LEGISLATURE.
IGarden Island.l

The country has been surprised and
delighted with the expeditions and bus
iness-lfke way in which the Legislature
has attacked the problem set before 1t
by the Governor.
1t is surprise; for looking at the
history of the past Legislatures. 1t was
fully expected that the sixty days al
lowed might be used in the process.
For 1t was not a simple problem and
might have given rise to endless dis
cussion. some of which might have been
Of great value. Some portion OF the
press. knowing the powers Of speech
Of some members, even went so far as
to counsel II to prune its eloquence, 10
condense It's periods and speak only
OF essentials. Contrary to all expecta-
ton the Legislature has done all three
and has occupied only an eighth of the
time II was entitled to. The members
of the Senate and of the House are to
be congratulated on their self-restraint,
The whole procedure shows, too,
that when men are In earnest and
know well what they have to do, when
they know the possible consequences
of q failure to do their duty they are
not apt to waste words.
A definite policy is a great time
saver. In this respect much of the
credit is no doubt due to Governor Car
ter, who laid sketch OF his policy be-
fore the members in such lucid manner
that they would not fail to see a way
out Of the difficulty and had little
trouble in fitting their own schemes,
which each probably had in his pocket
TO that of the Governor. 1t is simple
and rational policy, for country as
Tor man, to buy only what 1t can and
not merely what it wishes; in fact, to
keep out OF debt.
The country is delighted with the
success of the Governor and the Legis-
lature and though not seated round
the festive board at the Young Hotel
reJoices with them and joints in theii
congratulations.

having been suspended from the min.

criminal lapses, sought restoration at
the hand OF the association. After
careful consideration and a lengthy
and searching discussion It was con.
cluded that his faults had been too
grievous to warrant restoration TO the

the integrity of their position as Will
lead them to voluntarily withdraw
from passing upon their own work or

composed of such Justices will inspire
confidence from every citizen. As the

fundamental law. Nor does Frear's
position on the commission to frame
the Organic Act furnish the desired
precedent. In passing upon this law
Chief Justice Frear does not preside
over the court of last resort. The Or
ganic Act Is Federal law and as such
goes finally to the Federal courts. 1t
is well to note in passing that the Fed
eral Court has recently upset one of
Chief Justice Frear's interpretations OF
the organic Act in the fisheries cases.
Again, the Chief Justices official
on Territorial or 9TH
er laws in his annual reports do not
furnish the much desired precedent.
Suggesting changes to prevent con-
fiets and make the laws run smoothly
Is quite a different matter from volun-
tarily participating in the shaping of an
entirely new system and then sitting
In judgment on the law.
Incidents may exist where judges
have incidentally consulted with legis.
lators on laws in the course Of creation,
but the Bulletin is not aware Of any
record, which the best American legal
! talent considers as right, where o
/ Chief Justice offers his service, butts
in, and makes law. Judging from the
defenders statements. there must
have been other suggestions. Other.
wise the Advertiser, apparently fresh
from an interview with Chief Justice
Frear, would not state that the county
law would have been all right had the
Chief Justices advice been followed.
What legal privilege or moral right
had the Chief Justice to give any ad'
vice unless he contemplated withdraw,
ing from the bench when the law final
ly enacted came up for Interpretation
The Bulletin believes Mr.. Frear had no
such privilege or right under proper
Interpretation Of American judicial rec.
titude and fairness. One thing is'clear
Chief Justice Frear fulfills Mr. Thurs.
tons ideals of judicial conduct, and
can properly be classed as a follower
of his school of judicial thought and
action.
To secure an American parallel to
the Chief Justices record in the coun
ty bill matter the Advertiser must cite
a case where Judge helped to frame
a law and then sat in judgment on It
and then show that legal authorities
commend such action. If this Is as
common as the Advertiser suggests II
ought to be possible for it to produce
the Chief Justice of State or Terri
tory who volunteered suggestions on
county or municipal law and ther
judged It from the bench. There arc
many Chief Justices in the United
States and many county laws on which
Chief Justices have passed.

ABOUT EXPENSE MONEY
J. (ORR[CIS UNIRUTA

A friend Of j. X. Nahale, defeated
candidate to go in the Hawaii delega-
ton to the National Republican Con.
yention, says that the charge in the
morning paper that the reason Nahalc
was defeated was because haoles would
have had to pay his expenses, is un-
just and untrue. One Of the Nahale
supporters in the convention said to
Bulletin representative on the SUBJ
ject: "Nahale did not go to white men
with requests that they put up money
to take him to Chicago. Nahale want
ed to go and expected to pay his own
way. He can raise the hard cash to
go around the world any time he wants
to, without asking aims from anybody.

