mR. cooPER.s ANXIETY.

There is a whole lot about the du
ties Of a Secretary Of Territory that
Henry E Cooper. Secretary Of Hawaii
has to learn. II Mr.. Cooper were not
so pulled up with his own importance
he could easily ascertain from the
Secretaries OF some of the older Ter
ritories that the journals of the
houses are furnished to him after
they are printed and certified by the
presiding officer and clerk as being
true and complete copies of the jour
nails of the respective houses. TIE
House and Senate of Hawaii are com
petent to attend TO the printing al
their journals and TO have copies oil
the same in the hands of Secretars
Cooper for transmission to Washing
ton in ample time for him to comply
with the requirements of Sec 90 CT
the Organic Act.
In fact Mr.. Cooper gives himself too
much concern about the journals OF
the House. He should take it easy
and let the House walk the floor.
There is no need of Mr.. Cooper
walking the floor, really there
is not He does not need TO
bother his head about having some
one copy the journal for him or print
it after il is copied. The House is
attending to all that in due form and
in a reasonable time after the com
pletion of the session it will provide
him with duly authenticated copies OF
the journal which he can transmit TO
Washington.
Mnen the legislature met Mr.. Coop
er was going to keep the journal for
the House and Senate but now he
merely wants the House to furnish
him with the journal up TO date and
hereafter the journal of each days
session, duly certified. Why bless
your innocent heart, Mr.. Cooper, don I
you know that no legislative body on
earth permits its journal to go out OF
its own hands at any time. In your
innocence and purity do you take the
members OF the House likewise to be
so guileless as to hand over 70 You
the daily journal of their proceedings
Oh no, Mr.. Cooper, the House may
have use for its journal every day of
me session and besides it will want to
have it printed before it turns the
journal over to you. You know such
things as a change in punctuation or
letter or word in the manuscript
copy of the journal might make a
great difference in it. Not that the
House suspects that anyone would
make any alterations in its journal il
IL were turned over to the Secretary
of the Territory each day, but then
1t cannot be too careful you know.
Really, Mr.. Cooper, the House hates
to see you worry so about its journal
and to ease your mind The Repub-
licaR is in position to say that the
House will at the proper time present
you with printed copies of its journal
duly certified by the Speaker ana
Clerk. In the meantime don't worry
about the money to have the journal
sopied: it isn't worth while and be-
sides you will bring grey hairs into
your locks by the useless worrying.

THE STARS MAN OF STARS.

The Star devotes half a column of its
valuable editorial space to exposing
its ignorance regarding the Dill pass
ed by the Senate yesterday providing
for the exemption of certain personSi
property from attachment, execution
or forced sale. The Star says the dill
sxempts personal property to the
value of five thousand dollars and
goes on to say that a man must pos
sess property TO the value of five
thousand dollars before he can bor-
row any money. All of this is untrue
as the writer of the Stars editorial
could have ascertained if he had tax
en- the trouble TO read Senate Bill No
70. The bill specifies the personal
property that shall be exempt from
attachment. execution or forced sale,
but il does not fix any value upon the
same. 1t may amount in some in
stances, as in the case of a fineslibra-
~. 10 the value VI i've tuOuSauQ NOl-
.ars. but in very few instances will
any citizen ever have personal prop,
erty of the value of FIVE thousand dol
lars exempt from attachment. exc
cution or forced sale under the bill
Again there is nothing in the bill
TO prevent anyone from giving chat
tel mortgage or bill Of sale upon his
personal property for the securing OF
a loan should he desire TO do so. The
trouble with the Star is that instead
of residing the bill and thereby obtain
ing some knowledge of the subject it
was discussing. 1t set up man of
straw and then proceeded to fiay him

The Senate did good work in pass
ing Senator Kalauokalani's bin yes

Why did the Republican members
of the Senate oppose Senator Kalau
okalani's exemption bin fl they are in
favor of a decent exemption law, rs
they claim to be? Is it because the
protestations of friendship for the
poor man by the Republican sena-
tors is only intended for effect and
not to be taken seriously?

DEFENDER OF THE FAITH.
Redmond Declares the King Has No
Riuht to Use the Title,

LONDON, March 1S-In the House
of Commons today, William Redmond,
Irish Nationalist. gave notice that he
would take an early opportunity of
informing King Edward that he had
no earthly right to use the title of
defender of the faith. The argument
came up on Mr.. Redmonds question
as to whether the title would appear
on the new coins and, if so, what
particular faith was meant. The
chancellor of the exchequer, sir Mi
chael Hicks-Beach. replied that so
long as the Kings titles remained I'M
altered they would appear on the
coins. Then Mr.. Redmond protested
and was called to order.

Court term, at which the order was
made, is no longer in session.
In conclusion" REALTORS attorneys
say, I'VE desire again to call the
Courts attention to the statutes of
the Territory of Hawaii, relative to
the experimenting power of the SUI
preme Court. In all cases wherein
mandamus was issued to review an
order of an inferior court, where such
order was an outrageous and arbitra-

ceeded on this very experimenting
power which our statutes grant to the
Supreme Court Of this Territory

II Mr. Carter is so anxious to take

The Republican trusts the House
will promptly pass the Senate's con-
current resolution providing for a
joint session of the two houses to
elect the Senators who shall hold for
four years. Attend to this matter at
once, gentlemen.

If the legislature does nothing else
of note during this session but to sc
fix the terms of the hold-over senators
as to leave out Achi, Brown aud Car
ter, it will have accomplished some
good for the Territory.

dollar as the unit and the largest
silver coin; gold coin of $40 value,
silver coin Of the value of One-tcnth

value of One-hundredth of Il dollar. He
suggested three other coins for the
convenience OF making change-a sill

only to invent easy names for these
coins, which was done in due time.
This currency was not adopted with

Jefferson. both in and out of Congress.
Robert Morris, the first man in Ameri-
