this sprung the various trusts. as the
spendthrift trust, to which have given
some attention. In the older parts OF
the country if a Champagne Charley
sold his mine and began to paint the
town., no one took any notice of him,
but let him go his road.
Long service under such conditions
has perhaps given a bias of mind. Gov
ernor Dole was primarily the man of
the hour when his services were need
ed. and his strong personality and his
force kept the government together.
II can be understood readily that there
Is in the men who are descended from

stubborn devotion to their cause The
first corners were men from New Eng
and. men who as Ben Butler said.
came to the New World to worship
God as they thought right. and to make
every other man worship as they
thought right They were not given TO
brook opposition or to consider any
other viewpoint. Like Charles Sumner.
when a friend asked him to look at the
other side of a question, and he re-
sponded, But there is no other side.
the men with strong Puritan ancestry
and inheritance are of necessity men
of forceful habit of mind.
Take the differences with the legis-
lature Those would have resulted with
any man of strong will in the governor
ship. The executive was self-reliant
and brave and stood his ground all
through with an eye to the protection
OF the interests of the community as
he saw them. The result may be that
there will be elected this fall another
opposition legislature, and it will take
strong men to carry through the work
which must be done to insure the fu-
ture Of the Territory. But co not wish
to talk politics for that always reminds
me of Moneys History of Ireland.
Mooney was an Irishman who had hard
luck in San Francisco and so return
ed to Ireland. He was a character
himself. and after his return to his ma
tive land he wrote its history in char
acteristic style. For instance, he would
devote a chapter to each topic which
he thought worthy of discussion. One
chapter was headed Snakes and the
entire chapter was comprised in these
words: There are no snakes in Ire
land -"

troduced another bill. which provides
that the fifteen senators elected No
ber 9Th, 1900. shall hold for the term Of
four years. and that, at the election of
1904, of the fifteen senators to be elect
ed. the eight who receive the highest
number of votes cast shall hold for four
years and the remaining seven for two
years; and apportions them, as to dis
tricts, according to the provisions of
the Organic Act.
This first bill will meet with the OBJ
, lection that the legislature has already
apportioned the term of the senators
in the First and Second Districts, and
that nothing remains for Congress to
do. in Strengthening out the matter, but
to determine upon the apportionment
in the Third and Fourth Districts.
The Wilcox bill will be confronted
with the proposition that Congress hav-
ing. by Section 80 of the Organic Act,
given to the legislature the power to
provide the details for the apportion-
ment, il will not disturb what the leg
islature has done in the First and Sec
ond Districts. even though it did not
complete its work as to the Third and
Fourth.
An important question arises in this
connection as TO the authenticity of the
action of the Legislature in this regard.
Mr.. Edgar Caypless, the secretary OF
the Hawaiian Senate. is still here, and
has been requested to be present with
the committee when the matter is con-
sidered. Having official knowledge Of
the proceedings the Senate and its joint
sessions with the lower House. Mr.
Caypless' statements viii presumably
have considerable weight in determin-
ing what the committee Will recon-
mend TO the House.
The passage of either bill. as origin
ally introduced, would De an infraction
of the Organic Act, or at least such a
modification OF it as would establish
just such precedent as Congress is at
present inclined to avoid.
The House Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds will soon report
an omnibus bill for public buildings
There viii be no appropriation for pub
lie buildings at either Honolulu or Hilo,
no hearings having been given and no
effort made for an appropriation.
Chairman Mercer states his belief that
Honolulu has a public building suffi-
cient for all needs at present.

reply of the Chicago hotel clerk
'Damfinoi' Col. Fitch is nothing ii
not emphatic. and from his experience
before coming 10 Hawaii, is better
qualified to discuss a Territorial ques-
ton than perhaps any other man in
the Islands today. After giving express
sion To the above characteristic SEN
tcnce he continued:
II feel that il would be n grave error
for the President to make n change ei-
ther in the goyernorship or the Supreme
Court. Gov. Dole is a man OF culture
OF refined taste and of great ability
OF his personal integrity I know there
can be no two opinions. Should he be
removed. / believe 1t would be i'm
possible for the President to secure a
successor who would have the support
of any others than himself and the
men he appoints to office. Certainly
no other man can be found who would
have the confidence of so great a por-
ton of the responsible men OF the com
munity as does Gov. Dole.
Il have lived in Territories SO long,
been cognizant of the abuses in the ju-
dietary. that it is a relief To find il
possible to practice before a Supreme
Court where the integrity of the bench
cannot be assailed. have known the
corruptibility of the bench in several
Territories and / believe II would be a
misfortune IL any one of the justices
here should be removed.
Il say this recognizing the habit OF
mind of the men who compose the ex-
ecutive and judicial branches of which
speak. They have been educated un-
der a paternal form of government, a
monarchy. and this has given them a
feeling toward the people which is un-
usual. and not in accordance with
American practices. They have been
accustomed TO taking care of the peo-
pie. In fact, in the former days when
a citizen wanted anything he went 10
an officer of the government. This
could have no other effect than to give
the officials a feeling of responsibility
for the people of the country. From
