The st. Louis Court of Appeals
handed down several very interesting
decisions last Tuesday, on questions
concerning the liquor laws of the state.
The first decision was in the case OF
the Bacon club at Neosho. The club
had been prohibited by the Neosho
Circuit Court from selling intoXicat-
ing liquors to it's members, and its
charter had been forfeited for making
such sales. The Court of Appeals af-
firmed the decision of the lower court
and settled the question so often rails
ed in this state heretofore, whether a
club organized for social or other pur-
poses may sell liquor without license.
In the decision, the Court of Appeals
says: "The principle of law that pro-
hihits a labOring man from buying a
drink of liquor in saloon, ought to
prevent wealthy gentlemen from or
ganizing themselves into a corpora.
ton for the purpose of selling it to
their mbers." That is certainly a
sound deliverance, and one which
ought to exercise a wholesome infiu-
ence over other clubs in this state.

Jefferson City Tribune: IA substi-
tute has been adopted in the senate
for the mechanics lien law. 1t gives
sub-contractors and day laborers the
usual power to file liens, but provides
that the parties who furnish material
can only file lien when they have con
tracted with the owner of such prop
erty or his agent. This is different
from the original bill, which divided
the responsibility of paying employees
between the property owner and con-
tractor

In 1912 the old Wing party, in its
exultation of temporary political vic
tory, conceived and passed tariff bill
which was mild measure compared
with the Mckinley act. The so-called
"Whig" or ''Protectiven tariff contin-
ued but four brief years, when it was
supplanted by the revenue tariff of
1916, which was so satisfactory to the
whole country thatit was still further
reduced in 1857. The Wing party did
all in its power to restore the high
protective policy, but in vain, as the
country was too prosperous to admit
standing upon such a platform, went
to pieces in 1852, with Gen. Scott as
its standard-bearer, and disappeared
from the political field. 1t would
seem that another party has under
taken to resurrect and kindle anew
the fires of 1912, by starting out with
the Mckinley idea. The progress OF
American commerce and trade con-
dennis any such extreme measures,
and if we do not very much mistake
the signs of times, the second high
tariff party will meet the sad fate OF
that which went down under the
weight of popular public sentiment,
which will be another case of history
repeating itself.

Ex-President Cleveland's hostility
to silver will almost certainly lead to
the nomination of a Western man for
President next year. The silver and
the tariff issues now go hand in hand
and if the Democrats want to hold the
people who voted with them last No
vemher the standard bearer in 1892
must be as pronounced in favor of free
silver as he is for tariff reduction.

HAWAIIAN INTEREST.
Mission Of DIR. Smith. the Special
Envoy to the United states.

Washington, Nov. DR.. j. Mott
Smith, the Minister of Finance of
Hawaii, arrived in Washington to-
day, accompanied by Z. r. Bishop
of Honolulu, an ex-member of the
Cabinet and at present President of
the Board of Education. DR..
Smith called on Secretary Blaine
this morning. His special mission
is to secure notifications of the
reciprocity treaty between this coun-
try and Hawaii, the operations
of which, so far as Hawaii is con-
cerned, have been seriously affected
by the operations Of the new United
States tariff law. AS this law grants
a bounty to producers of sugar the
benefits heretofore reaped by Hawai-
ian producers from the free admis-
sion of their sugar into the United
States under the provisions of the
treaty are negatived. DR.. Smith will
also call to the attention of the
Secretary the matter of laying a
cable between the United States and
Honolulu. The Hawaiian Govern
ment, he says, is ready to pay sub
sidy to any company establishing 4
cable line between the two countries.
DR.. Smith has been absent from Homo
lulu some years, and returned there
only short time before being dele
gated to come to the United States.
He found on his return that the de-
sire for annexation to the United
States had grown greatly during his
absence. The feeling, he thinks,

The A. c. was not responsible for
Nemo's quotation from the issue of
Nov. 81, 1887, that, 'There are
twice as many houses vacant to-day,
etc." for in November of the same
year, Henry w. Grady, the editor of
the A. c., said: "They (the real
estate men) testify without break,
absolutely without break, that they
have fewer houses on their lists than
they have ever had since they have
been in business. Two of them have
advertised in the last few days for
100 houses, and to-day Mr.. Tally
told me that he actually left his office
because he was bored by people who
wanted to get somewhere to live in
this town. Mr.. Scott told me that
he could put tenants in 500 houses
in 80 days" The houses were not
to be had, Memo.
Memo says, "Windham, Hamlin,
and Frye were good men who did no
harm to themselves, or anyone else"
They were statesmen, first-class
statesmen, Memo.

Now, Memo, what has license done
for Hawaii?
Are you in favor of any changes
in the present license law? If so,
what changes? Do you think the
hours of sale should be shorter! Do
YOU think dealer should sell another
drink to a man when he is already
tipsy, booty, or half seas over?
If a man is made drunk in a saloon
and does financial injury thereby, to
the saloon-keeper or any other per-
son, should the one who made him
drunk be held responsible for the in
jury? Should q dealer be allowed to
sell to minors?
Your opinion, backed by results,
on the above questions may be of
value to the readers of the BULLETIN
and lead to some tangible results.
