Several interesting cases also went
up from Hawaii The islands were
annexed during the Spanish war by
joint resolution of Congress, which
provided that all laws in force in the
Republic, not contrary to the con-
stitution of the United States, should
otherwise ordain. The Constitution
of the United States provides for in
dictment by grand jury and trial by
petit jury of persons charged with
crime, and these provisions have been
held to be in force in the territories.
Under them the verdict must be I'M
animous. Now under the laws of
Hawaii in vogue at the time of the
annexation, persons we're charged
with crime on an information
filed by the Attorney General,
and trial took place before
a jury of twelve, nine of whom
could convict After the passage of
the joint resolution for the anneXa-
ton of Hawaii, the whole plan of
government, which then prevailed
there, was, by order of President
Mckinley, continued in force nearly
two years, and the system of filing
informations and convicting on YER
diets concurred in by nine jurors was
carried on during that period.
When the islands were organized
as a Territory of the United States by
the act of April 80, 1900, habeas cor
pus proceedings were brought in be-
half of a Japanese convicted of MUIR
der upon an information filed by the
Attorney General, and a verdict con-
Cured in by nine jurors. The pro-
ceeding was carried by appeal to the
Supreme Court of the United States
which, by a five to four alignment,
recognized a transition period, dur
ing which Congress might continue
the old or establish a new temporary
government, with view to construct
ing complete government after the
situation and needs of the Territory
had been fully considered. (Hawaii
VS.. Mankichi, 100 U, S. 1919
Two other interesting cases from
Hawaii involved a fishing right, name
ly, the exclusive right to take one
species of fish from the sea along
stretch of shore After the pas
sage of the act organizing the Terri
tory of Hawaii, the local courts held
that this alleged property right was
altogether too vague and indefinite
to be recognized and enforced. The
litigation finally reached the Supreme
Court of the United States. Mr..
Holmes, who wrote the opinion of
the court, referring to the right, said;
The plaintiffs claim is not to be
approached as if it were something
anomalous or monstrous, difficult to
conceive, and more difficult to ad-
NIT. Moreover, however anomalous
it is, if it is sanctioned by legislation
If the statutes have erected it into
property right, property it will be,
and there is nothing for the courts
to do except to recognize it as a
right" Damon VS.. Hawaii, 1914 u.
s. 1854; Carter VS.. Hawaii, 200 U. s.
255.
The same view had been taken in
an early case by Chief Justice Mar
shall in interpreting some Spanish
grants He held that the word prop
erty' in the treaty for the cession of
Florida meant property interests as
recognized under Spanish law.
The Hawaiian Islands have an area
of about 64OO square miles, and po-
pulation of 100000, of which about
