The Evening Bulletin complains at length about Judge Humphreys and Attorney General Knox, labeling their campaign as bitter and malicious. It accuses the publication’s opponents of failing to prove their assertions and describes the campaign as a Washington and Hawaii-wide disgrace.
A scanned 19th century editorial transcript shows Judge Humphreys defending his public stance in a heated political dispute. He condemns partisan newspaper coverage, warns of a cover up in court records, and calls for swift actions to remove judges deemed unfit. The document cites Governor Dole and a controversial grand jury ruling amid postbellum tensions.
Fragmented notes allege factional politicians and Thurston figures discuss Humphreys link to the Dole administration and Swilel stockade. A roving reporter cites a Washington dispatch and a potential inquiry into the Dole era.
A contentious writ from Bane correspondent argues that Thurston’s faction attempts to smear Humphreys by manipulating New York Tribune and Washington correspondents. It claims officials’ dispatches reflect department positions, not Humphreys or Hankey, and asserts Thurston’s drive to corrupt Territory governance amid Dole administration pressures.
A historical report notes Hawaii Supreme Court’s stance on applying the United States Constitution to Hawaiian law after annexation. It discusses the Newlands Resolution provision and whether Hawaiian statutes remained in force, except where limited by federal constitutional requirements. The piece critiques the court’s reasoning on grand jury indictments and preservation of judicial power amid legal tensions.
A brief note describes rapid cane handling in Hilo with a method to load cane onto carts. It mentions two men and equipment for lifting cane from the ground near New Orleans, Kennedy supervising and the aim to prevent loss of cane during weathering.
A fragmentary notice reports an engagement amid a murky political milieu. Names and roles are garbled, with references to individuals and factions, a legal or contractual angle, and shifting affiliations. The readable items indicate social ties intersecting with local power structures, but specifics are obscured.
