crowds of half-intoxicated brawlers,

Apologlsts Of the free liquor law
admit the increase of public drunk
enness, but hold that there is COR
responding decrease of secret drink
ing and home carousing and de-
bauchery. They are ignorant Of
what they talk about. The fact is,
there has been as great, if not
greater, growth of the secret evil.
And this is worse than the other,
because it embraces and dcbauches
women and children.
Officials may sit in their offices,
merchants in their counting houses,
and editors at their desks, and walk
or drive between their places of duty
and their places of residence, for
years, without gaining the faintest
idea of the sad results of the free
liquor law among the Hawaiian peo-
pie. But few months, weeks, or
even days personal experience ac-
quired by visitation of their homes
and observation of their habits, will
convince an honest truth-seeliing
man, that there is no eXaggeration
in the foregoing.
There was never yet an aboriginal
race allowed free use of the white
mans iirc-waler, which was not en-.
slaved or ruined thereby, either
wholly or in part, and there is
every indication that future ages
will not be able to point to the Ha-
waiian rs an exception.

IS 1T WISE OR FO0LiSh2

Has the legislation OF this coun-
try regulating the sale and use of
intoXicants been wise or foolish! !!
Until three or four years ago it was
unlawful to sell liquids of an intoxi-
eating nature to native Hawaiians.
The foreigner of any nationality was
at liberty to buy and imbibe without
restraint. The abrogation of the
restrictive law, four years ago, and
the enactment of statute which
made intoXicants as free to the man
of native blood and birth as to the
man from another country, were be-
lieved or said by some to be wise
and enlightened measures, while
others held that they were acts of
folly that would prove injurious to,
and destructive of. the Hawaiian
people.
Certainly, the law, as it was, was
partial. 1t bore the stigma of class
legislation, and in country where
all are supposed to he free and
equal" legislation of that particu-
lar nature is not consistent with the
supposition. According to this
theory, then, what was done was
hight. As to the correctness of the
theory, that is another question.
and a question supportable by plain
facts and strong arguments on the
negative side.
But this is not the question now
up for discussion. Was the legisla-
ton referred to wise or foolish! Its
wisdom or its folly must he decided
by its results. This is the only
common-sense method of settling
the matter satisfactorily to the
practical mind. How has the free
liquor law affected the Hawaiian: !:
Has legalizing its use to him induced
him to use it? or has he declined to
avail himself of the freedom allowed! !
or, availing himself of the right to
use intoXicants, does he maintain the
character of sober man, or has he
acquired habits of intemperance
Putting it in slightly different
form, admitting that prohibition did
not entirely prohibit and that Ha-
waiians procured and used intoxi-
eating liquors under the old law, has
the new law been productive OF
greater use and IN increase OF
drunkenness.
Any man who has lived few
years in the country, has moved
among the natives, and was familiar
with their habits before the removal
of restriction as well AS since, will
find no difficulty in answering these
questions. If he be an honest and
candid man he will confess that free
liquor has been curse to the native
people, and is doing sad work
of decentralization and destruction
among them.
1t cannot be truihfully denied
that large proportion OF the weekly
earnings of the laboring classes that
should be, and formerly WAS, eS-
pended on food, clothes, and other
necessaries and comforts of life,
now goes to the liquor saloon.
Many a poor wife and many an ill
clad child are robbed OF proper sup
port to satisfy the thirst for strong
drink. Let anyone walk along
Nuuanu street, between King and
Hotel streets, and along Hotel
street. from Nuuanu to Fort street,
any tine between the hours OF 7
and IL of Saturday night, and he
will see what becomes of consider
able portion Of the weeks hard

Summer Drinks for the Country.
Farmers Review.

little cider vinegar, sugar and dash
of ginger added to water makes pala-
table and refreshing drink even at tenn
perature at which water alone would be
nauseating. A tablespoonful of oatmeal
stirred into pint of water also makes
nourishing and palatable drink. When
used in the field the oatmeal and water
should be kept separate and only mixed
as a drink is needed. The juices of any
of our small fruit, canned or bottled and
added to water at the rate Of two or three
tablespoonful to a pint of water also
makes palatable drink, but as in the
case of oatmeal the mixing should be
done Immediately before drinking. But
termilk, to those who relish it, makes a
cooling and refreshing drink when fresh.
Lemonade is always in order but would
be regarded by many as too expensive for
regular use. Sweet milk either whole or
skinned, is also refreshing and nour-
ishing drink in the field, as is also cold
coffee without milk, and with OF without
sugar.

virtue. She said she had rather be sent
