PORTUGUESE COLONY.

What THE STAR has expected
for some time has come i'll the form
of strong letter from Godfrey F.
Alfonso, of Hilo. 1t is a reply to
the unwarranted structures passed
upon the Hawaiian Portuguese
colony by Thos. G. Shearman III
the American Mission Board quar-
rel about these islands. The refer
ence by Mr.. Sherman was in the
words that the Portuguese here
were "a mongrel race who never
saw Portugal, but who speak
something resembling the language
of that country" The word
mongrel here is cruel, insulting,
unjust and entirely incorrect. The
general fling at peaceful, law
abiding and industrious people is
a Islander of the vilest stripe.
There are in Hawaii above 5000
Portuguese. Perhaps IS per cent
are Hawaiian born or trained. The
immigrants came to the Islands
from continental Portugal, from the
Azores and Madeira, with a
very few from Cape Verde. Now,
the Portuguese in Europe are de-
seconded from the Goths and Latins
and are a noble race. Portugal
acquired the Azores and Madeira
in the fourteenth century and sen,
to the colonies its best blood. A,
the time these places were dis
covered by Portuguese navigator'
they were uninhabited. The popu
lation to this day is pure Portu
guese. And they are proud OF theii
nationality as their brothers a
home and in Hawaii and are
credit to their mother country il
every way.
Just why the language OF the
Colonial Portuguese is offensive tC
Mr.. Shearman is hard to fathom. |
may have undergone slight changes
in few hundred years after being
transplanted, but what Of it
There are Portuguese in thu
United States who have in all like
lihood taken Mr.. Sherman to task
before this. There are large mum
bers of them on various localities
and they are excellent citizens
without exception.

FORTUNES IN FRUIT STANDS.
Big Money In Small business by Eco
nomical Italians.


Few of the thoughtless passersby and
chance patrons of the corner fruit stands
on the city streets realize the compare
lively large profits reaped by those who
have their capital invested in this APP
parently insignificant business. To the
average onlookor as he casts a careless
glance at the vender of fruit and candy
probably the only thought that occurs
Is that here is poor unfortunate for
Igner cast on our shores, who manages
>; this simple means to exc out a liv-
ing for himself and large family of
small children. Indeed closer inspec-
ton into the comfortless lives of these
seekers for gain, involving long hours
spent in continued application to work,
the short remaining time passed i'll
squalid homes or ON the streets, would
reveal little of the true state of affairs.
There is vast difference in the indi-
cations from outward appearances.
Some of them carry an air of prosperity
in neatness of dress and carelessness of
air. Others seem to wish to advertise
their poverty by a show of battered gar
ments and generally destitute appear
anoe. but in general those appearances
are deceitful. The man in rags may or
dinarily be regarded as more fortunate
than his apparently prosperous brother,
He is making more because it is not SO
much what is made in profits as what IL
saved, and in a small business, like that
of the corner fruit dealers, this general
principle is especially true.
The amount of the gains possible TO
the astute dealers is seen from few ex-
amples of unusual prosperity. A short
time ago an Italian who had been in
the business on a down town corner for
ten years closed out his business to
successor, receiving from him 50. 200 for
the privilege of his location. This
amount he added to fortune of $780,
900 already accumulated. In the stock
yards region similar sale was made in
consideration of $3.50. In the same
neighborhood the death recently of
veteran in the business revealed the fact
that he had been possessed of property
amounting to $4,000. Some Of our
largest business blocks, notably on State
and Halsted streets, are now owned by
those who started in business in this

There are indications that an era of
speculation in gold mining stocks is rap
idly approaching The great cheapening
Of silver has directed renewed attention
to the most precious of metals. and there
has been remarkable increase in its
production during the past year. Cheap
er and better machinery has been in
vented, and new and more effective
processes of treating ores are being con-
stantly discovered In consequence
mines that were long ago abandoned as
worthless have been reopened, and new
ones are being located everywhere in the
gold bearing regions, Under the new
order of things great deal more capt.
tai is required, and since comparatively
few individuals can be found able or
willing to take the risk of mining in
vestments stock companies must be
formed. The result may soon be that
the market will be flooded with mining

THE Board of Health is doing
well to direct its energetic atten-
ton to the treatment of leprosy.
Walter Murray Gibson and able
publicists before and after him felt
that no expense was too great or
effort too laborious in campaigning
against the ailment. That leprosy
can be wiped out is the firm con-
viction of those who have given the
subject attention. That this Gov
ernment should spare no effort in
this direction is a universal senti-
ment.

gave dance at the large rice ware
house of Mr.. Jos. Broussard. DR..
r. NJ. Walker, ably assisted by Mr..

arrangements for the dance, and to
these two gentlemen more than to
anyone else is credit due for this
great social success. The floor was
nicely waxed for the dances, the
room was we'll seated and lighted,
and the music was very good.
There were at least two hundred
present. who participated in the
evenings enjoyment until the wee
sma' hours of the night. The young
folks Of Duson will doubtless follow
up this success with another dance
shortly. 1t is to be hoped So

Prohibition for Lafayette.
PINHoOk, La, July 81,

I1NHoOk, La, July 81, 1895.
Mr.. ED1TOR-I heard that at its
last session the Police Jury adopted
a resolution which says that should
one fifth of the voters of this parish
sign petition asking for an cleo
ton on prohibition, that said petit
ton would be entertained.
Doesn't it strike your editorial
mind, Mr.. Editor, that some peo-
pie are getting just a trifle too good
in this parish? Doesn't it look as
if handful Of supervirtuous folks
are just a little previous? For heav-
ems sake what might be the mat
ter with them that they want to
make Of old Lafayette such a
goody-goody place that we'll have
but one step to make to reach the
'sbeautiful Shore" We don't know
for a fact, but it seems to US that
we ale not quite ready for prohibit
ton. If our friends with watery
inclinations will turn their attention
toward other things, they may &C
complish some good, but in all
frankness, they are simply wasting
their angelic sweetness on the des-
ert air when they come forward with
the proposition to make this dry
parish. Prohibition in this parish
would stand as much show as Gro
yer Cleveland in a Populist conven-
tons, or Bob 1ngersoil at a Baptist
camp meeting.
There is not TIE least necessity
for prohibition in Lafayette. For
instance in the town Of Lafay
there is perhaps less liquor drunk
than in any other town in Louis
lana. We have had too many cleo
tons in the past few years and the
voters should not be annoyed I'M
necessarily.
If they want to make people tenn
rcrate let them do SO by m oral pur-
suasion, but not by prohibitory
laws, which are not adapted to the
soil of this parish. They will never
grow here. They can not take
root. Our people are too liberal
minded to saddle such ridiculous
law upon themselves.
LIBERTY.
