DOESN'T AFFECT HAWAII.

The impression is out that Che Su-
preme Court, in declaring, as 1t is sup
posed to have done, that the constitu-
ton does not follow the flag. has put
Hawaii into the category of mere pos
sessions: and that, as a result. our
sugar may have to pay duty on the
mainland
This radical idea is based upon the
following clauses of the decision:
The clause "all duties imposts and
excuses shall be uniform throughout the
United States" the court holds, was
placed in the Constitution as a result of
the jealousies of the States which united
in forming the Nation. 1t was intended
to prevent any State or combination of
States securing advantage over another
or others; to prevent the ports of one
State gaining preference over those of
another in the Importation of goods.
This rule of uniformity was made pri-
marly for the States united, the court
holds not for Territories then possessed
or afterward acquired. and the Consti-
tutional requirement is satisfied as long
as all duties on imports are uniformly
imposed at all the ports throughout the
United States. The advantage of this
uniformity may be extended to Terri
tories and possessions not States and
not members of the American Union,
but that Is for Congress to determine
under the authority of the Constitution.
1t appears that Congress has already
determined the case of Hawaii. as fol-
lows:
Section (Organic AcD. That the Con-
stitution and except as herein otherwise
provided. all the laws of the United
States which are not locally inappllcable
shall have the same force and effect
within the said Territory as elsewhere in
the United States.
AS the matters herein otherwise
provided" and the laws which are 10
cally inapplicable," do not affect the
rights of Hawaii as a Territory OF the
United States, these islands may be re-
garded as an indlssoluble part Of the
Union.

MIGRANTS FROM
FOREIGN SHIPS

! Masters of foreign ships coming to
this port are largely responsible for the
spread of the sailor-vagrant evil here.
Both the captains of vessels of foreign
register. as well as the police are
aware of this fact, the latter painfully
so. Desertions of sailors from foreign
ships, the majority of which have made
long voyages before reaching the Ha-
waiian Islands, are more frequent than
from domestic vessels.
Waterfront Police officer Flint has
reported to the high sheriff that the de-
sertons from such vessels are on the
increase, and as there are more ves-
sells in the harbor at present than for
some time in the past. the deserters
are throwing themselves open to the
charge of being Migrants. and sooner
or later viii come in contact with the
police.
The captain of the British ship Ar
gus has reported to officer Flint that
several of his crew have deserted, and
he expects a wholesale desertion in a
day or two He was wondering wheth-
er or not he should get out warrants
to have them arrested, but yesterday
had practically decided that this would
be a useless procedure. Other captains
have taken the same view of the mat
ter, and, as a result, dozens of sailors
are in the city, rapidly evolving into
that stage where the police term them
Migrants.
1t Is understood that one of the reas-
ons why foreign ship captains do not
follow their men up with warrants, Is
that there Is money due the men. In
deserving the ship they forfeit their
claim to wages, and the masters are so
much the better off from a monetary
standpoint. 1t costs them considerable
money, however to procure new crews,
but the expense is largely borne by
the new men shipped.
Under the laws OF the Republic OF
Hawaii, a ships captain had to pro-
cure warrant for every DESERVING
sailor and the man had to be appre-
hended, II there was any way of seiz-
ing, imprisoning and returning him to
the vessel from which he had deserted.
Unless a foreign consul In Honolulu
desires to have a sailor arrested, or the
captain feels that he has lost val
liable man, no effort is made by the
police to capture him. When these
men desert their ships, leaving their
wages, or part OF them behind, they
are generally without much ready cash
I'm their pockets, and It Is only a mat
ter OF few days when they are ION

THE EXECUTIVE
COUNCIL MEETS

AT the Executive Council held yester-

ury to be running behind at the rate OF
$4,000 per month. and demonstrates
that 1t viii not be long before the vaults

Treasury balance is now Sl6 sol. -
against sl7S.3l4a month ago. Receipts
for the month of May are given as Sii7.-
0l775. The Treasurer estimates the re-
ceipts between now and November III
$4,000 and he says that the expendi-
lures will necessarily be in the neighbor-
hood of 100000 a month. This shows
conclusively that in few months the
Treasury will be completely depleted.
The Council held n discussion In re-

THE BOOK CONTRACT.

| A. r. Gums proposal to bind the pu
! pills of the public schools of Hawaii tc
| the publications of the American Book
Company, otherwise known as the
Book Trust, is still pending with the
Commissioners of Public instruction
1t was taken up early in the school
year, and after the evils of the propos
ed contract were fully exposed in the
Advertiser, committee of leading
teachers was appointed to make rec
concentrations of textbooks deemed
most suitable for the needs of present
day instruction.
Since that committee was appointed
it has not held a meeting to consider
the proposal of other book concerns,
nor has 1t been possible, 1t is under
stood, to have meeting called by the
chairman of the committee, who Is the
inspec tor general OF schools Members
OF the committee have often asked that
the chairman call a meeting, but for
one reason and another the call has
been deferred, and today the depart
ment is still clinging to the old con-
tract with the American Book Com
pany whose contract in reality, how
ever, expired last February.
The old contract was of a nature that
only publications Of the trust We're in
troduced in the schools. The trust has
had a monopoly, and the schools are
dependent upon II entirely for their
text books. According to the contract
none but the trust publications could
be introduced here, and as a result the
schools of Hawaii, as has been pointed
out in the Advertiser. are using text
books which are mainly unfit for mod
ern class work, and which are out of
date
Mr., Gum, the agent of the trust for
the Pacific Coast, was here last year
with a proposal to renew the contract.
The character of that contract was eX-
posed by the Advertiser but the adop-
tion of the new contract offered by the
trust was apparently defeated al
though the matter is still pending be-
fore the commissioners. Until action
Is taken by the committee and the COM
missioners the advantages OF tie pres
ent dilatory tactics remain with the
trust and the disadvantages with the
school children OF this Territory.
The committee of teachers was ap-
pointed to recommend new textbooks
for the schools Of the islands That
committee has never reported upon any
changes to be recommended, and this
1t is understood. Is not the fault of the
members OF the committee, for the
reasons stated.
II IL understood that most all OF the
teachers on the committee are In favor
OF having the best and newest text
books for the school children. which
they cannot get from the American
Book Company.

Errigation Etsn,s.


 The transition from barren alkali wastes to scenes of rich veg-tation and luxuriant grow tb, tie result of irrigation, must have i1nprcs sed the President and h:s party with not only the great productivity of irrigated Ia I'd, but with the significance of the word irrigation to the western country.
 In viewing the fertile valleys of the southwest, rich from tl,e fru;:s of the orchards and the crons from the fields, and dotted with prosperous homes and thriv- ing towns, where a few years ago barren plains starved the cactus and the sage brush, did MT. Mckinley realize that the reclamation of the arid West carries with it the creation of a great and populous empire with in OUT own territory? The wonderful irrigated belts of the 1 West are but an earnest show ing of the transformation 'ol this region, which would follow the inauguration of a policy ot national reclamation by whicL the food-waters now wasted would be saved for the use of the farmer.
 It is hoped that the President on his trip, has arrived at ar appreciation of the question which of all others Is most vita to the people of the arid region namely, water.
