PAYING THE CLAIMS.

That the fire claims will be paid may
be put down as a self evident truth
1t remains only for determination Of
the ways and means.
The Gilfillan bill tends in the right
direction. Some sort Of body must
be established to determien the justice
Of demands for damages. yet II 1t is the
intention for the proposed commission
to take up the individual demand of
every man, woman and child, the
claims commission will be assured per.
manent existence and our children's
children will have an. opportunity to
sit on the commission to determine
the damage done by the Chinatown fire
of 1900. individual japanese and Chi
nese will doubtless cause the greatest
difficulty. Chinatown was crowded
with an Oriental population whose lit
tie all consisted of few trinkets ana
perhaps an extra suit of clothes. 1t
is the easiest thing in the world for
such people TO turn In a claim for $3.50
and equally difficult to dispute this
claim.
Hawaii can deal with its own people,
merchants and householders whose
property was in evidence. Should the
courts, the commission or the Legisla-
ture propose to deal with each claim.
ant individually the work will be in
terminable and the result unsatisfac-
tory to all concerned. .-
In handling the small japanese and
Chinese claimants. arbitrary action by
appropriation in lump sum should he
taken. leaving 1t to the respective Con-
suls to parcel out the funds among
their own people. So far as Japan is
concerned 1t is safe to predict that
any plan productive of long delays will
result in a diplomatic demand upon
the United States and indirectly on the
Territory. This demand will be force.
full and require immediate attention.
The Legislature should forestall such
possibility II possible This Vt can
do by placing the responsibility OF the
distribution among foreign claimants
upon the shoulders of the foreign con-
suls.

New Haven, Conn, Feb. 11.-Justice
Brewer of the Supreme Court today
opehed the Dodge lecture, course at
Yale with an address on '"The Respon-
sibilities Of Citizenship" Judge Brew
er said: There may be other nations
with more territory, larger history and
greater military power. but there is
none in which the right Of man is de-
fSlded as here. II the effort made to
establish popular government falls we
may well believe that the failure will
be final and irretrievable. The last
hopes OF mankind rest with us. The
knell OF human liberty may be sound
ed II our government falls. Here each
man is a ruler.
Dangers beset the development Of
the Republic in which there is no re-
straint except that which the citizens
themselves impose. The danger is that
the people may forget the constitu-
tional compact and overthrow the

SOLDIERS SELL CLOTHING

The fishmarket and the Pacific Mail
wharf and streets leading from the
transport Sheridan thereto were filled
with buyers and sellers yesterday and
all Wednesday morning.
The sellers were soldiers from the
transport, the buyers were hackmen,
dock laborers and the people coming
and going from the fshmarket. Shoes
shirts, blouses. blankets and overcoats
belonging to Uncle Sam were freely
offered for sale at prices which would
lead an intending purchaser to almost
understand that the goods were not
come by honestly.
A fine pair of shoes was sold for one
dollar and halT while an overcoat
went for three dollars. Rlouses went
for from dollar 70 two dollars and
blue flannel shirts we're drug in the
market. Twenty-Five to thirty-five
cents was the ruling prrce.
Men on all the transports coming
here have carried on brisk trade in
government clothing and supplies but
never has the thing been carried on so
OPENLY as at the present time and In
broad daylight Should the officers in
command of the troops on the vessel
care to do II they would have no diff
Guilty whatever In finding many of
their men in the retail clothhg and
gents furnishing goods business and
doing a, lively trade in wearing apparel
supposed to be for the use OF Uncle
| Sans enlisted men.

The value Of not a few of the bills
already before the Legislature will de-
pend largely upon the fate of the NUM-
cipal government plan. The Hooss
underground wire measure while with
in the province of the Territorial law
makers to act upon, would under a
municipal government be more appro-
pirate for the city council to handle.
In view OF the changes in taxation, OFF,
cial salaries and specifically local mat
tiers certain to come before the Legis-
lature and dependent largely upon the
decentralization of the government, 1t
behooves the municipal rule men to
start their ball rolling as soon as pos
sible.

Last evening the officers of the trans
port Sheridan and a number OF the
smart set of Honolulu, passed very
pleasant few hours at the Hawaiian ho-
tel, tripping the light fantastic.
The affair was gotten up by Captain
Quartermaster Miles of the Sheridan
waiian hotel.
The music for dancing was furnish
ed by quintet from the members OF
the Territorial band, while the brilli-
ant uniforms of the officers and the
attractive dresses of the ladies, added
q decided charm TO the surroundings
Dancing was INDUCED in until late
hour.

Interpretation. The opinion of the To-

that of the President or any other exc

The Bar Association judgeship petit
tion while to the point, comes a lit
tie late in the day to influence Attorney
General Griggs. Mr.. Griggs is to leave
the Cabinet after the Inauguration and
unless he hands the vexed iudgeship
question over to his successor, he will
naturally make his recommendation in
time for the President to make an ap-
pointment previous to the adjournment
of the present Congressional session.
As Griggs has as yet failed to signify
his intention to evade this problem, 1t
is fair to assume that the appointment
will have been made before the petit
tion reaches Washington. II the Bar
or the public wants to know who the
successful candidate will be, the flip
OF a nickel will decide the question as
positively as any local forecast thus
far made.

Dr. w. II. Harris Of Augusta. made an
autopsy on the body. Decided after the
autopsy that Farnham died from acnte
alcoholism, caused by an overdose. Au-
topsy revealed the fact that tha man
had no organic disease and several Of
the organs had the appearance of hay-
ing taken alcohol An overdose of alco-
hol would cause paralysis of the heart
There was nothing to indicate that the
man was an habitual drinker. should
say that anywhere from four to ten
ounces of pure alcohol would kill the
man. Did not find any Walls in the
clothing Of Farnham. Alcohol is a poi
son in sufficient doses.
On cross-examinatiOn by Attorney
Goddard. witness testified that the, q
was congestion of the lungs and liver
revealed at the autopsy. Acute alcohol
ism is where q man dies from an over
dose Of alcohol whether he had or he d
not drank anything before. 1t would not
tave done any harm to have given
I'arnham medicine when he was found.
On cross-examination by Attorney
Baker. witness testified that Farm
hams muscles showed development. A
young man DliS,iit nave crank IltIOf
for a while without showing structural
changes, but an autopsy over the body
Of chronic drunkard would show
changes.
DR.. w. H. Harris of Augusta, who
with DIR. Millikcn performed the au-
topsy. testified that there was Il biocd
ciot in the right side Of the heart. ard
in his opinion the clot had formed lust
prior to death. The clot was caused by
the weak action of the heart and that
weak action by the paralyzing effects
of alcohol. Found no other cause of
death except aCut. alcoholism. Alec
hol is recognized as a poison when
taken in large doses. Should think any
amount of pure alcohol above four
ounces could have caused the death.
on crCss-eXa mination by Attorney
Baker. witness testified that boy Of
eighteen might possibly moderately
drink three or four years without any
structural changes. There was nothing
to tell in the condition of the stomach
that there was any less previous drink
ing. Food taken in grossly excessive
quantities might produce death
