FOR SPEEDIER TRIALS

Circuit Judge Ashford has signalized his ac
cession to the bench with the following warning
to attorneys who rely on delay to bolster up
their cases:
1T strikes me that the convenience of counsel
has been too generously recognized in the past, and
have felt that that ought to lie very much within
the domain of the rights CT counsel particularly in
civil cases-that they should practically dictate the
time of the trial of civil But with regard to
criminal cases, where the territory at large is
party. different considerations intervene and 1t is
highly desirable that speedy trial be accorded the
defendants; the hand matter Of justice
to them and on the other hand insuring greater
degree of Justice and fair play the territory be-
cause we all aware that in criminal partic
uary the longer they are left untred the fewer
the prospects OF securing convictions
AS general proposition think may say that
the interests OF the territory demand speedy trials
believe 1t also is proposition which may be recog.
nized with equal force that the longer a criminal
case delayed the better the chances of the de-
PENDANT to escape conviction"
The community heartily applauds these senti
ments and strange to say We have heard not an
attorney complaining that an unfair attack has
been made upon the legal profession or the iu.
dietary. Recognizing that the layman's opinion
is at once open to the scornful criticism of the
law initiate, we nevertheless venture the asser-
ton that the next few years will witness a sweep
ing-away of the web of delaying technicalities
which now surrounds American Jurisprudence
and a more definite reliance on the merits of the
matter. And this will result in speedier hear
ings -

COHEN SLATED
FOR ATTACK BY
MORNINGPAPER?
Mayoraity Candidates Plans to
Use BiIIboards Believed to
Have Started Fight

Joel c. Cohen, candidate for mayor,
is the object CT threatened attack by
the Advertiser, according to Cohen s
friends today. because he contem,
plates using the billboards to get his
candidacy before the people.
Cohen recently purchased through
the Pioneer Advertising agency mum.
Der of large-sized portrait posters to
be placed en- local billboards. The
fact that he intended to use the bill
boards became noised around. This
morning the Advertiser said editorial
ly: ' -. ~" @.
"A candidate who has no more re-
gard for the beauty of Honolulu than
to use the billboards in his campaign
Is net a fit man to be the mayor of
Honolulu 1t may be taken for grant
ed, too, that candidate who makes
use of billboards notifies the fourth
district that he has no use for the
four thousand odd votes Of that part
of the city"
Cohen's friends and Cohen himself
understand today that he is the can
didate for mayor referred to. Cohen
declined to talk for publication to-
day or do more than to say merely
that he knows no other candidate for
mayor who had contemplated using
billbcards
His campaign, however, is being
made very largely on the declaration
that he Is controlled by no person or
corporation and is entirely independ-
ent and indications today were that
he expects to use the billboards for
his portrait posters. one of which
was put up at the Bijou theater last
night.
Surprise was expressed today at the
reported imminent break between Co
hen and the morning paper, as up to
the present time the Advertiser has
appeared to be distinctly friendly to
Cohen and his campaign and referred
to his candidacy as In line with a
movement for efficient and business
like government.

FISH AND FOWL

Auto-owners and drivers of Honolulu will be
glad to learn from the interview with District
Magistrate Monsarrat published in another col

not intend to make fish of one and fowl of an
other in passing upon violations of the traffic
law.
The cases of japanese and white chauf-
feur arrested for similar infractions of the traf
1c rules have attracted much attention. The
Japanese was fined, the white chauffeur. re-
ceived suspended sentence, which is pract-

Kalakaua avenue.
On behalf of the white chauffeur it is stated
by the district magistrate and the prosecuting
attorney that he pleaded ignorance of the new
traffic rule, not having driven his car for some
weeks, and furthermore that he was trying to
avoid a particularly rough piece of road
In court, the arresting police officer stated
recording to the court, that he recognized
the road was very poor at this point and
that he ssdidn't blame the chauffeur for cross

w IRELESS AND NATIONAL
NEUTRALITY ...

