THIS DAYS EOlNGS.
EVENING
THOUGHTS ABOUT LePRosY

Attempts to conceal the fact that
our national curse - lcprosy =. is
olormingly prevalent at the present
time, can be productive Of no good.
The only coure, dictated by wisdom,
humanity, and patriotism, is to
accept the fact and adopt prompt
and energetic measures for the sup
preston and ultimate determination
of the evil. We are not inscnsible
TO the difficulties in the way of those
who have the direction of the sani-
tary affairs of the nation, nor are
we inclined to occupy Our time in
raking up loathsome details of q
disagreeable subject or to fill our
space with querulous cavillings about
mismanagement; but are actuated
by sincere desire to assist the
authorities in stemming the torrent
of destruction and saving the race.
The suggestions that we have to
offer concerning leprosy and the
duty of the Government in connec-
ton Herewith are the result of much
thought, and are based on careful
study of all the facts, within our
reach, bearing on the subject. e
The total number of lepers now in
this Kingdom, according to the best
available data, is not less than fifteen
hundred, or between three and four
per cent. of the entire native popn-
lation. OF this number, only about
six hundred and fifty, or considera-
bly, less than one half, are now at
the leper settlement on Molokai.
The balance, with tho exception of
between sixty and seventy in the
branch Hospital at Kakaako, are
scattered throughout the country
and can be found in every district
on every island in the group. How
many of the lepers now at large are
residing in this district, cannot, OF
course, be known with absolute GER
tainty; but the number in and
around Honolulu, at the present
time, can hardly be less than two
hundred, and may be considerably
more. This state of things naturally
causes feeling of uneasiness and
dissatisfaction in the community.
This feeling is evidently on the in
crease, and is likely at no distant
day to culminate in such popular
demand for the arrest and segrega-
ton of lepers as would be impossi-
ble to resist.
Under these circumstances the
duty of the Board of Health is plain.
The isolation of all persons afflicted
with this disease has been for years,
and is now, the avowed policy of the
Government. The obligations OF
law and of humanity alike demand
that this policy be carried out fully,
faithfully, and impartially. At the
same time all unnecessary harshness
should be avoided, and every posi-,
bic consideration shown for the
feelings, the comfort, and the in.
terests of those who are so upfortu.
nate rs to come within the operation
of the law. The measures which
in our opinion, ought to be adopted
we shall indicate in our next issue

OUR correspondent, j. H., yester-
day mentioned ia his letter the case
of a young stallion which had been
brutally ill-treated. We have made
further inquiries and are satisfied
that the police ought to be instruct
ed to find out the offender, and have
him heavily punished for such wan
ton cruelty to a dumb animal.

Yesterday one of the most valuable
provisions of the new liquor law was
put into operation. A warning was
servdd on all saloon keepers and
sellers of Intoxicating liquor not to
sell or give any of the same to a
young man who lately as our readers
are aware attempted suicide under
the inhunce of liquor.

A GREAT deal Of the blocking of
traffic in our streets is done by ,pri-

of shop door, while an unfortunate
shopman is compelled to go out and
exhibit his wares to the occupant in
the street. This is not the custom
in any other country, and should
not be in this, especially rs our
streets are SO narrow.

THERE would be no difficulty, we
opine, in segregating lepers, if those
who lived near them or found them
around were to report them to the
Board Of Health or the Deputy Mar
shal or whosoever's business it is to
attend to the matter. We feel quite
sure that. the names of the inform
ants would be kept secret. And
while people are making so much
noise about the presence of lepers
they could easily. get rid of them in
this way, or throw the entire blame
on the Government and its officials.
