Thirty Days Required BY Law
Between DatesB But Six
teen Allowed .l5f

The fact that, under the provisions of
Acts . and 5 of the present legislature,
only sixteen days will elapse between
the date Of the primary election in Ho,
nolulu, TO be he'll May ~, and the date
of the city and county election, set for
June 5, while already existing laws pro
vide that thirty days must elapse be.
'weeu the two elections, is causing con.
siderable comment and much uneasiness
in certain political quarters. tr' ..&
The charge, indeed, is made that
here is q nefarious intent on the part
Of a certain element Of the Legislature
o keep the present administration Of
the City and County Of Honolulu in
Office and that for this reason that ele.
ment, though knowing that, on account
Of the conflict of laws, no election held
here this year would be legal, is care
fully refraining from remedying the de
feet in the laws.
This charge, however, is fatty denied
by Legislative leaders who have been
looking after the proposed city and
county charter and various election
bills. Representative Andrews said yes,
terday that he did not believe the al
legged conflict Of laws actually existeai
he thought the laws passed during the
present session covered the point men.
ioned. ~ H tW
Deputy City and County Attorney
Cristy expressed the opinion that the
law requiring thirty days between the
primary and city and county elections
was repealed by implication, though he
WASH Z sure but that IL might be better
TO have it more explicitly repealed.
Andrews declared emphatically tina
here was no intention of doing any
hing that would leave the present mu
nieipal administration in Office. He
nggested that 20 avoid any possible
conflict of laws relating to the elections,
II might be well If someone would in
troduce bin specifically covering the
point in doubt. f
Another difficulty which was pointed
out by Gristy Isl that until il is known
whether or not the charter bill is tC
become law, and if so, what officers are
to be elected, the clerk cannot issue an
election proclamation, as he doesn 7 yet
know the election of what officers to
proclaim. '":

Terms Of Old Treaty Said To
Operate To Keep Them
..gss. off Vessels

Acting Under what is said unofficial.
Iy to be Article XII of treaty made
with Germany in 1871, orders were is
sued yesterday morning to forbid any
American government official from go.
ing on the German refugee ships with.
out consulting the German representa-.
tive here. at
This order was issued by Collector
Of tile Port Malcolm Franklin on in,
strnctions which were transmitted TO
him from higher authority which he
would not reveal
The absurdity of the situation is
hat the order applies to government
officials only and not 70 private in
dividuals. Nor does IL apply in any
way to the crews but leaves them al
liberty to go whore they choose, leay.
ing and returning 20 the vessel at will.
Collector Franklin stated yesterday
that every one leaving the German
ships, or going on board was being
searched by his orders, but there were
many authenticated incidents of mem
bers Of the crews of the ships at Pier
!, both leaving and going to their ships
yesterday, who were not searched.
Mr. Franklin would quote from bis
otter of instructions only the few
words which covered this particular
chase which were TO the general effect
hat anybody will be allowed TO 60
aboard the German refugee ships ex-
sept American government officials
These can only 90 on board after they
have notified the Spanish consul, VIII
'epresents Germany now, giving the
lime at which the visit is going to take
place.
As the government officials have nc
iesire to visit the vessels except Il
stop an offense against the laws, the
respect of waiting until these formal
ties can be observed is laughable.
Mr.. Franklin stated yesterday, also
hat the rules would not affect gov
rnment officer going aboard in pur
,uanee of his duty by which he meant

would have the entry TO the ships nm
Ter routine circumstances. The dis
Elimination therefore seems to rest
against the harbor officials of the ter
