THE FLEET AT HAWAII.

II is good to haze our peaceful war fleet visit
the Hawaiian Islands. Sentiment ana hlstorcai
associations both make 1t eminently fitting. For
orr interest in those islands is Of ancient date,
and the actual prospective attitude Oh, our
navy toward them has more than once deter
mined their destiny. After the futile ventures
of Gaetano, of Cook of Vancouver and OF Bara-
noff il was reserved for Americans to estaD-
lish ths first close and permanent relations with
the islands and the first treaty of friendship,
commerce and navigation" ever made by the
islands was with the United States Several
times thereafter Hawaii was rescued from dail-
ger of European spoliation by the mere lntlma-
ton of the possible activity OF the American
navv-in the days when 1t was not consdered
wicked for TO have navy coml'arapie Win
those of other powers and commensurate with
our needs Nor should we forget the honorable
and beneficent part which our navy played in
savinr the islands from reactionary despOtism
and anarchy and in protecting their rising re-
nublicanism or the generous tender OF hospital
ity TO our fleet which the insular commonwealth
made when we were confronted by the needs Oh
warfare ten years ago.
It would be pleasant if it were practicable to
have the feet remain at Honolulu until August
10 then TO celebrate the tenth anniversary OF
the actual transfer of Hawaiian sovereignty 10
tho United States and OF the raising of the
American flag over the Islands in token Thereon.
Rut most TO the purpose will it be TO have fhs
visit yindicate and stimulate the undertaking
of the Improvement Of Pearl Harbor so as to
meet the needs of our feet and our commerce.
Twenty-one years ago that splendid harDor was
acquired by us through lease. At that time ns
possession had long and earnestly been desired
and il was deemed of urgent Importance tnat
we should Immediately transform it into naval
and commercial station. But twentyone years
have passed and the work Is not yet fairly be-
gun. though happily at last provision for 1t has
baen made It ought TO have been finished at
tbis time. so that our great fleet could be enter
tanned there. But, af least, energy and expedl-
ton should now so far atone Tor neglect as 10
make the harbor ready before another sueh Meet
shall be sent Oh another such voyage

THE SHANE OF PORTUGAL.

In at least one respect Mr.. Franco Is vindi-
Gated. The chief opposition to him as Prime
Minister of Portugal was manifested ON account
of his financial reforms. 1t was denied that
any such corruption existed as that which he
declared and he was denounced as libeller of
his country and It's honOred statesmen. Even
dsinterested and impartial persons hesitated to
credit his reports Of wholesale peculations, Of
men holding half a dozen richly paid but do
nothing Offices and Of officials drawing salaries
for years in advance When at last he was
forced out Of Office there was widespread feel
ing that he had been something Of sensation
aist and muck-raker
Now, however, his charges are made good.
There is published Il long list Of mobiles, cOur-
tiers generals and others who received Illegal
advances from the state treasury. Three gen
erals of the army are said to have received $780,
coo each, while the Minister to China, whom
Mr. Franco recalled, drew twenty years ad-
vance salary! Truly thrifty diplomat, who
practically discounted the need OF a pension
system i'm the civil service. 1t would be inter
esting to know what his expectation Of life
would have been estimated at by conservative
actuary The chances are that he was drawing
his pay in advance for life and something mere.

THE POLICE BUDGET.

Police Commissioner Binghams requests for
1909 mingle stern necessity, sweet reasonable
ness and the plain, ordinary salary boost The
proposed additions to the pay of the Commits
sioner three of his deputies the chief surgeon
and four chaplains probably represent frac-
ton of the usual margin which Is bid for but
never expected. If the proposed beneficaries
would only agree TO contribute this velvet
to fund for the maintenance Of a secret de-
tective force. they might find a large body of
citizens ready to plead their case before the
Board of Estimate. Should the desired
100000 be added to the fund for incidental
expenses however. there would, so far as we
can see, be no warrant for such philanthropy.
Three demands are worth hearkening TO. The
SEQ additional patrOlmen are sorely needed, as
General Bingham has reiterated. 1t is Ia
mentable that the present force of more than
eight thousand men cannot satisfactorily pO-
lice the city, even when aided by thousands
of private watchmen and detectives; but as
there is prospect Of an early and thorough
regeneration Of the system. quantity must do
the work of quality. The effort to secure
eleven more police captaincies is clearly in the
direction of improving the character Of the
service, for the creation Of these posts would
enable the Commissioner to add eleven honest,
competent men to roll which sadly cries for
expurgation. Eleven captains of the right sort
In the right places might stir things up we'll
past the rolling point. But will Little Tim
and his friends encourage this petition? Gen
eral Bingham may count himself lucky If these
dauntless foes of 'police extravaganza and
"one man rule" accept so much as his invita-
ton to relieve all regular policemen of cer-
ica duty This programme would materially
augment the patrol ranks. while presumably
simplifying the departments record keeping.
Neither result appeals strongly to Little
TIM but the call for $4,000 wherewith to
furnish the Police Headquarters may
soften the rigors Of his economy.

