The deck is covered with an avn.

U. s. ensign, and flags Of various ma.
tions. Flags Of the signal code are
strung along the rail and up the gang
plank; every fitting of the quarter

GOOD POLITICAL JOB.

The purpose for which the assault
case of Captain J. +. Carter on Re-
porter Moore of the Evenin g
Bull letin was brought before the
Federal Grand Jury has been accom-
plished-an excuse for Carter.
The Bulletin has believed
from the outset that this was the
plan, and We cannot fail to compli-
ment the friends of the Captain for
their success in diverting the ma
chinery or American Justice to serve
disgraceful end-if 1t merit compli-
ment.
the paragraph in the Grand Jury
report dealing with the case means
this:
An officer of the United States
Navy, wearing the United States ma
val uniform-which is a protection
in itself as against the civilian-and
enjoying the further protection of the
United States Naval Reservation. can
assault reporter on his beat in the
regular performance of his duty, and
receive verdict manipulated by
prejudiced friends. of "Well done,
thou good and faithful servant"
The disgrace to American decency
and justice are too patent to require
extended argument.
The statement has been made that
when Captain Carter In fit of anger
called Reporter Moore liar, this was
the signal for fight, and the report
er should have proceeded to do battle
ON a naval reservation!
This claim brilliantly Eliminates
the cowardice of the assault. Had a
civilian, no matter what his provoca-
ton, struck United States officer in
uniform and in his Office, the vocabu-
larry of the officer and the service
would not have been large enough to
have described the horror of the
crime committed. We agree that NO
man has justification for assaulting
the uniform of United States off,
Ger, regardless of the character of the

atiye to an assault committed on n
Naval Reservation of the United
States located In Honolulu. In that
case we have no bill, believing that
the alleged assault was committed
under circumstances which would
lead a petit jury to return II verdict
OF not guilty.
Witnesses were examined by us
relative to an alleged violation Of the
Act of the Congress of the United
States of America. approved Febru-
AIRY Z, 1896, entitled:
IAN Act to prohibit prize-nghting
and pugilism, and fights between men
and animals, and to provide penalties
therefor, in the Territories and Dis
trict of Columbia"
We have heard testimony as to the
character of encounters which have
been had in the Territory since an
nexation.
While perhaps the contests held
may, technically speaking, be within
'hN iN''Vi VI 'ht h't' thts
have not been within its spirit.
AS far as we have been able to
ascertain, at no time has there been
any exhibition of brutality, nor have
the contests promoted or excited
gambling, more than does any other
athletic sport. or other events or
games dependent upon skill or
chance. We believe they have been
conducted in such manner as to
promote athletics within the Terri
tory. and until the character Of the
contests changes. we DO not believe
they should be interfered with.
The attention of this Grand Jury
has been called to the fact that the
United States Government in erect
ing the Leprosarium on the Island
of Molokai has employed as mecnan-
les and laborers persons who pay 20
per cent. of their wages 10 the per.
sons securing them employment. Nc
evidence has been presented to the
Grand Jury showing or tending tc
show that the amount of commission
thus paid has been taken by any Of
ficials of the United States. The mat
ter thus called to the attention Of the
Grand Jury has, however. directed
its attention to the fact that alien
laborers and mechanics are being EN-
ployed on public works of the United
States. who pay commission for the
securing Of employment, and this al
a time when citizen laborers of equa
efficiency could readily have been EN-
ployed, at no greater, and possibly
less. cost.
1t is respectfully suggested thai
wherever American citizens can bt
employed as laborers or mechanics
United States officials constructing
public works see that such citizen!
are employed.
We further respectfully sugges
that copies of this part of our report
be forwarded by the United States
District Attorney to such depart
