WASTING TIME.

The Legislature, unfortunately for
its reputation, is spending a great deal
of the peoples time and money in pass
ing freak resolutions and searching for
mares nests. This is not for lack of
legitimate business. There is plenty to
do along the higher levels of ublic
work The County bill, Torrens sys-
tenn, liquor problem, reform of legal
practice, changes in the embezzlement
and building laws, and appropriation
measures call for every minute of leg
islative time; yet we find the members
turning from these duties of State to
investigate Supt, Coopers sidewalks
and ask gratuitous questions of officials,
some of whom are appointees of the
President and over whom the Legisla-
ture has no jurisdiction.
The sidewalk agitation is altogether
ridiculous. Supt Cooper paid for the
job done by the Public Works Depart
ment at his place when the work was
finished-paid fair price out of his
own pocket, something a committee of
the Legislature could have found out
in ten minutes. But some OF the
demagogues wanted to Investigate"
and II possible to cast odium on Cooper.
All they viii achieve, however, is odium
for themselves and a waste of valuable
time for the taxpayers.
And the session is nearly half over
with nothing in particular done. AT
this rate the Republican Legislature
will soon be on par, In public dis
esteem, with its discredited predecessor

FOR THE ST. LOUIS FAIR.

With their attention recalled to the
matter of the st. Louis Fair by the
Kupihea resolution, which went
through the House yesterday, some of
the members of the Legislature are
coming to the opinion that the pro-
vision made by the House for this great
exposition is too small. The Senate
made the amount $4,000 for the con-
struction of the Territorial building and
all the other expenses of the exhibit
which all agree should be made by the
Territory.
The kupihea resolution Is, in itself.
a peculiar sort of an affair at the best,
1t cannot be said to have any bearing
upon the representation of the Terri
tory, beyond the sending of double
quartet of singers, to be selected by
Prince Kuhio, and their salaries and
expenses to be fixed by the Governor.
Beyond that it is vague, as was said
of one of the resolutions from the same
source by the Attorney General.
The provision for three commission
ers, one to be appointed each by the
Governor, the President of the Senate
and the Speaker of the House reads all
right as to the naming of the men, but
there ii stops. There is not word as
to their duties, excepting that they are
to represent the Territory. There is
nothing as to how they are to conduct
their work, no suggestion as to their
pay or expenses nor the organization
of the commission, and in consequence,
If the appropriation does pass, there
will have to be an organization pro-
vided.
What is needed now is realization
of the necessities of the occasion,
There must be a complete machine pre-
pared If the exposition is to be of value
to the Islands, There are few enough
days left for the work of the session,
and ii remains for the business men of
the Legislature to take up the matter
and push 1t along to successful ter
mination.

COUNTIES AND FARMERS.

Among the few popular advantages
tn he had of county government in Ha-
wall is that of stimulating the settle
ment and tillage of the soil. In get
ting population. counties become rivals,
and civic rivalry is a great force In
building up and peopling new coun-
try. One strong incentive in our own
case will be to turn Territorial pubic
lands into taxable property, so as to in
crease the revenues and credit OF coun-
ties. The public domain is vested IN
the Territory by the Organic Act, un-
til Congress shall otherwise provide,
and 1t is a delicate question whether
Congress, would consent to turn them
over to county control, a thing Whlch
is not done in any other Territory or in
any State. But when the lands are
disposed of to private individuals they
become assets of the county in when
they are situated and subject to us
local taxation.
AS soon as new county is organized,
its people go to work to make some
thing of it. The object sought is not
due to pride more than economy; for
the greater the population, the less is
the per capita burden of taxes, even
where a considerable sum is expended
upon public works. new county
looks sharply after its roads so as to
give prompt access to its markets and
TO the county seat; and it's board or
supervisors seiZes every reasonable
chance to increase its taxable area
These things make for the common
good in a way which seems, in prac-
tice, to be beyond the power of the
Territory. General legislation for
Territory spreads too thin; special leg
islation is needed to most surely effect
special purposes, such as the welfare of
localities and the progress of municipal
ideas.
To those who rightly regard the
coming of the small farmer as the sal
walton of the Territory, the formation
of counties will be a distinct encour-
agement. Good citizenship also gains
Not only will the counties individual
ly seek the farmers but they, when they
come, will save the counties from mis-
government The American farmer is
the surest foe of civic corruption, He
rebels against all extravaganza in Of
fee. while not illiberal in the matter OF
outlay for roads and schools. Hawai-
cannot have too many of such men and
perhaps the formation of counties VIII
not be too great a price to pay Tor
them.

The Legislature would do well to go
SLOW with the Pauoa springs PROPOSE
ton and with the Kaimuki scheme until
it gets an impartial estimate from eX-
of the property. 1t takes a great deal
of land and great deal of water to
be worth a quarter of million dollars.
BY looking around, the Legislature may
find that the Territory has enough land
and water of it's own to provide a
reservoir of sufficient capacity and
height above sea level to answer all
the probable demands of Honolulu for
long years to come.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1903-03-27
THE LANGUAGE QUESTION.

