DECISION MADE
UPON OLD BARN
Its Removal Was No Eviction
A Reversal of Judge
Robinson.

In an action by landlord against
his tenant for rent the removal of q
barn from the demised premises by tine
| landlord without the consent of the
| tenant is held, on the evidence. not
to constitute an eviction, and, there
fore, no defense to the action.''
So reads the syllabus of a unanimous
opinion of the Supreme Court, written
by Justice Wilder and joined in by
Circuit Judges De Bolt and Lindsay
as substitutes for Chief Justice Ffear
and Justice Hartwel, whereby the
judgment of Judge Robinson is set
aside and a new trial ordered in the
case of R. w. Holt against Waialua
Agricultural Co., Ltd. A. G. M. Rob-
ertson and W. c. Achi for plaintiff (;
Castle & Wilmington and C. w. Ash
ford for defendant.
Holt sued for two instruments of
rent of 5000 each under lease from
him to the plantation company of 12,-
900 acres Of land. The defense was
that Holt, six or eight months before
the second instalment came due, re-
moved barn from the premises and
thereby performed an eviction. In the
court below the case was tried with
out a jury, judgment given for de-
PENDANT and a motion for a new trial
denied
While the appellate court admits the
doctrine that eviction is a bar to an
action for rent, it goes into the evil
dence to see if there was an eviction
and this is what it finds:
"The barn was small one and
an old one, and located in the midst
of dense growth of lantana. 1t was
removed by plaintiff without the con-
sent or knowledge of defendant some
time in February, 1905, by permission
of one who claimed to be a cotenant
of defendant The barn was an insig-
nifcant and minute part of the prem
ises demised. Defendant s possession
OI diI VI tHc ldHu IcdStu, over I-,OUV
acres in extent, was the same after as
before the removal of the barn. We
are of the opinion that the record dis
closes no evidence showing that the
acts of the landlord amounted to more
than mere trespass, if anything, and
that consequently the finding of the
trial court that there was an eviction
must be reversed
Defendant had conceded in the trial
court that it owed the first instalment
claimed. Therefore, in any event, the
exceptions would have to be sustain
ed Defendant S contention that there
was an eviction, apart from the re-
moval of the barn, by reason of a
Judgment against it in a proceeding
for summary possession instituted by
a third party, was overruled in the |
trial court and the record in that suit |
was not taken up on appeal. An at |
tempt to introduce it by stipulation
fled after argument does not commend |
itself to the court, consequently 1t
declines to discuss any other matters
than the question decided.
Justice Wilder opened court yester- |
day morning and adjourned it until
Monday at 10 clock.

Experts.
One Of the dangers OF democrausm
which this country has not wholly es-
caped IL a consequence Of the wide
spread assumption that the natural
equality between men signifies that
all men are equally able to do all
things. This view, it is true. has
been often borne out by the amazing
success of Americans, with no evil
deaf special training, in the discharge
Iof public duties. Much good work
has been done by men who have
been elected or appointed to positions
requiring great special skill, not be-
cause they had shown that skill, but
because they were eminent citizens
or useful party men or men OF assert
i've genius who forged ahead to the
work that their instincts rightly babe
them seek. AS the nation grows and
the work of officials becomes more
complex, there is increasing demand
in all departments for experts. In
response to this demand have come
the reorganization of the consular
service, the assemblage at Washing
ton of a great number Of scientific ex
iperts, the tendency in the post office
and other departments to leave com
petent servants undisturbed by shifts
of party power, and the recognition
everywhere that men in public occu
pations like those in private business
must be engaged and paid according
to their ability. To have this abilit,
they must be trained In their wori

table. They were happy and many

At the end of the table a young

in conversation? There was no rea-
SON why he should not There was
no one else to talk to her.
He helped her plate He was do
ing this when he was interrupted.
The young lady broke the silence.
The young man was evidently giving
her too much.
