Every man who signs his name to

signs the death warrant to Mr. Dill
lingham's success abroad. Every
thinking man knows it. There are
many people in this community, who
are waiting eagerly for his return,
knowing that if successful in his mis-
sion, it means honest work and
honest pay to hundreds of laboring
men in our midst, who can thereby
make for themselves a comfortable
existence to say the least. Hawaii
has been her own worst enemy more
than once in recent history. Will
she go down to a suicides grave at

If the cable is built by a lottery
company, the United States will not
allow the end to land on their shores.
If the bulk Of our mail matter is
known to be lottery mail, it will not
be allowed to land at any port in the
United States. 1t will be watched
and excluded as etfectually as Chi
nose immigration. The scheme is
not feasible, and the fool-killer is
liable to step our way.
If we are to become the byeword
of the civilized world we don't want
to become its laughing stock 1t
would be a pretty sight to see the
world holding its nose with one hand
and pointing at us with the other.
