AGAINST
M'STOCKER
AFONG ESTATE WINS FIRST DE
CISION IN SUIT FOR A $4,000
CLAIM.

Judge De Bolt this morning handed
down a decision in the matter of Frank
B. McStocker VS.. the estate of Chun
Along, deceased, and S. NJ Damon,
garnishee The decision is as follows:
This is an action of assumpsit
whereby plaintiff seeks to obtain Judg-
ment against defendant as Admins
traitor of the estate of Chun Along, de-
ceased, for the sum of $76,4S1,52.
plaintiff also alleges that Samuel
M. Damon is the agent, factor and trus-
tee of defendant and said estate, and
has in his possession, custody and con-
certain property, certificates OF
stock and effects belonging to defend
ant and to said estate; and thereupon
requested and caused process of gar
nishment to issue against said Samuel
M. Damon as garnishee herein.
Defendant now moves that the gar
nishment of the garnishee be dismiss
ed on the grounds that defendant as
administrator of the estate of deceas-
ed person and is sued as such, and that
the goods, effects and property thus
attempted to be secured under said
garnishment, if any, belong to defend
ant as such administrator
"Garnishment is regarded as essen
TALLY statutory remedy, and its pur-
pose is to apply the debt due by third
person to the defendant in judgment
to the eXtinguishment of the judgment,
or to appropriate effects belonging to
the defendant in the hands of a third
ment, and to the end that such prop
erty or effects may not be dissipated or
pass beyond the reach of bona fide
claimant This is in accord with JUS
tice and necessity in such cases that
fall within the reason of the statute.
Such being the sole purpose and design
of the statute in such cases, is there
any sound reason or necessity for its
application to debts due the estate of a
deceased person where no such reason
exists?
Whatever judgment plaintiff may
recover in the case at bar will, no
doubt, be satisfied in full if the estate
is solvent and only in pro rata with
other like claims if the estate is insol.
vent, regardless of the garnishment.
'Thus, it appears that the statute
has no application to debts due an es.
tate The garnishment of such claims
can serve no useful or proper purpose
and is calculated to interfere with one
of the most essential duties of the ad.
ministrator, namely, that of collecting
the claims and reducing to possession
the property of the estate of deceased
persons.
Blackstone informs us that wher
the reason of the law ceases, the law
itself ought likewise to cease with it
| (Vol. l, p. 61.)
"The motion is granted. the garnish'
ment is dismissed and the garnishee il
discharged.
81. T. DE BOLT, First Judge"
A. G. M. Robertson appeared fol
plaintiff and C. H. Olson for defend
ant.

The Honolulu Baseball League at it's
meeting at Ais this afternoon will en-
dorse the proposition to bring a picked
team of the Pacific Coast League here
to play a local team,-at least the di-
rectors of the Honolulu League who
are here have expressed themselves
satisfied with the proposition offered,
and at San Francisco a similar express
sion has been given.
The teams will probably be here in
November. 1t is planned to play six

each. At this rate, it is thought the
expenses of the trip would be easily
paid with considerable margin.

AssoINe A CANDIDATE.

The difficulty the Republicans have
had in getting some one to take their
nomination for the mayoTalty is a
pretty fair indication of the timidity
with which the available men view the
prospect of running for the office. Take
it from one end TO the other, the list
of men who have been urged to make
the run reads like Republican poll
list in a national election. All the old
familiar names are there; and good
many new ones who were singled out
and approached" probably because it
was supposed they we're too innocent
TO suspect the job that was being ar
ranged.
Some of the names suggested are
very good ones: some of them repre-
sent ability, respectability. sound bust
ness Judgment; a few stand for honor
able public service. good citizenship
and Willingness to make a sacrifice for
the community. All of them were con-
sidered because they represented-not
the Smoot machine, which seeks TO I'M
load the nomination on them-but be-
cause they would serve to give the
impression that the machine had moth
ing to do with the nomination.
Curious. isn't it, that the men who
really control the Republican party
here. who absorb the emOluments OF
office and pull the wires from behind
the federal screen, are anxious TO get
a candidate who will not be recognized
as their special and particular friend

impossible the conflict with Germany
that was impending before the Algeci-
ras conference; his alliance with ia
pan renders impossible any combina-
ton of powers, at least during his
reign. which could imperil Japan's ma
tional life The strength OF his navy,
backed by his own amiable personality
and diplomatic responsiveness, forbids
any thought of coalition strong
enough to threaten Britain's imperial
dominion at any place on the globe.
Although he has little more constitu-
tional power. If as much real voice in
an executive sense, as the president of
this country. he maintains place
unique among reigning sovereigns be-
cause he has good, sound, common
sense and a real desire to preserve the
peace.
Regarding his calmness, his equanim-
ity, admiring his unimpaired digestion
after years of rather giddy enjoyment
of the flesh-pots, the speculative mind
delights to think of what would hap
pen to the British people If they could
substitute our own Theodore for AL
bert Edward as a ruler. OF course, 1t
is sheer speculation to imagine such
thing, because no Briton could ever be
anything like Roosevelt. but the idea
! is something of a diversion in these
dreary days of political fairy tales.
Fancy Roosevelt in charge of the

would inspire as soon as his CONVERSE

staid old chancelIories would wait for

| There would be some limitations to

tempted to set aside the laws of the
British empire TO meet his own views
as to what the law ought TO be. the
joke would end. Up to the limit of his
constitutional rights he would have all
the difference imaginable. but the mo-
ment he set his foot over the line. as
he is wont to do frequently in his own
realm. there would be trouble in car
load lots, all of it consigned to the
ruling sovereign.
King Edward may be a little slow
though they do say he was the crack
sprinter of all the swift boys in his
day: he may be conservative and too
ing British custom and generating the
charter of his people which of itself
is proof that he is not up to date; but
there is a certain attractiveness about
the way i'm which he attends to his
own business and gets results. No fuss
no fireworks. no sensational speeches
no threats of using all the forces of the
empire legal and armed, no denuncia-
ton of private citizens or unpleasant
comment on legislators and judges
Nothing but a king who knows his
business and goes on about it; a gen.
tleman who has a becoming regard fol
the conventions of good society and
prefers a top hat and plain clothes tC
less conventional if more picturesque
garb Contemplation of him almost
reconciles one, even an ardent Ameri'
can. to the notion that a king is not g

the job properly.
