WEBSTER AND EXECUTIVE pow
Err.

Andrew Jackson when President of
the United States sought to make the
executive branch of the government
supreme and to coerce Congress into
doing the bidding of the executive, but
like all others who have tried it, Jack
son. strong as he was, ANONYMOUSLY
failed Jackson became involved in a
fierce struggle with the Senate in
which he came out second best and
the feeling of bitterness between the
Pres. ient ana Senators of his own
party was even more bitter than that
which existed between President
Cleveland and members of his party in
lSS7-S. The Wings were equally as
bitter in their resentment against
Jackson's attempted encsoachment
upon the rights of Congress and ne
was termed King Jackson BY almost
every Wing paper. Daniel Webster
in a speech in the Senate in 1887 par
ticularly attacked Jackson's attitude
scoring him in the most vigorous way
saying, among other things:
Through all the history OF the con-
test for liberty. executive power has
been regarded as lion which must

WEATHER YESTERDAY.
GOVERNOR DOLE The MAN.

II now transpires. as shown by in
teryiews with three members OF the
Assembly published on another page,
and by the statement given by Secre-
tary Cooper 10 the Star. yesterday,
that Governor Dole is responsible for
the Secretary trying TO foist himself
upon the floor OF the House and de-
manding a place there as a right. Sec
Rotary Cooper said that the Governor
authorized the placing Of the desk for
the Secretary and Mr.. Cooper further
said to Representatives Prendergast
and Beckley that the Governor had
instructed him to take the seat on
the floor Of the House. II It's be true,
and we have no reason to doubt 1t,
then Governor Dole is far more blame
able than Secretary Cooper. This
shows that Governor Dole has no con-
ception OF American laws and Ameri-
can government II shows that the
exercise Of autocratic power by him
for seven years so warped the mans
mind that he cannot realize that the
executive branch Of the Territorial
government has no control over the
legislative branch 1t shows that he
had grown so accustomed to having
members Of the administration upon
the floor OF the legislature under the
oligarchy that ne believed that system
could be persisted in now that Hawaii
is a Territory. II shows that Gov
ernor Dole's idea was to so entrench
the executive branch of the govern
ment in the legislature as to make it
possible for il to nullify legislative
work whenever it desired TO do so.
Were the Governor of one of the
States Of the Union to undertake such
a thing rs Governor Dole undertook
here he would be promptly impeach-
ed by the legislature
Governor Dole evidently continues
to believe that he is the State That
ali. even the legislature, must reyolye
around him. That he holds the legis-
latiye department OF the government
in contempt is shown by his persist
ence in maintaining an executive
council contrary TO law Not only
has this illegal body been continued
by the Governor in defiance of law.
but It has asserted to itself judicial
and legislative powers which il did
not and cannot possess. Only few
DAYS ago The Republican called atten-
ton 20 an act OF this Executive Coun-
cii' in setting aside a Law of the Ter
ritory TO grant a request of the Ter
ritorial Treasurer. The legislature
now has further duty 10 perform II
the statements OF Secretary cooper
as made TO members OF the legisla-
lature be true. Il becomes the duty
of the Legislature 10 recite the facts
of the Governors interference with
the legislative power Of the Territory
and the passage OF concurrent reso-
luton setting forth these facts and
asking the President TO remove the
man guilty of trying 20 override the
legislature through the executive de-
partment Of the Territorial Govern
ment.

You can hardly fail in your legis-
lative procedure to make important
precedents..' said Governor Dole in his
message to the First Territorial Leg
islature. Indeed the legislature made
8 start yesterday in making important
preeedents. 1t made the very impor-
tant precedent that the legislative
branch of the government fully I'M
derstands that it is Independent Of the
executive and that an attempt of the
executive branch of the government
TO infringe upon the rights of the leg
islative will never again be tolerated
in Hawaii.

The stand taken by Collector Of

British schooners off Waimea, which
have violated the Treasury reguia-
tons, is one to be commended. Wheth-
er or not the vessels are engaged in

time being, matter OF secondary i'm
portance. The masters must have
known that they were breaking the
laws, and for so doing. should be
made to feel the full strength of the
arm of the law. The three vessels
landed without making an entry. or
being inspected by the quarantine or
the customs house, officers. 1t is
hardly possible that the vessels carry
special permits from the Secretary Of
the Treasury, anu Collector Stackable
has not been notified of this special
privilege. Under the laws of this
country. the vessels are liable to fine
of $1,000 for each onense. besides con-
dscation.

