KA LEO O KA LAHUI.

"E Mau ke Ea o ka Aina i ka Pono."

 

A New Police Station.

            The establishment of a police station at Waikiki seems to be a step in the right direction, if sufficiently manned, but four men and one captain are hardly enough.  The offering of good rewards for burglary and other crimes is commendable.

 

A Briber Fined.

            We take the following from the Bulletin’s report of the Kauai Circuit Court:

            Reg. vs. Ah Lai (Ch.) bribery, in paying C.H. Willis, Deputy Sheriff $20, to allowing a lottery game to be unmolested.  Sentenced to pay a fine of $100.  Rosa for defent.

            We regard the presence of Chinese as an evil if it was only for the fact that they are ever on the alert to corrupt officials.  We know that the lottery business flourishes in Honolulu but.

 

A Labor Contract.

            In Monday’s article headed “Riveting the Chains,” we stated among other things on contracts, that they sometimes exist without “even the formalty of signing” them.  A case in point is reported to have been before the term of the Kauai Circuit Court just closed, as reported in the Bulletin of the 16 th as follows:

            Richard Jones, M.D. vs. R Gerke, for medical services in behalf of a Japanese contract laborer of the defendant.  At the close of plaintiff’s testimony plaintiff took a nonsuit, as the obligation on the part of the employer in the contract of the Japanese laborer was not signed, and so no liability was proved on the part of Gerke to pay for medical services.

            Comment is superfluous.  Mr. R Gerke can command the services of his assigned Japanese laborer apparently without incuring any liability to provide medical attendance.  If the contract paper was not signed it surely was not stamped as required by law.

            The government should see that every labor contract and copy, are both stamped, as in nine cases of ten they are not, and thereby the revenue is defrauded by the planter.

 

The Harbor of Honolulu.

            The sudden increase of traffic of the Oceanic steamers, the arrivals of tramp steamers called in to take away our sugars, the expected arrivals of steamers from China and Japan, have caused an unusual activity in our harbor, and have also shown all thinking men, how indispensable are all the projected harbor improvements.  The excavating of the bar, the deeping of the harbor up to the present wharves, and the digging out of the berths to accommodate more large steamers at the same time, are matters of necessity for the future commerce of the port, and are essential to the prosperity of this city, without waiting for the possibilities of the future, for the probabilities of increased steamship lines and of the American canals.  The past reform administration, it must be said to its credit, were not blind to our wants in respect to harbor facilities, and in their budget for the present period, which was servilely copied by the Brown-Cummins administration, they asked the Legislature to provide for a liberal subsidy, which was ungrudgingly granted.  It would therefore, have seemed, that the harbor works would have been, --as they ought to—the very first expenditure of the emasculated Cabinet upon whom devolved the duty of carrying out the wishes of the Legislature.  But instead of starting the works, that Cabinet proved its incapacity by inaction and hoarding of public funds.  For this, in what concerns the harbor improvements, the then Minister of Interior might have had the benefit of the doubt, and have pleaded not to have had the disposition of the necessary funds through the perverseness of the Minister of Finance.  But now, the Minister of Interior of the new cabinet, if there is any business energy in him out to display the same by deeds, not by words and promises as heretofore, with which a great many are familiar.  It is an outrage, for the prosperity of the Country, that nearly a year should have been allowed to elapse since the appropriation was made by the Legislature, and nothing should have been done as yet; if time is money, it may well be applied here in this instance, and such a miserable vacillation in the discharge of a plain duty is more than a waste of money and cannot be compensated.  We, therefore, hope that before the expiration of another decade, we may be enabled to chronicle the beginning of this very necessary improvement to our harbor.  If the work is not done, we will have to dub our friend, the Minister of the Interior, as incompetent, to grasp and to carry on the vital works of the country and to demand for the good of all that he should make room for some one else more capable filling the office.
