FOR SPEEDIER TRIALS

Circuit Judge Ashford has signalized his ac
cession to the bench with the following warming
to attorneys who rely on delay to bolster VI
their cases: +
1T strikes me that the convenience of counsel
has been too GENEROUSLY recognized in the past, and
have felt that that ought tc lie very much within
the domain CT the rights CT counsel particularly in
civil casesthat they should practically dictate the
time of the trial of civil cases. But with regard to
criminal cases, where the territory at large is
party different considerations intervene and it is
highly desirable that speedy trial be accorded the
defendants; on the one hand as matter OF justice
to them and on the other hand insuring greater
degree OF justice and fair play to the territory, be-
cause we all are that in criminal partic
uarly the longer they left untred the fewer are
the prospects OF securing convictions
"As general proposition / think may say that
Ine interests OF the territory demand speedy trials
believe It also is proposition which may be recog
nized with equal force that the longer a criminal
case is delayed the better are the chances of the de-
fendant 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 ju.
iiciary. Recognizing that the layman's opinion
- at once open to the scornful criticism of the
law initiate, we nevertheless venture the asser.
ion that the next few years will witness a sweep
lngaway of the web of delaying technicalities
which now surrounds American Jurisprudence
md a more definite reliance on the merits of the
matter. And this will result in speedier hear.

FISH AND FOWL

Auto-owners and drivers of Honolulu will be
eIad to learn from the interview with District
Magistrate Monsarrat published in another col
umn of this paper that Judge Monsarrat does
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 a white chauf-
feur arrested for similar infractions of the traf-
nc rules have attracted much attention. The
Japanese was fined, the white chauffeur re-
ceived a suspended sentence, which is practi-
cally no more serious than discharge. Both
we're arrested for driving on the wrong side of
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 ear for some
weeks and furthermore that he was trying to
avoid a particularly rough piece of road.
In court, the arresting police officer stated,
according to the court, that he recognized
the road was very poor at this point and
that he didn't blame the chauffeur for cross
ing over The prosecuting attorney, Mr..

WHY THE STAR CLIMBER!

49,. Honolulu. Aug. 81, 1914.
Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: Is there any explanation or
reason for the liquor license commits
sion. the board of supervisors or any
other public service organization hold
ing Star Chamber" sessions?
Are not these bodies public servants
and is not the public entitled to know
what its employees are doing just the
same as any business house is entitled
to know of the acts of its employees?
Provided the public is capable of
creating these positions, or of elect
ing officials who are empowered to
make these appointments. it certainly
is competent to pass upon their acts

few days ago attention was called in these
columns to the very bad condition of Punchbowl
street, the main avenue of approach to the
Queens Hospital. Now the city is busy fixing
the street, steam-rollers are putting up and
down, and new and smooth surface from Queen
street to the hospital entrance is being laid in
a hurry. Many thanks Engineer Wall, on be-

Speaking of Kalakaua avenue and the po-
ice order against going Waikikiward on the
smooth side, either the other road should be
mended or the police ruling modified So long
Us 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

WIRELESS AND NATIONAL
NEUTRALITY

When Collector of Customs Franklin YES
terday afternoon received orders from Wash
ington to seal up the wireless apparatus Of
merchantmen a beligerent nations. now in
port, a new precedent was set here in interna-
tiona law 1..
The subject was first raised i'm New York
several weeks ago when report went out that
German-owned wireless telegraph stations in
the United States had been sending informa-
tiun 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
rifory nv one of the bellgerents, 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, fer the purpose of communicating mill
fary information and orders TO 4 ship at sea,
thing no cable company or land line could
DO. If, for instance the German-owned sta
tons in New York and New Jersey should
communicate to a Germs1 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 commandant 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 beIligerent nation, the seals to be main
fained until the vessels departure 1t was
under these specific orders and the general rule
of neutrality recently interpreted by the presi-
dent that the customs men yesterday afternoon
sealed the wireless of several merchant vessels
ia port.
This is one instance of the new problems
that are arising during the European wal.
there will be many others, for the advance in
methods OF communication, of fighting, of
transportation, brings up new situations.