He has an income from land. He holds

put up for him Is false. On the con-
trary. white men who wanted Mr.

Concerning Old Letters.

From the Charleston News and Courier.
We wonder if the time will ever come
when people Will realize the futility of keep
ing their letters after they have been read
and answered Even as a matter OF senti-
ment ii is a useless thing, since, If the
writer lives and remains true to all the pro-
testations of love or friendship, there IL no
necessity to go back to old letters to assure
ones self of his her feelings. II, on the
contrary, the writer's sentiments have
changed, then there is nothing more pain
full than to reread pledges of eternal affec-
ton that have proved, false. The case Is
still worse If the person who wrote the let
tiers we so much prize be dead; since there
is nothing more heartbreaking than to read
the expressions of a loving heart when that
heart has ceased to beat and the hand that
traced them is cold in death. If we would
spare ourselves many bitter or painful or
sorrowful moments it is well to acquire
the habit of destroying every letter, unless
il be an important business one, the mo-
ment 1t is answered Within the last few
days in a murder case In Virginia. the
letters of husband and wife were read In
court and admitted in evidence: but while
this publicity Of a private correspondence
may have been necessary in the circum-
stances, one cannot help feeling how pain
full thing II is to drag into open court let
tiers which both the writers intended for no
other eyes than those OF the person to whom
they were addressed.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LEAGUE.
Twenty-Four Clubs May Comprise the
Organization Next Season.

Members of the Sunday School Athletic
Association and Others interested in The
Sunday School Base Ball League will hold
a meeting In the interests of next seasons
organization at Foundry Church tomorrow
night. Not only have the superntendents
of Sunday schools represented In the league
last season been invited to attend the con-
ference, but invitations have been extended
to the superintendent of other Sunday
schools that may want to join the organi-
cation next season. The meeting will in
clude the officials of last seasons league.
the managers of the clubs and the man
ayers of prospective clubs also. 1t is the
intention of those in authority to reorgan-
lZe the league for next season on a slightly
different footing.
The officials of the old league desire to
have two separate series of games next
season. one in Mount Pleasant and one
down town. This, in measure, was at
tempted last season, with a twelve-club
league. 1t is hoped 10 organize a twenty
four-club league for next season, and to
have the organization divided into two
parts. so that twelve clubs will play per-
manently uptown and twelve permanently
downtown. AT the close of the season 1t is
the intention TO have post-season series Of
games between the leading clubs of both
sections of the league. 1t is to determine
upon this line of action and to invite the
criticism and suggestion of the public and
the managers and officials of prospective
be held. Last season was most success
full one for the Sunday school base balists.
and 1t is said that the indications that
next season Will be even better. Already
work is under way at the Mount Pleasant
grounds to put them in the best of shape by
spring. The league has leased the grounds
Tor another year. and the directors have
authorized the expenditure of a Of
money that is said to be sufficient to make
them good the best professional
grounds. Several churches that were left
out of the organization last year have made
application for membership for next season,
and it is stated that the prospects for
most successful season are very bright.
The meeting tomorrow night will be presid-
ed over by the president of the league, and
| he has invited suggestions to the best
method of organizing for next season.

Sir William Harcourt.

From the Contemporary Review.
Sir William Harcourt once said of an emil
nent statesman that he did not understand
the British constitution because he hau
never been a protestant or a whig. He mas
himself been called the last of the wings,
and he used himself to say that he ana
Dean Stanley We're the last Erastians.
These summary judgments are not TO DE
trusted The doctrine that the law is ABOVE
the king and that the state Is above the
church Is bound up with the establishment
and with the house of Hanover. No doubt
Sir Williams professionalism. at least
on its secular side, was conspicuous, ana
no amount of association with radicals
ever quite unwhigged him. An aristocrat
nIaying the part OF "A democrat, he could
not forget that he was a Harcourt, ana ne
practiced the old-fashioned vice of family
bride But If he had an imperfect sym
nathy with a generation which cared moth
ing for grandfathers, and was so far be-
hind his age, at least he despised the sor-
did ignoble crew who enter parliament IN
search of titles, or to get into society,
or in the vainer hope OF becoming gentle
men," His own title, which he faiied 10
escape, was imposed on him as condl-
ton of becoming solicitor general In 1878.
Ii he had been the son of a mushroom peer.
he would have been exempt. But the blood
of all the Harcourts and the Vernons was
such are the anomalies of our constitution
inadequate for the purpose.
