BONDING OF OFFICIALS.

II is perhaps hardship under the Of
fetal bonding bill to compel the chief
OF department. TO become responsible
for the acts OF clerks who are not bond
ed to him, but better that than the
hardship to taxpayers which might re-
suit from the continuance Of the ire
sponsibIe system that now prevails.
The recent scandals in the Treasury
and the Board Of Public Works were
due. in a degree. to the absence Of that
restraint which vigilant bondsmen ex-
ercise. Learning by experience. the
Legislature passed a remedial measure
which now awaits the Governors zig
nature It is highly important that the
bill should become a law; and because
OF that the public Wi hope that Gov
er1lor Dole, despite his objections to
signing bills after the adjournment OF
the Legislature, VIII put as name to
this one. A question Of etiqIette should
not stand in the way of such signal /
service to the Territory.
The clause complained of, the one
making a chief responsible for the acts /
of his subordinates, may be embarrass-
ing to the chief in one way but it would
prove help to him in another. He
would insist, then, on appointing his
own clerks and the public would gain
by the assurance hat he would choose
honest ones. No one could reasonably
ask him to appoint this or that man for
reasons Of politics or gratitude; he.
would be tacitly conceded the right to
make his own choice.
But the one great argument for the
bill is that some form OF bonded re-
straint should be imposed upon every t
official who handles public money or di-
reefs its expenditure.

PLUCKlN6 TOURISTS.

I Complaint is again made by tourists
of excessive charges by hackmen.
Ladies who get off a steamer to drive
over the city and are assessed six dol
lars apiece for the privilege naturally
complain. Jas do those who are made
to pay double fares between the dock
and the business district uptown. But
the complaint is not confined to them.
1t is shared by every citizen who wants
tourists treated fairly so that they may
stay long. come again and give the
place good name afterward.
More than one promising resort has
been spoiled by the greed of hackmen-
Niagara Falls for instance. For years
the crowds kept away from there sim
ply because of the manner in which
the hackmen despoiIed them. Finally
the citizens came to the rescue of the
town, put the hack business under a
stiff curb and now Niagara's prospects
are picking up again.
Here the tourist trade is in peril of
being strangled at birth and by the
very men who would profit most by
Honolulu's popularity among pleasure
seekers. Not all hackmen are in the |
game. but enough are TO neutralize !

until January, 1905. So far as the COM

section %, provides that it shall take
effect August 1st, 1903, until which time
the old law will prevail In relation
to the period intervening between that
date and January, 1905, section of the
act states that, until such Jury Com
missioners shall have been duly APP
pointed and qualified according TO law"
- such selection and list of
such persons to serve as jurors as
aforesaid shall be made, in the manner

clares that. Whenever a sufficient
number of jurors are not drawn or
summoned" 1.-The Court may
order the Sheriff to summon"

some questions under the new legisla-
