"a china vase!" exclaimed George
Strang in disgust as he eyed the
queer-looking object in his hand.
1t was, indeed, the most repulsive
looking vase that he had even seen.
1t was rotund and highly decorated
with painted pink roses, and upon it
was printed in small, black letters:
"You may break, you may shatter the

But the scent of the roses will cling

POLICE JUDGE
Appropriation at Salary Rails
ing Bee Does Not Sat
isfy Court

Police Magistrate ]. M. Monsarrat
has q formal complaint to lodge
against the recent action Of the board
of supervisors when they indulged in
salary-raising bee for the benefit of
city hall and other municipal en-
ployes.
Judge M0hsarrat, upon seeing the
budget approved by the supervisors
for the next six months, was aston
ished to find that the supervisors had
appropriated but $S75 for the ex-
penses Of district court employees. Fur
thermore, he says. the supervisors
have approved an illegal system by so
approprfating the money that other
district courts must call upon Mon
sarrat for their Interpreters.
The supervisors are violating the
provisions Of their own city and coun-
ny act and ehfil lodge . compipint
WITH the county j ttofileys says Judge
Monsarrat. The county act provides
that each district court shall have its
Interpreters. Now the supervisors
have made a small appropriation, Just
about enough for my court, evidently
expecting my interpreters to serve IN
the other district courts of this ISL
and. shall not permit them to do
this The county act provides for in
terpfeters to be appointed by each
district magistrate and my interpret
ers cannot lawfully be called on to
serve in another district.
"This board of supervisors had one
difference with me before, which was
settled against them. They tried to
hold up my ..ppoih mems Of the inter-
prefers, thinking 20 get tails under
their control, too, but found that the
law provided that the district magis-
trate should appoint them"
Judge Monsarrat says that his court
attaches are now poorly paid, the
board having refused to bring their
salaries up to the average: Still, he
points out, the supervisors have rails
ed salaries right and left in the police
department, the stronghold of the
Democratic political machine.

CATS ANDCARTS

Dead cats in a stream. junk carts
in a Fourth of July parade, hack
drivers hacking out living on street
cCrners, were a few of the things
which pestered the brains of the
supervisors at their meeting at 1890
this afternoon.
The dead cats were assigned to the
street and health committees, the
junk carts were put figuratively, ON
tie table, and when the meeting was
ever the supervisors went to inspect
the conditions at Maunakea and Ho-
tel streets, where the trouble over
the hacks has arisen.
Two petitions have been filed, one
by drivers asking permission to make
their stand at Mauna Kea and Hotel
streets and the other by merchants
protesting against the permission be-
ing granted. Between the superyis-
ors and the sheriff the matter is GO
ing to be thrashed out this afternoon.
A request was made that the roads

Fourth of July parade along with the
vehicles of the fire department Ii

add to the length of the procession
they would in no wise add to its

commission. Such is the opinion or
Attorney General w. w. Thayer, to
whom the question was submitted.
AS stated in the Star-Bulletin yes
terday, a clause in the act creating
tie commission prohibits member
of that body from holding interest in
any corporation which may come

Mott. Smith is a director and has a
minority interest in the John Mott
Smith Estate, which has minority
stock in che Hawaiian Commercial e.
Sugar Company. The latter in turn
controls the Kahuluf Railroad Com

The attorney general holds that
Mott Smiths case is comparable to
that of a Judge, who may be debarred
from sitting in case il he has an
interest in one of the parties in suit
that would be affected by his deci-
sion in the dispute at hand, but is
not disqualified if his interest is too
remote to be affected by the case.
