GENERALIZATION.

People who love to repeat old shib-
boleths have much to say against the
Capitalization" OF government. New
ertheless every decade shows a closer
approach TO such a status in Federal
affairs. Speaking of the recent decis-
ion of the U. S. Supreme Court, put
ting the Erie canal into Federal con-
troll, a San Francisco journal says:
THE story of the development of the
United States is a story Of the cen
tralization of power in the Federal
government With regard to matters
connected with the framework Of gov
eminent, We Americans are the most
conservative people on earth, and so
the movement has been slow. but it
has been none the less sure. The
tendency is a natural, an inevitable
one. It is seen in every phase of hui
man activity. The time is coming
when California and New York viii be
geographical, not political, names;
when every citizen of this country viii
realize to the fullest extent that he.
is citizen of the Whole United
States
Here in Hawaii we are engaged in
a decentralizing experiment with the
most unhappy prospects for the tax
payers; yet every thoughtful citizen
knows that if the whole of local
authority were lodged in a single sys-
tenn of administration as simple as
that of a mayor and board of trustees,
Hawaii would be better off. In all
kinds of business, Capitalization means
the most efficiency at the least cost; it
directs armies and ships in the only
way they can be managed and made
useful. Why, then, should it not be
desirable in the business of civil gov
eminent, especially in a land where
there are ample guarantees against
abuses of power?

Some of the vouchers which the
Federal grand jury unearthed show
large sums paid to Editor Tesla, in
Guiding several hundred dollars which
Tesla claims to have paid for clerical
assistance to himself. Now perhaps
Tesla will make public the vouchers
for the clerks he employed on work
for which the House was already pay
ing him the usual exorbitant' rates.

Yesterdays cable dispatches indicate
that the Asiatic fleet will not hurry
back to Yokohama on its arrival here
If that was the intention of the Navy
Department, the battleships would
have remained on the Asiatic station,
as they sailed after the order for the
return to Yokohama from Honolulu
had been issued. Although there is
no further need for demonstration
at Panama the practice cruise to Ho-
nolulu win be of much benefit to the
fleet.

MISS HAeuEwooD's PROGRESS
eenard Murphy Tells of Progress OF
His Ward.

Des Moines, June Bernard Muir
phy of Vinton, made his annual report
to the governor yesterday as trustee
of the fund for Linnie Haguewood, the
deaf-blind ward of the state now in
state institution in South Dakota.
The report shows there was on hand
September / of the state fund $3.50,
which was expended up TO April in
salary for her teacher Miss Doro Dom
aid. The state has appropriated $4,000
for the education of Linnie Haguewood.
The twentyseventh general assembly
appropriated $1,000 OF this and the
twenty eighth the rest. This is now
expended. In addition to this, Mr.. Muir
ply says there has been expended
81 900 from private fund held by him.
There remains $500 of the private fund
which will be used to complete this year
and for the next school year, as far
as it will go.
In closing his report. Mr.. Murphy
says:
1T is almost impossible to express In
words the value Of this money to Miss
Haguewood. When taken in charge
she was almost helpless in almost total
darkness, so far as her mind was con-
cerned Today she is a mature young
lady of 81 years with well-deyeloped
mind and body. Miss Donald, her spe-
ciai teacher, will make her annual re
port to me in July, which l will file
later. that the people of the state may
see the progress Miss Haguewood is
making

Special to Times Republican.
of Union, Hardin county, who is serV-
ing twenty year sentence for murder,
has appealed to Tom Minor to make a
desperate effort to secure hearing IN
the supreme court in the hope that he
may receive a second trial. If Minor
fails Clemens will always feel that by
reason Of the negligence or incompe-
tency of his attorneys he was deprived
of fair chance to have his case re-
viewed by the highest court OF the
state. Minor has been brought into
the case since the court refused to con-
slider the appeal of Clemens some
months ago. The court found, on eX-
animation of the papers In the Office
of the clerk of the supreme court, that
there was apparently an appeal on be-
half Of Clemens. but there was not
shown either an Indictment. or judg-
ment, or a notice of appeal, hence the
case was affirmed without further con-
sideration Now Minor comes and
files motion to have the case re-
opened, and to have the record cor
rected. and desires an order to the
clerk of the district court to compel
him 70 file the transcript properly.
Minor recognizes the difficulty of the
task ahead of him and says that only
at the most vehement appeal Of the ap-
pellant would he undertake to try and
either resurrect or revise what con-
fidentlv looked to us as a legal corpse.
He cites the recent DefrieZ case, from
the same county as a similar one
where a mere technical error stood
in the way of justice. He declares that
| If there was no Indictment and nc
Judgment, there would have been nc
| appeal. and II there was no appeal the
attorney general would have moved tc
strike the case from the docket for
| that reason. An elaborate argument Is
presented to show that in justice anc
! fairness to Clemens the court should
reopen the case and give it considera-
| ton on its merits. The blame is placed
primarily with the county clerk who
| failed to make the transcript required
and with Clemons attorneys who die
| not correct the same, nor follow Ut
the case as they should have done.
