TEX { 8 FOR THELeGIsLATORs.

Members Of the Legislature, now
made definite promises to
the people of these islands in their
platform and on the stump. On the
basis OF these promises the members
were elected. Chief among these
promises were pledges to pass laws for
Local Sef-Government,
Schools,
Homesteads,
which represent foundation principles
OF American government.
Members of the Legislature cannot
do better than take for their text the
following statement made by Presi.
dent Roosevelt in one of his public
speeches.:
at Is absolutely essential, " we arc
to have the proper standard Of public
life, that promise shall be square with
performance. A lie 10 no more to be
excused In politics than out Of politics.
A promise Is as binding on the stump
as of the stump, and these are two
facets Of that crystal. In the first place
the man who makes promise which
he does not intend to keep and does
not try to keep should rightly be
adjudged to have forfeited in some de-
gree what should be every mans most
precious possession--his honor"
Should Roosevelt's teachings not
seem sufficient let them turn to a few
words of wisdom from Tom Watson
when he said:
"Woe unto leaders who trick the
people and then boast Of Il! Woe unto
leaders who forget that the American
people have heart and conscience, con-
vletlons and a sense Of honorl Such
men may triumph for day, but only
for the day. Not for them are the
greater victories which ennoble this
human race"

cept the water. Yet in the face Of
these predictions this enterprise has
made good and kept a fair share Of
Hawaii's money in Hawaii, without in
juring local wholesalers or retailers.
The prospect for a distillery woult

dustry furnishes a bye.product tina
can be put to good use and the nativ,
plants offer a source of spirits tina

abroad. It is true that few have giver

The idea Of the Representative was
to facilitate business. The appropri

In the course Of time have to visit the
settlement, and he did not want tC
see q lot of people, going along with
the committee, who had no right Wis
iting the settlement and who simply
went to laugh at the unfortunates.
Coelho spoke In both English ant
Hawaiian. This started comment
among a few OF the members. The
idea seemed to be that, since the Gov
eminent paid for an Interpreter, the
official translator should do all the
double talking. Coelho did not look
ut II In this manner. II he wanted tC

he had a right to do SO; he had al

Said Speaker Knudsen: II thinl
that in the past the members have

nothing in the rules to prevent the
custom"
Fernandez suggested that the inter
prefer was sworn to properly inter
pref and II was not necessary for tn,
member to do his own interpreting.

Back To Hospital

Porto Rican who was given a shelter
In the Police Station because 1t was al

to the Home this afternoon.
Rev. Father Valentin was down at
the Police Station this morning, and
after an interview with High Sheriff
Henry visited the Porto Rican in his
cell. He knows Fernandez for he has
visited him regularly at the Home for
lncurables, and he spoke to him this
morning in plain language. According
to Father Valentin the Porto Rican
himself is responsible for his position.
II is true that he was accused OF steal

that was no reason why he should have
left the Home. Father Valentin obtain

made for him there and that he would
behave with resignation and due re-
gard to the rules and regulations Of

DR.. Sinclair and conferred with him
about the case. The doctor, of course.
has no objection to take Fernandez
back but he really has no place for
him. He would, however. do what he
could to admit him sometime during
the afternoon.
High Sheriff Henry was thoroughly
aroused over the case. which Is by no
means an isolated one. Numbers OF
times the Station House has been the
refuge Of sick and destitute people but
he does not propose to turn 1t into a
general hospital. OF course the Homes
and Hospitals Of Honolulu are In q
way public institutions. inasmuch as
they receive money from the Territory.
but this does not mean that they are
compelled to receive people when there
Ia no room for them. Fernandez was
at the Home for Incurables for some
time and left Of his own free will. He
was taken back to the Home for Incur
ables at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
