Broks laws, Dow laws, and many
other restrictive laws have all failed to

above noted have served TO agitate
the rum question and school the peo-

All temperance people will event

the car of fate. The world moves.
Civilization took an advanced step,
where and when, slavery was abol-

Temperance agitation is not what
it used to be, when moral suasion
was its only weapon. Temperance
is now aggressive and has mounted
the highest round of the temperance
ladder. 1t is now welding the great
weapon, "Prohibition" against the

EDITOR BULLETIN:-It appears to
be impracticable to build Il tramway
in the streets of Honolulu and to
leave out the principal thoroughfare.
This will not do, But in order to
avoid accidents, l would suggest
that the Minister of Interior issue
a regulation (if he has the power to
do SOY that all carriages have to
keep on their right side, which will
prevent the meeting of carriages on
the same side of the tramway.
IL the Minister has not the power,

that effect. Y

ANOTHER ASPECT or THE PASS
PORT QUESTION.

Mn. EpIToR In the various
newspaper articles which have ap-
peared, commenting on the pass
port system, generally unfayorably,
and expressing the opinion that it is
odious, ] have never seen it no.
ticed that it detains, or may detain,
for their debts classes of persons
who are not liable for debt, viz,
minors and married women. 1t
must be considered that the pass
port system was provided to secure
the payment OF debts and not for
revenue. Look at the sixth clause
of the amendment to Sec. GIG of the
Civil Code, found at page 1876 of
the Compiled Laws, and you will
find that person stopping pass
port must show that q suit has been
commenced to enforce the claim or
debt within ten days after notice to
stop the passport. Section Col
makes the master of the vessel TAX
ing passenger without a passport
liable for the debts which such per-
son may have left unpaid in this
Kingdom, and to the payment of a
| fine besides.
/ sometimes smile when see the
crowd of wives and children depart
ing, mostly for n vacation, by our
monthly steamers, rs | remember
that pater familas must have paid
for everyone the passport dollar
that they may not be detained for
debts which they are not liable for
and which cannot be collected from
| them.
If these impossible debtors were
freed from this unpleasant tax,
more than half of the trouble would
be removed.
l think the practice of requiring
passports from them has arisen from
too narrow and literal construc-
ton of the term "Every person. "
A reasonable construction in view
of the object of the law as plainly
expressed by many provisions
which | have not quoted, viz: the
collection of debts from persons
who are leaving our jurisdiction
would be "every person who is LA
bic to pay debts"
Look at the effect of Section Gas
if applied to every person for whom
now passports are required. "Eyery
person who shall depart from any
port in the Kingdom with the inten
ton of leaving the same, withou
first obtaining passport shall b'
subject TO 4 fine not exceeding on,
hundred dollars in the discretion o
the Court" For although the deb
of your child may not be collected
from him, he may be fined Con hi.
return) if he gets away from th'
Kingdom without passport.
Perhaps then it is not within th
true and legal intent of the law t
require passports from "every per
son. but no one cares to be at TIL
great inconvenience and expense to
of testing the question. An amend
ment of the law only in respect
: above indicated could not be OF
| jected to by those who wish to pre-
! serve their security for cellectin
debts. l.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 18, 1888.
DEATH TO PASSPORTS,

But few people will deny that
tourist travel to these islands is q
benefit, directly or indirectly, to
this entire community; that the
greater the travel, the greater the
benefit; that such are the peculiar
features of the country, that if they
were more extensively known
abroad, they would attract tourists
to it in greater numbers than hith-
erto; and that therefore judicious
advertising of the country is wise
and profitable thing to do. But
there is one impediment to people
coming here which should first be
removed. This impeachment is
among our statutory enactments,
and it is in the power of the Legis-
lature to remove it, without the eX-
penditure of one cent of money.
We refer to the laws which compel
the payment of two-dollar tax on
entering the country and the pro-
curing passport before leaving it.
In neither case does the amount OF
money constitute the ground of OBJ
lection, but the principle involved.
With regard to the passport sys-
TEN, there is that about it which is
repulsive to free men. Americans
and Englishmen are not accustomed
to passports in their own countries,
and when they come in contact with
them abroad, they at once get the
idea that they have reached des-
potic air, and they do not like it,.
1t is a fact that our passport system
prevents people coming to the coun-
try-some, at least-which the fol-
lowing extract from private letter
written at San Francisco by n former
resident of Honolulu, and recently
received, shows:-

tice makes against people going

port startled them. They declared
that they had lately had some pass
port experiences on the continen
of Europe, which made them avesr'
to going to any country where
passport is required. All my at

harmless thing at Honolulu had nc

The other day the Legislator
voted a sum of money for adyerti
ing this country abroad, with III
view of inducing people to CON
here. 1t is to be hoped that til
same Legislature will have the goo
sense to support Mr.. Hitchcock
bill to abolish passports, and thu
throw down this barrier in the wa
of free travel.

who took part in the interesting pro-
gramme had evidently studied long and
earnestly, and in consequence everything
went off to the satisfaction of all con-
cerned. The exercises commenced with
a march, and this was followed by a
responsive exercise and prayer. Maud
Hunter and Sadie Hare gave interesting
Rotations, and song and chorus by
George Hare and the Band was
followed by recitations by George o.
borne and frankie Gillelen. A dialogu Q
entitled "The Drunkard's Daughter" was
next given by Laura Longley, Julia Sea-

Fannie Shipstone and Nina Young. The
first part was concluded by vocal solo
by George Hare and piano solo by Paul

recitation by Ella Newell, a solo by

followed by dialogue in which Rosa

DRAGGED BY THE NECK,
A Chinese Driver OF a Laundry
WAGON.

Wagon.
One of the drivers of 10y KEGS laundry
wagons has neck which will come very
handy to him if he should ever be hung.
Yesterday afternoon about O'Clock the
big horse attached to the wagon which
this man was driving ran ava, and tore
down Second street from Hill to Fort at
lively rate. The Chinaman kept per-
fectly cool, and was seen saving away
industriously at the horses mouth with
the lines. AS they neared the corner he
turned the horse sharply, and the wagon
was whirled almost on it's side. The
Chinaman was flung out and the reins
fell from his hands to catch around his
head. For the next two or three hum
dred feet he was jerked along by the
neck, bobbing up and down back of the
horses heels and under the wheels of the
wagon. Some workman stopped the
horse and the driver was disentangled
from the reins and fshed out. Those
who had watched the affair had no ex-
pectation of finding him alive, and he
was so badly strangled that it was some
moments before he could speak. How
it could happen that neither his head nor
his neck were broken, was a mystery.
He shook himself together and climbed
into the seat. The bystanders warned
him to look out, as the horse was still
painting with excitement, but he paid no
heed, and in a moment more was DASH
ing down Fort street at a full run. He
managed to turn the horse into Main
street and run him up against a telephone
pole, where he stopped and cooled off.

that President Cleveland has admins

For instance, although there has been
an increase in the amount of customs
revenue collected, the cost of collection
per 500 has decreased from n under
Republican rule to 81 "a. This is but
one fact out of the many which might be
cited in proof of the excellent admins.
