Cooper has condescsnded ~ to give
his personal guarantee ot the bank
for $500 to "tide" the situation
through. It is not so, however,with
the majority, for the general public
we'll knows that under the law the
Superintendent OF Public Works
could have obtained, at any time
within the ak weeks OF the water
appropriation shortage, all the
money required for the emergency.
The law plainly provides for any
such emergencies, aud Mr. Cooper
would not have been obliged TO
leave his desk to have met the emet-
gency, with the antidote ready and
handy, too, in the capitol building.
The whole thing sums itself toto IN
unholy effort TO strike at political
opponents. The effort failed; the
white-wash brush was brought out,
and is being used with a "streuous-
uess" that would }reezs the energy
of President Roosevelt. The in
cident affords one suggestion, i. e.:
The need OF a check rein on the
Superintendent of Public Works
and a reformation of the water
works bureau, to the end that a
competent aud reliable head Of it may
be secured.

In Favor of Citizen Labor.

| In Favor of Citizen Labor.
The Builders aud Traders Union
last night adopted strong memo
rial to Labor Commissioner Sargent
against the employment Of Asatics
by the United States on its works ia
these Islands. 1t will be forwarded
at once. Another memorial favored
the importation OF Chinese for
labor in the cane & ,lds. The reso-
luton relating to general labor was
as folio VS.:
Owing to tbs overwhelming pre-
ponderance OF alien Oriental labor
in competition with citizen, and eli
gible to become citizen, labor a vital
labor issue has bsen acutely raised
in the Territory of H,waii.
Herewith we haud copy OF an
act drafte1 by the Builders aud

into law by the present Legislature
OF the Territory of Hawaii.
We call your attention to thu. sti-
pulation thersin, strictly requiring
eight hours of actual service" for a

provided 10 cases OF shortage OF uu-
skilled labor.
We attach correspondence reia-
tive to officials of the Federal
Governm ant 10 connection with citi.

Officials OF the F.deral Govern
ment claim that, regardless of their
sentiments, Department regulations
imperat;vely require United States
Government work and contracts to
be let to the lowest bidder, though
his bid may be based on the cheap
est alien Oriental labor.
We submit, if continued, subse-
quent to knowledge, such placing of
Federal patronage is an extreme
menace to American civiliz alton in
Hawaii.
The Hawaii IN Legislature has
gone t, the limit of the power of
local Government to correct the
evil.
We ask the Federal Government
to take similar stand.
We request, if within the bounds
OF Federal law and Chief Executive
power, the President of the United
States to issue on order to all De.
partments, having business in the
Territory OF Hawaii, 10 stipulste in

under all conditions requiring labor

FRIDAY, MAY %, 1903.
Mr.. COQPER'S APOLOGY.

The statement of Superintendent
HE Cooper in this mornings Ad-
vertisar, in relation to the water
outrage OF yesterday, is bald-faced
bluff to shield himself from public
condemnation and to protect his
understudy, and partner in the
scheme TO intimidate the Legislature
Andrew Brown. Summed up, the
essence OF Cooper's plea is that he
was sick, and that Brown didn't
know he was sick, or, at any rate,
didn't know what TO do in the fright
full (N emergency incident thereto
He admits that he knew soma Six
weeks ago that the appropriation
for pumping water was exhausted,
aud recalls that he mentioned the
fact to committees of the Senate
and House. He does not-and CAD
not-ssy, however, that hs impressed
the fact as being ono OF extra
ordinary importance and moment.

The decision to reexamine such
patients at the leper settlement, ,over
whose cases there may still linger q
question, is eminently proper and
opportune. 1t should have been
done before, and should have been,
and should be, persistently followed
up. There has been and always is
danger OF mistakes. One error OF
this kind, properly corrected, would
be worth iDfinitely more than the
trouble and expense OF ferreting it
out. But will the investigation be
honestly prosecuted? In that lies all
the good and i'll that may come OF it.
Superintendent Cooper says, in
effect, that the water was shut off
because it was shut # That is as
much as you can sse in his explana-
tior, even with microscope. He says
just enough 10 shield his pet, Super
iutendent Brown-the incompetent
and useless official drone wi O nearly
made himself criminally liable by
the tomfoo!ery of yes!erday-and
that is all. We take back our former
contention that the tug Eleu is n
expensive and useless institution.

employed in towing such excuses as

posting them in several hundred
fathoms OF brine.
