FOUND AN ANCIENT
BILL OF SALE
MAUI CHIEFS BOUGHT A SCHOON-
Err Fob SANDAL WOOD IN 1921
AND THE RECORD SURVIVES.

Governor Carter this morning was
telling Librarian Lydecker of the
Board of Archives, that he was read
ing last night a book which gave an
account of early matters in Hawaii
and had been struck in an account
of sale of a schooner to one of the
Maui chiefs for so many piculs of san
dial wood in 1921.
A few minutes later Librarian Ly-
decker was showing the Governor the
original bill of sale for that trans
action which he, singularly enough,
had run across in his exhaustive re-
searches into the masss of documents
which he is now putting in order.
The bill of sale is written on paper
of just the same kind that is found to
have been used by Captain George
Vancouver the British Royal Naval
explorer, in his communications with
King Kamehameha. or as Vancouver
spelt 1t a hundred and more years ago
"Tamaahaah" and the inference is
strong that it is probably a part OF
some present of writing paper which
the great explorer may have made to
the early kings. The document sets
forth the exact conditions OF the sale
of the schooner and bears out exactly
the truth of the story which the
governor had met IN his reading.

WANT TEACHERS JOBS.

Teachers do not appear to be shun-
ming the prospect of the service in the
Hawaiian schools, as has often been
stated. Besides applications that go
directly from the mainland to the Su-
perintendent of Public schools, two
were received at the executive office
last week. One of these is from a lady
in Hokah, Mimi, who seems to be UNI

first pass a civil service examination

wishes to know if school-teachers' posi-

Pacific
Heights Sale
Set Aside
SUPREME COURT SUSTAINs OR
DER DIRECTING A RESALE OF
THE RAILWAY PROPERTY.

The Pacific Heights railway will have
to be sold again. The Supreme Court
this morning gave unanimous deci-
sion sustaining the order of Judge Rob-
inson, which set aside the former sale
partly on the ground that the price
was grossly inadequate. The property,
which is said to have cost $4,000 and
was bonded for $4,000, was sold under
foreclosure for ST. 100. Robinson held
that under a resale in partitions in
stead of in one lump a vastly greater
sum could be obtained The purchaser
was the Rapid Transit Co.
The Supreme Court, in an opinion by
Chief Justice Frear, holds that mere
inadequacy of price would not be suftt-
cient to warrant setting aside the sale,
but that the other circumstances JUS
tify the order of the circuit judge The
syllabus explains the attitude of the
higher court as follows:
"A judicial sale may be set aside be-
fore confirmation for such gross made
quacy of price as shocks the conscience
or raises a presumption of unfairness,
but not for mere inadequacy unless ac-
companied by other circumstances such
as fraud, accident, mistake, etc. Whe-
Their such a sale should be set aside or
confirmed is largely a matter of sound
judicial discretion and a decision by
the trial judge in a case of this nature
should not be reversed unless clearly
erroneous"

The election is approaching
and throughout the State, in ev-
cry county and in nearly every
precinct, the voters have been
reminded of the uncertainties of
the returns under the secret bal
lot system. Dissatisfaction has
arisen over all the State. A few
weeks ago we published a speech
delivered by Hon. ]. F. Mont
gomery, of t h is place, setting
forth why it was better to stick
to the viva voce way of voting.
We hope that the voters of Adair
and ajoining counties will agree
with Mr.. Montgomery and vote
for the amendment going back TO
the days of honesty.

The assassination of lark Bolen.
a peaceful citizen, of Middles-
borough, few days ago, reveals
the fact that the better element
OF that city and vicinity has been
living in fears and that this crime
is so revolving as to arouse and
unite all the lovers of law and
order in that part of the country.
The slayer of Mr.. Bolen is a
member of one of the strong
families in the government of
that city and whose record has
many dark spots, the majority of
them being engaged in the sale
OF liquor and conducting the bust
ness on a low order. The Balls
are men of wealth and their pow
er over that section is no small
matter to combat. The criminal
history of Middlesboro, if given
to the world in truth and full
ness, would record so many foul
and bloody deeds as to prove a
serious obstruction to the BUSH
ness development of that part of
the State and fill every true Ken
tuckian with shame and regrets.

lessness in that part of the state
has come. The Law and Order
League, OF that city, numbering
over two hundred, as a great
power for good, but it has a
powerful task to perform. It's
work is not only beset w it h
dangers, but, of necessity, must
be long and continuous. It has
come to us that the Ball family
has almost had their own way
that their desperateness has been
dreaded and through fear of the
good people of Middlesboro have
patiently endured until Bolin was
shot down in cold blood. That
crime has aroused them and
united effort for the right will
finally succeed. A few bad men
can ruin any section and a few
such sections can destroy or SER
iously impair the good name and
prosperity of a State. Kentucky
ought to use more rope, and put
fewer in prison for the murder of
man. The prison does not have
the terrors Of death, it does not
protect society as it should from
the cold blooded murderer. Too
much latitude is allowed the
juries in the exercise of sympa-
thy. If the next Legislature will
revise the law and take the op-
ton from the juries in murder
cases of giving life sentences for
murder, there will be more just
ice melted out and fewer crimes
committed. The law should fix
the punishment and the jury de-
termine the degree of crime. A
life sentence is not equal to death
and no legislature or jury or any
other power can make it so.
When the law, the Legislature,
lakes the responsibility of hang
ing murders and only asks the
jury to.determine the degree of
crime then our commonwealth
will enter a new era in the super
sion of crimes.
