The i'm perial purple Of the builders art;
Some lift their high bred foreheads In the air,
The calm aristocrAts Of al rect and square;

Free from the incub bus of discomfort;

IIgned an order directing the Treasurer TO pay
the same forthwith into the registry, but that

which superseded the order, pending the hear

Reflects on the Action OF Judge HaSner.
With reference to the use of the word "kin-

Johnson said that in speaking OF the various

had used these words: If your honor (Alr.

when some of the orders herein passed were
made, your honor might bave supposed your.

insisted that these words would reflect as

tlecting upon any one.
In spite OF this explanation, Justice Hagner
adjudged both in contempt OF court.

nut ranch, Is reported to be organizing
new market company for the purpose
of marketing his beef. Since he bought
the ranch he has been trying to get
eleven cents "A pound by the carcass for
his meat, The Metropolitan Meat Co.
would not pay the price, but for n
while the c. Q. zee Hop & Co. did
pay it and advertised the source OF
supply in the name .Kahikinui over its
place OF business.
Latterly the c, Q. Y. II. & Co. have
been buying their supplies from the
Metropolitan, where they get beef
wholesale at 10 cents a pound. Hence
DR.. Raymopd's scheme of organizing a
company to handle the Kahikinui beef,
The new concern will pay him 10 1-2
cents a pound.

bring the suit over again.
The attorney told the court that he
wasn't afraid of some unexplained
proposition against him which he said

DISASTER THREATENED
TO OUR JURISPRUDENCE
Constitutional Point is Mooted Which May De.
stroy Almost the Entire Jurisdiction Of
District Magistrates in This Territory.

We're held for an infamous offense,
shown by the fact of Imprisonment
though this lasted short of two months,
contrary to the provision of the con-
stitution that no person can be impris-
oned for an infamous offense without
having been indicted by a grand jury.
1t was to save the trouble and eX-
pense of bringing petty offenders be-
fore the grand jury that the Territorial
law has just been amended by drawing
a line between crimes and misdemean-
ors, which makes all offenses punish
able by Imprisonment for more than
one year crimes and all by a shorter
term misdemeanors. BY their increas-
ing the number of offenses with n max
imum of one ye RS imprisonment 1t
was intended to reduce the number of
persons to whom the infamy of crime
attached who should be committed for
grand jury investigation.
According to Mr.. Matthewman's in
depreciation of the Federal decision
quoted. no person can be lawfully i'm
without indictment by grand jury.
This provision does not apply to the
laws of States Tut only to those of
Territories. The Detroit case was one
of imprisonment under Federal law.
States, as the books show-have the
power of multiplying this provision in
their own Jurisprudence. 1t is the
same with the Federal constitutional
provision that in suits involving more
than twenty dollars either party has
the right to jury trial on demand.
Different States have copied this pro-
vision but with different amounts at
pleasure, Connecticut for instance, hav-
ing a limit of thirty dollars.
Should the event happen which is
here stated as possible, nothing but
an Act of Congress could restore Ha-
waiian Jurisprudence to its present

A constitutional question is liable to
be raised in the courts at any day,
which is fraught with disaster to the
existing statutory apportionment Of
jurisdiction between the Circuit and
the District courts of this Territory.
Decided in a certain way it would re-
duce the jurisdiction of the District
courts to the vanishing point The
well designed am ndment of the Judi
ciary Act effected at this years session
of the Legislature, which by n new
classification &C crimes and misdemean-
ors gave original jurisdiction of minor
offenses Ia greater proportion than for
merry to District Magistrates, would
through the eventuality in question be
n lifted. Not only SO. but little If
anything would be left for those func-
tionaries.
Tie point spoken of here was actu-
ally raised " ]. -. Matthewman. who
is secretary of the Bar Association,
before District Magistrate Dickey
about five months ago. In accord
anee with his usual practice, Judge
Dckey declined to rule on the consti-
tutional question. 1t was not carried
higher but having become q topic of
legal conversation, there is no telling
when it may bob up in one of the Cir
c';it courts.
Mr.. Matthewman, in his Korean cases
researches. ran across n Federal deci-
sion (16S U. S. Reports p. 223), where
the Supreme Court of the United States
held nat Imprisonment of any kind or
duration, upon conviction, constitutes
infamy and the offense found an in
famous offense.
