The vice-chancellor ordered counsel to

he was without jurisdiction to restrain
the Surrogate.
The issue in the will contest lies be-

will executed by her in 1910, she made
her husband the chief beneficiary OF
her estate, and she CalledE New Jersey

Java, she made her sisters the princi-
pal beneficiaries and called New York

OPPORTUNITY.

The new municipal administration BEGIN,
ITS two-year term today under auspices that
are particularly bright. 1t does not have to
make an extraordinary record to surpass that
of recent administrations and to satisfy the
people generally. What Honolulu wants is an
administration that does it's best its public
spirited, unselfsh, energetic and persistent
best, to run the city decently and properly.
What Honolulu wants is the emphasis placed
first on efficiency and next on politics. instead
of the reverse
There has never been time when coopcra-
ton between the city officials and the people
generally was so easy to secure as it is today
Good faith and mutual respect on each side
will assure that cooperation

MAYOR LANES MESSAGE,

lie urges equitable enforcement of the loca
Improvement or frontage-tax law as a neces
Sary feature of the good roads campaign
steps toward municipal hospital city hall
liberal city appropriations for the Promotion
Committee; the extension and development of
public parks and Fairgrounds; and in general
close attention on the part of all branches of
the municipal government to prudence and
economy in office. ...
Individual recommendations which will
probably be objected to are those for separate
bureaus fer the waterworks and sewers and
for road construction. The plan for a separate
waterworks and sewers bureau has been voted
down once in caucus. As the idea reappears in
the mayors message, it is rather different from
the form in which it went before the caucus of
supervisors ELECT. The mayor recommends that
the head of one of the three departments
waterworks and sewers, engineering and road
constructions as Superintendent of all
Recommendation as it is contained in his mes
sage is in line with what public opinion has
recently expressed-that the city engineer
should be the active head Of all the bureaus,
though these bureaus might need superin-
tending official in addition to the office staff
The plan can be carried out without adding
expensive salaried offices, for there are men
in the bureaus now, with the possible exception
of the road department capable of taking the
jobs.
The mayors recommendation for dairy and
meat inspections will probably cause the
strongest objections. 1t appears that he is in
favor of building up an extensive city inspec-
ton system. That is needless at this time and
particularly unwise because of the city's fnan-
cial condition. The territorial board of health
is equipped to do most of the sanitary inspec
ton and is doing most Of it. For instance,
though the city has milk inspector, he is as
useless as an appendix. The territorial board
does all the real work, By giving the terri
torial board Is milk Inspector a city and county
commission, and paying small part Of his
salary, the city can get for $40 month in
spection which will cost at least $40 if the
tries to do it properly.
This matter of sanitary inspection should be
given much thought. The tendency seems to
be toward increasing the power of the terri
torial board rather than decreasing it; toward
,ity support for the territorial organization
-ather than development of a separate and
,ften conflicting city organization.
The Star Bulletin expects Mayor Lane to be
mite ready to discuss the merits or flaws in
is own recommendations. In general, his mes
ge is satisfactory, and if the spirit is OBJ
aryed by the new administration, it should
I'VE satisfactory account of itself to the
oters who cast their ballot for an efficient
ot,duct of Honolulu affairs.

NO REQU1EMs.

7 Mayor Fern leaves office with personal
record that is clean. Whatever may be said of
his picturesque characteristics and his official
caliber, his honest conduct of office has not
been questioned. There are few men in Homo
lulu or anywhere else on the islands with more
personal friends than Joe" He has many
qualities to command respect and many friends
to wish him well. And, by the way, this is no
official requiem for Joe Fern. In 1916 he prob
ably will be found fighting for the mayoralty
with all of his undoubted shrewdness, and if
Mayor Lane does not make good, Joe will very
likely step back into the shoes he vacated at
noon today.
