the Olympian car. The contract, which
the firm signed was for several hundred
cars, and is one of the largest made on
motor car row this year.
The Olympian is not new car. It
has successful record of two years
back of it and is manufactured by the
Olympian Motors company of Pontiac,
Mich, in one of the largest motor plants
in the state of Michigan.
The members of the new distributing
company are two we'll known young Min
neapolitans, Messrs. Samuel Kaufman
and Charles Silver Already during the
short time they have had control of the
sales of the Olympian, the car has gain
ed we'll merited popularity and a wide
distribution.
The firm closed contract for this
territory after a thorough investigation
Of the Olympian car, factory and organ
zation. They found that the company
have the right idea-the organization has
complete sympathy with the dealer and
buyer. The car is standing up under
severe tests and is economical on oil
and gasoline. Demonstrations prove
this car will make all hills in high
gear from Buffalo to New York city,
from Chicago to Detroit, from Milwau-
kee to Minneapolis The company have
successful record and our service
stands back of every car.
Olympian selling agencies are now
operating in most all of the cities from
coast to coast. A number of large sue
cessful automobile merchants are plac-
ing this car before the motor car buy
ers, and we predict big success for
the car in Minneapolis.

NEXT WEEK AT THE SHUBERT.

For the coming week at the Shubert
Manager Niggemeyer will offer "Ro-
NANCE" play new to Minneapolis the
atergoers, written by Edward Sheldon.
Although new to this city, London has
enjoyed three continuous seasons of
Romance" New York city two and
Chicago one 1t was in the role of
Rita Cavalini, the opera singer of the
play, that Doris Keane scored the ar
tstic triumph of her career, and it is
through special arrangement with Miss
Keane that Manager Niggemeyer is able
to offer the drama to his patrons.
Romance" has been characterized by
eastern critics, all unanimous in its
praise, as a novelty drama, inasmuch as
the plot is unfolded backward, some
thing after the fashion of "On Trial"
although no revolving stage is used in
presenting the play Marjorie Foster,
leading woman at the Shubert will be
seen as the opera singer, and Albert
McGovern, as the mild hammered old
bishop All of the Shubert players will
have important roles, for the cast is a
long one. Following, Manager Nigge-
meyer will offer "His Majesty Bunker
Beam" sprightly comedy produced at
the Metropolitan late this spring, with
Taylor Holmes in the stellar role.

To the HONORABLE @:--r - E
The Industrial Accident Board OF
the City and County Of Honolulu.
Gentlemen: =
In reply to your letter Of June 20
requesting an opinion as to the status
of your honorable board in view OF
the recent decision Of the Honorable
C. w. Ashford, first judge Of the Cir
cult Court of the First Judicial Cir
cult, holding that the Workmen 5
Compensation Act Is unconstitutional
we beg to advise you as follows:
All circuit courts are courts OF rec
Ord in this territory. Under Section
2246 of the Revised Laws Of the Ter
r$itory OF Hawaii, 1915, the courts Of
record are expressly given the power
to decide the constitutionality of any
statute of the territory in the follow
ing language:
THE several courts of record
shall have power to decide the
constitutionality and binding ef-
feet of any law, ordinance, rule,
regulation, order or decree, enact
u ed or issued by the legislature or
by any executive officer. depart
ment, board or bureau"
Acting under this power and au.
thority Judge Ashford has declared
the Workmen's Compensation Act I'M
constitutional and void. We are aware
OF the fact that, the decision of Judge
Ashford is not a decision of a court
of last resort, and it may be either
reversed or affirmed by our Supreme
Court or by some higher tribunal.
Also the other circuit judges of this
territory are probably not absolutely
bound to follow the rulings of Judge
Ashford. However, as to these mat
tiers, we may only guess and the fact
remains that Judge Ashford's decision
is the law of this territory until such
time as it may be reversed or set
aside. Further no appeal or proceed.
ings to have this decision of Judge
Ashford set aside has been perfected
The effect of this decision until it is
reversed or set aside is, in our opin-
len, that the Workmen's Compensa.
ton act must be regarded as invalid.
The consequence of the over
ruling Of these cases was, that
the statutes which, according to
the ruling therein, would have
been held unconstitutional. were
valid, not from the time of over
. ruling those cases, but from the
time of their enactment until they (
were repealed. It was not the
overruling Of those cases which
gave validity to the statutes, but {
the cases having been oVerruled,
the statutes must be regarded as
having All the time been the lar
