Cycler TerrilI Going East.

W. A. Terrill, the fast class B racer
of San Francisco, is to ride on the
Eastern circuit this year. When NJ.
f. Dirnberger and j. P. Bliss, the
Eastern cracker-iacks, came to the
Coast last spring to train they were
very much impressed with the speed
shown by Terrill. This year Dim
berger is manager of the Syracuse
team, and while looking around for
material to complete the team he re-
membered the young Californian,
and telegrsphed him an offer which
Terrill has accepted. He has in
structions to report at Louisville,
KY, May 15:
It will be remembered that Terrill
spent some time in Honolulu in com
pany with Griffith. He showed good
speed while riding here, and during
his stay made many friends who will
hear with pleasure of his good for
tune.

ONE OF THE SIGNS OF THETIMES,

We clip the following from re,
cent number of the San Francisco
Chronicle. The world does move
When California legislature can
pass such law as that referred to,
and San Francisco daily has the
courage to approve and applaud its
provisions, temperance reform is not
entirely hopeless.
SANITARY DISTRICTS.
"a bill passed by the last Legisla-
ture, regarding the creation of sani-
tsry districts and powers of the
sanitary boards of such districts,
contains this provision-'T from
and after the passage of this act no
at retail shall take effect or be opera
tive within any sanitary district un-
less the same be approved by the
sanitary board of the district.'''
''Well, why not? IF the residents
OF sanitary district do not want a
liquor saloon within their bailiwick,
Why should one or more be forced
upon them? The privilege of sell
ing liquor is no more a natural right
than the privilege of selling any
thing else to which a portion of the
community may have deep rooted
aversion. The people are, or should
be supreme In matters of this sort,
and If a majority of the residents of
a sanitary district decide against the
of saloons within that |
district, the will of the majority
should govern, as in others matters. !
"In this country we are often too !
of the wishes Of the |
majority. The majority, conscious
of It's strength, is usually quiet, self.
contained and conservative. The
is loud, self assertive and
aggressive, and has the art of put
ting itself in the light of being ag-
yrieved and injured unless things go
It's way. Selling liquor is no more
occupation than selling
gunpowder or morphine or strych-
zine, and if community objects to
he sale OF liquor its viii should be
aw."-W. G. 7. y.

JUNE RACE MEETING.
Programme of Eleven Events with
Substantial Purses.

Elsewhere in this issue appears
the programme of the 18th of June
races. 1t is pleasing to note that
substantial purses are offered. This
fact should be the means of giving
decided impetus to the meeting.
The day will commence at 10
AN. with a mile dash bicycle race
for gold medal valued at $40; fol-
lowed by a five-mile event for gold
medal valued at $50. Both these
races are free for all. The pro-
gramme contains eleven events,
made up of bicycIe, running, trot-
ing and pacing races, the aggregate
purses amounting to $3.50. En-
tries will close on June 9th.
The infusion of new blood into
the Jockey Club has already made
itself felt, and it is hoped still fur
Their Improvements will be made.
There is one crying evil which
demands immediate attention, and
though it may be somewhat of a
new departure in Honolulu, it is
nevertheless much desired by the
general public. Reference is made
to the obsolete custom of contract
ing out the programme and allow
ing them to be sold for the exor-
bitant price of % cents. 1t is not
the mere question of spending the
amount, but the principle involved.
The cost of printing few hundred
programmes is slight, and an organ
ization like the Hawaiian Jockey
Club could we'll afford to circulate
them among the patrons of the
races without charge.
More horses will come to the track
during this and next week. Those
already there are in good condition,
and, with the desirable improve
ments which have been made to
the track, the June meeting of 1895
gives promise of eclipsing any held
for several years.

Note That the War

Is over, and it is the duty OF every citizen
to support the existing form of govern
ment. Although things may not move
with the cordially that would insure an
everlasting peace, still they may be al
lowed to subside into that Indifference
without animosity, that would allow
either party to work out their best
interests.
All things considered it may be for the
best, but time, the only arbitrator in such
cases, must alone decide that. J. G.

your work in shape and at figures that

A Letter From Denver.

To the Editors OF the DExocR.T:
promised you an account of my trip
to this place, and will do so briefly. As
you are aware, our train Was four hours
late at the Bend and we lost one hour
more from there to Colorado Springs,
making US five hours late at this point.
No. was more heavily loaded than ]
had seen it for two years-nearly all
strangers interested in mountain seen
cry, and it afforded me much pleasure
to point out the different places of in
terest on the road after coming in sight
of the Rockies. Nature is a grand ar
chitect, although many of her designs
are yet in the rough. at Monument
there are the representations of old
feudal castles, and in imagination one
can see the face of the Jewish maiden
as she views the battle under the walls
and reports to the wounded prisoner
within; and again We see further on a
group of buildings in the red sandstone
that reminds one of Goldsmith,s DE
serted Village" The mountains are
filed with tourists at this season of the
year and the hotels at the different re-
sorts are having rich harvest.
L spent the day yesterday with II.
J. Klein. He carried his little boy to
the st. Anthony hospital. one of the
largest and best equipped institutions
in the west. The surgeons meet there
at o'clock this morning. and as DIR.
Moffit has requested me to come over,
and it is nearly time, must close.
Regards to friends. W. II. BROWN.

Office to which he aspires. When
the democratic county convention on
July 18th placed in nomination for the
Office of sheriff George Valerius of
Homestead township it made no mis-
take, and selected a man who can
claim as many friends and present as
industrious and honorable a pedigree
as any in the county. Our candidate,
whose portrait is here given, was born
near the city of Fon duLac, in Wiseon-
sin, in 1860. At the age of six years
he moved with his parents to Keokuk
county, Iowa. and there resided on a
farm until sixteen years of age, when
he came to Barton county, locating in
Wheatland township. In 1885 he OPEN
ed blacksmith shop at Millard, having
begun the trade in Iowa: Later he
moved his shop to Hoisington, where
he has since continued in business and
established an extensive reputation as
a skilled workman and an Industrious,
honorable and upright citizen. Mr.
Valerius has an extensive acquaint-
ance all over the north side and the re-
turns from that section next Novem-
Der will speak louder than any encom-
ium we can now pass on him. He is a
pioneer in the true sense, a man who
has always had a helping hand for un-
fortunates and who will gain strength
each day as the canvas progresses.
Voters of Barton county, look above at
the picture of our next sheriff.