When Collector of Customs Franklin YES
terday afternoon received orders from Wash
ingtOn to seal up the wireless apparatus Of
merchantmen Of beligcrent nations now in
port, new precedent was set here in interna-
tional law. ""~.. 3 f..
The subject was first raised in New York
several weeks ago when report went out that
German-owned wireless telegraph stations in
the United States had been sending Informal
tion and orders to German ships at sea- Ii
was denied at the time that such information
had been sent, but President Wilson took adj
vantage of the opportunity to lay down new
principle in the duties of neutrals and the re-
strictions on representatives of belligerents.
The general rule, notes the New York Times,
seems TO have been understood hitherto as pro
hibiting the Use of the wireless on neutral ter
ritory by one of the belligerents, but it has not
been extended to the operations of private
companies, which have stood on the same foot
ing as cable companies and land telegraph
lines.
The Times adds "But no such situation as
the one existing today has ever before arisen.
In this case the wireless on American territory
is said to have been used, certainly is capable
of use, for the purpose of communicating mill
tary information and orders to 4 ship at sea,
thing no cable company or land line could
do. If, for instance the German-owned sta
tions in New York and New Jersey should
communicate to German cruiser the news
that a rich prize was leaving New York
Harbor and sh ould be captured, it would
be difficult to avoid the charge that per-
sons on American territory were taking part in
the war. President Wilson's proclamation of
neutrality commands that no person within the
territory and jurisdiction of the United States
shall take part, directly or indirectly, in the
said wars That seems to cover the question,
but he has put the matter beyond the range of
doubt by his order, and has made precedent
which will presumably govern the use of wire
less in future wars.
The orders received yesterday give general
jurisdiction for all matters concerning radio
communication involving neutrality to the ma,
val commandment here. If necessary to enforce
the Instructions the treasury department
authorizes the customs men to seal the wire
less room and apparatus of any merchant YES
sci of belligerent nation, the seals to be main
tanned until the vessels departure 1t was
under these specific orders andstie general rule
Of neutrality recently interpreted by the presi-
dent that the customs men yesterday afternoon
sealed the wireless of several merchant vessels
il port
This is one instance of the new problems
that are arising during the European war.
There will be many others, for the advance in
methods of communication, of fighting of
transportation, brings up new situations.

Speaking of Kalakaua avenue and the po-
lice order against going Waikikiward on the
smooth side, either the other road should be
mended or the police ruling modified. So long
as the right-hand road is in its present condi-
ton, the the good road should be opened to
traffic both ways with drastic enforcement of
an antispeeding rule. There is plenty of room
for two-way auto-traffc if the cars go at a
reasonable speed

COnLlnueQ from rage SIX.
from grateful souls, for the spread of
the Good Tidings of great Joy which
shall yet be unto all people. More
over, it is my conviction that no one
could be an acceptable Christian un-
less he possessed the spirit Of charity.
b~enevolence. unless he really loved to
give for good p~urposes-for the glory
Of God, for the benefit Of his fellows.
The Pastor declared that from his
viewpoint missionary enterprises might
properly be considered charities
but not so Church enterprises. The
Church. he claimed, is not a mission,
airy society for the worlds benefit, but
an arrangement for the benefit Of the
Church members. Hence each men,
Der Of this brotherhood should consider
himself in duty bound to cooperate to
the extent Of his ability in providing
the necessary expenses connected with
the meedng-place - light, janitorage,
etc.-the blessings and comforts Of
which he enjoys. Yet ever in this
there should be nothing akin to coer-
cion or demand. If the sum-total were
found insufficient, more humble quar-
tiers at less expense should be engaged
az o o as possible.
It Is wrong, said the Pastor, for a
congregation to aspire to a fine, ex-
pensive auditorium and general estab-
lishment beyond their own means. 1t
Is wrong for them to 60 outside and
solicit money from the world, the flesh
and the Devil, In the name Of God!
Surely God never authorized such q
proceeding; for Just as surely as it
would be offensive to any right-minded
person to have solicitation for money
made in his name. SC it must be to the
Almighty to have begging done in His
name without His authority.
The Bible distinctly tells that God is
very rich. No rich man would approve
OF begging done In his name, especial
ly from the poor. And for US to prom
Use Gods special blessing and favor In
return for. filthy Iucre is an outrage
against Divine Justice, Wisdom, Love
and Power. The Lords own Word 10
that all the gold and silver are Els.
But, we are told, If solicitations, col
lections, pew rents, fairs, festivals,
ETC., were abandoned, all the churches
would be closed, except such as are
bene6cially endowed. If this were the
case. we believe that, nevertheless, the
Church would gain respect and iniu-
ence with the world which would more
than compensate. IL one-haif the
churches disorganized, the other half,
