JUDGE HUMPHREYS.

When Judge Humphreys went
to Washington to answer the
charges made against him by the
B,r Association, The INDEPENDENT
did little prophscying. We said,
that the Judge would be absolutely
.vindicated iu Washington aud re-
turn to his seat on the Benoh. And
our first prophecy came true. We
based our opinion upon the fact,
that the Washington government is
sick and tired of the name Hawaii,
and that it meant that, when the
Territory was established, Hawaii
should be left to fight out its own
salvation and not, like school
child run to "Ma," every time.
Abram or Georgie were naughty or
>disagreeable. 1t was childish
method to adopt, and we think the
Bar Association met a we'll deserved
snub.

phreys. The man raw that his
safety was not in coutradlcting
complaints or defending himself
against trivial accusations, and, e,
acting upon those lines, he basad
his "defense" on the time honorei
method Of the man with bad
cause, by abusing the other side.
In the art of disseminating and tell
ing half.lie Judge Humphreys is a
past master. He drew tears from
the eyes of attorney-general Knox
and from the readers OF a subsidized
press. in his graphic description of
his heroic attempt of Americanizing
Hawaii by locking Hartwell and
other non-Americans up for con-
tempt. His noble mission in life. he
claimed, was to uphold thA dignity
of the American courts, and man
without coat on was an object of
horror to this essentially dignifed
Judge. Forgotten were the days
when attorney A. S. Humphreys ap'
preached a Judge in saloon and
arranged for continuance of case
with stake sonsthing, jsdge -
Now it is little less thsn high
treason for an attorney to look a.
the poor, Ii tie, ioa ,ted devil, except
he approaches with proper mani
festatious Oh humbleness of the
Uriah Heap style. But he is kind

himself, wheu be played to the gal

accusations, that he was acting an
unmanly part and would have utter
" collapsed, il Brought face to face
with the men, whose characters he
cowasdly blackened with his soft,
lying tongue. He gathered some
testimonials from half dozen
preachers aud professional reform

on the Mainland who responded
"wbat a true apostle Abram must

The Republican publishes this
morning an alleged interview with
Governor Dole, who is reported as
saying, that be will grant the license
regarding the Kohala Mountains
Water Supply, applied Tor by the
Jones syndicate. If Mr.. Dole is
correctly quoted, he must have sui-
fared from another lapse OF memory.
The last meetiog, dealing with the
matter, was adjourned till Monday
next, to give chance to the resi-
dents Of Kohala to be heard. Mr.
Dole has not heard from Kohela yet,
and still, it is claimed, that te has
stated that there is no objection to
the scheme on behalf OF the plant-
ers. IT the license ia granted in its
present SHAPE, Mr.. Doe will have
committed such glsring outrage,
that his action should bs submitted
for invastigs alton to the Grand Jury.
1t is claimed that no harm can come
from granting the license, because
operations must begin within GER
tain time limit. As matter of fact
does not the license reads, that
operations shall begin within GER
tain time limit after the plans aud
modus operandi have been submit
ted to and approved by the govern
lneul2 And is it not a fact, that
there is no time limit as TO yhen
such plans, etc, shall be submitted
We think it reasonable aud proper,
that the applicants for the license,
who claim to have all kinds OF
money behind them should put up
S25O,000 in bonds as a guarantee OF
their good faith, Even II the license

Humphreys will return and act
very careful and. peaceable on the
Bench. He will make no refer
ence TO the incident, which is
closed, and be will behave him
self-for a while. Should he
attempt to enter the political
arens again, he will receive big
surprise and his organ will fail to
understand, why the judge is dead

judgs and his paper remember the
dsfeat of the Dispensary Act, the
confirmation Of appointments, they
opposed, aud that not single meas
ure was carried by them excep. the

merits or demerits. Let us hope
that Judge HumphreyP, while in

has gained some much needed mem

1t will be interesting to watch tie
career Of the new President. Roose
velt is young man and a typical
young American. He is character
istic for his independent, fearless
spirit and there are evidently no
strings attached to him. He has
much to learn during the three and
one-hali years remaining at his pres
ent term and there are no reasons to
anticipate that he will not be a
clever scholar in the great political
school he has eDtered.

Matters got worse and worse till the

The sultry heat Of the day was al.

tarnished the braZen sen. but over tie

low shore to westward hung sullen
white steam which shut out the cou.-

thought that the weather was too hot
Tor any exertion that could possibly be
avoided, but discord, like the devil, can
live in any cline, and on this broiling
day the sound ones OF the crew made
their way aft in body.
A little Irishman whom Alec had
taken in pity from the streets of Rris-
tol, where he was starving, was their
spokesman, and his election to that
post was not undeserved, as he had by
bis vaporings stirred up the whole

The brown faced crowd surged
against the break of the poop on which
there were only us five officers and

swaying tiller.

Nets of mangrove roots formed an
impenetrable thickct on either bank,

where the slug flowing water ended
and the liquid mud of the shore began.
Loathsome reptiles-which some of us
took to be dragons, till the knowing
