In the midst OF all this Islander. at
tacks upon the court and bitter strife
carried on to reek Thurstonian ven-
geance on an appointee Of the Presi-
dent 1t is well to look back to the
source Of the struggle. This source is
none other than the charge Of bribery
launched against the Legislature by
the Governor OF the Territory. When
called upon to prove their charges. the
Governor through his official associates
and appointees has used every means
within his grasp to defeat the investi-
cations OF the Grand Jury and has yet
failed to prove that this serious charge
was based on any more positive
grounds than hearsay. This side play
that has come mp In the courts is In

that prompt our executive officials and
the manner Of their action when deal.
ing with American institutions and
called upon to deal with affairs Of great
Importance to the Territory.
Thus far the acts Of these officers
have been along the same old lines Of
Rule or Ruin" They find they cannot
rule. They seek to ruin. Up to the
present they have succeeded in running
nothing more important than their own
regulations. Every step taken by the
Judge whom they assall with Islander
and bitter invective has been within
the law and according to the demand
for justice.
The Bulletin Ia disposed to let the
chief howlers and slanderers howl and
mouth their Islander. Justice Is an
American institution too well estab-
lished to be upset by any executive Off
GERS of the Territory Of Hawaii or any
political ring they may form.
