Some OF the heads of the depart
ments were weak-marrowed enough
to bend the knee and offer up to the
new Caesar the honors which had been
bestowed upon them by the people,
through the Senate, for period of
four years. That is their own kettle
of fish. Treasurer Kepoikai stands
out, however, against such interfer-
ence with his business. and he is
right. In interfering with the treas.
ury department at this time, Mr.. Car
ter is seriously interfering with the
money business of the Territory at
the most important tax-collection per-
iod and Is also throwing block in the
way of the intelligent and accurate
adjustment of finances between the
Territory and the counties, which
must come about within the next six
weeks. For this reason alone, Mr..
Carter has laid himself open to i'm
parchment and removal from office,
and it is to be hoped. in the interest
of the people at large, that this and
other facts will not be lost sight of,
when the time such action is possible,
arrives.

When a clerk of the treasurers Office
waited upon Governor designate Carter
at his home at about 1 o'clock this
morning to deliver the answer of Judge
Kepoikai to his (Football George's)
latest note, the prospective future chief
executive of Hawaii appeared at his
door clad only in his night gown and
the breezes of very pleasant young
morning. From his head, however, was
gone the beautiful wig purchased in
New York nearly three years ago, and

to perform. In other words, he has
taken into his youthful and inexperi-
enced hands the entire machinery of
this government (save alone the treas
ury department, which he has found
he cannot altogether rum and is trying
to carry it on. He deserves a certain
amount of praise for his strenuousness
and pluck; but where do the people get
off? Their interests are suffering every
minute as a result of too much King"
atthe head of affairs and the confusion
that the Governor designate is causing
in the departments.

lMPEACa CARTER.

Were Secretary Carter now in the
Office of Governor he would be in a
position for Impeachment. We do not
know but that he now is, for he is in
such position as to perform the func-
lions Of the chief executive of the Ter
ritory and to all intents and purposes,
is Governor. 1t is true that he may
be turned down by the Senate of the
United States, but the fact that the law
vests the responsibility for the proper
administration of Island affairs in his
hands makes him, for the time being,
the de facto Governor. AS such, with
the great authority entrusted to him,
he is obstructing public business, for
no reasonable cause but, to all appear
ances to crafty a silly whim. He de-
mands, in the first place, the resigna-
ton of Treasurer Kepoikai, an officer
appointed by Governor Dole to hold Of
fee for four years, the appointment and
tenure of Office being approved by the
vote of the Hawaiian Senate, which
represented the peoples voice. When
Kepoikai doubted the legality of such
a demand, Mr.. Carter sweled up and
declared that he would not proceed
with public business until every cab
met" officer had resigned
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1903-11-19

And what is behind the present at
titude of Mr.. Carter? 1t is hard to dis
cover anything new or unusual. 1t is
purely case of swelled head that, in
the words of the chairman of any meet
ing, in introducing a speaker, sis too
well known to leave an Introduction
necessary" Mr. Carter has possessed
the idea a long time that he knew
exactly how to run the Hawaiian gov
eminent and that nobody else knew
anything about it, This idea led him
into conflict with Superintendent Coop
er time after time and finally resulted
in the retirement of that official from
the public service at moment when
his experience, his knowledge of pub
lie works then pending and his brains
were sorely needed. He had tiffs with
Governor Dole and with the head of
almost every department of the govern
ment. When his appointment was an
nounced he conceived the idea of set
ting up government of his own. He
would be the little Grover Cleveland"
and his cabinet officers would be so
many puppets, to come at the ring of
his bell and to carry out his commands.
He would show the people of the Ter
ritory that beneath the hazel wig from
New York that shelters his noble brow
rests the master-brain of this land, and
that the members of his cabinet"
were competent only to receive and
obey orders.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1903-11-19

If Secretary Carter will not accept
the Office of Governor until Treasurer
Kepoikai resigns, then we say let him
stay out of the office. The treasurer is
legally and morally right in his posi-
ton. He is supported not alone by the
Organic Act but by precedent, from the
Presidential chair down. If Carter
chooses to show himself to be really
big ninny, it is his privilege.

We think that both Carter and Ke-

is our authority that Kepoikai sat up

also sitting up late to receive it, for
when the last reply was handed him.
