order to get start thereto, the services
Of an American body in the form Of a
commission, who would teach them the
elements and their practice OF popular
rule, was necessary. This precedent Is
important, and it comedies well with
the present tendency in the United
States to have governments by commits
sion.
It stands to reason that such govern
ments should be in the interest OF the
United States, and also in the interest
Of the obstructive foreign people in
Hawaii, who are opposing their own
best welfare in antagonlzing the de-
sires of the United States Government,
We believe that a properly constituted,
patriotic commission of American
statesmen could do more for Hawai-
(and for the Philippines, too, for that
matter,) than is in any way possible
through the abortive and annoying
efforts to allow natives wholly mex
perienced in local government, and
childishly incompetent to play with
edged tools which they know nothing
about, TO misgovern themselves and
bring the United States into difficulties
and cost not only for no good purpose,
but for selfish and evil purposes at all
times.
The commission form of government
would harm none of those natives, and
would do them all good; and we are
much inclined to support tho commits
sion plan of government, as suggested
by Mr.. Andrews, not only for Hawaii,
but FOR the Philippines, and probably it
would be better also for Porto Rico,
than the present form; but certainly
better for the Philippines and for
Hawaii

Acting the Fool

The regular democrats in the
legislature are acting the fool.
They seem bent on satiating their
hunger for Office, and in order to
do it are proposing to make the
most radical changes in the state
government.
THE latest proposition is to
abolish the present board Of three
prison commissioners appointed by
the governor because Hooper has
filled the places with republicans
and create a new board, to be com.
prised of seven commissioners, all
to get 50, 500 a year each. Why
not make it eleven, or fifteen, or
twenty, instead of seven?
Such tactics as these nauseate
the sensible people of the state
There are too many place-hunting
two-by-four politicians among the
democratic members of the legis-
lature, and they are doing the
party no service in trying to rush
through such indefensible meas
ures as this new prison bill.
The present system Of conduct
ing the prisons was all right as
long as the guns were manned by
democrats, and it cannot be all
wrong merely because republicans
have taken their places.
