THE CONSEQUENCES OF GAMBLING

The dastardly outrage in which
the baseball scandals has culmin-
ated, should be a lesson to every
man interested in maintaining the
sport. The trouble springs as
everybody knows, from the practice
of betting on the games, an evil
which seems to have been steadily
gaining ground. The betting of
outsiders is bad enough, but it
cannot be prevented, though the
openness of it can and should be
checked. The betting of players,
however, is much grosser evil,
which must be suppressed, if the
game is not to be handed over to
the rufianly classes. The betting
by players can be stopped if the
players themselves have character
and honor enough to maintain
high sentiment on the subject.
The rules of the League forbid
such betting, and the rules should
be enforced. If Honolulu is not
large enough to supply twenty
seven young men to play ball who
are honorable as well as athletic,
then let the game be abandoned
until the moral tone of the city
rises.
We do not mean to imply that
all those players who have bet
hitherto are without the sentiment
of honor. Doubtless some of them
have been merely thoughtless or
reckless. But they are now confront
ed with the consequences of their
thoughtlessness, and these conse-
quences threaten the existence of
baseball, as a worthy and manly
sport, among US. Now, what are
these young men going to do about
it? If they are going to let the
game be wrecked because they have
not self-restraint enough to check
their gambling propensities and
conform to rules which they make
themselves, and which they know
to be reasonable and necessary,
then this community will be COM
PEELED to entertain a very poor
opinion of their moral calibre.
A word with regard to the Ka-
mehameha nine will not be out
of order. There is no evidence
that they or any of them bought"
the game, and the committee APP
pointed by the League has so found.
Some betting has doubtless been
done, but in all probability the Ka-
mehameha's share Of it has been

THE argument against Hawaiian
annexation, because the islands
are not contiguous territory, might
properly be illuminated by bring
ing into consideration the question,
would it be right for the United
States to annex Canada because it
is contiguous territory? Minister
Stevens argued that contiguity by
water was as essential an element
in determining the question of an
nexation as contiguity of land.
But it is evident that contiguity,
taken by itself, is not a determin-
ing factor, one way or the other.
The argument for annexation, as
the argument for overthrowing the
Hawaiian monarchy, rests up
en- a different basis than physical
and material considerations. Will
the United States be best able to
realise its historic mission by
the absorption of the islands, or by
guaranteeing their independence,
or by keeping the islands in state
of political ferment from the at
tempts of irresponsible adventures
to get control of the Government
to foster their private schemes of
individual aggrandizement? We
who favor annexation hold most
emphatically that the frst-named
course is the logical and necessary
outcome of the situation.

THE current issue of the Paradise
of the Pacific is a very attractive
number, and one which reflects
great credit on the management.
1t is very evident that the owners
do not intend to sit still with the
Government subsidy in their pock-
cts. but are determined to give a
full quid pro quo. The paper is
illustrated with a number of pretty
half-tones ordered from San Fran
cisco, and is made up almost en-
tirely of original matter, including
several excellent articles especially
prepared for the purpose. A series
of articles on domestic industries
is begun, all of which are to be
from the pens of local experts, and
these will do much to disseminate
useful information abroad and at
tract capital here. Edited in this
enterprising manner, the journal
cannot fail to widen its influence
with every fresh number.

change in the heading was made with
the full approval of the residents Of
those districts, and not on account Of
any local prejudices or feelings, but
because it seemed best to US all to be-
gin the new work on proper grades at
Papaikou, which is how at the era of
q fairly good road for wagons, and
continue the good road through the
districts north of here, with every
mile of road built opening new coun-

fitting the thickly settled portion of

pressed in your letter l agree, and the

THE Bulletin criticises the franz
ers of the Constitution for incor-
porating in it matters which belong
to ordinary legislation, such as the
provisions concerning the registra-
ton of voters. 1t fOrgets that pro-
visions of some particularly were
necessary for the regulation of the
first registration election, before
the Legislature could make any
laws. For obvious reasons it was
undesirable to leave large amount
of important legislation to the
Councils. AS to the alleged haste
with which the Constitution was
passed, it is sufficient to draw at
tention to the great care with
which it was drawn. and to the
fact that in its main outlines, it is
not new, but reproduces provisions
which have long been law, here or
abroad.

account of the great changes
which have lately taken place at

Thurston. Mr.. Thurston is a care
full observer of volcanic pheno-

CONCERNING BASEBALL.
blame.

