COUNTY LAW DIRECTORS.

Senators Hale and Bacon objected
TO the consideration of Hawaii's Coun-
" Ratification bill because they UNDER
stood there was some opposition to II
in Honolulu.
This report of Francis NJ. Hatch on
the course of this important measure
sxemplifies to the citizens of Hawai-
vhat a little real or imaginary opposi-
ton can accomplish in Congress to-
wapd checking measures for the ad'
yapcement OF this Territory or prompt
settlement of yexed problems.
This county ratification proposition
has been endorsed at public meeting
of Honolulu citizens. 1t has been ap-
proved by the Republican organization
Of the Territory Acquaintance OK
Senator Hale and Senator Bacon write
or cable them that there Is local OBJ
lection to this measure. Hawaii Is now
ON all tours OF insignificance with 9TH
or Territories. Its affairs stand second
TO the claim of u pension applicant
who appeals to his Senator for an in
crease. II Is very easy matter Tor
Senator or Congressman to request q
postponement of any measure dealing
with Hawaii based on a single objec-
ton from one citizen of the Territory.
The request will almost invariably
prevail. The objection in this instance
of two citizens and two Senators
stands a good chance OF costing the
taxpayers OF the Territory the thou
sands of dollars represented in the eX.
pense of an extra session of the Leg
islature.
The lesson of this Senatorial incident
Is merely tnis Citizens Of this Terri
tory have the untrammeled. right TO
object. THEY can keep on objectipg
forever. From the cradle to the grave,
Congress will not interfere with their
privilege Of objection. And as result
of such objections Hawaii will exist
for years without receiving favorable
consideration from the Federal legis-
lature.
Citizens of this Territory are not
blind to the fact that the objection
voiced by Senators Hale and Bacon
came from enemies Of the county law.
These enemies hope to knock down.

WOMAN DIFKS COURT

Trial OF Hankuch Tarayama, alleged
adultery. proceeded in Federal Court
this morning United States District
Attorney Breckons for the Govern"
ment. Attorney Frank Thompson for
the defense.
4 sensation was created shortly after
u diminutive little japanese woman,
Mura Kuhara. took the stand. She IL

Breckons endeavored TO ascertain from
her facts relative to the actions of The
principal, hut Mura was as determined

Chester Doyle Interpreted and, as
the answers of the stubborn little wo-
man were made known the court room
was filled with laughter. Judge Dole,
perforce, also smiled. Breckons was
not inclined to hilarity, however.
First the witness was cautioned that
she need say nothing that might tend
10 incriminate herself.
What is your name?" asked Breck
ons.
"Mura Kuhara." was the reply.
How Old are you?"
"Twenty-siX."
Have you lived in Japan"
Yes, have been in Japan" an

! BrcCkons insisted that Mura shoulC

right TO refuse to say anything sh'
thought might tend to incriminate her
self Learned counsel went at cacl
other for moment Judge Dole sal,
snc could not possibly incriminate her
self by answering the question an,
ordered the wee Mura to answer.
Doyle stated to Mura the courtl
command.

her Honorable, the Miss Mura.
Once more was the question asked

) BrecRons talked at length and elC
qucntly on the state of affairs indica
ed by the stubborn witness.
Japanese methods should not b
allowed to prevail in an America
court" he declared. He went on t
say that he could proceed with tn
case without the woman's testimony.
Judge Dole ordered Mura committe
for contempt until 10 o'clock tomorro'
morning, when she will be given an OF
sortunity to purge herself.
Thompson asked permission to II
