right in one sense but is 1t just to
those who have been long employed?
We think not. To dismiss Portuguese

proper in one way, but why dismiss
them while the Government is stiE

Members of the National Guard have
excepted to the course of The Inde.
pendent in advising against keeping up
the military establishment. This paper
is in no sense opposed to a National
Guard. In fact, it is heartily in favor
of it, provided that the Territory was
financially able to stand the strain Of
maintaining it. The Islands, however,
are not able to keep up an expensive
military system, particularly when the
necessity for such no longer exists. It
is money thrown away, and we have
no money at this time to throw away.
If the United States Government would
advance the means for keeping up
regiment-yea, brigade, for that mat.
ter-we would heartily recommend
popular endorsement of and popular
support Of the system. But the Terri.
tory has not the coin with which 10
keep it going, The matter is one pure
ly of business. The military is lux
ury beyond our means.

What we want to know, however, is
why so few of them are paying divi-
dends. B. +. Dillingham; said ten years
ago that Hawaii could raise sugar at
21l cents and make a profit. If that be
true, little money should come trail

CUT DOWN NATIONAL GUARD

There is no reason why the militia
of the Territory of Hawaii should cost
the public single dollar. In the first
place, 1t Is a useless establishment. AS
has been repeatedly pointed out in
these columns, the United States Gov
ernment is responsible for law and
order here and already maintains a
force in the Islands sufficient to ensure
that. For all practical purposes the
militia Is fifth wheel to the wagon.
1t is of no value as force against
riots. because there is an ample aggre-
cation of paid troops here to attend to
any and everything of that sort. In
case of actual war the local militia
would, as defensive factor simply
be in the way. Our defensive scheme
would have to contemplate heavy guns
and ships, and the National Guard has
neither-and would not know what to
do with them If it had them.

Inconsistency OF The Jollier.

If the policy of employing only citi-
zens is good in one branch of the Gov
ernment, why is it not as good in an
other? The doings of some of those
who are running certain parts of the
Government machinery seem very pc.
culiar to our conception, as recently
pointed out by us. In certain in
stances, it may be all very well to en-
ploy foreigners, providing citizens are
not to be found who can undertake to
do certain needed and necessary work,
but an effort should be made to have
them,-if not here, send for them from
the Mainland. We have more to say
on this subject later as we go along in
lifes path.

During the days of the now defunct
Monarchy, the Attorney.General with
one deputy did all the business for tho
Government, from Office work to that of
attending cases in court The amount
of work then attended to was about as
much as is now being handled Yet in
these days of Americanism more as
sistants are needed to expedite the
business, although specific salaries are
not provided for paying them.

The United States Government sup
plies arms, uniform and equipment for
the National Guard. That is quite
sufficient 1t is expecting too much
of a financially added Territory that
we should from year to year expend
thousands upon thousands of dollars
for the privilege of seeing such things
as Colonel Jones, Sauerkraut Ziegler
and Exile Sam Johnson parade around
in uniform, brass buttons and the 9TH
er gewgaws of tin-soldiery. From a
business and common sense standpoint
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1904-03-01

The thing for the Government to do
is to cut off, absolutely, every dollar
appropriated for the National Guard.
The companies can then organize and
run their affairs as they may see fit
under the new military law. In some
of the States the companies charge an
admission fee of SO and dues of fifty
cents month. This serves to improve
the personnel Of companies and regi-
ments, and at the same time supplies
the companies with money for expenses
and entertainments The same rule
might be followed here. 1t would re-
suit in many good things One of them
is that it would reduce the number of
ragged elements to about two or three
good companies in Honolulu, one at
Wailuku and one at Hilo, each able to
turn out without blank files on parade
or for such service as may crop up in
the mythical future. Our point is that
there is no more sense in the people
putting up thousands of dollars a year
for the maintenance of National
Guard than there would be in expend-
ing the same amount for nightly torch
light professions.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1904-03-01
the thing is absolutely absurd. Cut it

People have got used to the system
and, without thinking, jump at the con-
clusion that the little circus Familiarity
known as the National Guard is ne.
cessity. Why is it necessity? What
has 1t been used for since annexation? I?
1t was used to some purpose during
the plague fires. But what would have
been done had 1t not been in existence? I?
The United States would have supplied
the force necessary to maintain the
rules of the Board of Health. At the
very first call of the Governor (who
has control of the United States mill
tary and naval forces in the Hawaiian
Islands, by special powers granted by
the Organic Act), the United States ar
tillery, on the night of January 20,
1900, turned out and performed the du-
ties expected of them by the Govern
ment. The National Guard has been
an expensive luxury. 1t has been of
no value and, under the new condition
of things, never can except in an ex-
treme case where it might be ordered
to some continent for service as bush
whackers against band of coolies.
