Commercial League Appoint
Committees. Main Body
Meets Tonight.

The Board of Directors of the
Citizens League held another in
teresting meeting last night. The
Board is now getting down to
active work, and from now on it
is the purpose of this organiza-
ton to keep things a moving.
Besides the appointing of mum
bero important com mites, other
matters were discussed that will
greatly facilitate business, rs-
specially so when you take into
consideration that such things
will rebound to the welfare of
Jennings.
Better switch track facilities
was discussed at last nights
meeting. This is eminently nee
essary and of greet need. Dur.
ing the rice season complaint is
often heard of the necessity OF
having more switch room.
Tbs car shop of which we have
spoken of in previous issues of
this paper, was referred to the
committee on industries and
manufactures. The location of
this establishment is a fact be-
yond doubt. There are some
preliminaries to arrange yet.
The telephone service, looking
to an expansion of same, so as to
cover a larger range of territory,
was referred to a special commit
tee consisting of Harry Stern, S.

much in doing something that
will work a great deal of accom-
modation to the public.

KITCHEN CABINET.

1t is stated in the reports of the
Executive Council that that body
has decided all land OH the Volcano
road shall be reserved for residence
lots rather than farms. What a
lovely boulevard it will be when
lined on either side with brown
stone mansions. The policy should
be pushed by the Kitchen Cabinet
while the Volcano road is smooth.
A rain at any time might make it
an undesirable highway on which
to build a city home.
The same report has it that a
settlement association application
for Puma lands was turned down on
account of the proximity of the
tract to Hilo and the probability
that it might be required for pub
lie purposes.
Thus doth the Kitchen Cabinet
legislate.

nels. BY the history Of our Act of
Annexation we easily reach the un-
questionable conclusions that the
Constitution of the United States
has been here every moment OF
time since Aug. IL, 1898.
No lapse of time will change it.
No jugglery of words shall obscure
or weaken its force if loyal lips and
works and words can give it eter-
nal significance. No spurious gos-
pei of sentimentalism predicated
upon purely speculative reasoning
shall sweep from us the value of
one hundred years of beneficial
constitutional experience, or, heed
lessly destroy the ancient wise and
time honored constitutional safe
guard to personal liberty, viz:
That of a presentment by a Grand
Jury, and a trial by a jury of
"twelve good men and true"
No transition period ever existed
in this Territory. See House Doc

cases heard in the United States

To decide otherwise would be
clearly sophistical. This Court

Laws of 1897. In this view of the
law this Court is sustained by the

Decision OF Judge Little on Question
OF Constitution and Flag.

The Constitution and the Flag
have had their innings in Judge
Titles Court.
Carl Smith, of the firm of Smith
& Parsons, for the defendant All
Quong, indicted by the Grand Jury
on the charge Of rape, presented a
Plea in Bar Wednesday to the indict-
ment OH the ground that his client
was being twice put in jeopardy for
the same offense. All Quong was in
dicted by a Circuit Judge of this
Circuit, tried and convicted and
given a life sentence at the regular
January term, 1899, upon a charge
OF rape, or a female child under
the age of ten years. He was con-
fined in Jail on the island of Oahu,
from which he was released by the
Hob. Geo. ID. Gear. second Judge
OF the First Circuit. Coming home
the defendant was regularly indicted
by the Grand Jury, January4, inst.
Argument on the Plea in Bar
was exhaustive and able, Carl
Smith arguing for defendant, John
w. Cathcart for the prosecution.
The decision of Judge Little over
ruled the pleading of the defendant
holding the prisoner for trial upon
the Grand Jury indictment. The
decision holds that the provisions
of the Constitution Of the United
States took effect in these Islands,
August IL, 1898, pursuant to the
Newlands Resolution ofannexation.
After stating the case and setting
forth the terms of the Newlands
Resolution, the decision of Judge
Little says:
Pursuant to the provisions Of the
above Resolution, the President
permitted the civil officers Of Ha-
waii to execute their tenure Of Office
under the laws of Hawaii, mot in
consistent with the Constitution
and laws of the United States or Of
this Act" until Congress shall
provide for the Government Of
such islands"
Subsequently and further in pur-
suance thereof, the transfer of the
sovereignty was consummated in
due form August IL, A. ID. 1898.
Since that time we have been a
Territory of the United States of
America. There was such All alb
solute completeness in all the essen
tials to and surrounding the trans
fer of the Hawaiian sovereignty to
the United States of America; that
had the enlightened friends OF this
Territory, who were charged with
the execution, Interpretation and
enforcement OF our laws, mot incon-
