In a bustling Honolulu bulletin, Thurston and his associates spar over political mischief and public works. The piece touches on insurance, emigration, and the planned modernization of government buildings, with critiques of legal figures and references to Secretary Cooper and the Acting Governor.
The text derides free delivery as unnecessary, mocks the Post Office and institution, and critiques clerical salaries tied to the system. It references a concerned public mood and laments the slow, ponderous reasoning of authorities while arguing for or against reform.
A fragment discusses Workman's view of character versus honesty in political life, noting emphasis on loyalty, factional advantage, and social barriers. It implies a debate over whose opinions merit consideration and the impact of political expediency on integrity.
The Bulletin apologizes to Juntions Frear and Percy for reporting that two students now on Hawaii's Supreme Court did not overrule the U S Supreme Court. The piece lauds law students for prompt action and condemns what it calls the majority’s disregard for constitutional rights, urging appeal to higher courts and stressing justice over dollars.
A short piece argues for cooperation between clerks and employers to aid Mercantile interests over strife. It endorses Merchants Association as the proper body to address holiday wage issues and day closing. It suggests clerks who disagree should seek other positions and calls for an agreement pleasing to payroll end of week.
The text argues Hawaiian businessmen may quietly accept the territorial income tax ruling, claiming Hawaii alone on the American scene boasts a court that upholds the tax. It questions whether the Territory’s people are ready to endure such unjust taxation and notes the law relies on the income of a poor man to fund it, while pondering who will act in Cooper’s absence.