1t will be very unfortunate if the
quarrel regarding the bribery of
Pitcher Wood leads to breaking
up Of the League. At present it
seems as though the refusal of the
Kamehamehas to play the game
over again would have that result.
The anger of the Crescents does
not abate, and unless the game is
played again, they declare that
their nine will withdraw from the
League.
This is apparently one of those
unhappy controversies in which
both parties are wrong. The re-
fusal of the Kamehamehas to call
the game off is technically justi-
fed, but it is not generous, and it
is certainly singular that a nine
holding the strong position which
they do cannot find it in their
hearts to be generous. 1t being
conceded that the game was sold
to someone, it becomes perfectly
clear that it could not have been
fairly won, since it was not fairly
lost. Of course this is not a point
which the baseball rules can take
into account, but young men play
ing for sport and for glory are not
compelled to stand SO nicely upon
their rights, and to refuse a trifing
favor because it is not so nomin-
ated in the bond.
On the other hand the determin-
alton of the Crescents to break up
the League ifthey cannot have their
own way is a piece of childishness
of which in their sober moments
they ought to be heartily ashamed.
They owe their defeat to nobody
but themselves. They were be-
trayed, not by an enemy, but by
their own familiar pitcher in whom
they trusted. They have preju-
diced their cause and alienated the
sympathies of the public by betting
thus violating the rules of the
Association-and also by paying
their pitcher. They are not enti-
tied to have the game declared off |
as a matter of right, and they are
not justified in sulking because
they cannot get it declared off as
matter of favor.
The controversy will end in
breaking up the League unless
both sides cultivate spirit of con-
ciliation. Some action should be
taken against the betting, which
lies at the root of the whole trouble,
and the young men who play
should pledge themselves to con-
form to the rules on this head.
Then a new start can be made
with clean hands, and the game
which caused the trouble be played
over again.

The water famine creates a
desire for ice cream; hard
times kills the desire to buy it.
The economists in the United
States have produced freezers
so simple in construction that
anyone can freeze their cream
at home at a trifing cost.
Competition between the
manufacturers of the "Gem"
and the white Mountain"
the standard treezers, has
been so close of late that we
can sell you a "Gem" at a
very low price. A book of
receipts goes with each free
ger and person who can read
and who has an A. B. c..
knowledge of turning cranks
can make delicious creams or
sherberts. The "Gem" is not
one of the new tangled ar
rangements that freezes
cream without preparation or
cranks, but a bona fide freezer
of "a regular pattern. They
are built upon aplan, however,
which requires the least
amount of labor to produce
good results.
The Clauss Bread Knives
remains at the head of all the
knife family for cutting bread
or cake and we sell them for
a dollar a set, the same price
charged in New York or
Chicago. If you are interest
ed in this sort of knife now is
the time to get what you
want.
A new supply of cheap
stand lamps in new designs
will probably please you if
you use lamps. These are
different from any we have
ever had and the prices have
been McKinleyed.
If you have not examined

chine you have missed some
thing interesting; it's the only
in the world that
sews three stitches by merely
turning a thumb screw.

Ou HAWAII anu was DrOuSuC OUT
by letter that was recently pub
lished in this journal:
Mr.. A. B. LoBENsTEIN.
DEAR SIR:-I have carefully read
the letter to the editor of the HAWAI-
IAN GAZETTE that you left with me
to be revised or forwarded as written
by you for publication. 1 have made
two changes that / am sure you will
approve of on second thought. You
said in your letter, 'The road through
the Hilo district, between Hilo and
Honomu can well afford to be rele-
gated to the future,n etc. This
L changed to read, "Between Hilo
and Papaikou, can never afford"
ETC., as you must have forgotten
for the moment the exceedingly bad
road beginning at Papaikou, crossing
the lavas of Paihoaloa and Kalaoa,
the Leinahapuna gulch, and steep,
shoe-loosening, horse killing climb out
of the Onomea and Kawainui gulches,
and the bad crossings between Kulai-
manu- and Honomu, and the steep and
narrow roads across Honomu and
Kolekole gulches, all the places 1
mention being, as you know, utterly
impossible for wheeled vehicles of
any kind whatever, and must remain
so until the grades are changed, no
matter what may be done in the way
of filling up mud holes and throwing
out loose stones.
You said in your letter. "But from
Honomu or Hakalau on to Laupahoe-
hoe means the construction of an en-
tirely new graded road" This /
changed to read, "But from Papaikou
on to Laupahoehoe means the con-
struction of an almost entirely new
graded road"
In what you say of the expenditure
during the last "ten years on the sec
ton lying between the Waikiki river
and Hakalau, distance of AT miles,
the district road taxes of about $4,000
per annum, besides liberal amounts
from biennial appropriations" you are
not quite correct, as all the work
that has been done on the streets of
HilO, the grading and matchmaking
of Jail, Pleasant, School, Kalepolepo,
and Front streets, and the care of
about seven miles of the new Volcano
road, and all other work on the Hilo
streets, and the necessary tools, ami
mails and stables have been paid for
out of the funds you mention. There
have also been built during the last
seven years the steel bridge at Homo
lii, costing with the approaches about
81 900, and modern bridges across a
number of streams.
Pukihae, 80 feet span.
Kapui, so feet span; approaches
raised.

