DISTRIBUTING THE DIGNITY OF JUSTICE


Chief Justice Robertson is entirely justified
in his protest, voiced yesterday in an interview
with this paper, against the shabby furniture
literally thrust upon the supreme court of the
territory
The judiciary building has been reconstruct
ed at cost of more than a hundred thousand
dollars and is now handsome structure inside
and out. Many of the other departments have
been we'll equipped with furniture, but the
desks, tables and chairs in the supreme court
room would not grace even junkshop.
The law of the land should be vested in dig
nifty and honor, and the administrators Of that
law are entitled to surroundings that will com
port with their high office There should be
about the chambers of the supreme court of this
territory an atmosphere of worthy impressive
ness But the furnishings of the courtroom
now can do nothing but discredit the admins
tration OF justice, fand the judges Of the bench
are right in.the protest uttered yesterday by the
chief justice.
The present legislature should make the nee
essary appropriation for furniture and furnish
ings. The courtroom is likely to be the occa-
sion of notable gatherings. The territory can
not afford to shove its highest tribunal into
shabby surroundings, either for such gatherings

authoritative Justice

merce has refused 10 NEEDLE with matters OF pri-
yate opinion or private concern, such as relate
to race, religion, political opinion, relations of
employer and emplOye.
The Chamber Of Commerce has not bowed
down to any individual or interest, however big
or powerful. 1t cannot be controlled, and we
do net believe that it can be destroyed, because
lit is loyal to Oakland and is democratic in its
Organization. This Chamber Of Commerce is an
Oakland organization. 1t stands for Oakland
and the development of its civic, commercial, in
Idustrial, financial interests.
But for the initiative of the officers of the
Chamber of Commerce in warning the people
and organizing a campaign against annexation,
the city of Oakland would today be part and
parcel of San Francisco
This is an incOntrovertible fact. Certain in,
terests would like to see this Chamber of Com
merce destroyed because it stands for Oakland
One of the simplest and most effective ways of
killing chamber of commerce is to starve it to
death for lack of financial support This can be
done directly or by diverting it's support by di-
viding interests This cannot be done if the in.
diyidual members of the Chamber of Commerce
are loyal and vigilant in it's behalf.
1t is for the individual members of the Cham,
Der of Commerce to say whether they will sup
port its policies and it's activities This can be
done by increasing its present membership by
even one thousand persons who will pay one dol
lar a month dues to finance the overhead or run
ming expenses. The extent of it's larger work
will be measured by what the people of Oakland
are willing to expend.
The work of the Chamber of Commerce is
your work. Will you support it?

WORTH THINKING OVER HERE

Oakland's Chamber of Commerce, under the
significant heading, sLest We Forget, is asking
the people Of Oakland for adequate support.
There is SO much, of sound sense in what it
points to as the duties and objects of we'll
rounded commercial body that its statement is
here reprinted:
The chamber of commerce of Oakland repre-
SCENTS the constructive work of generation. 1t
is the elimination of experiments in the forma-
ton of commercial organizations during period
of nearly third of a century.
Commercial organizations in Oakland have
been built up and then have been thrown down
because of mistakes in policy or because of pub
lie apathy, divided interest and lack of support.
They have been wrecked upon the rocks of
politics. private interests, personal ambition, di-
yided opinion upon questions not within the
province of commercial organization.
The directors and the secretary of the present
Chamber of Commerce of Oakland have endeav-
ored to steer clear of these rocks and avoid the
disasters which have befallen other commercial
bodies They have refrained from interference
in issues not of a commercial character or relat-
inc to the promotion of the interests Of the com,
munity. 49,
The Chamber Of Commerce has refused to be
a part Of any political machine. 1t has reserved
the right to criticize or advise for the benefit of
fbe people of Oakland any official or any corpor.

THE TIME TO SHOW SUPPORT

If there is any support here for the cred
light bill now before the legislature, the time
to show that support is tomorrow evening at I &c
O'clock in the senate chamber, when the senate
holds public meeting to discuss the bill. The
measure provides practical means whereby
any citizen may close up, by injunction, prem
Uses used for disordery persons or may drive
such persons from the premises. Iowa, the orig
inator of the plan, found it SO successful that
Nebraska, Washington and California have fol
lowed suit. A favorable report from the senate
health committee, of which Senator Chilling
worth is chairman, will go a long way toward
putting the bill through the Legislature.

After all the flinging of loose charges against
the administration for it's transfer of Hilo lands
to the Hilo railroad company, the commonsense
report of the house public lands committee is
refreshing. The committee exonerates the gov
ernor and other territorial officials, holds that
the transfer is entirely legal "and in granting
the same the officers of the territory exercised
a sound discretion and protected the interests of
the territory" The investigating committee
certainly cannot be accused of bias in favor of
the governor. It's report is the only report that
could justly have been made.
