The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1901-10-12

De- based ON q grand jury indictment
tu california men uro hanged ln San
Quentin by the warden on tho author.
Itv of death warrants who were newer
Indicted by 90 grand Jury Theodore
DufIaut whose lawyers carried bis de-
fnnsg through every state court and TO
the supreme Court of the United
states. was never Indicted by a grand
jury san Quentin aud Folsom are fun
of felous against whom mo- grand jury
ever brought am indictment
Strange as it may seem the Califor-
mia procedure for bringing felons to
trial As very similar To- the procedure
prescribed by the Hawaiian statute
against which so much vitupeation has
been hurled as being unAmerican. The
usual procedure i'm California is by in
dfttment by the District Attorney for
the county In which the crime is alleged
to have been committed, as the proce-
dure was here by indictment by the
Attorney General
1t is only in federal cases among
which are those arising in Hawaii by
reason of its being a territory and not
a state, that the federal constitution
guarantees the right of Indictment or
presentment by grand jury. The muir
derers, rapists and burglars who have
been set free in the recent judicial Jail
deliveries were convicted under a form
Of procedure that SO far as Indictment
was concerned would have been legal in
California or in Hawaii if she were a
state instead of a territory of the
union, and Of which the most that can
be said against it is that technically 1t
was insufficient in a territory.
Under these circumstances all that
has been said in derogation of the sys-
TEN either from the bench r elsewhere
has been said of a system which is con-
sidered American enough for Califor-
mia.
