CORRESPONDENCE.

The LeprOsy Question.

Mr.. EDITOR: In your leader this
morning you object to my character
Using the dread of leprosy in these
islands unreasonable" If am I'M
derstood to mean that it is unreason-
able to regard the disease as a most
dreadful calamity, just as one would
regard it as most dreadful death to
be engulfed in the fiery lake at
Kilauea, the language is unfortunate.
But as I should hold it to be unreal
sonable land this is the general
opinion) for the Government in it's
zeal for the public safety to forbid any
one to descend into the crater, so it
seems to me to be unreasonable for
persons to be haunted with the fear of
leprosy, and to imagine that they are
in imminent danger so long as a
single person with a faint of the dis
ease is abroad. The proofs that
leprosy is communicated by con-
tagion are wanting (see McTebb's
letter published in the Daily Bulletin
in September 2d). Nevertheless, I am
not opposed to segregation. Nor is
there anything in my address to the
Synod from which this could be in
ferced. But [ am not in favor of
wholesale indiscriminate segregation
as now practiced. 1t is not necessary
to segregation that those who are
segregated should be massed together
to create a hOt-bed of the disease.
Segregation is necessary for these rea-
sons: l. Because it is only in asylums
that remedial systems can be effectu-
ally carried out. 2. Because, though
the disease is not in the ordinary
sense contagious, as e. g., ringworms,
yet being conveyed by incubation, it
would, in advanced cases, be a source
of danger to the healthy, if sufferers
were permitted to mingle freely with
the public. 3. To keep away from
public view those distressing objects
whose features are half destroyed, on
the same ground as persons rendered
unacceptable from cancer or erisyp-
elias should be kept indoors. But, as
far as my study of the question has
gone, it seems to me wholly unneces-
sary on the ground of public health,
land, if so, it becomes an uncOnstitu-
tiOnal interference with the liberty of
the subject) to segregate those in
whom the disease appears in " the
simply paretic (paralytic) form,
which, wrote DR.. Hillebrand in 1865,
81 have frequently enough observed
on the islands, but NEVER RECoG-
NIzED AS LEPROUs." (Leprosy in Ha-
wall, p. 25). ALFRED WILLIS.

latter, the amount of damage sus-
tanned by the government is a matter
OF evidence. In this case it would be
the difference between the price at
which Mr.. Lucas had agreed to do
the work, and the price which the
minister had to pay to get it done bv
someone else, or in the neighborhood
of $500.
If Mr.. Spencer chose to waive this
claim against Mr.. Lucas, it was en-
tIrely voluntary on his part. AS to
the quality of the iron used in the
building, which is alleged to have
been "mean," whatever that NAV
mean, am not judge. First class
material was called for, and a compe-
tant englneercertified to a compliance
with the conditions before it was
shipped from England. Remedving
any misfit joints does not appear to
nave cost the Government ANYTHING,
as the contractors paid for it.
AS 10 the location of the building,
which Mr.. Spencer says he wishes
was IN TOphet, the legislature of 1888
approved of the locality for elaborate
reasons given at the time.
The legislature of 1890, under the
leadership of Mr.. Spencer, appointed
special committee to investigate the
subject of location of the market. and
no doubt Mr.. Spencer at that time in
dictated to them his preference as to
location, but, evidently, they pre-
ferred the prosaic neighborhood of the
Esplanade.
AS to inability to lay concrete
hoor, it is unnecessary to do so, and
the estimates were based on the use
OF bituminous or asphalt rock, which
costs but a fraction of the price of
cement, and answers the purpose
equally we'll, allowing the entire
floor to be flushed, being less liable to
crack and cheaper to repair. It is
being used for factory and depot floor
ing throughout California with the
best results. The floor of the O. r.
and l.. Co.'s Round House is made of
this material. 1t has been in constant
use for over a year, and is in good
condition.
AS to the inability to erect stalls,
there is no reason why spaces in the
market should not be rented, with
the agreement that the lessees paw
for their own fittings, the work being
done under the supervision and ac-
cording to plans approved by the
of Public Works.

EDITOR ADVERTISER: In YOU
interview with the Minister of the
Interior concerning the new market
he says that although Mr.. Lucas haC
put in a bid to erect the market fol
$4,000, he, Lucas, had refused tc
carry out his bid before I left office,
and further that he could not compel
Lucas to carry it out, because there
was no penalty provided.
Mr.. Spencer has been misinformed
as to his facts, and, evidently, has
not been informed at all as to the law
of contracts.
AS matter of fact Mr.. Lucas did
not refuse to carry out the contract
before / left office.
AS matter of law, it made no diff
ference whether he refused or not,
either before or after; or whether a
penalty was provided in the call for
tenders or not.
In answer to an advertised call for
tenders, Mr.. Lucas made the Min
lister of the Interior an offer in writ
ing to do certain work. The Min
lister, in writing, accepted his offer.
This constitutes valid contract,
which the Minister could enforce.
The only difference between the in
sertion of a penalty in the call for
tenders and the non-insertion thereof,
Is, that in the former case, the
amount to be forfeited, in case the
contractor fails to execute the work,
s specified beforehand; while in the

Mr.. Barnes of Honolulu.

