JUSTICE DEMAnUEr

President Mckinley will doubtless be
highly elated with the attempt Of the
local Executive to saddle upon him
the responsibility for the Court OF
Claims This effo< to hide behind the
President was not only brought out by
the Cabinet Ministers before the Coun.
oil OF State. but was again voiced by
Mr.. Mott-Smith's remark, Are they
satisfied with the Court of Claims tina,
Presideot Mckinley has formed? II
they are not. then the Executive Coun
Gil cannot go beyond what president
Mckinley has ordered"
Az has already been stated by THU
paper. a. IL universally recognized BY
the people of these Islands. the Execu.
i've Council Is alone responsible for
the Court OF Claims. The authority
slveu BY the President was simply Q
friendly acQuiescence to the request Of
the local Executive, and the present
attitude OF the Executive Is nothing
more or less than cowardly effort to
shield itself, by throwing the burden of
Its incompetence upon the Republican
Federal Administration. II as charged
BY the Executive. p. c. Jones and the
Council Of State are inconsistent in
their criticism, they have certainly not
received II lesson in consistent and pa
triotic action from the Executive Coun.
ell Of Hawaii.
The resolution offered by Mr.. Bolte
and passed by the Council of State no,
only fulfills the requirements as es
tablished by the common sense judg.
ment of the business community. 1t IL
also consistent with the so-called "in-
structions" of Secretary Hay and thu
tenor of the correspondence with
Washington regarding the Court. That
the Executive has changed its opinion
during the two months taken for de-
liberation after the instructions were
received cannot alter the facts of the
case.
Turning to the text of Secretary Hays |
letter, which the political agent Hart
well says he wrote and which in con-
sequence must have then fulfilled the |
desires of the Executive it appears |
that the President approves Mr.. Dole's
request for the appointment of five |
The object for which |
these commissioners are appointed is |
ito take evidence of losses caused by |
the burning Of Chinatown in Honolulu |
and to make awards or judgments on
such losses" That certain liability Is |
accepted for damage done by the Board |
of Health fires is evidenced by the au-
thority given the Council of State to
pay the awards "out of appropriation
made by the Council of State in con-
formity with Hawaiian laws" The |
whole tenor of this despatch and Hart |
wells letter to Minister Mott-Smith |
dated March 10 indicates that the |
words Gin conformity with Hawaiian
laws" has direct reference to the legis-
lative authority delegated the Coun-
Gil of State by the constitution of the ,
Republic to appropriate funds for |
emergencies of war, invasion, rebel
lion. pestilence or other great public
necessity"
While the Executive Council "ad-
mits no liability" II must accept the
