of the next board of sytematiZe the
salaries of the deputies in the vari

ment in such a way as to equalize the
present discrepancies between the
salaries paid by the different depart

II is therefore probable that many

ed In this regard several. of the dep
uties. it is said, are receiving salaries
larger, by several dollars a month
than that paid TO some OF the elective
officers, and the caucus took the
stand that this was unfair. The cuts
proposed will in some cases run as
nigh as fifty dollars month. Ii is
understood that the plans call for d
reduction all along the line TO the
salaries paid the deputies before the
last raise voted by the present board
There was some discussion on the
proposed appropriation bills, but
nothing definite was reached.

W. o. SMITH

: x = - 81
The conduct OF the Democratic
members of the Bar Association at
the meeting HEIR yesterday after
aoon was disgracefnl," exclaimed the
Hon. w. o. Smith this morning
The chief matters under consider
ation," continued air. Smith, were
recommendations for the reappofnt-
ment of Circuit Judges Parsons of
Iilo, Matthewman of Kona, and
Kingsbury of Wailuku, whose terms
Of office are about to expire. Each
Of these judges had done good SER
vice and is approved in the COM
munity where he lives. They were
appointed irrespective ofs their politi-
cal party affiliations, and under the
circumstances the logical and proper
thing was to recommend their reap
pointment But the Democratic
members of the bar association pulled
every political wire to have Mr.. Ed
ings, Democrat, appointed in the
place of Judge Parsons. and failing
that succeeded finally in having him
nominated for Judge Kingsbury's
place by a majority of two votes out
Of thirty-four.
THE next effort was to have J. l..
Coke named for L. S. District Attor-
ney. Mr.. Coke is a Democrat who
has just been elected to the Terri
torial Senate for four years term.
Mr.. Breckons,' the present u. S. At
torney, has not yet resigned. and the
manner in which the campaign of
Coke was carried on was dis
,creditable.
THE Office of T. S. District Attor-
ney is a political one and the bar as
sociation has not heretofore used it's
influence in regard to any political
appointments, but has acted only in
the matter of the judicial appoint
ments, and this without regard to
party politics.
The attitude at yesterdays meet
ing will tend to weaken the influ-
ence of the bar association very
much. If yesterdays. performance is
fair sample of the methods and
tactics of Democrats when they get
into power, | do not wonder that
when they have been in power in the
past they have failed to hold it lone" "
