oil past County Laws and will contin.
ue to say it OF all future County Laws.
Unless the Supreme Court of the
Territory of Hawaii has given out Sc
cret information that 1t intends to muir
der the County Law out of hand there
is no basis whatever for the conten.
ton that the County Law is invalid.
II may be attacked. Any law is liable
to attack. The people of Hawaii. how.
ever. should not act on the theory that
the Supreme Court decides questions
in advance, and SO far as the local
courts are concerned. they are
not the courts of last resort when
an Interpretation is sought Of
the Organic Act passed by Congress.
Therefore the person who refrains
from active work In the primaries and
the nominating conventions because Of
fear that the County Act may not be
upheld, IL making most unfortunate
error Be on guard at all times.
The duty OF the citizen Is to go for
ward in whatever work may come to
1and in carrying out the law. Don't
allow yourselves to be swerved from
duty by enemies of law.

Transit Speed
NOT As YET
Permanently Approved

Governor Carter stated this morning
that he had not as yet granted his final
approval Of the Rapid Transit Co. IS
system Of running Its cars at an in
creased rate Of speed, as provided for
by the new Rapid Transit speed law,
which provides that the Governor and
the superintendent of Public Works
must approve Of any schedule increas-
ing the speed, before It can be placed
into effect.
Before I left for my trip around the
island" said the Governor this noon,
The Rapid Transit people sought my
approval to allow them to run at al.
most any hpsed outside the city linn.
Its. refused to approve but l told
Sup. rintendent Holloway that as soon
az they had submitted system which
seemed proper to him, they could be
allowed to run in that system for the
time being. did this SO as to incon-
venience the public as little as pos
sible.
THE Rapid Transit Company has
submitted q system which Holloway
temporarily approved and on which
the cars are being run at present. II
, is not wholly satisfactory, however,
and some changes In II must he made
before ! can grant my permanent ap'
J proval. Accordingly to this system the
, cars can run twenty miles an hour
from Kapiolani park to the beginning
Of the prescribed city limits. The
area for this great speed is too extend
cd and II must be further determined
just where the cars can run at such
q speed. Before the approval is grant
ed Mr.. Holloway will take trips in the
cars to see how they run under this
system. We have at times for instance
been told that the cars never run al
more than twenty miles an hour or
Liliha street, but for all we know the,
may be running fifty"

BROWNS CANDIDACY.


Editor Evening Bulletin:--N sooner
than the announcement Of the consid.
Grafton Of Arthur NJ. Brown for the
Office Of Sheriff Of Oahu County was
made public than the Attorney General
was looking up men whom he thought
would be able to defeat him by manip.
ulation at the primaries and In the
convention. What time he could pos
sibly spare from hunting up possible
moot questions to get the County Act
declared invalid was spent In search
OF a man who would sacrifice himself
TO defeat Brown. Perhaps the trick
will be apparent before 1t is too late.
Brown is In the field and the bust
ness men and his hosts Of friends OF
all shades Of political opinion will in
sist on his running for the office he
filed with marked ability for five years
having gained his experience as mar
shal ana deputy marshal.
What right has the administration
or any oncial to actively or secretly
oppose stauncR and capable Republic
ans. for office?
Brown will run this election and
no scheming by men who are moving
heaven and earth to have the County
Act declared unconstitutional can pre-
vent the electors from choosing him
for the Office. understand that High
Sheriff Henry does not want to run an
election for the office Of Sheriff, but
be is ready to respond to the call of his
party II Brown withdraws, Of which
there is no possible chance for his
friends and the business men Of this
leland will insist upon his running
the election. His political enemies will
have all they can do to take care Of
themselves when the people get q
chance to participate actively In the
affairs OF this Territory.
am yours faithfully,
A VOTER.
