reason why Judge Humphreys dis
charged him, and as far as the Re-

weeks ago, petition was presented

judge in the Islands with the ex-
ception of Mr.. Geo. A. Davis who
was on the sick list at the time.
Among those who signed the peti.

as Judge Humphreys. What has
occurred that Bench and Bar should
change their minds in regard to the
ability and integrity of Mr., Doyle

WHO is THE LAWYER

The Republican publishes an al
legged interview with prominent
member OF the bar" this morning
in which the prominent member"
is quoted as saying:
"The fact is, that members OF the
bar here have long believed Doyle
incompetent as an interpreter, and
have felt that his presence in any Of
the courts of the islands was rank
injustice. Bssides that, the char
acter of the man ia enough to debar
him from official connection with
any court.
Judge Kaulukou has on several
occasions objected to him as jap
anese interpreter in the courts, in
cases where his clients interests
were at stake but to no effect" = = +
II can speak for the major por
tior Of the bar when l say that the
judges action in removing Doyle is
heartily endorsed by them"