Whitney and. Lehners, inspectors OF

In this letter McCandless declares
that as the Eleu is the property of the

Advertiser.
There are several very pretty gems
in this setting. The first is as to the
doubt Of the ownership Ga the Eleu.
The national government never had
any doubt. rhe joint resolution of
annexation was too plain to leave
room for question. But the Dole
cabal, in the face of plain law, assert
cd ou-narcbfp Of ax-arr,bi1o - Iro,xo;;
so the Attorney General of the United
States in Opinions of the Attorney
General. XXI, 627. settled this claim
by declaring that all property, real
and personal. formerly belonging 10
the Republic of Hawaii. is the prop
erty OF the United States.
The Organic Act did not reinvest
the Territory of Hawaii with the title
to public lands or public property Of
any kind. The Assistant Attorney
General of the Interior Department
decided that the fee OF the public
lands is in the United States. The
Organic Act simply gave the Territory
the possession and use of the public
property, the same to be cared for and
kept in repair at the expense of the
Territory.
The person who asserts that there
was any legal doubt as to the owner
ship of the public property is either
ignorant of the law, or is a knave-
more likely the former.
The local government is a satyr,
blowing hot and cold as suits its cap
rices or spites. When Collector Stack
able asked for the temporary use of
the Eleu for the purpose OF seizing
some offending foreign vessels on an
adjacent island he was CURLY denied
on the ground that the Eleu was own
ed by the Territory and that it was
needed for tugboat business. But
when an official inspection is sought
the tug is suddenly acknowledged to
be the property of the United States
by the same official who in a written
application to register the Eleu as
serted ownership in the Territory.
Meanwhile Uncle Sans property

Perhaps il Mr.. Stackable would

Sleeping Car Ethics.

code of sleeping-car ethics which has
its fine distinctions. The Interna-

enters the Pullman as If it were room
in a club with which he is familiar,
but which he has not visited for some
time. He slows away his belongings,
according to his habit, puts on his
travelling cap and pair of light shoes
or slippers and overgaiters, gets out
his newspapers and book, and, not for
getting his smoking outfit, is ready to
be comfortable. Be it remembered that
if slippers be donned they must al
ways be accompanied by overgaiters

Traat Oats for Smut.

A communication from the Illinois
Experiment Station says that the av-
erage per cent of smut in Illinois oat
fields as determined by several care
full counts in over sixty counties Of
the state last year, was IA per cent.
Illinois produces the largest amount
OF oats of any state in the union or
about 164 600, 900 bushels for 1900. Max
ing liberal allowances for variation
In estimates of yield and per cent of
smut the loss to the farmers Of our
state from smut was not far from
Sc, 000, 900 or about $45 for every forty
acre oat field. This loss can be en-
tirely prevented at very slight ex-
pense by the hot water or formalin
treatment of the seed.
Hot Water Treatment.-The appar-
atus needed for this treatment consists
of an ordinary scalding kettle or any
arrangement for heating water, bar
rel. several gunny sacks and an ac-
curate thermometer.
The kettle should be partly filed
with 80 to 60 gallons of water and
heated until the temperature of the
water reaches 1877 degrees F. The
gunny sacks should be about half illed
with one bushel of seed oats after they
have been famed and cleaned. Dip
the sack of oats into the hot water.
taking care to keep the sack compleZe-
ly under water and stirring 1t gently
to keep the water circulating through
every part of the sack. Treat for live
minutes at from between 1872 and LET
degrees +. After treating dip imme-
diately into the barrel filed with cold
water This will cool the oats off
J quickly and prevent over heating in
/ the center of the sack.
About two pecks by measure Of the
wet oats should be added to the
amount desired to be sowed per acre,
to make up for the swollen seed. The
wet oats cannot be dried and should
be sown Immediately after treating, by
hand or with force seed drill. The
treating process quickens termination
and makes more vigorous plant, thus
increasing the yield independent of the
destruction of the smut. It is advis-
able to treat part OF the seed this
year, sow 1t apart from the general
crop, thresh separately and save this
seed for the general seeding the fol-
lowing year. The treatment need not
be repeated oftener than once in three
years at most.

Torquay simu ates Nice aud Monte
Carlo, bat Il Not Wicked.
England is too small to have many
climates, and our nearest approach to
Florida is TorQuay, writes a London
correspondent in the Philadelphia
Public Ledger. Situated at the head Cf
the historical indentation known as
Tor bay, Torquay is, doubtless, the
pleasantest OF the southern cities of
England. Its gardens and sidewa IS
are laid out in imitation of the French
Riviera. Torquay, however, differs
from Nice or Monte Carlo, because 1t
is q highly religious place. There is
no public gambling and only at the
clubs is there n rubber of bridge or
a little picquet. Torquay is the para
disc of the respectable English servant
who has saved little money and who
sets up lodging house Of the superior
kind. A high average of cooking with
a low average of public spirit appear
to- be the characteristics of Torquay.
1t is as delightful for an intellectual
rest as a celebrated Boston girl once
said of New York. There is little OF
interest be:ond the Kent cavern.
which is two or three miles out of the
town, the scene of the labors of the
late Mr.. Penge,ly. In the reign Of
James /. and Charles III. a number of
citizens entered this cave and cut
their names on the stalagmite forma-
ton. There are two men named Mar
tin and Hedger, respectively, who cut
their names in 1861 and 1866, the year
Of the great plague. The water h
been dripping on these inscriptions
ever since, and Mr.. Pengelly's calcula-
lions enable him to determine the an
tiquity of the remains of the cave men,
whose cooking arrangements, cinders
and discarded bones were found under
seven fet of stalagmite formation.
