DIsPLAc1NG JUDGE WHITNEY.
From the Maui News)


1t is certainly disheartening when man of
the calibre of Judge William i. Whitney, of
the First Circuit Court and of the Juvenile
Court of Honolulu is refused reappointment
solely because he happens to be Republican
and the administration apparently has a Demo-
cratic lawyer that needs the job. 1t is on b.
half of the community that we refer. and not to
Judge Whitney, who doubtless will have a good
deal better job, financially considered, than he
now has on the bench. Judge Whitney S con
spicuous work for almost fifteen years as dis
trict magistrate and a circuit Judge has been
in connection with juvenile delinquents. A
young man, he has been peculiarly fitted for
dealing with this particularly difficult class of
work. He has devoted his whole time and
energy to it. His personality has made it pos
sibe for him to set youthful offenders and de
linquents back upon the straight path, where
most persons would have failed He has been
instrumental in framing special laws for the
dealing with children, and his real sympathy
and understanding has always urged him to the
fore in all movements looking to the ameliora-
lion of the wrongs against childhood, or in the
sordidness of life to the little unfortunates of
the street
And yet the attorney general has notified
Judge Whitney BY cable from Washington that
he does not intend to recommend his reappoint-
ment 1t takes just such an act of Grass stupid
ity to convince one that no mistake was made
in selecting the animal which symbolizes the
dominant political party.

EVERY RIGHT TO RESENT.

Hawaii has every right to resent the sug-
4tstion made in Washington that the organic
act be so changed as to allow the naming of
mainlanders for territorial iudgeships
The Washington correspondent of this paper,
whose letter today reveals the plan ON foot,
fiehffullv dubs the proposed arrangement
the expectation of judges to Hawaii. 1t
would be as much commercial-in the sense
of POLITICAL trading system as Judicial sys-
tenn. Against such a plan the territory has
every reason to protest If it were to be
worked out primarily on the basis of ability
and fitness, the injustice would not be so great;
but this territory has past experience to prove
that ability and fitness come second to political
cxpediency in filling Hawaiian offices by main
land appointments.
The department of justice has fallen into a
oraxe error in its handling of the judiciary APP
oointmenfs. Its first consideration is to see
that the Republican judges are ousted Then
comes the task of filling the vacancies As the
news from Washington today shows, the num-
her of ssdeserving Democrats is so limited
and their calibre so doubtful that the attorney

WHAT INTERNATIONAL CONSCIENCE
DEMANDS.

There is a disposition, noticeable in few OF
the mainland papers, to hope that in response
to the firm American notes Germany will give
up her submarine warfare. This hope, if it
exists, is probably doomed to some disappoint-
menf
Ii is too much to expect that Germany will
abandon entirely her submarine campaign and
Il is too much to ask A careful reading of the
first and second American notes does not indi-
cate that the United States government has
asked it. What this country does ask, and
what we may expect, is a modification OF the
campaign to avoid the needless sacrifice of
human life in contravention to international
law and the rights of humanity.
What America asks is that merchant vessels
shall not be sunk without warning, that OPP
portnnity be afforded passengers and crew to
make their escape, and particularly that ships
shaIl not be torpedoed until it is definitely es-
tablished that they are belligerent and not neu-
trail ships.
III straws show which way the wind of war
blows, America may hope that the next German
note will indicate spirit of readiness to OBJ
serve the incontestable law of nations. which
calls for halt and search of vessels before they
are DESTROYED as beligerents, or as carrying
contraband
Both the Allies and the Germans have trans
crossed International law in their desperate
efforts to gain strategic advantage or to ter
rofize the opponent A wel-informed technical

gases, says it is now established that both
sides have nsed asphyxiation as a mode of com.

The UnIty Of Lie.

There is nothing, I. think, that brings home to.one more conclusively the unity of life, and therefore the unity of knowledge, of that life. than the attempts to study any particular subject by itself and confine yourself to it alone.ss You find very soon that you cannot do>so. No aspect of life can be separated from the rest and understood even in any small degree without some knowledge of the rest of life.@ No part of life stands alone Every phenomenon of life is the re- sult,. not of one or two causes alone, but of the interaction of .innumerable causes. %To get near. the understand ing of only one item you must be able to estimate more or less Sruly all the forces that make life, and the objec- tive of life. As with Ihe eddy of a river, to estimate it you must know not merely the eddy, but much also of the river its volume and its speed. the density of it's waters, the conf1gu- ration of its banks and its general direction. The observation of the eddy only would lead you into the widest fallacies.-The Atlantic.

 "There!" exclaimed the peasant, triumphantly, T told you potato car. ried in the pocket was cure for rheu. matism. and you wouldn't believe me-

REASON FOR THE MUSTACHE
In Evidence as Having Been Worn by .1 British Soldiers as Measure of
 Military Necessity.

% The correspondent who writes to . contemporary suggesting that the British war office authorities should insist on soldiers being clean shaven instead of ordering them to wear mus taches. might have alleged Teutonic influence in the adoption of the mus tache of the British army. The idea was first borrowed from batch of Austrian officers Quartered with, some of our troops on the South coast dur ing the Waterloo campaign. It was then taken up by the guards, who very much resented any attempt on the part of mere line regiments to follow the new fashion. The winter cam paign in the Crimea led our men to grow full boards for warmth, and these, modified into flowing whiskers i"Picadilly weepers,' as they came to be called) on their return to Lon don, were long regarded as the mark of the man of fashion.-London Chronicle.