raised.

trestle bridges at Wainaku and Ku- |

bridges across other streams.
After all these Improvements had
been paid for, there remained a very |
small amount for road building be-
tween the streams and for improving
the grades.

morning with pair of contribu-
tions to the Hilo road question
from Messrs. Loebenstein and
Goodale. 1t is very evident from
these communications that the
claims of the roads in both direc-

only way to solve the problem, and
at the same time prevent revolu-
ton in the Hilo district, is to build
both.

COULD HE BE BARRED?
MIR. Wydlcr Wants TO Vote, but
Could Not Get Registered.

A letter addressed to President Martin
and signed by Adolph S. Wydler. of 249
East SiXtieth street, was read at a
meeting of the Police Board this after
noon.
The letter called the attention OF the
Board to an alleged delinquency on the
part of election inspectors In the Second
Election District Of the Twentieth AS
sembly District
Mr.. Wydler stated that he appeared
at the place of registration at $40 this
morning with a number of others to
register, and that all were Informed by
the Chairman of the Board Of Inspectors
that they were not yet ready to receive
names for registration.
MIR. Wydler alleged that the same
thing had occurred last year. and he
asked the Commissioners II he could
legally be debarred from voting. in the
event that he might be absent from the
city or, become physically disabled
during the next registration days.
The matter was referred to Gen.
Rodcnbaugh, of the Bureau of Elections,
with directions to make a thorough in
vestigation of the complaint.

HAS he LEFT GRACE?
Report Of a Split Between Fair
child and the E1-Maysr.
Trouble Said to Be Due to the Third
Ticket Talk.
K. NJ. Shepard Roasts Grace's Man
Scott and Others.

The very latest sensation in q political
way IL report that ex-Secretary of
the Treasury Charles 8. Fairchild and
ex-Mayor William r. Grace have fallen
out, and that their differences of opin-
ion may cause a row in the State De-
mocracy.
The question of third State ticket
appears to be the rock upon which the
State Democracy has split. but there
is a rumor also to the effect that ex-
Mayor Grace's alleged deals with Tam
many leaders has had not a little to do
with the trouble.
According to the terms of the alleged
deal between Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Grace,
the latter undertook to kill of the third
ticket movement, and It is a matter Of
general knowledge that he succeeded, In
so far that the County Convention of
the State Democracy, the delegates to
which We're supposed to be ardently in
favor of third ticket, took absolutely
no notice OF the attempts made to put
one in the field.
Mr. Grace and Mr.. Fairchild haven't
met as often as usual since that con-
vention was held, and that they have at
last reached the parting OF the ways
seems evident from a remark made this
afternoon by Edward NJ Shepard, who
wants to run Mr.. Fa!rchild for Governor
on his third ticket.
1t had been suggested to Mr.. SHEPARD
that as the Grace Fairchild people were
reported to have entered into a deal with
Mr.. Hill and Tammany Hall 1t was not
likely that they would permit Mr.. Fair
child to make the race and so imner!l
Hills chances OF success. His atten-
ton was called to the following remark
made by Francis NJ. Scott:
II don't think there is anything in
this talk OF third ticket. From what
know OF Charles s. Fairchild. am
certain that he would not lend his name
to any such movement. In fact, l am
sure he will not be a candidate for
Governor on the Shepard ticket"
II wish" replied Mr.. Shepard, that
the State Democracy would pull itself
1t has fallen by reason OF these deals
with Tammany Hall. The leader you
mention has neither right nor authority
to speak concerning what Mr.. Fairchild
may or may not do. He has no means
OF ascertaining, Mr. Fairchild's attitude
In this natter
The fact that neither Mr.. Grace nor
to the conference, coupled with Mr..
Shepard's remark concerning Francis

ant, demonstrates how serious is the
break between the men who were
formerly such stanch political friends.

its head for Mayor.
Mayor G!lroy arrived at the City Hall
at 1890 O'Clock this morning. He said
there would be no meeting OF the Tam

cal outlook he said:

Other Tammany politicians professed
to have information on this point. Some
OF them said this morning that the

adjourned till the end of the week so
that the Tammany leaders might know
just what they would have to contend
against.
