USE Of STREETS

At yesterdays meeting of the eXeCu-
tive council Attorney General Dole ren-
dered to Superintendent of Public
Works Boyd the following opinion az
10 the governments right to the use OF
streets and highways, this opinion be-
ing the result of request for advice
in regard to the removal of the tele-
phone poles to the new lines made by
the department in widening certain
streets in Honolulu.
Honolulu. II. l.. July ., 1902.
Honorable James II. Boyd, Superin'
tendent Of Public Works.
Dear Sir:-I beg TO acknowledge your
favor of July /. enclosing Il letter dated
June q, 1902, from the government
electrical inspector, and asking my
opinion whether it is within the law
for this department TO insist upon the
poles being moved back to the lines
mentioned; and also what steps this
department should take in the prem
ises."
Section of Act 10 of the Session
Laws of 1874, under which act the Mu-
tual Telephone Company claims that e;
was incorporated, provides that: The
Minister of the Interior is hereby au-
thorized and empowered to permit and
allow any company now Incorporated
in any foreign country, or that may be
hereafter Incorporated in this king
dom or any foreign country. for the
transmission of intelligence by elcctri-
,,f tnl nj,
upon and along the highways and pub
lie roads and across the lands and wa
tiers of this kingdom by the apprOpria'
tons of any trees growing by nature,
or by the erection of the necessary fix
lures. including posts. piers. abut-
ments, or bridges for sustaining the
cords or wires of said lines; provided.
the same shall not be so constructed AZ
to incommode the public use of sair
| road or highway, or injuriously inter.
| reupt the navigation of said waters
provided the same shall not be 50
constructed as to incommode the pub
| lie use of said road or highway Sec.
ton j67 of the Civil Laws of 1897 de-
clares that: "All public highways are
under the general supervision. charge
and control of the Minister of the In
terror Superintendent of Public
Works., and, except as otherwise pro-
vided by law. he is charged with the
execution of all duties relative thereto
whether prescribed by this act or 9th
erwise.
| think that no private corporation
has or can have u vested right to per
manently obstruct public streets or
render them dangerous to persons trav'
cling thereon. If street is widened
or Strengthened to improve it is a pub
lie thorOughfare, the telephone poles
should be changed to meet the new
conditions. think the powers of the
Superintendent of Public Works in the
premises are ample. | would suggest
calling the attention of the telephone
company to the foregoing, with a view
to securing, amicably its acquiescenc'
in the necessary improvements.
Very respectfully yours.
| (Signed.) Il. p. DOLE,
Attorney General

Chicago, August l2.-E. Benja-
min Andrews, chancellor of the
University of Nebraska, in lee
ture upon the "Foes of Marriage"
at the University of Chicago today
declared that the American divorce
laws are so loose that they are Il
curse both upon parents and their
children. Prof. Andrews also
declared that II bachelor has no
place in the social scale, and that
to marry consumptive is crime.
"Hasty marriages do more evil tC
the marriage relation than anything
else" he declared. early mar
riages ought to be discouraged
No one should marry before the
age of p. Twenty-Five is the best
age.
"The ease with which divorce il
secured in this country is thu
greatest foe to marriage, and, il
fact, creates divorces which other
wise would not have been though
of. The injustice done to children
by divorce in the family is 81
great that no language can d,
Justice to it. No one who has ev
er been divorced can pass through
the experience unframed. Wit

advantage of them on the most
