CITIZENSHIP.

The question of citizenship will be
one of the first that will meet us. The
section of the law bearing upon this
matter will be found in another col
umn. In certain cases, the majority
of cases, the matter is perfectly clear,
but there are some points which are
not so clear. When registration takes
place these points will be settled. The
Board of Registration will of course
make a careful study of all such points.
but applicants for registration may not
agree with the ruling of the Board. The
applicant will then be able to take
out a writ of mandamus and in that
way any such point will be able to
come before the courts.
The status of those of nationality
other than Hawaiian or naturalized
Hawaiian will be similar to their status
in the United States. If they want to be-
come naturalized American citizens
they will have to go through the same
routine that they have to in any other
part of the United States.
There is very excellent provision in
the organic law which provides that
before an American citizen can become
a citizen of the Territory of Hawaii
he must be resident for one year. This
requires, therefore, that man to vote
here, must have more than a passing
interest in the place.
There may be some few bitches over
the citizenship, but in the main it is all
plain sailing, and will prove satisfac-
tory to the Hawaiian born, and the
Hawaiian by choice of residence and
interest

PLAGUE IN SYDNEY.

Sydney seems to be in a very bao
way with the plague The problem in
the southern colonial city is really a
very much harder one than we have had
here. We have been able to handle the
situation, and thanks to the determi-
nation of DR.. Wood, and the energy he
infused into his many lieutenants we
have been able to beat the fell destroyer
in four months bout. Fortunately
for us we were able to handle the sltua-
ton. Only for a very short time did it
seem to get out of hand, but our au-
thorities were efficient and able, and
the mistake of one man was overcome
by the determined energy of another.
The mistake made might have been
fatal to us; fortunately it only entailed
additional expense, but all the Islands
will remember the mistake.
In Sydney conditions are very differ
ent from here. In the first place the
population is by no means so amenabie
to control as it has been in Honolulu.
The population is more aggressive, and
at the same time more easily alarmed
than our own, when it comes to ques-
ton of plague. To the present day the
word plague" has fearful sound IN
the ear of the European. In the days
when there were no hygienic laws,
when cities had the filth of ages in
them, plague used to batten upon the
unfortunate inhabitants But if cities
are properly regulated there should be
no epidemic of plague. Man supplies
the material to slaughter himself.
The difficulty of fighting the plague
in Sydney lies in the population 1t is
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-05-10

a city which has found itself unable in
times past to control its '1arrikin" pop
ulation. One only needs to read its
criminal reports to realize that. In a
crisis of this kind, the control of such
a population is absolutely vital and It
does not seem possible that it can be
controlled. Granted that there is a
failure in this direction, and there is a
problem before the Board of Health in
Sydney which is practically insoluble.
The situation as it appears to the
outsider is this. The Sydney authori-
ties are doing all they can; they are
isolating; they abe using every EFFORT
that has been used in India; they are
telegraphing for prophylactie, and so
on. But they have not the situation in
hand, and the plague will probably run
its course in a modified manner, as 1t
did in London in the seventeenth CEN
fury. II anyone wants details of that
let him read Defoe's plague in Lon
don" and Harrison Ainsworths "Old
st. Pauls'," both forgotten books by
the present generation.

KINDLY FEELING.

The action of President Mckinley in
promptly approving the bills passed by
the Council of State shows how anxious
the chief executive is over the welfare
of the new Territory. The anomalous
position we We're in was thoroughly rec
ognized, and every effort was made to
smooth our path. The President has
shown his confidence in the ability and
integrity of the gentlemen who passed
the bills by his prompt acquiescence in
the measures they adopted
The Islands have ever been treated
with especial kindliness by the Presi-
dent. He has personally taken an in
terest in the annexation of the group,
and in the formulation of our organic
law. He has carefully considered the
subject of home rule, and in making his
appointments, considers the Hawaiian
born. His aim seems to have been TO
try and save us from the influence of
the carpetbagger, and there were many
carpetbags ready packed, if their own
ers only got the word.
To this attitude of the President the
new Territory owes much The views
of the President are of great weight
and affect a considerable section Of
those who are in contact with him, and
they in turn affect others, so that his
opinions have an extended influence.
His kindly attitude and solicitude for
the group has been, therefore, reflected
upon many minds and has brought
about. in a large measure, the present
happy result.
Our duty is plain. We have had
valuable birth right conferred upon us,
we have been treated in an exception
ally fair and liberal a manner, and we
ought to so manage our affairs that we
can be pointed to as a credit to those
who have believed in us.
To the masses the new organic law
is especially liberal. Under American
rule they have political privileges
which they never had under the Mon
archy or the Independent Republic.
Having these privileges they should be
used to the best advantage of the Ter
ritory. Upon our orderly and economic
management of our affairs rests the
Though the President and many others
look upon us with kindly eyes, there
are plenty of people who would like to
see our experiment in self government
under American auspices fail
There is no reason why there should
be any failure. We are accustomed to
managing our own affairs. We have a
large number of men who have served
as Legislators, and who understand the
principles Of liberal government. Our
people are educated and the rising
generation will be better educated than
the present. There is no reason why
our public affairs should not be as well
conducted now, as they have been in
the past.
1t cannot too strongly be emphasized
that we are put upon our mettle. 1t is
the interest of every voter in the Ter
ritory to turn out and use the priviI-
ege of his vote. A policy of revenge
which has been advocated in some
quarters would be suicidal to the very
end that is contemplated. A united
effort for liberal government, develop
ment of our industries, efficiency of our
road system, these are the things we
want to look after, and not have a
scramble for office and local bricker-
ings.

The man hunters seem to be abroad
IN the harbor, but with care on the YES
sells, and efficient police supervision
there is no reason to think that these
scalawags will be successful. Captain
Amesbury of the ship s, d. Carleton,
has been very successful, and other
captains, if they look after their ships
will be equally successful in keeping
their men. When the crimp finds that
he cannot make money in nefarious
ways, he will become downright honest,
and that is where shipmasters want to
get him. But shipmasters must be vigil
liant and honest themselves.

law is that after a foreign port has

ports must quarantine for thirty days