Mr. EDITOR: [ am obliged to vol
for calling attention to certain state
ments l made in presenting a resolu
ton on the leprosy question to the
Anglican Synod. The attitude you
take in this mornings editorial only
confirms my belief that the true con-
dItion of the leper settlement is but
little known. If any statements of
mine result in an impartial inquiry,
my object in ~ aking them will have
been attained.
But, to take your objections in de-
tail, certainly am not opposed to
any segregation, nor did I anticipate
That any such construction could be
placed upon my words. Separation
OF the victims from society is, unhap-
PLY, an essential part of any true
system of meeting this di0ease. But,
While one mnthod vi segregation NAV
he preventive; another may be the re-
verse, and my claim is that the
method pursued here is one that
might do very we'll for a barbarous
age, but is totally out of place in a
civilized country at the close of the
nineteenth century. A case in point
will be a sufficient reply, I hope, to
your second objection. On the occa-
sion OF the visit of Her Majesty the
Queen to the settlement, little girl,
bright and healthy-looking, was
brought to me by her friends. To nv
establishment | was assured she was
an inmate of the Bishop Home. The
only sign of disease apparent was the
contraction of two fingers; and yet
there are many who visited the settle
ment that day in whose memories the
aspect of other children in the home
will remain the saddest of all expert
ences. That is what I mean.
A phrase l used, not unadvisedly, as
descriptive of the social and moral
condition of the Settlement, you dis
approve of. [ am sorry, but until it
is shown to be wrong by those who
know, [ cannot withdraw it. I do not
think the devoted workers on the spot
will consider [ have over stated the |
case.
If it were not the boIdest thing in |
the world to offer advice to a Journal |
st, L would like to make a sugges-
ton. Let the editors of Honolulu |
papers make q pilgrimage to the spot,
stay there at least two or three days, |
see everything and talk with every
body competent to give information,
md then come back and publish their
faithfully and unresery-
Idly. If the result of their investiga-
ions do not produce even stronger
language than any used, [ for one
Will be very much surprised.

Those Photographs Again,

Mr.. EDITOR: AS probably diff.
ferent people hold different views
concerning what is and what is
not gentlemanly" conduct, [ beg
to say that from the days OF
Junius down to our own it has been
the custom to criticize the public con-
duct of official men without anv
obligation to disclose ones individu-
aI1ty. 1t matters not who am so
long as my remarks are confined to
public acts. The private character,

and Douglas.
should like to say word or two
concerning the emotional clap-trap of
considering man innocent of crime
until he is proved guilty. This is
principle for courts of justice not for
private conduct. Anybody round
about the Police Court ought to know
that it is usual to arrest man first
and try him after. If it be wrong to
deprive man of his liberty without
proof, why should Douglas and
Bloom object to return to Sydney?
They might have said, tive are limo
cent-nothing is proven against us,
lay no hand upon us-we are Free"
Is 1t the custom of Englishmen- and
the tradition of that country to Shake
hands with men whose photographs
are known to be in the rogues' album
Or the MarshaPs pocket? Is it glori-
Gus to ignore a responsible charge of
vlllainy because the scoundrels have
eluded the police? Is the Marshal so

ner of things with ESQ? Or does he
imagine that men of means will steal
so paltry sum and buy yachts and
assume false names to avoid restitu- |
ton?
Such f1imsy reasoning NAV serve |
the Marshal and his men for mutual |
consolation, but the thoughtful-nay
the thoughtless outside of the Office
refuse to be cajoled with such trans.
parent nonsense.
The cordiality subsisting between
Douglas and Bloom on the one hand
and the men that knew what thew
We're, was indecent and outrageous,
and cannot be palliated by platitudes
or generalities, nor by any impudent
assertion of British justice. These
men, it was believed, had committed

same time, the fact that a still more
heinous crime was known by the
MarshaFs second clerk to be laid to
their charge, was no excuse for his
placing what petty obstacles it was
m his power to raise in the way of
gentlemen in the exercise of their
1utles. 1t is my opinion that this
conduct was the fulfilment of a pre-
determined course of action; and I
believe that the whole business is, on
