the merchants would only cease
paying it out to their customers for
change. If they persist in keeping
il ailoat, customers will either have
to decline taking the condemned
currency or take the trouble of
carrying all the odd dollars, halves
and quarters they get of it to the
Treasury for exchange The mer-
chants will, however, probably solve
the question by doing what appears
to he the reasonable and right thing
on their part.

Our brave iiremen will pardon us
for the opinion that they would do
more effective work by playing
lower than they do in fighting fire.
When water is thrown on the top of
a fire, most of its efficacy flies up
ward in steam, but when it is thrown
into the lowest area of combustion
the rising steam does as much in
putting out the flames above as the
water does beneath. The most
experienced iiremen in cities abroad
invariably fight fire from the bot
tom upward.

HOPE FOR the SUFFERER.

Our Government bears upon its
shoulders responsibility, which, if
not altogether peculiar to this coun-
try, is not common to most other
countries. What constitutes this
special responsibility is the presence
of q contagious disease, generally
believed to be incurable. The dilli-
Guilty of dealing with this evil is COM
menuratc with the responsibility it
imposes. This latter fact is too fire.
quently ignored by critics. The law
of the land demands segregation,
and, so long as the dogma of posi-
tive and absolute incurability passes
rs an axiom, this will probably be
accepted as the only method of
stopping the spread and eXtinguish-
ing the existence of this pitiless
enemy. As corollary of the dogma
just now referred to, there is a dis
position on the part of the intelli-
gent public to regard the rigid
enforcement of the law to scgrcgatc
rs the first and last duty of the
Board of Health. Although fully
and mreservedly endorsing q policy
of strict and uncompromising segrc-
CATION, we venture the opinion that
the incurability theory has been too
hastily adopted. 1t should be said,
however, in justice to the present
administration, that the possibility
of cure has been practically admitted
by securing the services of compe-
tent scientist, to investigate and ex-
pertinent, with the view of discover
ing Il remedy.
In an article on this subject, the
BULLETIN of Feb. Sth, 1888, cx-
pressed the following opinion -
"We have always considered it one
of the first duties of the Hawaiian
Government to do everything posi-
bic for the absolute obliteration of
this loathsome disease, not merely
by isolating the afflicted ones and
thereby causing it in time to run
itself out for want of fresh material
on which to subsist, but by using
every means to discover q positive
cure for the malady. We do not
subscribe to the popular notion, that
because nobody has hitherto dis
covered remedy nobody ever will
discover one, or that because all
past attempts to cure have been in
effectual all future attempts must
necessarily share like fate. AS
the world grows older, knowledge
increases and new discoveries are
being made daily. Many things
that were considered impossibilitics
q few years ago are now accepted
facts. We do not assert that leprosy
is durable, but we do say that its
absolute incurability is not mathe-
matically proven; and until such
incontrovertible evidence is forth
coming it is the duty Of the Govern
ment, rs conscrvator of the public
good, to seek industriously and
persevcringly for an antidote to the
great evil. We do not see how this
duty can be better performed than
by engaging gentleman of scien-
tifc cast of mind and scientific
attainments, and withal an enthusiast
in his profession, to devote his entire
time and attention to this one matter.
If remedy there be, we look for its
discovery, not to blind cmpiricism,

1t is suspected that good deal of
illicit liquor distilling is prevalent in
the out districts. The only remedy
we can support is the unconditional
suppression of the offence. 1t has
not its origin in the necessities of the
people, but in the cupidity of the
lawless operators. Contrary TO the
apparent view of our correspondent,
which we know many share with
him, we should prefer grog-selling
in spite of law than by the sanction
of law. If the law of 1882 is good
so far as it goes, then its mere
passage was so much gained for the
right, its even partial enforcement
is so much better and its thorough
enforcement is what is due from the
authorities.

Some of our retail merchants claim
to have a grievance in wholesale men
selling smallparcels of goods to con-
sumers at lower prices, even, than
the retailers can afford to sell the
same merchandise for. Such prac-
tice is certainly not legitimate trade,
and, unless the Chamber of Com
merce can find means to put an end
TO it, some day there may be combi-
nations of retailers to do their own
importing, which would entail serious
consequences to the wholesale guild.

foreign silver coin called in, referred
