Of the constitution, the claim being that the
legislature could not take their essential func-
tions from local officers they existed at the
time of the adoption of the constitution and
transfer them to State officers appointed by the
Governor This Is argument that the State
Tax Commissioners cannot supersede the local
tax appraisers Judge Earl says that much can
be said on both sides of the question and that
expressions can be found in reported opinions
70 sustain the contention of each size Yet he
ADDS that the legislative will is not to be- thwarted
as in conflict with the constitution, unless such
conflict is undoubted. He reviews those parts
OF the constitution referring TO local officers
and the decisions of the courts upon acts of the
legislature referring to those officers From the
foundation of the State he declares there have
been frequent invaSions by the legislature. and
under statutes enacted by IL. of the rights of
municipal home rule fully as serious as that
made by the Franchise Tax act, which far
as 1 can find, have gone unchallenged by the
courts Notwithstanding the subtraction made
by this act from the functions of the local as
SCISSORS, they still remain assessors, with the
great body Of their functions untouched, and
the self-government of the localities is seri-
ously or materially impaired. My conclusion is,
therefore, that there is not by the special fran
chise act such a clear violation of the home rule
provisions of the State constitution author
ICES any court to pronounce it invalid on that
ground"
Next the referee considers the contention of
the lawyers Of the corporations that the act
violates the provision Of the United States con-
stitution forbdding the State to pass any law
impairing the obligation of contracts" He holds
that as soon as the franchises were granted they
became private property, like other private
property "and became a part of the mass OF
property within the State in private ownership
segregated from the public ownership, and therA
is no reason of public policy founded upon their
nature to condemn their taxation He adds:
MY conclusion. therefore is that the assess
ment and taxation authorized under the act or
1899 upon the special franchises therein de-
scribed do not impair the obligation OF con-
tracts
Thirdly. ex-Judge Earl considers the conten-
ton of the REALTORS that the act is impractcable
and finally concludes that the assessment is
undoubtedly attended with great difficulties, but
it can he made with such an approximation to
accuracy will satisfy all the requirements or
the law and of the constitution. Finally the
referee declares the general objections made to
the act not we'll founded.

GOV DOLE HERE on HIS WAY HOME
WHY HE WAS SUMMONED TO THIS COUNTRY
HE DECLINES TO TELL, But SPEAKS
ABOUT THE ISLANDS

Governor Dole Of the Hawaiian Islands Is IN new
York on his way back from Washington TO MS
home He was summoned to Washington by Presl-
dent Roosevelt but what was the cause or the
summons. or what resulted from their conference
he would not disclose.
THE President sent for me without giving any
reason" he said last night at the Park Avenue
Hotel and I came at once. We had snort
conference | may say he did not send for me TO
secure information: perhaps he wanted TO get bet
ter acquainted with me and talk over what Is
best to do in Hawaii
Governor Dole said that the attacks which had
been made for a year or more both against the
administrat ton and himself personally had issued
not only from antagonstic newspapers, but from
the element which desired TO obtain political con-
troll and the so-called "Anti-Missionary'' party.
which was composed of royalsts. natives and ad-
venturers. who were not particular about good
government. -. !.
Constant petitions and letters have been sent to
WASHINGTON bv the opposition, said Mr.. Dole. but
don't think they have affected the President seri
ously, for he has not at any time sent me orncial
notices hearing on the agitation; they simply made
him desrous 10 know me better, perhaps ana 10
lay plans.
Governor Dole reports that the fire claims at
Honolulu are now about three-fourthS ad1udicated
and Congress has been asked to appropriate the
50 600 900 necessary for paving them Sugar crops
and trade are good. he says. but the school sys-
tenn is still behind the demand in capacity. many
more schools and teachers being needed.
Hawaii he declared. lis beautiful healthful
and prosperous. and have no fear for its future
political integrity.
