Felony is defined in the same laws as
follows:
Section 8. The terms felony and crime
are within the meaning of the provisions
o. this code synonymous, and mean such
offenses as are punishable with death or
| il. rrisonment for longer period than
two years or by the forfeiture of any civil
or political right and also larceny. Any
| offense not appearing to be felony or
| crime is a misdemeanor.'
Section 304 of the same laws divides the
offense Of libel into two degrees and the
degree is to be found by the jury, OF de-
I tel mined by the Court or Magistrate au-
| thoriZed to decide on the facts
| Section 5S4 gives District Magistrates
jurisdiction for the prosecution, rria
and sentence of any person charged witt
leither of the following offenses, namely
any misdemeanor. -
! 1t thus appears that there may be a tria
and conviction for libel by a court o.
magistrate without the intervention of
jury. There was, however, in this cas-
a trial by jury, as shown by the petition
the grievance set up being that the yer
Gict of guilty was found and returned b.
nine jurors whereas three jurors dissent
ed which verdict" the petitioner al
leges, was and is contrary to the Sixtl
Amendment of the Constitution of tn
: United States
Section 3, Article g. of the Constitution
OF the Republic of Hawaii, authorized tn
Legislature to fix the number of juror
required to agree on a verdict in of
lenses less than relonies.'

NOT INFAMOUS CRIME.

Il
| In pursuance of this constitutional pro-
vision there was enacted by the Legisla-
| ture of the Republic OF Hawaii (section
ii345, Civil Laws law providing that mo
! jury, for the trial of any case, civil or
CT iminal, shall be less than twelve in
number: but when nine of such jury shall
agree upon verdict, they may render the
same, and such verdict shall be as valid
and binding upon the parties as il render
ed by all twelve
"he> first point urged upon the Court
was that the petitioner had been convict
ell of IAN infamous crime but upon the
argument 1t was admitted that petitioner
was not convicted of an infamous crime
hut of misdemeanor, which seems to be
horne out by the statutes of the Republic
If Hawaii hereinbefore referred to.
At the common law the crimes which
rendered a person infamous were treason,
felony and crimen falsi Gu. s. VS.. Block,
4 Sawy. 21D.' In the same case it is held
that it is not the character of the punish
ment, but the nature of the act that
makes the crime infamous.
The Sixth Amendment of the Constitu-
ton manifestly applies only to trials OF
criminal offenses which are triable only
BY jury and by what is known as a com.
mon law jury, and are above the grade
of misdemeanors, which latter offense:
are peculiarly within the jurisdiction o
Ma gistrates sitting alone, and do not nee
essarfly require jury.
AS before stated. section SO of The Ac
OF Congress for the government of tn
Territory of Hawaii, in part reads a
follows:
That the laws of Hawaii relative to tn
! judicial department including civil an
criminal procedure are CONTINUES
in force subject to modification by Con
J gress or the Legislature No per

that the club could be made ready before
February l. but 1t Is the intention OF the
parties interested to wait until the demand
for boxing is SO great that any opposition
that may spring up will have little weight

Power Too Much Centralized.
Members of the charter revision commits
sion are now all back in New York and will
again begin the sessions October that
the report may be ready to go to the gov
ernor December L. in accordance with the
legislative act. 1t is not probable that any
more public meetings will be held. 1t can
be stated that the commission will recon-
mend some plan of decentralization Of
power, returning to the separate borOughs
Greater New York was brought into exist
ence.
1t has not yet been determined how far
the commission will go along this line
Several members favor borough councils,
leaving to the central government no great
power save that of levying assessments and
collecting taxes. That the dual system Of
city legislature will be condemned Is Ger
tain. A strong plea will be made for sin
gle board OF aldermen. Recommendations
VIII be made that the mayors power of re-
moval be extended through his entire term
of office. Municipal ownership of all water
rights. wharves and docks will be urged.
