TOPICS Or 1HE DAY.

We think the reference OF item 8
relating to the pay of police of the
different Islands to a special com
mittee consisting of fhs members of
each island, with the sole exception
OF Kauai, which seemed content to
leave it as submitted in the Salary
Bill, is a wise move. All such items,
and including incidentals, should be
carefully investigated. but in the
case OF the pay OF police, we believe
that every officers psy should be
distinctly appropriated, and that
the same should not be left, as
formerly, to the heads on the differ
ent Islands.

REDUCING SALARIES.

The House yesterday, while con-
sidsring the Six Months Salary Bill,
began the task OF cutting down sala-
ries from the Attorney General, and
the same old saw" was advanced
for not reducing, because good,
competent men could not be got to
work for small salaries. And we
would ask why NOT In these days
when fetrenchment should be prac-
tieed, we feel that Government eala-
ries are even better than anything
else to be got, because it is sure and
certain, while those who are engaged
10 professional lines are not 30 very
sure of what their income is to be
And besides, Government hours oil
labor are less.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1903-06-02

aud we think this most unfair and
unjust, The salary was passed as in
the bill, that is, at the present rate
OF 1876 per month, although an at
tempt was made to reduce TO 5000
to accord with yesterdays action on
that OF the Attorney General. When
once q reduction has been made with
regard to the head OF one depart
ment, all Others should follow in the
same wake, is what we deem a. just,
fair aud proper. 1t locks as il the
members OF the House are setting
up a dangerous precedent and
classification by this unjust class
disparagement which should not be
tolerated and it would do the House
more credit to reef in" q little.

Charles Hopkins, Jr., is the author
OF project to take large number

efforts to Japanese the scheme
would probably meet with more
public favor. The Chinese have

colony has been Of iuestimable
value. AS no more eau come to the

Another baseball player has been
imported. The principle of sending
abroad for men is wrong in that it
is certain to lead to expensive and
unsatisfactory ends. Honolulu in
terests itself in baseball for the
sport, and to the extent OF it's per-
sonal acquaintance with the players.
The appearance Of strangers in the
field detracts materially from the
enthusiasm in game. Besides that,
the practice OF sending to the Coast
for men is almost certain to cul min
ate ia a scramble OF the clubs for
foreign timber, and alieniz ng the
makeup OF the teams. This would
be expensive and would divest base
ball OF its local characteristics and
charm

Representative Apdrade said yes.
terday, in comparing the working OF
the Government to that OF ship, in
defense OF his former law partner,
that the Attorney General was the
Captain of the Ship OF State. We
think that he is way of 10 such q
comparison. The Governor is the
Captain, according to our concep-
ton OF the matter, and the Attorney
General is the chief Navigating Or
6cer, who is supposed to legally
navigate the vessel OF Government
out OF any dangerous shoal. But to
make out that such an officer is the
captain is to belittle The chief, and
in this case,it is the Chief Executive,
% the Attorney General is only one
OF the many ofiosrs serving under
the same guiding hand.

We are strongly inclined to think
that, as business proposition, the
Hawaiian band should be accepted
as q Territorial institution and sup.
ported from the general treasury.
No one could bear the thought of
parting with the band or even Of
clipping it's Wings" as it were. As
an attraction-and really a powerful
advertising medium-it has filled an
important place in the past and
there is nothing TO show that it will
be OF less value in the future. To
say that the band is Honolulu in
stitution comes natural to country
members; but the facts do not sup.
port the case. What is of value in
making Honolulu attractive to
tourists is also Of valu. to tie
country towns. The benefit ia a
