Drunkenness

In the last Annual Report Of the Franklin Re-
formatOry Home for Inebriates, of Philadelphia, an
Institution Of modest pretensiOns which has had de-
cided success in the work for which it is designed,
DR.. Harris, the attending physician, expresses some
views in relation to inebriate asylums which are
worth attention. In the Franklin Home the theory
that drunkenness is a disease finds no favor; intem-
perance is looked upon as n sin, n moral evil to be
met with moral means after the applicant by medical
treatment has been placed in a sufficiently sound
physical state to listen to reason and profit 10y
teaching and example. Medication is necessary to
restore the system reduced by excuses, but neither
medicines. hot baths, sulphur baths, nor other means
Of that character are expected 10 cure the patient so
that the desire for alcoholic drinks shall cease. DIR.
Harris believes that the asylum system has not yet
been fully and carefully tested in this country; that
too much attention has been directed to finding cures
for the supposed disease, and not enough to reform
ing the habit of intemperance. He attributes the
difficulties of the asylum system to the fact that the
inmates have no business to occupy them; that many
of them have no sincere desire for reformation; and
to the demoralizing tendency of their association to-
gether. their classification being based rather upon
social grounds than the degree of anxiety or indif-
ference they manifest upon the questions of reform
alton. A powerful influence is exerted upon the
inmates of the Franklin Home by the visits of re-
formed inebriates who have been reclaimed there.
and who regularly devote a part of their time to the
encouragement of those who are endeavoring to
follow their example. During the three years that
the Institution has been in operation, of 372 appli-
cants who have been admitted. 1913 are reported as
reformed, 40 as benefited, and 139 as :" doubtful.
The average time that the inmates had been in the
habit of drinking to excess was six years and seven
months. Representatives of 113 different occupa-
tions, among them clergymen, physicians, and mer-
chants, have availed themselves of the opportunities
afforded by the Home for the work of self-reforma-
ton, under the favorable influences afforded there.

SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER IL

The LIBEL Of the owners of the British iron
ship RGreHstoHdaLe against the British steamship
ACyphrenes for so, 600 damages from the collision
of the latter against the former in the port of
Honolulu on the Odd ult., was brought before
the Chief Justice in Admiralty on the oath. a
large number of witnesses was examined on
both sides. The evidence on the part Of the
shin tended 10 show that she was properly
moored, in a place in which she did not obstruct
navigation, and that the steamer could have
avoided the ship had she obeyed her helm, or had
her anchor and jib not iouled when the orders OF
the pilot were given. The evidence for the
steamer tended to show that the engines worked
well, that the jib and anchor were clear, and
that no one was in fault, unless the ship for being
in the way Of navigation and not rigging in her
iib-boom or the pilot for not giving the proper
orders. The case was argued by Ar. Hartwell
for the Libellants, and Messrs- Preston and
O'HaIloran for the Respondents. The Court
gave its opinion last Monday, pronouncing against
the steamship for full damages. The Chief
Justice in his opinion stated his views fully, on
the broad principle of the law maritime as appli-
cable to the case. The fault of the pilot, under
our statutes, rs well as by maritime law, the Court
held was no excuse for the owners, although in
this case it gave no opinion whether the pilot,
crew or machinery were in fanlt, since the steamer
might have avoided the collision. The Court
construed the statute which requires the rigging
in of the iib-boom, as requiring it only on the
Harbor Masters and Pilots request. The Res
pondents noted an appeal to the full bench

