KILLS The RAMSEY
COUNTY PETIT
JURY BILL
Governor Withholds His Sig
nature From the McNamee
Measure on the Advice of
the Attorney General Who
Holds the Act to Be I'm
constitutional.

Gov. Van SAINT has withheld his sig
by the Legislature of this year, his rea-
son for so doing being that Attorney
General Douglas has pronounced the
bills to be unconstitutional
One Of the bills in question is that
providing for new method of draw
ing petit jurors in st. Paul, which the
attorney general says comes directly
under the decision of the supreme court
of this state in the case of the state
against Ritz.
In the Ritt case, the principle in
volved was the election of Mr.. Ritz as
assessor of Ramsey county, under a
law SO circumscribed in it's classical
ton as to population that it could ap-
ply only to this county and the court
held that this classification was I'M
constitutional in that it bore no rela-
ton to the subject of legislation, and
there was no apparent reason why a
different method should be necessary
for the election or appointment of an
assessor in Ramsey county from that
employed in other large counties of the
state.
The bill now under consideration pre-
to 900 inhabitants petit jurors shall
be selected from a list to be prepared
by a commission appointed by the
judges of the district court, whereas
under the present system the jury list
is made up by the judges themselves,
acting directly. Attorney General
Douglas takes the ground that mas
much as the bill by it's classification as
to :, ~,
Grafton strictly to st. Paul, it is uncon-
stitutional under the same principle of
law upon which the decision in the Ritz
case was based.
Bill to Refund Taxes Void.
The other bill which has been de-
clared by the attorney general to be
unconstitutional emanated from Min
neapolis and provides for the refund
ment by counties Of taxes on school
lands under certain conditions. This
measure, Mr.. Douglas says, comes di-
reetly within the scope of the decision
of the Minnesota supreme court in the
case of the state against Bruce. MINI.
Vol. so, Page 491. The intent of this
bill Is to provide that tax title pur-
chasers may recover from counties of
llc SldI0 Ddch TAXES WHICH ln6J Idy
have paid under tax titles which they
have subsequently permitted to lapse.
This measure Mr. Douglas declares to
be essentially vicious in it's purpose as
we'll as repugnant to good law, and
he says that with the exception of
some accretions that are in themselves
Objectionable, it is the same old law
that was involved in the Bruce case
and has already been pronounced by
the supreme court to be unconstitu-
tional and void.
With the exception of these two bills
the acts of the late legislature have all
been signed by the governor, and this
year all of the bills We're in the hands
of the state printer by midnight of
Tuesday night, which beats all previ-
Gus records.

ADVERTISERS DAY orr.

There will be no Advertiser on Sat-
holiday a year and it occurs on Christ
mas. On every other day of the 365
the establishment is open during each
hour of the "a Save on Sunday the
business Office and the job and bindery
departments begin work in the early
morning just as the distributors of the
paper are closing up and going home
to resume their Interrupted sleep. The
counting room force stays on duty un-
It'll p. m. Meanwhile the writing
staff has assembled, the hour being
one p. M, and all or some of the
members keep at work until a. m.
The art staff works from to during
the day and the proof-readers from
to at night. The foreman of the
composing room appears at p. m. and
stays until the cars begin to run in
the morning. The printers and limo
type operators report at 6 p. m. and
are not free until about 2 a.. M, a
couple of hours before which the press
man has arrived and gone to work.
When he leaves, the distributors are
busy and the carriers and newsboys
beginning to show up. AS the last of
them disappear the business force,
somewhat preceded by the janitors,
comes back again. On Sunday there
is partial lay-off of the business peo-
pie but the others go on as usual
After year of this sort of thing a
Christmas rest is earned-hence nc

KEEP THE FLEET.