THE POOR OLD FATHERS,

And here comes Erving Winslow again in
the name of the Anti-Imperialist League
cUius narirna pGrs est-condemning Mr.. Taft
and supporting Mr.. Bryan on the perennially
verdant issue of the Philippines. and Incl
dentally reaffirrning belief in the Constitution
of the United States and denying that 'either
'-the President or Congress can govern any
person anywhere outside the Constitution
Poor old Constitution, And poor old Fathers
Of i. who while the ink was still fresh on
that much abused document did so many,
many things which they could not do. There
WAS jefferson. for example. one Of the po-
litical patron saints of the Mr.. Bryan whom
Mr. Winslow supports in the sacred name of
anti-imperialism. jefferson, according TO Mr..
Winslow. could not govern any person any
where outside of the Constitution. And yet
jefferson did that very thing. He governed
thousands of people in Louisiana for long
time both personally and through his agent,
Claiborne, without the slightest regard for the
Constitution. but entirely outside that instru
nent and specifically with '.all the powers
heretofore held and exercised by the Coy
.,ernor General and Intendant of the Prov
ince--that is. under Spanisi: monarchical
law And Congress- led by Randolph of Roa-
noke sanctioned and authorized the doing of it,
Again there were Monroe and Jackson, dear
fc the heart of Mr. Bryan, whom Mr. Wlnslow
supports for his unsulled anti-imperialism
They governed the people of Florida for years
entirely outside the Constitution, specifically
denying TO them the fundamental provisions
of .he Bill of Rights. and in that conduct they
were supported by Congress. Then there was
Gouverneur Morris, who drafted that part oil
the Constitution bearing upon the subject OF
the government of territories, who declared
that he always thought that we had a right
80 govern territories we pleased OUTSIDE
the Constitution. And there was Daniel web
ster whom most Americans remember as the
.t,reat Eypounder' of the Constitution, but
rborp Mr. winslow doubtless regards as a
horrid ,nylerialist and jingo who argued before
the S,,,,reme Court of the United States-and
en- the argument won his suit-that territory
}efora il was erected into a state might be
governed by Congress entirely outside the Con-
s4i.ution and laws of the United States. And
then there is Alaska. which according 10 a
distinct declaration of the federal courts is
still. or. at any rate. was. down TO ten years
ago. .outside the Constitution" and governed
outside that instrument

THE RIGHT WAY.

Abiding to the preparations for vigorous
and thorough campaign, Mr. Hitchcock. chair
man Of the Republican National Committee said
at Chicago yesterday: I'VE want to show the
people that we are at work and mean business.
There is not state that will be neglected ;
mot a state that VIII be abandoned to the
'other party" That is precisely the right kind
of talk and it comes at the right time. There
are so many signs of promise for the Repub-
lican ticket and the expectation OF MIR. Taft
election is so general that it would be easy to
cultivate feeling of confidence which would
have the semblance and to some extent the ef-
feet Of Indifference. Republican leader VINO
should act as if he considered the contest u
walkover would be contributing to make it
something very different from that.
1t is not prudent, indeed 1t is not even rea-
sonabIe, to assume from present agreeable lndl-
cations that Mr. Bryan will be unable to make
q strong appeal to vast number Of voters. He
can surely be defeated. in our opinion, by work
ing zealously to give Mr. Taft the victory, and
the wise thing to do is to fight as hard from
the beginning to the end Of the campaign as If
If were a forlOrn hope. Moreover, however
large the majority Of electoral votes may be.
none of them will be superfuOus. The Repub-
lican triumph ought to be overwhelming. for
Immediate satisfaction and future security. Mr..
Hitchcock has lost time In disclosing just the
qualities which he suppos i to possess when
he was put in charge. He deserves cooperation
of the same quality his own leadership, which
is equivalent we hope and believe. to saying
that he Will have 1t from start to finish.
