GETTING down TO HILO wharf
BUSINESS.

Commissioner Wakefield sounded
the right note at the close of We'd
nesday's session of the Harbor Com
mission when he said that there had
been hearings enough; It is time for
the Commission to get to work and
frame its own conclusions.
This sounds like public business
done on the basis of the greatest
speed. commensurate with the high
est standard of efficiency.
All sides have had their innings.
The railway has presented its plan
that is sweeping in its request for alb
solute control and long-term priv
ilcges. The steamship companies
have had the time to go over the va
rlous projects of other transporta-
ton interests and also propose one Of
their own.
Now II Is up to the Harbor Commits
sion to act for and In behalf of the
people, II must not only provide a
plan for Hilo wharf but do II
speedily. The whole scheme has Ian
guished In the doldrums of cross
purposes and conflicting interests.

GOVERNOR JOHNsON's MESSAGE.

Governor Johnson of California set
new pace the other day in messages
TO the Legislature.
Briefly put. Governor Johnson said
to the members of the California Leg
islaturc that they knew for what pur-
pose they were summoned and there
was no real necessity for going to
great lengths to remind them of their
duty. We quote the full text of the
message:
"The Legislature has been convened
In extraordinary session for the pur-
poses that are specifically set forth
in the proclamation that has been
heretofore duly issued.
when the call for the extra scs-
sion was made a copy was sent to
each of the members, that all might
be familiar with the work necessary
to be done.
Some of the matters embraced
within this call imperatively demand
action. Others are formal In char
acter. All alike, however--those that
are difficult and those that are not
are submitted to you In the firm be-
lief, justified by your previous ac-
tons. that your solution of every
problem will be Just, adequate and
speedy
Because of thorough preparation
and complete knowledge on your part
Of the matters concerning which you
are to legislatc, do not attempt to
specify in detail the subjects before
you.
81 would, however, call to your at
tcntion one fact that Is evident--that
those who would wish their Legisla-
turc i'll and who care nothing for the
state desire that you become en-
broiled during this special session so
that you will not within reasonable
period accomplish the purposes for
which you have been called together
Il trust, therefore, that the same
spirit which you displayed with such
marked success and accomplishment
at your regular session will prevail
in your present deliberations"
There is a wealth Of common sense
In that message. In the first place
the Governor assumes that the men,
bers of the Legislative branch of the
government know their business.
They are merely there to perfect a
program that was presented to the
people for approval and approved.
More than this, the Governor keeps
popular attention conferred on the
main issue. Refraining from elabor-
ate explanations and pyrotechnics. he
makes II more difficult for the trouble
makers within and without the Leg
islature to do their work under cover.