There are rumors Of an. early depar-
ture of the fleet. II they are due to
the probabilities of war in the Far
East, and if war actually threatens,
ernment to hold the vessels here longer
than the time in which they can be put
in readiness to leave. But if the move
is simply routine matter, we judge
that the Governor and commercial
bodies of Honolulu could do much,
through their friends at Washington,
to secure a longer visit.
Such influences have sufficed many
and many time on the Pacific Coast.
There the North Pacific fleet has been
moved around at the pleasure, almost,
of coastwise towns, which wanted it
to assist in public or social observances.
Admiral Gherardi attended the Cabrillo
celebration at San Diego in 1892 with
three vessels; there have been visits
of battleships and cruisers to San
Pedro during the Los Angeles fiestas
and at Seattle and Portland celebra-
tions; and at no time have such cities
been refused when they asked for a
longer call. Washington likes to have
the American people familiarized with
the Navy and partly for that purpose
it sent a monitor up the Mississippi to
st. Louis a few months ago. So if we
show disposition to entertain our
guests awhile longer all we have to do
is to signify the fact to the President
and Secretary of the Navy and they
will do their best for US unless war
on the Asiatic station makes an inn
perative demand for the ships.
Under the circumstances Honolulu
ought to act through joint cablegram
to the President and Secretary of the
Navy asking for a longer stay of Ad-
miral Evans feet, the message to be
signed by the Governor, Chamber of
Commerce, Merchants Association and
Builders and Traders Association.

THE ONLY LIVING EX-PRESI-
DENT

Mr.. Cleveland has lived in the time
of more administrations than any one
who has ever been President. He was
born in 1887. In that year Martin Van
Buren, was inaugurated President, con-
sequently Mr.. Cleveland has lived in the
administrations of Van Buren, the short
term of William Henry Harrison and
the remainder of the termste which Ty-
ler succeeded; also in the administrations
of Polk, Taylor, Fillmore, Pierce, Bu-
chanan, Lincoln, Johnson. two terms of
Grant, Hayes, Garfield, Arthur, Benja-
min Harrison, Mckinley, and thus far in
the administration of Roosevelt-in all,
eighteen, and, including his own, twen-
ty.
Mr.. Cleveland has not only lived in
the administrations mentioned, but he
has lived to see six Presidents sue
ceed to the Presidency, three of them,
Johnson, Arthur and Roosevelt, coming
to the White House through the assas-
sination of their predecessors. The 9TH
ers were Van Buren, Tyler and Fill
more.
The fact that Mr. Cleveland is the on
ly President who succeeded himself four
years after his first administration is
well known, and is to be added to the
other unusual things about his political
life.

WHAT IS A COUGH?

A spasmodic effort to expel the mucus
from the bronchial tubes. A cold causes
more abundant secretion of mucus
and when the lungs and bronchial tubes
are infiamed, they are extremely sensi-
tive to the irritation! Unless care is
taken, the cold may result in pneu-
monia, which is swift and deadly. II
the cold is lingering one, the more
leisurely but equally fatal consumption
may set in. Do not neglect a cold OF
cough. Take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. 1t always cures and cures
quickly. Benson, Smith & Co., Ltd.

NO SALOON PRlZeFIGHTS.

The Advertiser hopes that if the
Sheriff has issued any permits for
saloon prizeights he will withdraw
them in the interests of the sailors as
well as the public.
Against such boxing matches as are
held at the Orpheum the Advertiser has
never said a word. 1t regards them
somewhat as it does football. But a
boxing match or prizefight in a saloon
where the object simply is to induce a
crowd of men to get drunk, is some
thing that Honolulu is not prepared to
look upon with favor. At such a place
the fighting will not be confined to the
roped arena; and as a. result a good
many sailors and others will go to the
hospital and some to Jail. That is not
the sort of sport" for the High Sheriff
to encourage.
Open the orpheum every night, if you
please, to boxing bouts. but keep them
out of saloons.

1t matters little in the Jones case
whether the fault of acquittal is with
the jury. the judge or the jury system,
except as it may show the exact spot
upon which to place remedial finger.
That the acquittal of Jones was mis-
carriage of justice, a provocation to
crime and an encouragement to lynch
law, is plain statement of fact. The
man is a beast of prey and his proper
place is either on the gallows, in prison
for life or in the insane asylum, we
don't know which. But one thing we
do know and the community knows
Jones has no right to be free-so far
as the Parmenter charge is concerned
with a certificate of innocence and
moral health. 1t needs no special ac-
quaintance with "old Father Antic, the
law" to recognize the guilt of Jones
and the danger to society of letting hin
loose.

