Be it Resolved by the Senate of the
Territory of Hawaii:
That. whereas there is current news
paper report to the effect that the Presi-
dent of the United States IS being I'M
portuned to appoint some one other THAN
a resident and citizen of the Territory
of Hawaii to the office of Second Judge
of the United States District Court for
the Territory of Hawaii and also to the
office of United States District Attorney
for the District and Territory of Ha-
wall; and
whereas. While such manner of ap-
pointmept may-though it is by no
means coneeded-have been expedlent
and justified by conditions existing at
the time of the organization of TINS
Territory, such manner of appointment
is no longer justified, and there are
available among the members OF the
Bar of the Hawaiian Islands men com
petent to perform the duties of said
offices ably and honorably; and
Whereas, The Federal Government
has heretofore since the organization
of the Territory of Hawaii treated and
dealt with this Territory more and more
on the basis of State of the Union,
appointing to office therein citizens Of
the Territory and giving the Territory
rights similar to those enjoyed by the
States as to appeal and writ of error
to the appellate courts of the United
States; and
Whereas, Such distinction in favor of
the Territory of Hawaii has been and
is still ms fled hv the fact that at the
time of its annexation to the United
States the Hawaiian Islands had for
al out half century had a judicial
system organized on lines laid down by
the hest practice obtaining in those of
the United States following the com
mon law system and had its own judi
cial reports published in 1857 of decis-
ions rendered as early as 1S47, and at

Home Rule Resolution

all times the Hawaiian Judiciary and
the legal branch of the Hawaiian execu-
tive department have been administered
by trained men of ability and integrity,
supported by bar of equal ability and
integrity; and
Whereas, For over half a century the
spirit of American liberty and the prin-
ciples of American institutions and con-
stitutional government have steadily
grown in the Hawaiian Islands and pre-
dominated even during the Hawaiian
Monarchy, and for six years previous to
annexation the Hawaiian Republic had
a full-fedged government on American
lines; and
Whereas, The reasons above suggested
clearly distinguish the Hawaiian Terri
tory from other Territories of the Uni
ted States which either have enjoyed no
such judicial and governmental system
or have had it for only brief time or
have nad system distinctly different
from the American system; and
Whereas, The spirit of American gov
eminent and institutions favors giving
to the people as far as possible direct
control of their own local affairs and is
opposed to the appointment to local of
fee of men, however able, who are not
resident there;
Now, therefore, the Senate of the
Territory of Hawaii does hereby declare
its unqualified opposition to the appoint
ment of other than citizens of the Ter
ritorv to judicial, executive, or other of
fee within its borders;
And Be It Resolved, Further, That a
copy of this Resolution be sent forth
with to the President of the United
States, the Attorney General of the Uni
ted States and to the Presiding Officers
of both branches of the American Con-
gress.
1.-THE above resolution was introduced
in the Senate yesterday and referred to
the Judiciary Committee.

estimated that the counties should have

believe that We should turn over to
the different counties the matter of
the license inspection under the boards
of liquor license commissions. In this
bill we have an item of $4,000 for
the work of the license commissioners.
I am in favor of cutting that to $4,000
for the uses of the boards and let the
county sheriffs look after the matter
of inspection and the enforcement of
the liquor laws. I think this House
ought to declare itself one way or the
other on the broad issue of what we
are to turn over to the counties and
what to retain as part of the cen
trail system I therefore move that
consideration Of all these Board of
Health items be deferred and that the

morrow covering these points and turn

With a man on third and only one

being able TO even start for home.

hard hit ball as we have seen this
