The JURY And SUGAR STOCK.

Disapproval of the jury system
comes natural to an element of hui
manity that leans toward govern
mcnt by Il dictatorship.
Every system devised by the hui
man mind has its faults, but the
failure of a Honolulu jury to con-
Wet few men against whom n
charge was made so clear as to JUS
tify directed verdict, Is no more
cause for refusing man the right
Of trial by jury of twelve men then
the moderate movements of n Re-
public warrant the establishment OF
q monarchy.
The verdict of the jury In the riot
case just closed In the Circuit Court
Is more the fault of the manner of
drawing the jury and the objections
allowed In the selection of jurors
than of the ancient and very righte-
Gus and honorable system of trial by
jury.
Community respect for the meth

cd when the ownership of share
OF stock in any sugar plantation is
REGARDED as ctcrnally warping the
ability OF man to draw n right con-
clusion from the law and the evil
dence, when the defendant is charg-
cd with having wronged a particular
plantation. This feeling Is accen-
uatcd when the ownership of sugar
stock by some relative is looked
upon ms exercising the same damn
Ing influence.
Under the practice h" which the
jury In the riot case was drawn, no
man should be allowed to SIT ON tho
bench in this Territory II he owns
a share of sugar stock or such stocks
are owned by his wife, father, sister,
brother or cousin.
Tho riot verdict was reached on
the issue Of whether II Is proper to
stand with those who shout ,"To hell
with the plantations" or those con-
WINGED chat some should be allowed
to live. That's the long and the
short OF It. And It is significant of
community sentiment that jury Of
non-sugar stock owners split even,
To charge that the privilege OF
trial by jury and the necessity for II
unanimous verdict to secure con-
ylction must bear the responsibility
for failure OF justice and warrant
an overthrow of the jury system is
TO voice the opinion of selfish dig
archs or complain and criticise sim
ply because that is the easiest thing
TO do.

MAY NOT ADOPT
AUTOMATIC, SYSTEM

Unless the new directors will be
satisfied with smaller profits and
considerable expenditure OF money,
and feel that we will have 1000
subscribers In the future in place OF
1000. the business will be operated
under the present SYSTEM" said
George II. Carter this morning when
approached regarding the possible
adoption Of the automatic system
now under consideration, and on
which Gartley made a favorable re-
port.
Mr.. Carter said that by placing
the wires underground in cables
and making modern improvements
In the present system, II will prove
very satisfactory In case the auto
matte Is not accepted. Il will prac-
tically reduce the present telephones
and equipment to the scrap heap,
and 1t is largely a question Of what
could be realized by the sale OF this
material before the buying OF new
equipment could be considered. The
matter will be settled at the next
meeting of the directors.

The age OF AVIATION.

On every side the signs multiply
that we are bordering on the age
Of aviation, Each day brings some
new incident of mans success In
conqnering the problem long be-
lieved impossible.
An announcement OF national
exposition of air craft TO be held in
Boston next year was coincident
with Congress adjourning a day TO
witness the flight Of the Wrights'
aeroplane, and the assembly of aero
nauts at Calais TO await favorable
conditions for flying across the Eng
fish channel. Since then the Wrights
have oustripped their own excellent
record With their aeroplane, and.
although the fight across the chan
mel ended when the airship was
twelve miles out, the men engaged
In the experiment are by no means
disheartened, and any day we may
expect to hear of the airshlp reach
ing its English destination

est, the manufacturers have come
forward with advertisements prom

Not the least significant OF devel-
opments along this line is the en-
dowment of chair of aviation at
the University of Paris with a fund
of $4,000 and the foundation at
the same university of department
of technical aeronautics with an en-
dowment of 100000. Columbia

DR.. Atcherley to be of uns uni mind
and a danger to the community and |
order that he be committed and con.
fined In the insane asylum until such
time as he may be declared cured or
discharged"
Such was the decision rendered By
Judge Andrade yesterday I'm the lepg.
thy trial of DR.. Atcherley, charged with
being Of unsound mind.
At the afternoon session yesterday
the Court went to Kalihi. where the
evidence of Frank Carr, was
taken. This had very little bearing on
the case, witness merely testifying to
receiving considerable benefit from
the treatment of the Doctor.
He attempted to show that all the
medical evidence was prejudiced.
That the testifying doctors had already
committed themselves to the opinions
which they had expressed in this trial
He showed that one the chief symp
toms Of Paranoia was lack of con
troll" He would ask anyone In this
court room whether he had shown the
slightest sign Of lack of control In
this trial. He denied the newspaper
article In toto aud stated Il was never
meant for publication The Doctor
concluded his summing up by appeal
ing to the human side of the Judge. Ii
he were committed to the asylum he
would be unable to continue his work.
and consequently unable to support
him family. and IL the Judge saw his
way to discharge him he would re.
frain from writing any more ncwspa.
per articles whether true or fictitious.
Deputy sheriff Rose pointed out the
provision Of the statute which said
that the person adiudgcd insane must
be removed TO the insane asylum but
Judge Andrade ordered that he be left
In his present quarters until today any
way.
The Doctor has flied two appeals.
One to the I.unacy Commission and
the other to the Circuit Court. Wheth.

which may yet have to be decided. =

leaders of an alien population have

Under Suspicion

OLYMPIA, March Sin spite of
the fact that resolutions calling for
an investigation of the affairs of the
various state officials have been de-
feated in both house and senate, there
is still strong possibility that such
an investigation will be made, as Act
ing Governor Hay is known to be
strongly in favor of such a course
In conference at which he and
several other prominent members of
the legislature, as we'll as some of
the state officers were present, the
sentiment was expressed that such
an investigation was due, both to the
people and to the officers about whom
rumors have been circulated. 1t is
not known what steps will be taken
to bring about the investigation but
it is probable that joint resolution
will be introduced before the end of
the session calling for the appoint
ment of a special committee for this
purpose.

COLONIST RATE FOLDERS
AT THE COMMERCIAL CLUB
Secretary Moore Has Secured Quantity
of Railroad Information
Guides.

For the information repeatedly called
for by those in the east who communi-
cate with him, Secretary A. c. Moore,
of the Commercial club, has secured
from the Union Pacific, Oregon Short
Line and the 0. r. & N. companies a
consignment Of folders containing quo
tations of daily colonist rates to Wal
Ia Walla during the months of March
and April. These folders will be en-
closed in all eastern communications,
in order that prospective homeseekers
may see at a glance what the fare will
be to a given point. In addition to the
rate and time tables, the folder con-
tains a three-page comprehensive de-
scrfptive article of the Walla Walla
country, its advantages and resources,
and is embellished with a map of the
northwest states.
