Cases where a Chinese returns after
many years and claims the right of citi-
Zenship require the narrowest scrutiny,
and Judge Estee very promptly turned
down an applicant yesterday. Unfor-
tunately for themselves the willy celes-

reputation for false personation, even
arriving with photographs manifestly
the pictures of entirely different per-
sons. Whether the person presenting
himself was the original Lau Sam or as
good an imitation of him as could be
made up, the court could not know,
and Chinese oaths do not go for much
in American courts.

THE GRAND JURY.

The Grand Jury has made it's report
and has been discharged from further
duty. The original charge to the Grand
Jury was a practical arraignment of
some of the departments of the govern
ment, notably of the police and of the
insane asylum. Certain newspapers
were full of bitter invective against the
former department, but the investiga-
tons of the jury have cleared the po-
lice department very thoroughly.
The sale Of liquors at the Waikiki
resorts on Sundays is the first subject
handled. The grand jury found that
such had been the case, but the parties
engaged in the trade voluntarily stated
that such was the case and considered
that their special licenses covered these
sales. The jury found that there was
technical guilt and indicted the pro-
prietors, but at the same time put a
rider on their report. They point out
that the proprietors did not Intention
ally violate the law, that the sale of
liquor on Sundays at respectable re-
sorts lessened drunkenness, and rec
commended liberal treatment by the
government. When the cases come be-
fore jury, these remarks are likely
to have considerable weight Thus one
lurid wrong doing disappeared in a
very thin haze.
The insane asylum was investigated
and the charge of neglect against DIR.
Herbert fell to the ground. "A resident
physician was recommended andss such
can be obtained when there is a pro-
per appropriation for the office made
by the legislature. So another cloud
was blown away
And so it has gone on all along the
line. The houses of prostitution could
not be improved upon as to location.
there was no evidence that the police
officers took brides or abused their au-
thority, there was no evidence that the
police illegally appropriated the money.
As a fact the police department after a
searching investigation has come out
cleared of the gossiping charges made
against it. The police is always the
putt of the disgruntled, and every
criminal feels himself aggrieved by ar
rest There is always, more or less a
floating charge among this class that
the police arc corrupt The charge is so
easy to make, and is so readily swal-
lowed by the gullible. AS a fact though
individual members of the force may
have at times proved corrupt and have,
on discovery, been promptly removed,
the police force, as now conducted is
an exceptionally fine body and one
which any city or territory might be
proud of.
1t is a satisfaction also to find that
all the vaporing about the favoritism
shown by former judges gets properly
and thoroughly squelched by the Grand
Jury. In speaking of an article in a
morning journal which was the basis
of the charge and which caused the
investigation the jury says 1--WE con-
denim such serious charges without evil
dence 10 spbstantiate them" which
most effectually disposes of the matter.
One or two members of the bar have
vapored in the same way and may take
this condemnation to heart.

The work Of the Grand Jury has been
onerous and has been performed with
an even mindedness and fairness that
has done credit to the members. The

Grand Jurors for their able work, and

Instruction In Kentucky.

Kentucky must now work out her own
salvation or destruction. The murder

law now rules the community, and
the prospect is that there will be an
actual clash OF arms before the two
parties settle down to reason and self
restraint. The right is wholly with the
Republican administration of the state
There Is no conceivable color of JUS
tice In the action of the Democratic
Legislature; and II would be strange
community that should submit unpro-
testingly to such shameless subver-
sion OF political rights.
II must be remembered that the re-
cent election was conducted under the
law that Goebei himself had framed for
the purpose. II gave TO the Democrats
every opportunity to twist the returns
to suit themselves. II created a can
vassing board so constituted4hat it was

lily OF Republican success. no matter
what might be the verdict at the polls
In spite Of all these precautions. the
Republican candidate was chosen gov
ernor. What his actual majority must
have been may be imagined when even
the returns as canvsssed declared him
elected. Aud the board that Goehel
had created to step in at this stage

fused to 80 behind the returns and gave

Men tell how states have been under
mined by the growth of wealth and
luxury. They fell only when civic vir-
tue was corrupted and each man and
Office had a price. And that came
through slow process of deteriora-
ton. when men learned to endure and
then embrace.
Not against armed invasion should
the alarm be sounded more clear
ly than against the insidious foe
that menaces our institutions from
within. We need a strong public sem
timent and a vigorous expression OF It..
No matter what his wealth or station
or influence, we must ostracize in public
and in private life the man who at
tempts to purchase place or to buy legis-
lation. 1t is the worst form of treason,
because the end can be only the destruc-
ton of the state. Let Montana stamp
with lasting shame the men who have
brought her to dishonor And let us
have everywhere a new test applied
that no man can hope for preferment
at the hands of the people unless his
record in this respect is clear OF all
suspicion.

