Rate Law Amendments.

The rate law does not go far enough.
The practice under it has already dis
closed the necessity for new amend

Such is the true method-the empirical
and tentative method-of securing
proper remedies for new evil.-Hon.

the new school building rs the Nc
Kinley High School would be guar
antee of permanencc that none can
gainsay. Through years of progress
and enlarged school houses to meet
the growing demands of an increas-
ing population, the High School of
Honolulu will always remain the Nc
Kinley School. and thus the name of
Mckinley must be more permanently
planted in the minds of the people
than in any other way. Though the
structure now building should in flu
ture years be replaced by one more
elaborate and imposing, 1t would still
be the Mckinley High School.
As time has passed with nothing
done this paper has been inclined to
favor the statue or Hawaiian- stone
shaft as the best solution of me-
mortal that must be adapted to a linn
tied amount of money.
The Mckinley High School propo-
sal satisfies all the natural demands
of n memorial, and particularly for
the man Mckinley. President Nc
Kinley had to struggle to gain his ed
ucation. lie appreciated the value
and the importance of the public
school, both as boy and as the First
! Citizen of the Republic. y William
McKinley's brother David was for 9
number of years resident of thin
city and during that time was fur
nishing william funds by which he
might secure better education
| President Mckinley more than any
| other President preached the doctrine
OF the love of the flag. And It WI
largely through his counsel that thC
flag has become permanently placed
above the public schools throughout
the length and breadth of the land
What's more, the developing High
School needs money for its library In
order that the pupils may have handy
sources of information.
There is no better purpose tC
which the Mckinley memorial funds
can be devoted. The institution Is
the highest-grade public school in
this Territory. which President Me
liinley brought under the American
flag.
No more fitting memorial has beer
suggested. Expended in the manner
proposed, the money will serve tn,
best interests of the city and the ma
tion as long as the public school anC
the nation survive.
Let the Mckinley memorial of Ha
wall be the Mckinley High School
with its Mckinley statue and McKin
ley library.

II Is evident that the work along

greatest secrecy in the matter, so as
to avoid any opposition to their plan.
Even now, after the matter has leak

the members OF the Anti-Saloon

to talk of the matter, and each one
passes the buck to the next.

Gdiuurns you will be fully occupied
with the trial of criminal cases. The
case of the United states v. Dillon
will consume -four or five days; the
Hirano cases, involving the importa-

ing admission to the United States,
will consume several days; the Har-
mon perjury case will probably con-
sumo three or four days; the Wynue

two weeks; the Rosenberg cases will
consume several days, and the Lee Sa

this brief enumeration of the many
cases pending you will see that the
time will be used up and that It will
be necessary for several cases to go
over to the April term. might men
ton, in passing, that the Grand Jury
will meet on February cath, and an
ticipate the return by IL of many in
dictments. The trial of these cases
will leave you no time whatsoever for
the consideration of civil matters
which are already pending, and
which will come along. l know you
have before you the Lumber Trust
case, in which there are about a
thousand pages of evidence to be con-
sidcred; the Pacific drcdger case, in
volviig some $4,000, with vast
amount of testimony; the Manchuria
case, involving 100000, where the
evidence is very voluminous, and the
Chiusa Maru case (by the way, sub
mitted over a year ago., where much
evidence was taken, and three or four
other admiralty cases either submit
ted or pending.
In short. the work of the court
here is such that 1t Is absolutely i'm
possible to be handled by one judge.
In view of the fact that the people
here have great respect for the
United States Court and get into
that court whenever It is possible to
do 80, something should ne done to
remedy the congestcd condition Of
the calendar.
| might mention, in passing, that
occasions must arise when IL is abso-
lutely necessary to have another
| judge. In the case of the United

| tate, determined some two years ago,
| it became necessary for counsel In the
