernor of the Territory of Hawaii would be obnox-
ious to a large element of whites who have been
identified with Hawaii for over quarter of a cen
tury and slap in the face of everything Hawaiian
as instituting carpet-bagsm. Early in the eighties
the Congress of the United States declared it to be
principle of the nation that the territories should
have home rule; that the governor and all officers
should ,ir-as-far as expedient, be appointed from
persons resident in the territory. Mr.. Mckinley
then a member of the House of Representatives,
was on the committee that passed favorably upon
this measure 1t is only justice to say that Pres
ident Mckinley, during his tenure of office, has
adhered to this policy where an appontee could be
found that would not precipitate, by his appoint
n1ent a local political fight in the territory. Will
he follow this well-deined policy in the appoint
nent of the Governor of the Territory of Hawaii?
If the desire for annexation to the United
States had been unanimous among the people of
the Hawaiian Islands, or, if even majority elig-
ibe to vote had been in favor of it, President Dole
would undoubtedly be the natural candidate for
the future Governor of the Territory of Hawaii
But Mr. Dole, whatever may be his personal quail
ifications and most exceptional Abilities in no
sense represents the whole people of Hawaii In
fact, by very large contingent of those who will,
in the future become earnest and sincere citizens
of the United States he is regarded as one of the
arch consprators who assisted President McKin-
Islands. No one for moment doubts that Pres
ident Dole and his friends sincerely believed that
they done their duty to the people of Hawaii in
the role they played in assisting the bringing
about of annexation and many Royalists, now
that annexation is an assured fact believe in max
ing the best of it. In fact. all Hawaiians who did
not take the oath of allegiance to the Republic feel
disposed for self-proection to take the oath to the
United States when the time comes. But the fact
remains that, although Mr. Dole is Hawaiian by
birth and afiliation, his appointment as Governor
of the Territory of Hawaii would cause as many
local dssensons, if not more than the appoint
ment of eN-NIinister Sewall. 1t is condition and
as such must be faced.
We are told by Senator Clark, and Others that
President Mckinley desires above all things to
maks such appointments as will avoid the precp-
itation of local dssenson. If so he must appoint
some one to this exalted office who can ar1alga-
mate all local factions. Such man can be found.
If the President should make the mistake of ap-
pointing Governor for Hawaii from the United
States he would undoubtedly lose two delegates
in the national convention: create most lament
able local bitterness to which the Royast fight
was but child's play A reasonable display of wis
dom and common sense could avoid all this.
