Perhaps the light regard in which
so many ordinarily truthful-and a
good many extraordinarily untruthtul
people hold the oath which they
take in court to tell the truth, tho
whole truth and nothing but the truth
is result of the careless way in which
it is usually administered. Generally
the court clerk pops up and rattles on
string of syllables all run together,
that might be anything from the gen.
eology of John Smith to recipe for
making raspberry (Olaa) jelly. The
victim stands up holds up his hands
and mumbles yes, or mods, or often
does nothing. And yet the idea of thu
law is that if he fails to tell the truth
on the stand after being thus Sworn, -
he commits a much graver offense
than if he just told plain, everyday
lie anywhere else.
There Is one clerk in the local courts
whose manner of administering the
oath might well be initiated by the
II 10 ~ a
United States District Court.
Murphy pronounces the words OF the
oath in slow and impressive manner,
as if they really mean something The
witness can understand what he says
without the help of an interpreter to
transpose the words into English, and
if he fails to tell the truth on the
stand, it is not because he does not
realize that such failure constitutes
perjury. Most of the other clerks
need to take lessons in elocution so
the witness can tell whether they are
administering the oath or choking
over mouthful of hot mush.

1t isn't often that an attorney has
the nerve to address the Court with
the plainness that characterized the
speech of. a certain lawyer who was
arguing a case before the Tax Appeal
Court week or so ago. 1t is probable
that the lawyer meant what he said,
but he didn't mean to say it, as was
evidenced by his frantic efforts to ex-
tricate himself from the predicament
! The lawyer had succeeded in wrapping
fabric of legal phraseology around
the members of the Board until they
didn't know whether they were afoot
or on horseback. Noticing their blank
looks and general air of bewilderment,
he said:
This point is as clear as anything
could be. In fact, there is absolutely
nothing to it. Anybody could under
stand it. But it is apparent that the
Court does not understand it,, 1t is
this way"
And then the burst of laughter from
those present in court and the aston
ished looks of the three members of
the Court apprised him of the break
he had made and he fell all over HIM
self trying to explain that he didn't
mean it.

The indictments set forth that Sto.

reports of battles that never occurred,
recommended their own friends, who
had lost battles, for decorations, and
surrendered the Port Arthur fortress
in spite of the fact that they had at
hand ample munitions for resistance.
All the crimes with which Stoessel,

FROM THE NEwSMAN's NOTES

Governor Carter is not making
friends among the Japanese accord
ing to one local authority One OF
them said yesterday: Governor Car
ter was simply making that Seattle
talk to make us believe he meant
what he said. We know that Gov
ernor Carter has no aloha for us and
that he has anti-Japanese feeling in
his heart. He is merely playing di-
plomacy with us. We know OF no
way we could become desirable citi-
yens when the United States Govern
ment, through the enactment OF the
immigration law, shuts us out of her
dominion Carter evidently wants to
prolong the so-called friendly feeling
between the United States and ia
ran, knowing full well that Hawaii
would first be attacked in time or
war. Aside from this, we are too pa
triotic to our country and loyal to
cur Emperor to become citizens OF
not only the United States, but OF
any other country"
There you have it. Carter is cuss-
ed by one side for being pro-Japan-
csc and not accepted as japanese in
good faith. That being the case, he
must be man without country.

The people living in the section OIL
Waikiki which lies above Ainahau ana
stretches as far as the boundary OF the
Kapiolani Park will soon be able to
take the record for keeping up a
strong and many-sided row from Mrs.
Atcherly and her following of kona-
ties, who commanded the attention OF
the public some years ago. The wal
kiki row started, as do nine-tenths OF
Hawaiian neighborly troubles, from a
dispute over water. In the territory
| described there are rice Cinnamon,
banana Cinnamon and duck Cinnamon
| There is also stream from when all
these three factions get their water.
Now the rice planters wanted water
only part of the time. The banana
planters wanted it most of the time
and the duck farmers wanted 1t all the
time. This started the row, as one
| faction would dam the stream In order
| to turn the water off or on to his own
section as the case might be. Then
the others would be disturbed because
they got either too much or too little
water and would break down the dam
Then when they in their turn mon
keyed with the water the other fac
ton would turn up and interfere witt
them. p
AS the result the entire Landscape
has been pastered with trespass signs
but this did not interfere with dow
hunters who went forth merrily will
their guns and dogs as soon as TIM
dove season opened. Then A. S. Cleg
horn made his entrance on the stag
by prosecuting the hunters and imme
diately the residents of the place tool
sides. n

Charles q. Dawes Good Advice @
Young Men In Business.

This Is hard world in business. II
always has been and always Will BE-
There are many good and generous
men In 1t. There are many who VIII
lend helping hand to you in your al.
yersity, but in the time OF need you
will not find them among the men
who tried to get you to embark ID
speculation with your little surplus,
and to sell you something which
would help you to easy money" BE
self-reliant. Make your own investi-
CATION into investments. When you
cannot, put your money in good
savings bank. Distrust the financial
demagogues as you distrust the 20
litical demagogue. Keep your hand
on your pocketbook as you travel life
first, to give always in proportion
TO your means to those who are poor
er: second, to hold from those who
would take through force or fraud
what you need for yourself and yours.
You will then, writes Mr.. Dawes In
the Saturday Evening Post, have your
hand where most OF the other fellows
have only their eyes. In this alone
you will have the advantage Of them.

SALT CELLAR OF LONG AGO.

This is medieval salt cellar" said

like castle, It Is solid silver and the
price--but what is the use telling the
price to you? Very magnificent, emf
In the middle age, you know. the SAT-
cellar was the principal table orna-
ment. Guests sat above or below the
salt as they were prominent or the
reverse. Where do you think you'd
have sat, Ell? Queer table manners
they had in those days. The fastidious
had individual knives, forks ana
spoons, but the common people ate
with their fingers. You helped your
self from the general dish with your
own spoon II you had one, but II you
were very, very fastidious you licked
the spoon clean first. The food was
queer--rich. rank food-swans. herons,
porpoises. garlic, verjuice, saffron.
There was mead and wine In fooQe
and usheTs stood about whose duty
1t was to lead to convenient couches
such guests as had dined too well.

continually striking for more pay. Inc
