PLENTY OF LAW

Honorable cir, a self-respectiRg COM
munity has supreme contempt for one
of its own number who, while tempo
rarily invested with disbursing power,
stoops to slip his hand into the COM
munity till, and to balance the ac-
counts, lumbers up the cash book with
glittering phraseology concerning pa
tent fictitious services, and that COM
munity very emphatically, and proper
~ so, classes such an act along with
that Of the bungling but successful for
ger who raises a check. The Penal
Code amply covers such acts. After a
careful study OF the vouchers surrend-
cred to IL, and a rigid and repeated
questioning of witnesses brought before
it, this Grand Jury is of the unanimous
opinion that during the last session Of
the Legislature the Treasury Of this
Territory was in several instances
knowingly looted by the drawing OF
warrants against vouchers signed and
approved by chairman Of committee
for services never performed; that in
certain instances also, vouchers were

MISSING VOUCHERS

The indefatigable industry OF the
United States District Attorney, Rob-
ert w. Breckons, Esq, in securing wit
nesses and bringing evidence before
this Grand Jury has been Of invaluable
assistance in enabling the Jury to reach
its conclusions, and the Jury desires to
congratulate this Honorable Court up
on having such an efficient and unpre-
JUDGED Attorney.
This Grand Jury desires to express
its appreciation Of the services render
ed by the L. 5. Marshal +. X. Heudry.
Upon the adjournment Of the Terri
torial Legislature for the session Of
1903, the Secretary Of the Territory was
unable to fully comply with the pro-
vision of the Organic Act, which makes
IL his duty to record and preserve all
of the laws and proceedings Of the Leg
islature and transmit within thirty
days copies OF the same to the Secre-
tary Of the Interior Of the United
States, owing TO the fact that there
were never deposited In his office the
Vouchers Of the House of Representa-
tives, showing an expenditure by that
body of a sum Of over $50, 10000 during
the regular and special sessions. After
deliveration, this Grand Jury decided
10 investigate this matter and subpOe-
mas were therefore issued to every
member OF the House of Representa-
tives and to the Clerk of the House, to
appear before it. Clerk Solomon Niche
ula produced vouchers which
had been drawn on the Treasury
amounting to over S50CO000. Upon
checking these vouchers It was found
that 20 warrants had been drawn.
amounting to S1O99.95 which had no
corresponding vouchers. Seven of these
warrants were I'm favor Of Clerk Me-
heula. A list Of these vouchers show

Of the South African market which,
he says, has increased $50 per cent in
the last ten years, the greatest in
crease, however, having been shown
in the last two years The annual
value of this trade now exceeds $23j,-
100000. and the commissioner says
tnat the rapidity with which South
Africa has come TO the front as n

British manufacturers is almost start

Commissioner Birchenough points
out that a decade ago British exports
to South Africa were under S45. 00O,-
900, while during the last year they
exceeded S13O.OOO.0OO. In 1893 South
Africa stood sixth in the list OF Great
Britain's customers. but last year II
was beaten only by India. The Com
missioner predicts that South Africa
will this wear be the largest buyer In
the world OF the products and manu-
facturers Of the mother country.
These facts, the Commissioner says.

greatest factors in commercial and in
dustrial expansion. The present de-
preston in mining and I'm general
trade ne considers 10 be only tempo

While there is a strong sentiment
in favor OF British goods, British
manufacturers, especially those in the
engineering trade, show a decided lack

PEONAGE CASES

This Grand Jury was spec 1uaNy
charged boy the late Honorable Morris
NJ Estee as TO its duties relative to or-
lenses arising under Sections 1920 and
5-27 of the Revised Statutes of the
United States, known as the 'peouaEe'
statutes and Section 3 of the Act of
March g. 1903. relating to- the import
ing of women into the United States
for the purposes of prostitution. Maus
witnesses have been examined by t.iz
jury, with the result that it's findings
were reached only after searching ia-
Guiry into the complex social conditions
and requirements of the heterogeneous
population of the Territory. This
Grand Jury believes, Honorable SIR
that In all large communities there are
az radical differences i'm ethical stand
ards as exist i'm Hawaii. and that See
tons $3.50 and jj2I of the Revised Stat
utes and various similar provisions OF
the Statutes OF the United states are
fully as applicable to almost every
eastern city of the United States as TO
this Territory. The several bills Of in
dictmeht which were returned to your
Honorable Court under these statutes
We're found by this Grand Jury I'm the
belief that any woman living in the
United States Of any social status
whatsoever has the right to demand
and receive the full protection of the
law, and that any person who assists
in any way in restricting that right is
answerable under the laws Of the Unit
ed States and the laws of all humanity.
