Case of Consular Agent Baix.

WASHINGTON, March IS - The State
Department. through Minister Loomis. re-
Gently lodged a most vigorous protest 10
the Venezuelan government against further
interference with Mr. Baiz the United
States consular agent at Barcelona, Ven-
ezuela. 1t knows nothing of the last re-
ported infringement of his liberty, but il
is presumed the affair is connected di-
rectly with the troubles which led TO the
first protest. Ignatio NJ. Baiz is not a citi-
zen of the United States, fact that may
add TO the difficulty which our government
will experience in protecting him. as 1t is
determined TO do. He was born I'm ST.
Thomas and Is Danish citizen, so far as
is known here, but, having exequatu-
issued by the Venezuelan government rec
ognizing him United States consular
agent, the State Department has decided
that he is entitled to the protection OF the
United States government. 1t appears that
he Is engaged in business and became In

itary by resisting an attempt 10 collect a

must cease, but so far no results have ap-

MORE TROUBLE IN HUNGARY.


BUDA-PESTH, March 1S-Serious dis
turbances have occurred here between the
university officials and the students in corr
sequence of orders issued by the minister
of instruction for the removal of all crosses
from the lecture rooms of the university
In spite of this prohibition, when the rooms
were opened this morning. the professors
discovered that the students had gained
entrance and nailed crosses TO the walls.
The officials commenced to remove the re-
ligious emblems, bat were hustled and in
suited by the students. Some of the latter,
however, supported the officials. and vio-
lent scenes ensued and the lectures were
suspended. The matter will be discussed
in Parliament.
The university senate has decided TO sus-
pend lectures for two days in consequence
of the conflict over the removal of crosses,
and the students have been warned that a
repetition of the disorders will lead 10 the
closing of the university.

THE HAWAIIAN BAND.

The Legislature may well think twice
before it votes to dissolve band
which dates back to the Kamehamehas
and which, ever since. has been ia
yorite institution with monarchs and
people alike For about thirty years
little short of n generation--the band
mas played at royal and national func-
tons has welcomed the coming and
sped the parting guest has enlivened
the public parks and has given tourists
and our own people unbounded pleas
ure. To obliterate it now would be to
remove one more landmark of the past
and to cut off about the only means
of public entertainment which the Ha-
waiian metropolis can regularly count
upon,
We admit that the plea against the
band Is a half-plausible one; that is to
to say that the other Islands should
not be compelled to pay any part of the
expense incurred in giving entertain
ments of which Honolulu is the scene
1t might be reasoned out that Honolulu
has to bear the lions share of the eX-
pense and that "A big proportion of it's
taxes goes for the benefit of outlying
communities. But "" will pass that ana
merely suggest that the Legislature
Amight save the band without sacrific-
ing its point, by providing that tn" or
ganization shall take inter-lsland tours.
In this way Hilo would be moved by
concord of sweet sounds. Spreckclsvill"
and Waikiki and all the rest ut the
Uitlander settlements would be able to
sigh under the pleasing of the lutte or
shout under the inspiration of buEle
and drum and Honolulu would not be
wholly left to the tender mercies of the
Salvation Army band.
Don't let the Kappelmeister's must
clans dispense, gentlemen of the Legis-
Iature X eep the band. Go and hear
it; ask native Hawaiians what they
think of it. consider it's value as a tour
list attraction and stay the reforming
hand.

LEGISLATIVE ENCOURAGEMENT.

The Legislature. though sensitive to
a fault about it's own freedom from EN-
ecutive Interference, seems determined
to NEEDLE. on it's own side. with ENecu
tive concerns. First We had rath""
peremptory demand from the Senat" .or
the nominations which the Governor is
alone empowered to make, and now the
House undertakes to tell him what to
do in regard to Land Commissioners
Brown who is at Washington on public
business We can well imagine what
the Senate would say IT, after having
received the Executive nominations, II
should get a message from the Govern
or demanding or even suggesting
prompt action upon them; and what the
House would say If the Executive
should attempt to regulate the move
ments of any one of Its own appointees.
There would be instant and noisy re
sentiment. That the Governor takes
Legislative affronts cOolly does not
qualify his right, if h. chooses to eXer-
else it, to invite the Senate and House.
in peremptory phrase, TO mind their
own business.
So far as tn" request of the Senat" Is
concerned We hope that the Governor
will be very deliberate indeed about
sending IN names Tor alleged COnHIlld-
ton. The eagerness of the Home Rul-
ers to get hold of the names now shows
that they have a game TO play which
BODIES no good to Mr.. Dole and his
friends In this and other matters the
Home Rulers seem 20 be guided by the
advice of the notorious Humphreys,
who has sold himself for the season or
until something more can he made by
betrayal of his new friends, to the anti
Republican party. There is one safe
rule in politics and that is, where any
other course is open to do nothing the
enemy wants you to do. 1t is a rule
that applies to Governors as well as
laymen. So long as the public interests
do not demand the Hawaiian Guberna-
torial nominatiOns--and they viii not do
so for some time yet-we hope Mr.. Dole
will withhold them. They are SAT"
enough as they are, they might in the
hands of a hostile Senate. become the
instruments of the worst kind of poll
tics.
