that 1T will be an occasion for great

PIXIES PEAK CENTENNIAL.

During the last week of tho present
month there will occur at the foot of
Pixies Peak a centennial that must be
of great interest to every one in all
this mountain country. 1t will be the
celebration Of the centennial Of the
discovery by Zebulon Pike Of the tow
ering mountain which has been named
after him. Tho Pike journeys and dis
coveries in the early part of the past
century have always been regarded by
historians as one Of the most important
Of all the expeditions ever conducted
on this continent, second only to the
Lewis and Clark journeyings. To be
sure, portions of his itinerary were in
the old Spanish pathways, but still,
from the Spaniards the American peo-
pie knew very little of that country,
and of the mountains in what is now
Colorado they knew practically nothing.
Zebulon Pike, with the restless zeal
that has always distinguished the ex-
plorer, was probably the first of our,
race to see those majestic mountains,
and was certainly the first to give
the American public any satisfactory
account Of them. The celebration of
his discovery will be made in an elab-
crate programme. Distinguished repre-
sentatives of the Federal Government,
diplomats, historians, educators, mill

"STINGING REBUKE."

One OF the Idaho Mormon papers
says that in Bear Lake county Of that
State the Republicans and Democrats
are intending to fuse in order to ad-
minister ga stinging rebuke to Du-
bois'
In all the wide range of things which
were to be done to Dubois, and in all
the wide range of methods to be adopt
ed for his punishment never before has
there been such tremendous conjunc-
tion of forces for such an overwhelm-
ing purpose. Bear Lake county is in
habited almost entirely by Mormons
1t is the home county OF President
William Bulge, formerly OF that stake
Of Zlon-and now of the Logan temple,
where there is much marrying and Civ
ing in marriage. For years President
Bulge has carried the vote of Bear
Lake county in his ecclesiastical raj
ment. lie has given the vote and he
has taken away the vote according to
his pleasure-for it has been his pleas
ure to follow the instructions of the
church headquarters at Salt Lake City
Never III all his career as 8 political
boss has William Bulge given or per
mitted any one else TO give the vote OF
Bear Lake county to Fred T. Dubois
Fusion or no fusion, Republican victory
or Democratic victory-it has always
been the same; President William
Bulge has exercised his supreme power
in that county to prevent Fred It. Du-
bois from receiving therefrom any
political support. President Bulge does
not forget time when United States
Marshal Fred T, Dubois made Bear
Lake county little too hot to hold
President Bulge, and President Bulge
is "feeding fat an ancient grudge he
bears
Under these circumstances how on
earth Fred T. Dubois can receive ga
stinging rebuke" from Bear Lake
county no one but a Mormon scribe can
conceive-unless it Is the intention to
heap Goals Of fire upon his head by
giving to him the vote of that province

1t is stated that the military senti-

SHOOTS ENMITY,

The average veteran soldier of the
Republic, resident in Utah, would have
far more respect for Reed Smoot if he
would make fewer pretenses Of friend
ship even though he showed no addie
tional acts Of kindness toward the men
who saved the flag. 1T is nauseating
to the veterans OF the Civil war to
have some underling boosted into high
political place at this hour and to have
him 30 around the country meuthing
Of his love for tho men who preserved
the Union and kept the flag unsullied;
for. as rule, such orators offend rather
than compliment. They know nothing
of the sufferings, and they err In very
tone in asking for the reward and the
plaudit. That IS especially true when
the orator and legislator is ignorant
as In tho case Of Reed Smoot; and it
becomes more than ever particularly
annoying and nauseating in his case
when the old soldier realizes the
sentiment which prevailed among the
Mormon leaders at the time of the Civil
war, sentiment which was shared by
hood and which would be shared today
by him and openly expressed if he were
commanded by the hierarch whose
authority is higher than his own.
Smoot has had ample opportunity to
render kindness 10 the old soldier Of
this country He has utterly failed to
do so. He has dominated the State
appointments to Office, and he has
filed the places with henchmen, most
ly Mormons, who would perform his
bidding. The old soldier has been per-
mitted to limp his way through life
earning his bread in other toll, while
soft political positions have been ac-
corded to others. There are serving to-
day in Utah in public Offices fifty men
whose duties could be better performed
by intelligent old soldiers, who are
educated and experienced, than by the |
crude and callow political followers who
now draw the pay. Smoot could change |
this at word if he would do so. In |
his failure to recognize the old soldier, |
in the determination which he exhibits |
and in which Joseph Howell shows his |
own subordinate but sufficient share,
Reed Smoot disgraces the Republican
party Of the Nation, overrules tho order
Of the President of the United States.
and makes of the local Republican
party Of Utah tho foe instead of the
friend of the veteran of the Civil war,