TWO CLEAR HOLIDAYS
REPLETE WITH SPORT

Last night the committee of the Mer-
chants Association to arrange sched-
ule of sports for men of the U. S.
squadron and civilians arrived at a
symmetrical conclusion.
1t includes football, baseball and re-
gatta covering Christmas and the day
after-Friday and Saturday. What
will please the toilers of the city, par
ticularly, is a proposition to make Sat
urday a full holiday.
Two football games are laid down
for Christmas Day. The H. A. c.
will play team from the battleship
Oregon, and the Punahou team will
play combination of the fleet.
Two baseball games are set for Sat
urday afternoon. All Honolulu will
have a match with fleet combina-
ton, while the flagship Kentucky's,
champion of the fleet, will play the
Kamehameha nine, champions of Ho-
nolulu.
It is proposed to hold the regatta
on Saturday morning.
Fred. w. Macfarlane will go around
among the business houses to obtain
the consent of the merchants to close
up on Saturday for complete holi-
day,
In the meantime the committee, of
which Representative w. w. Harris
is chairman, will wait on Admiral Ev-
ans and lay before him the plans
above sketched for his approval if they
are satisfactory to him, and invite his
cooperation to the extent of granting
liberty to the sailors for the two days
and otherwise as he may be pleased to
render assistance.

THE NAN BEHIND THE GUN.


The American sailor is improving
with theSships of the navy. He is still
a somewhat strenuous man, as becomes
his trade, and he has his marine "idio-
syncrasies" as Admiral Evans admits
out between the bright, active, decent
young seaman of today and the beach
comning reprobate of a generation or
less ago, is a difference which does
honor to the system under which the
men of the new navy have been re-
cruited and trained.
In earlier days the most of Uncle
sans seamen were taken from the
rough old merchant marine, often that
of some other country than our own;
also from among wharf rats and riv-
er boatmen. They would fight under
good officers but 1t was a. terror to
nave them ashore. When the navy
ceased to be a thing of sails and be-
came steam mechanism, intricate of
design and complicated of process, it
was possible to enlist a better class of
men. There was not then much call
for the old fo'castle hand of the mer-
chantmen; what the navy wanted
were mechanics and men out of whom
to make artillerynen. Then young
men from country towns who had
never smelt salt water, became avail
able, and the class attracted from sea-
port towns was, in the main, decent
and manly. Three hundred sailors of
the old class turned loose in Honolulu,
denoralized the town; three thousand
of the kind now in port give very little
trouble either to citizens or police.
One thing that has contributed to the
Improvement of the service is better
treatment of the men. They have
good sleeping and eating accommoda-
ed like fellow Americans, as indeed
most of them are. Steadily the per-
centage of American nativity has
risen in the navy until it is now very
high; and the average of patriotism
and self-respect has grown with it.
AS the morale of the service increases,
good men are drawn into it thus keep
ing the level high and rising. Further
more, with the disappearance of the
old slow-coachL ships. sailors are not
compelled to be on deep water inter-
1ninably; they are hurried from one in
teresting place to another in the crack
modern cruisers and see a great deal
of the world in a short time. This al
so attracts young men Of good class.
Hence the American sailor of today,
healthy, erect, clean looking, even his
vices being sturdy and above-bo
He is welcome to Honolulu now and
in the welcome in port. and
ashore, a good fellow to know and a
man to depend on.

Pennies are coming into general cir
culation in San Francisco and else
where on the coast, a result of depart
ment stores which sell in fractions of
money and make exact change; of East
ern tourists and settlers, who insist on
their right to use any of the currency
of the nation; of the postoffice, which
makes change of pennies, and of the
refusal of the poor to give a nickel for
two cents worth. 1t will not be long
before antipathy to the copper will be
left to Hawaii where, of all places, the
little coin ought to flourish best, the
vast majority of the people domiciled
here-native and Asiatic-being in

1t is with establishment we learn, on
the authority of Mr.. Hatch, that Con-
gress has seen fit to neglect the inter-
ests of Oahu county. The question
arises: What is Congress for? Did the
people of the United States elect that
body of men to waste its time and
theirs on Insignificant matters such as
a canal at Panama, capital and labor,
postal and naturalization frauds, i'm
migration, arbitration, relations with
China, the Philippine tariff and the
financial situation, and utterly over
look the fact that Oahu wants
to be erected into the status of a Fed
eral county? What if a Federal
county is not known to the Constitu-
ton? What is the Constitution be-
tween friends? The Advertiser does
not counsel anything violent, but it
certainly seems that our Board of Su-
pervisors should take Congress to task
and be unsparing in it's exposure of
the delinquencies of that much over
rated institution.
