ONE AND tNpivlsislE.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
An unfortunate remark of Solicitor
General Richards, made in the course
of his argument in the Porto Rico
cases. has created quile a fiutter
among our Hawaiian feliow-citizens-
The statement which is creating the
sensation is that IF IL were desirable
to do so Congress could part with Ha-
gaii as II coulc WITH the Philippines
because neither is part Of the
Union" Our Hawaiian people will in
due time learn not to pay much at
tention 10 the words of a lawyer in ar
guing case even II for the time beng
be does happen to represent the Unit
ed States, but an the same il is exceed
ingly unfortunate that anything of the
kind should be said by any one official
iy connected with the Government
In this particular case il is said to
have awakened the hopes of the ex-
Queen and ner friends and to have
started into growth a whole hotbed of
intrigues ana secret caucuses looking
10 the restoration of Queen Liliuoka-
lani ar the head of an Independent ma
tive government. Our object in deal
ing with these new peoples. and the
purpose OF the language of our officials
in regard to them should be to inspire
them with pride in their participation
in American citizenship-not to per-
suade them that we repuuIate them as
citizens. There can be no patriotic
love for country which disowns US.
There is likely to be hatred for a for
eign country which controls us. These
native Hawaiians lack most things
which make people strong and sue
cessful, but they do not lack love of
country, as is well shown in their uu-
wavering loyalty to the woman who
personifies that country, and in their
pathetic exhibition of sorrow on the
day when their flag went down for
ever 1t should be our constant
thought to transfer this affection to
the new country of which these people
have become a part, and the new flag
which is the symbol of its greatness.
Neither will any American concede
that this country can be divided by
virtue of any authority conferred by
or outside the Constitution. That
property" as such, may be disposed
OF by Congress is self-evident, for the
Constitution provides for it. If per-
sonal property it may be sold and re-
moved from our jurisdiction; if land,
its title may be transferred to indi-
viduals; but nowhere, in or out of
the Constitution. is there to be found
the slightest intimation from which
there can be derived the doctrine that
Congress may divorce this Nation
from the sovereignty of one foot Of
Land over which its flag has for one
moment fioated in token of that SOW
ereignty. This Nation is and shall
continue to be one and indivisible-
and Hawaii is part of it.

WEATHER YESTERDAY.
THE EXECUTIVE COUNCIL"

one OF the things that the legisla
ture should stop is the illegal acts III
the so-called Executive Council. In
the report OF the meeting of the
Council as pubnsneu in the Morning
Organ last Friday appeared the follow
ing:
Treasurer Lansing presented the
application of Mr.. Peck of Hilo for
permission to incorporate private
bank in the Rainy City. The bank
was started after the First National
Bank OF Hawaii opened up branch
there. Mr.. Lansing stated that at pres
ent he was very busy and did not have
the time personally 10 look into the
affairs of the present institution as re-
auired by law. and asked that he be
authorized TO employ person for that
purpose. The Council approved OF the
recommendation.
Sec. 2O56 of the Civil Code of the
Territory relating to banking says;
THE Treasurer shall examine into the
condition of the corporation formed
under THIS act anu IL IL satiS
factorily appear to said Treasurer that
such corporation is entitled to COM
mence the business of banking he shall
deliver TO such corporation certiti-
cate" The Treasurer is not empower
ed by law TO delegate this investiga-
tion TO any one else but is required TO
make il himself Furthermore it is
none Of the business of the other mem
bers OF the Territorial government rs
TO whether the conditions of The law
are complied with by the corporation
or not as the law explicitly places the
responsibility upon the treasurer. II
the Treasurer is too busy with private
affairs to attend TO the duties OF his
Office then he ought not to continue
to draw Six Thousand Dollars per year
from the Territorial Funds for per-
forming such duties.
The Executive Council had no
more authority to authorize the Terri
torial Treasurer to employ some per
son TO look into the anairs of the new
banking corporation at iilo than have
half a dozen newsboys on the streets.
This is one of the abuses of the cen
tralized system of government Illegal
use of power has been employed so
much under the centralized system
r. =
alize that the day for such Illegal ac-
lions have passed. The legislature
could perform no better act than 70
investigate all the acts and doings of
this so-called Executive Council"
which has no standing in law in the
Territory. 1t is time now to get down
to realities and quit playing at opera
bouffe government.

THE CHRONICLES ERROR.

In another column will be found an
editorial from the San Francisco Chro-
nicie In which the paper gives itself
good deal OF concern about a remark
by Solicitor General Richards in his
argument in the Porto Rican case in
which he said Congress could part
with Hawaii as it could with the Phil
ippines because neither is part of the
Union" rhe Chronicle labors under
misapprehension when il says this
remark has created a flutter among
our Hawaiian fellow-citizens." II has
done nothing of the sort for the reason
that the people OF Hawaii do not agree
with Solicitor General Richards and
other spokesman OF the administration
that the constitution does not follow
the flag. Hawaii is Just as much part
OF the Union as California and no
people know this fact better than the
residents OF .-ls Territory.
Solicitor General Richards remark
has not awakened the hopes OF the
ex-Queen and her friends nor has there
been any hotbed of intrigues nere look
Ing TO restoration of Lisiuokalani to
the throne. The Chronicle must have
been looking through a glass darkly
when this article was written which
comes with ill-grace from a paper
usually so wen posted as the Chroni-
Gle. The native Hawa.lans are just
as loyal Americans today as can se
found in the oldest states OF the Union
and they are not worried about express
sions made by lawyers OF Solicitor
General Richards stamp in an argu.
ment before court. Nor are they in
triguing for return to the throne by
their deposed queen. They are how
ever planning for the establishment Of
county and municipal government on
the American plan in this Territory

faculty II was unanimously decided to send
the following letter to the Committee on
Arrangements for the Inauguration Day
programme:
'"The faculty OF Princeton University ac-
knowledge with thanks the invitation to
send body OF students TO represent this
university in the Inauguration parade and
ball. at Washington. on March 4, 1S0f- We
feel Obliged 20 decline the invitation. not on
any political grounds or from lack of pa
triotism but solely because, in our opinion.
1t lies outside the functions OF the university
to send its students away at very busy
time OF the year to participate In public
parades and social festivities
THE amount Of time in each year which
students actually spend in college Is al

telligent patriotism will be best nourished
and strengthened by attention TO their pres
ent duties and by mastering the studies
which will enable them to understand the
principles on which our institutions are
founded"