allows, said Douthitt.
Adams wanted 10 know II the Super
yisors could have all the say as to the
Kapiolani park II 1t happened that the
majority Of the park commissioners
were also members OF the Board VI
Supervisors.
County Attorney Douthitt's opinion
en- the relations between the Kapiolani
park and the Board of Supervisors is.
in part, as follows:
Attorneys Opinion.
II will be seen from a reading Of the
County Act. that the Board OF super
visors Of each County is restricted In
its appropriations Of funds 70 County
purposes alone. IL the APPROPRIATED
is not for County purposes within tho
meaning OF the act. then the Board
of Supervisors has absolutely no au.
thority TO make such appropriations.
Letter Of the Law.
In other words, in order TO properly
ascertain the powers OF the Board of
Supervisors with regard TO the handling
and disbursing OF public moneys, u
strict compliance with the letter OF the
law must be observed by the Board. for
II must be remembered that the Board
Of Supervisors is acting in a hduciary
capacity.
1t is a well settled principle OF con-
struction OF grants by legislative
body to municipal corporations that
only such powers and rights can be
exercised under them as are clearly
compreheuded within the words Of the
act, or derived therefrom by necessary
Implication. regard being had to tbs
objects OF the grant.
A Delegated Power.
We must take into consideration that
the power OF the Board OF Supervisors
with reference to the disposition and
appropriation of public funds Is a del,
egated power, and being delegated
power, II becomes necessary TO adopt
a strict aud rigid construction, rather
than loose and pliable one.
Only Legal Claims.
II is specifically set forth In the
County Act that the Supervisors can
only make appropriations for legal
claims against the County. Now Il
must follow. that II, in any given In,
stance, there is no legal claim enforc'
ible against the County, then the Su.
pervisors would be violating their trust
II they should make appropriations fol
purposes which could never be made
the basis Of legal claim against the
County. 1t must not only be LEGAL
claim against the County, but 1t mus
be ENFORClBLE as such.
Park Is Territorial.
Therefore, the Board will readily SCI
that It can make no appropriation o.
public moneys unless the person To-
whose benefit II is made had a lega
claim, enforcible against the county
Kapiolani Park is a Territorial insti
tuition. II is regulated and goyerne'

To Test
COunty's Power In
Park Appropriations
WILL ARRANGE SUPREME COURT CASE

The oahu County Supervisors will
refer the matter OF the validity OF
County appropriations for the Kapio-
lani park TO the Territorial Supreme
Court for n decision. County Attor-
ney Douthitt, in an opinion requested
by Supervisor Large Il n. Adams
and rendered TO the Board OF Super.
yisors last evening says that the Coun.
ty OF oahu has no right whatever TO
appropriate funds for the Kapiolani
park. He says the park Is a Territorial
institution, under the control OF o
board Of commissioners appointed by
the Territory.
Last night the Supervisors listened
to Douthitt's opinion and, having u
great deal OF sympathy for the GAUGE
OF the park, decided to give the County
Attorney little time to think up sug-
gestions as to the method OF procedure,
thsn call a special meeting OF the
Board to settle on form OF test case
10 ascertain whether or not the SupeC.
yisors can give money to the park or
whatever else they desire 10 aid
II was suggested by Lucas, Adams
expressing agreement, that another at
torney should be called in the case,
In the matter of the test, as Douthitt
could not very we'll be expected 20 op-
pose his own stand In the matter.
Schools and Parks.
Douthltt. in explaining some points
in his written opinion to the Board,
declared that he appreciated the fact
that the Board OF Supervisors was
willing and anxious TO help out the
Kapiolani park with funds, and also the
public schools. So was he, for THAI
matter. He thought the parks and the
schools most worthy causes, Every
body. including all the members OF the
Board, said Douthitt. was anxious, II
possible. to do something to help the
schools and the parks. Douthitt was
the only man who made any remarks
In reference to helping the public
schools
Archer asked II Douthitt's opinion
affected the status OF the Hawaiian
band. Douthitt declared most emphat-
ically that It did not. The band was
distinctly County proposition.
Chairman Adams wanted very de-
tailed explanations from Douthitt as
TO his park opinion.
Douthitt explained that the members
OF the Board OF Supervisors were as
trustees. Their powers were delegated
powers. II was rule OF law that those
/ handling trust funds must confine
themselves within the law, strictly ia
the specification or direct implication
Of the law governing the handling ol
those funds. The power must exist In
the expressed words or the words Of
the law must contain the necessary
implication. ur
