MANY CHANGES
New Officers Learning
The Ropes,
Governor Dole Decides 10 CONTINUE
System OF ESs.ltiys Councils,
Auditor Busy

There were changes all along the line
IN the offices ~ the Government yester-
day. owing TO Hawaifs becoming Ter
rltory. In nearly all ~ the offices there
was little business transacted, the new
officers and their deputies devotng their
time largely to famliarizing themselves
with the new laws and conditions. II
will be come days before the business OF
the Territory begins TO run smooth y
once more for In most OF the depart
ments entirely new systems OF doing
business will be introduced, and the du-
ties OF other departments will be en-
tirely different from that under the Re
public.
Governor Dole has decided to continue
the system OF Executive Councils. These
conferences of the officials OF the Ter
ritory will not have powers to pass au-
thoritatively on any questions. but they
will pe of assistance to all the officers,
keeping the head of each department in
touch with the others. Governor Doe
was anxious to have the Cabinet idea
embodied in the bio creating Hawaii a
Territory. but 1t was cut out in Con
gress. There Is nothing In the bill pro-
hibiting these conferences, and they will
be continued, Governor Dole states, for
he considers them a great source Of
strength 20 the Government.
Henry 10. Cooper Secretary of the Ter
ritory, occupied yesterday the suite OF
rooms he occupied when he was Min
lister of Foreign Affairs under the Re
public, before he became Attorney Cen
eral. Besides his duties as Secretary Of
the Territory, he will for time have to
act as Territorial Treasurer, to which
Office he was appointed pro tempore yes
terday by Governor Dole, who has not
received a satisfactory answer from the
man whom he wishes to fill that office.
Mr. Cooper will "A SO have the conduct
of the Territorial elections under his
care. This work was in charge of the
Interior Department under the Replb-
lie. Wray Taylor will continue in the
capacity of Registrar. Mr.. Coopers first
official act was to sign the notice FOR
publication Of the appointment of the
Governor.
The old Interior Department becomes
the Board of Public Works under the
new order of things. Superintendent
hcCandIess is still out of town, so the
work of his department Is at a standstill
for some days. The clerks in the de-
partment have been paid off and were
busy yesterday closing up lot of Old
business. Portions of the work which
was formerly handled by the office Will
deVolve upon the Treasury and Attor
ney Generals departments Mr.. Row
ell, who has acted as Superintendent of
Public Works, Will probably be retained
in the office under the new regime as Il
deputy. EXSecretary Young states that
there is enough work in the office to
require the services of Mr. RoWell and
several others as well. The work has
been so much better systematized of
late that much more can be accomplish
ed than formerly in this office, and 1t
is expected that when Mr.. McCandless
returns the department Will be but Il
short time in getting into good shape.
The Auditors office was about the
only one to present its usual busy state
yesterday. As Auditor IL. G. Austin was
Auditor General under the Republic,
and simply drops the General under
the Territory, there Will be very few
changes necessary in his department.
AS the custom house and postotiice will
hereafter be out of the Auditors hands,
there will be fewer warrants to draw
and reduction of the force may result
The Judiciary Department will go on
temporarily as before. Judges Stanley
and Wood were both on duty yesterday
as usual and transacted business as be-
fore. Chief Clerk Henry Smith swore in
the deputies and there was no cessation
of business.
Before administering the oath to Gov
ernor Dole on Wednesday, Justice Frear
was himself sworn in as Justice OF the
United States his commission as Chief
Justice not having arrived. Henry Smith
administering the oath. Then Justice
Frear swore in Mr.. Smith.
The Educational Department will be
In running order early next week, SUI
perintendent Atkinson said yesterday.
New blanks were received in the office
yesterday and the work of the office was
going on as usual.
ihe Police Department will witness
few changes. Much OF the work which
has heretofore come under its direction
Will devolve upon United States Mar
shall Ray. whenever he shall arrive. Mr..
Ray will have charge of all postofice
and internal revenue business, snug
giing and Illicit distlling, and will prob
ably appoint several deputies in the
other Islands on his arrival. Until his
arrival and the establishment of the
Marshars office on working basis,
High Sheriff Brown will look after
smugglers. and the cases OF such men
will come before the Federal courts.
Attorney General Dole and Deputy
Cathcart were In their offices yesterday
as usual and their department will soon
be In working order.
No Commissioner of Agriculture has
yet been appointed, and Mr., Hlughs
Is carrying on the work of the office for
the present
Inc ianu once mas mucn business SUN
on hand. and IT will be some time before
1t will be cleared up. There viii be very
few changes in the office. as far as could
be ascertained
Although Dr. Wood, president Of the
Board of Health. has resigned, the
Board continues to carry on its work as
usual. and 1t is probable that there Will
be few other changes. Almost all OF the
present Board will continue in office.
