NOT QUITE ETHICAL

By an informal ruling the Supreme
Court this morning held that it would
scarcely be in accord with legal ethics
for County Attorney Cathcart or De-
putty Milverton to appear for Mrs. Net
tie L. Scott in her suit against the Ter
ritory. Attorney General Hemenway
in presenting the question mentioned
that Mr.. Cathcart had formerly been
attorney for the SCOTS and when re-
quested to take this case for Mrs. Scott
had accepted without giving thought
to his position as prosecuting officer
for the Territory in this City and
County. The cause of action in this
case arises in the County of Hawaii,
being claim for damages by plaintiff
on account of removal from the prin-
cipalship of the HolualOa school.

POLO HAPPENINGS

Walter Dillingham; received a letter
by the last mail informing him that
the California polo club with which he
played early in the year had put up
$500 for the expenses of the crack
English team which is coming over to
play the Californians in a few months
1t is intimated that the coast players
would like Dillingham; to drop over
and help them out again, but the dred-
ger magnate is just now so busy with
his big government contracts that he
will be unable to do so.
However, Mr.. Dillingham; has plan
on here which, while being strictly
business, will give to Honolulu one of
the finest polo fields in the islands

regard to the corporations.
1.-THE work of the present administra-

the last in continuing to enforce the

speaking through congress in prevent
ing the things which the people have
Welfare of the republic, but the meth
ods which are necessary to awaken the
business community to a recognition
of the existence and vitality OF these
laws are no longer essential, said Mr.
Wickersham.
1--WE have heard frequently of late
from the representatives OF certain
business interests in the country cries
of Let US have peace and Let US
alone The price of peace is obedlence
to law; those who honestly try to keep
the law need not fear prosecution.
Il am perfectly we'll aware that there
is an uncertainty as to the precise scope
and meaning of the law which most
closely touches all business actlvltles
of the country-namely, the sherman

That was. punishment for criminal
acts. The other 1000. 600 was restitution
of back duties accruing from false

is to get at the human being behind
the corporation, whether officer or en-

nal acts and punish them. We can not
tell when the prosecution will begin, but
il will be as soon as we get our evidence

ir many cases railroads are probably
carrying goods at less than cost for the
purpose of shutting out water compe-
tition. TT is evident that in such cases
an increase in the rail rate would be
an advantage to all concerned it is
declared. for it would restore certain
bulky traffic to the waterways. where
ii economically belongs. and leave the
railway equipment available for traf-
fic properly moving by land, and at the
same time making possible a reduction
of other rail rates by cutting off busi-
ness done at a loss and by increasing
the volume of profitable business. Nor
should the railways fear the restora
tion of water traffic to this extent. for
the history of water transportation
shows that it frequently makes traffic
for the railroads more than sufficient
to make up for the apparent loss of
bI1siness"
