has been ready and willing to assume
charge Of the criminal cases i'm the Cir
cult Court, and the grand jury as well.
Although it would be impossible to ef-
ficiently dispose of all the criminal
business now ON the calendar with our
present staff, still we would be willing
to dispose of such amount of the busi-
ness as our Office could handle.
Il realize that according to the de-
cision of the Supreme Court in the case
of Castle VS. the Secretary of the Ter
rtory, reported in the 10th Hawaiian
Reports partially constituting the Coun-
ty Act, the Attorney General has the
general supervision of all criminal
prosecutions throughout the Territory.
MY idea is, that if the Attorney Cen
erals Department is desirous of pre-
pairing indictments and presenting
criminal cases to the grand jury, then
such department should also prosecute
the indictments found by it, so that
there would be no divided authority or
responsibility In other words, i'm Or
der that the criminal business should
be properly disposed of, it would be
necessary for either the Attorney Gem
control of such cases, including their
presentment to the grand jury, the pre-
paration of indictments thereon, and
the conduct of the trial in the Circuit
Court thereof, or that the County At
torney should have such complete con-
troll.
while I do not concede that the de-
cision i'm the castle case, above quoted,
is decisive of the rights and powers Of
the Attorney Generals Departn. ent and
the Department of the County Attor-
ney, as to prosecutions i'm the Circuit
Court and the finding of indictments
therein, yet in order that the two de-
partments may work harmoniously, and
realizing that justice might suffer as
result of a conflict as to authority and
further realizing that as present con-
stituted, your department has a staff
sufficiently large to handle and cope
with the class of cases you refer to in
your letter, I am inclined to view with
favor your suggestion.
Il would say, in passing, that it has
been and now is the desire, as far as
know, of the Board of Supervisors, to
render me every assistance, and allow
me a staff large enough to properly
conduct all of the criminal and other
business that might devolve upon the
County Attorney under the County
Act; and l do not believe as you seem
to indicate, in your letter, that the
County authorities would object to the
further incurrment of expense, if such
incurrment became necessary to the
proper administration of this Depart
ment. H7SqITH
In future, as far as regards the
criminal business of the County, I will
assume complete control over all Grim
inal prosecutions in the Police Court,
as well as all cases before the Cir euit
Court on appeal. 1 beg to remain, re-
spectfully yours,
"E. A. DOUTHITT,
County Attorney, County of Oahu"

WHY THE ATTORNEY
GENERAL PROSECUTES
tContiLued from rage oneA

this work when the attorney general
interefered, under the Castle decision
Il have considerable doubt as to
whether that decision goes so far as to
nullify the county acts declaration that
county attorneys shall be the prose-
cutors, but it did not appear advisable
to hinder the administration of Justice
by contesting the matter and l al
lowed the present arrangement without
making any fight over it,-especially as
the attorney general had a staff of
assistants and I should have had to
put Oahu county to expense to get
them for my office.
1t is said that as a legal point the
question may be raised this term, by
objections to the authority of other
deputies of the attorney general than
the county attorney acting as prose-
cutors.
The following correspondence show
ing the arrangement passed between
the two departments:
Honolulu, october 9Th 1905
Hon. E. A. DOuthitt, County Attorney
for the County of Oahu, Honolulu,
r. H.
'Sir:-It has come to my attention
through public prints that severe criti-
cism has been made of this Department
by reason of your intended handling of
the criminal prosecutions in this Cir
cult at the pending term of Court.
That criticism seems to arise primarily
from the objection by certain County
authorities to the further incurrment of
expense in the administration of your
office as County Attorney.
1T was sincerely hoped by this De-
partment that your assumption of the
burden of criminal prosecutions and
the consequent decrease in the amount
of work required of this office would
result in its additional efficiency.
This Department is charged by law
with the responsibility of criminal
prosecutions and it neither desires to
shirk the labor of it nor shift the re-
sponsibility to the County Attorneys
Il would sincerely regret if by any
arrangement made with you you were
to be hampered in the administration
of your County affairs, and / therefore
have come to the conclusion that this
Department will continue in the prose-
cution of all committal cases before the
Circuit Court and will ask at your
hands alone the appearance before that
Court in criminal appeals from the
District Court of Honolulu.
This is not intended, and hope you
will not so receive it as discourteous to
you or your office. But feel that the
eXingencies of the case require that
criminal prosecutions be handled in the
manner indicated. have the honor to
be, sir, yours respectfully,
"E. c. PETERS,
First Deputy Attorney General"
Following this on the same date was
letter from Peters quoting the Su-
preme Court decision in the County
case and adding that this department
is of the opinion that it has entire
charge and control of all the criminal
prosecutions throughout the Territory
of Hawaii, and will assert that author
Iity generally as to all County attorneys
throughout the various counties of the
Territory of Hawaii"
County Attorney Douthitt's reply was
as follows

ney General, Territory of Hawaii.

 Dear Sir:
 "Referring to the case of H. A.

 According to this Bob Gilks wired Farrel that he had accepted Kings terms five days before the telegram of Mr. Amerine. This was two months ago, and the astute MT. Farrell has just discovered his mistake"
 He is about as swift as the average telegraph messenger boy.
 Since then the National Commission King to Montgomery. Now comes Farrell with his long losth telegram and says that the commission don know It's business.
 President Amerine will send in a long document today. for there are two sides to the case, and make fight on it. but it. is pretty well settled that if FarrelIs ruling goes with the commits sion, King goes to Shreveport. In that event Durrett himself will work in the outfield, and if he shows anything like his oldtime form, Kin will not be so greatly missed though he is undOubted iy one of the fastest ball players in the South.