soon; and the place to begin Is at the
beginning. This is in the setting of
curbs, leaving boulevard or small
parkway on either side between the out
er line of the sidewalk and the street.
1t is comparatively inexpensive, and 1t
adds immensely TO the beauty of resi-
| dence street. 1t has been found In the
cities Of the East that a width OF
twenty-eight feet of actual street sur.
face is ample for a residence district.
The restriction of it's width adds to that
of the boulevard, and at the same time
1t decreases the area of pavement that
must be laid later on; a very material
consideration. On streets where there
is no business twenty-eight feet will be
found to answer every purpose. This.
bordered by neat curbing. with we'll
kept grass plots and shade trees &C.
cupying the little parkway, makes an
arrangement beautiful to the eye and
not a burden to the pocket.
This is only the first step. AS mat
ter of fact, 1t is none too soon TO agi-
tate the subject Of paving also. Every
street between Second avenue and
Broadway and from yesler TO Pike will
have to be paved in the near future.
Their present condition and the increase
of travel with the growth OF population
are sufficient arguments. The sooner
the work is done. the better for the
city and the property holder. For Seat
tie will be no exception to the universal
rule which shows that permanent i'm
provements of this nature add to the
actual selling value of real estate far
more than their cost. II the people Of
this district. the first to feel the neces-
sity and to start the ball rolling, shall
irsist on substantial pavements put
down on concrete foundations, they will
have added greatly to their resources
as well as to the beauty and repute Of
the city as place of residence. Mean
time we are glad to see at least a be-
ginning made of the good work by the
movement for parking and identifying
the streets.

The Committee Meeting.

The meeting of the Republican state
central committee yesterday was en-
tirely harmonious, and was devoted
mainlyeto deciding upon the preliminar-
les of the coming convention to nomi-
nate delegates to the national conven-
ton of the party. The place selected,
Ellensburg, and the date, April 4. will
both be satisfactory to the Republicans
Of the state. Ellensburg is convenient
ly located and is entitled to some COM
pensation for the entertainment II has
had to give in the past to the political
curiosities that held conventions there.
April 4 is a date when the Republicans
of the state win be able TO lead the van
of the Mckinley column that is to
march to victory next November.
There is no dissenson. we may say
no difference of opinion within the Re-
ington. There is but one platform and
will be but one candidate commanding
their entire and enthusiastic allegiance.
Protection and sound money have their
record for the last four years to show
and will stand by 1t. Expansion. ac-
cording to the policies followed and the
principles announced by the admins-
tration. is welcome gospel to the peo-
pie of the Pacific Northwest. These are
the main outlines OF platform which.

the excitement over Goebels murder,
that Gov. Taylor has met by a procla-
nation of martial law. 1t is a strong
remedy, demanded by an unusual con-
dition. And the spectacle of the state
militia chasing legislators about the
streets to keep them from meeting is a
companion piece to the spectacle of a
legislature prepared, by a strict party
vote, to Gust governor elected by the
people and set a pretender in his place.
There is no bright prospect for an
early settlement of Kentucky's troubles.
Neither side viii be quick to yield. The
Democrats have gone so far that they
are ashamed to draw back. The Re-
publicans feel that they have no right
to surrender the authority of the state
to the hands of a body of revolution
lists. There will probably be two iegis-
latures and two governments command
ing the allegiance of the people. IL
passions can be held in check, no doubt
the questions between them will ulti-
mately be decided by the courts as
they have been in other cases where
dual governments were set UP. But the
progress OF the dispute thus far and
the temper and record OF Kentucky
held out little promise OF final settle
ment without bloodshed and possible
civil war.