RIDICULE is sometimes more effective than argu-
mcnt. \ two-column editorial on the impurity
of the water-supply of Honolulu through the
Government pipes, would scarcely have created
the sensation nor so firmly persuaded the majority
Of people of the bad condition of the water as did
the rough cartoon that appeared on the street last
Monday, purporting to represent Il drop of
hydrant wator rs seen through a microscope.
While most who saw the sketch enjoyed Il good
laugh at the wit of the artist, some few actually
believed it represented what it pretended to, and
about everybody felt that there was a good deal
of unpalateable truth at the bottom of the joke.
One result has been an inquiry for water-flters
and the suggestion comes from q Good Templar
source that some would find n new excuse for
using a spiritual infusion to present bad effects
from the water. 1t is certainly 4 disagreeable
refection-that which is sure 20 prevent itself
every time one takes n drink Of water from a tap
in this hot weathcr-that myriads of wriggling,
souirming animalculp 90 down ones throat, and,
iudgjng from the color and sediment of the fluid,
a good deal more than the traditional allowance
of pure and impure soil. 1t is we'll that none Of
us are as sensitive or as prejudiced rs was the
Hindu brahmin, Of whom it is related that ne
perished from thirst rather than tOnch water,
after some one had mischievously shown him drop
through the microscope. There are two ways in
which we may get over the difficulty of bad water,
whereby we may curb our imaginat;Ons and afford
tranquility to our stOmachs and these are first,
by carefully fltering our water for drinking pur-
poses, am secondly by boiling it-or both. Says

AN IRRESPONSIBLE BODY.

IL is n eurfGus fact,-not generally known, but
which at this particular %juneture it may be well
TO Law before the public,-that there is no such
body. legally constituted, az the Board of Health
The persons now claiming to be such Board, have
no powers, under the law, and are simply private
individuals. usurping functions which do not
belong 10 them. Section / Of Chapter 80 OF the
Code of Penal Laws of the Kingdom provides
that" There shall be appointed by the King in
PRIV Council, upon the nomination of the Min
;stey of the Interior, q Board of Health for the
Kingdom. consisting of three persons, who shall
serve during the Kings pleasure, and be charged
with the general oversight and care OF the public
health By the Act of 9TH July, 1870, the
Code of Penal Laws from which we copy the
oboye. was " declared to be the law Of the land. y
There has been no legislation on the subject of n
Roard Of Health since 1870. Previous to that
Gear. under a Iaw passed in 1865, the Board Of
Health was composed, as is the present So-caLed
Board. Of the Minister Of the Interior and four
other members, appointed by His Majesty in
CounciI. two OF whom were medical practitioners
on5 two members of the PTiyy Council The
obvious effect of the Act Of 1870, was 10 abolish
the BOARD of Health as then existing, ana to pro-
vide for the creation OF n new Board oil three
persons, on the nomination oil the Minister oI tHe
interior. This mas not been done, and cOnse-
ouantly there is no legal Board OF Health IN ex-
istence. 1t follows, as a logical result that the
recent prosecution and imprisonment OF Dr. 30
boheer by the agent Of the SO-cGHed Board was 4
tresnass. and that all the rules and mandates
emanatine from those gentlemen are only SO

Capital and Labor.

A writer of some repQte on topics Of social eco
nomy, j. K. Ingalls,, lately delivered q lecture before
the Liberal Club of New York on the ethics and
equities of the relations between labor and wealth.
He stated that in a previous lecture he had attempted
to show that the method of distributing the wealth
created by labor was not in accordance with any
principle in economics; that it was simply q blind
expedient. He now would take up the question as
related to morals and the rights and duties of mem
bers of 4 society where the theory of government ID
'' the quality of all before the law" The lecturer
did not consider the right of life or personal freedom
secondary to the right Of property, and his highest
duty is to respect the rights of his fellow-men; his
dearest right is the right to perform his duty. With
respect to labor. he said, We have a principle in the
basis of civil law that property in a thing rests upon
the ground that it is the result Of ones efforts, toll
and self-denial, and the question of capital is elimi-
mated, We should have the assent of society that the
whole of this production belonged to the laborers
who produced it. Hence, to the laborer belongs that
which he has produced. Now the capitalist has
taken risks and assumed responsibilities and he is
entitled to all the results of any operation, minus 4
fair remuneration for the services employed. But
now, is not the laborer also entitled to a remunera-
ton for the capital which he ~employs2 The final
issue he thought to be found in the condition Of the
business world through the application of the prin~
ciples of profit, or gain which does not return service
for service; that the money is now heavily in the
hands of those who hold the securities for which it is
exchanged. When We teach " Thou shalt not steal''
the service of another, We may have some hope that
the more complex requirements of our moral nature
be respected.
