Egyptian Darkness

If something is not done and that
something done quickly the city will
have big suit on ITS hands, and not a
spring suit or summer suit, either, but an
all around suit of thousands Of dollars.
Last night the entire city was in total
darkness from about 10 o'clock on, and
those returning from the ball at ST..
Johns College had to pick their way
homeward through torn up streets and
in inky blackness. Ii was Only a m:rci-
full Providence that prevented several
broken necks and fractured limbs. What
must strangers think of city in total
darkness and with torn up streets, too?

HAWAIIAN IN THE COURTS
A CORRESPONDENT TELLS OF I
CASE.
American Held on Charge of Assault
With Intent to Kill But Released by
The Attorney General.

EDITOR STAR: In your semi
weekly issue of September TO- l note
the decision of Judge Gear on the use of
the Hawaiian language in American
courts and would beg leave to state
what l heard in a case tried at Waio-
hino, Kau some months ago. The de-
PENDANT was an American and his attor-
ney was of the same nationality.
The proceedings of the court were
held in Hawaiian The attorney for de-
PENDANT demanded that the court be
held in the language of the nation say
ing that mo American in an American
court could be obliged to stand trial in
language not recognized by his coun-
try" The trial went on in Hawaiian
however, as the judge very truly said
he could not carry it on in English. The
defendant and his attorney could not
understand a word of the proceedings.
and the court could not understand
either defendant or attorney.
The case was on a serious charge "as-
sault with intent to kill' which, if de-
PENDANT was found probably guilty,
would hold him for appearance before
the grand jury six monthhs later. 1t
was held in this case that no harm
could come to defendant as it was only
a commitment case. 1t struck all of us
that understood the proceedings that a
very decided harm would result to de-
remnant IL committed TO DIlSOIl OF Ddll
for six months and particularly so in
this case as the defendant, would
have lost his position, which was a lu-
crative one. If in default of bail he had
been committed, a damage suit would
have certainly followed and that parti-
cular judge might have proved eXpen-
sive.
The whole case seemed to rest on the
intent to kill" part of the charge, and
the court could not be made to under
stand what the English word intent
meant in Hawaiian.
The court held that defendant under
bonds of $1,000. till he heard from the At
torney General who advised him to at
once release defendant which was done
after four weeks Imprisonment (under
BALD. Defendant undoubtedly had, and
has a good case for false imprisonment
all because the appointing powers over
ride the law and appoint incompetent
officers. If in this case the judge had
understood English it would have been
as patent to him as it was to the rest
of US that there was no evidence to hold
the defendant "on intent to kill"
Judge Gear truly intimates that such
changes should be made as will in
sure the rights and fair trial of Ameri-
cans in American courts. Good men
can be had in every district, if the in
habtants are consulted, and true re-
publicanism advanced if appointments
are made that meet with endorsement
by the community.

JAP VS.. PAKE.

HILO, September 2O.-A malicious in
jury case in the District court brings
out some of the fundamental charac-
teristics of Japanese and Chinese farm
ers. The Japanese, Kawamoto, was
lord of taro patch on land leased from
the Waiakea plantation. The Chinese
sub-leased it with the understanding
that he would plant it to cane. Instead
he planted beans. When they came up
the Japanese was so enraged that he
pulled up the whole crop. The result
is suit against the Jap for malicious
injuEy.-Hilo Tribune.

,r1sERs HOARD THE GOLD.

Why the Treasury Department Is
Unable to Keep Track of the
Eagles 1T Coins.
From the treasury department of the
United States and into that same de-
partment, a never-ending stream of
gold is pouring. 1t is coined gold, at
that, and every piece Of it is kept in
:strictest account. Yet the stream out
going is always the larger; the incom-
ing gold is never so great as that
which is pouring out.
That is because gold is boarded.
Many and many person in the United
States has the saving habit, that the
banks know nothing about. The old
stocking, the little wooden chest, the
iron toy bank-all these gather in part
of that outgoing stream, and that is
why the treasury balance always indi-
Gates more paid out than returns.
England is also a victim Of the gold
boarding habit, and figures are more
easily obtainable there about it than