The Hawaiians who are striving to
their language in the Legislature have,
perhaps, overlooked the lesson of New
Mexico's failure to get Statehood. One
of the counts in the Beveridge report
against the admission of New Mexico
one in the gravity of which the Senate
concurred, was that Spanish was the
language of the Legislature, of many
of the courts, and of political addresses
in campaigns. The Beveridge commit
tee pointed out that no Territory can
be AmericaniZed so long as its official
and political business IS carried on,
even partially, in an alien tongue, and
that the want of Americanism con-
stitutes an insuperable barrier to the
advancement of a Territory to the rank
enjoyed by States.
Having anticipated its rebuff, New
Mexico decided, in the last political
campaign, to choose only English
speaking officials, and now even the
Legislature can answer, with one voice,
to the national language test. Only by
following this course, and living up to
it, can the Territory hope to emerge
from it's outgrown swaddling clothes.
1t would amaze the people there to
learn that Hawaiians, who also cherish
Statehood aspirations, are taking the
fatal course of insisting upon the use
of their aboriginal tongue in the con-
duct of public business No one knows
better than they how useless it is to ask
for Statehood in any other language
than that which Americans speak.

The homecoming of the Queen with
out the 100000 she asked of Congress is
the fifth or sixth journey of the kind
she has made. Experience is a dear
teacher and it is to be hoped for her
own sake, that the Queen has finally
learned how useless it is to ask Con-
gress for a gratuity. Claim agents and
"jollying" Congressman have often per-
suaded her otherwise, for reasons of
their own, leaving her to bear her dis
appointment as well as she could in the
end. Possibly they will urge her to
come back next fall because Of Ku-
HOS presence in Congress, but that
could not possibly help her claim, the
fact that Kuhio is her heir making it
impossible, assuming she had chance
anyway, for him to get her gratuity bill
through the House.

All of these will pay, If properly

not only require planting and cutting,
but skilful manipulation after the crop

point of diversified industries. We have

IT'S THE TRUTH

Tell a man it's a food and
he doesn't want to pay for it.
Tell him it's a medicine and
he says it doesn't look like it,

you're playing some game on
him.
Yet these are the facts about

The old, old attack on the Board of
Health was resumed in the House yes
terday. When it began can be seen by
an examination of the old files of the
Advertiser. Sixteen years ago Ned
Bush was after the Board and he had
his predecessors. The whole difficulty
Is that the Board persists in opposing
the large class in our mixed population
which objects to sanitary measures of
any kind and to the segregation of the
lepers. If the malcontents had their
way it would not be long before every
port would quarantine against Homo
lulu and the inflow of tourists and in
vestors would abruptly stop; but so
long as the Board has it's way, Homo
lulu will remain an attractive and safe
city.

4 BAD POLICY.

1t Is proposed In the Legislature to
grant an exemption in taxes to the
Winston railway project and to the pro-
posed Hilo electric railroad.
The only time anything of the sort
has been done in the Territory was In
the interests of the Oahu Railway and
Land Co., an enterprise which Is so
highly profitable that the exemption
simply takes the form of an extra divi-
dend The Territory has lost by 1t
without meeting any crying need of the
company. No such aid has been given
or, we believe, asked for-by the
Rapid Transit Company, the Tramways
Company, the Hilo railroad, the Kohala
railroad the Kohala-Hilo railroad, the
Kona- Kau railroad or the Kahului rail-
road If two of the new enterprises are
to be freed from their share in the ex-
penses of the common government, then
all the new ones should be put on an
equal footing. To help some and leave
others out, three of the latter being
roads in operation, and all having
franchises, would be legislation of
very questionable sort
The proposal is made the more doubt
full by the fact that the counties, when
they are organized, will need every
cent they can get. They cannot afford
to cut off the revenue which large cor
porate enterprises would naturally
yield.

MALUHIA.

One of the best uses to which the Ter
ritory could put money would be In the
establishment of an agricultural school
where experts in the production OF
tropical crops would teach anybody
who wished to learn. all that is known
about raising such products as are
enumerated above and many more. Ex-
perts in fruit, vanilla, tobacco, sisai,
pineapples, banana and cocoa culture,
experts in dairying and chicken raising
and in the analysis of soils. could find
plenty to do in such college, one of
the adjuncts of which would be an eX
perimental farm.
Our correspondent has the right idea
about small farming. He does not con-
found it as so many do with market
gardening; nor does he suggest the
raising of crops here for export that
would have to compete with California
and the Pacific Northwest. 1t would
be a blunder even If Irish potatoes did
we'll here to use land for their produc-
ton which would yield pineapples.
vanilla beans or alligator pears instead.
Hawaii should raise the crops it can
export, cultivating vegetables mainly
for domestic use.
Some of the expert instructors needed
are now available at the United States
Experiment Station. But they are not
men who go out to manage farms for
people; their usefulness will take the
form of giving pointers and. If an Agri-
cultural College is started, they may
be depended on to assist it in every pos
