"Curly' Harrison Says Harris Major
ity Will be the Largest in
the State.

Col. J. N. Harrison of Ottawa, better
known as Curly Harrison, was in the
city a while yesterday Curly Har-
rison is chairman of the Second district
Republican congressional committee
and was manager of the Jack Harris
campaign at the late Lawrence conven-
ton.
According to Col Harrison, the dis
satisfaction arising from the nOmina-
ton of Harris at Lawrence, and the set
back received by the Buchan fellows
viii not be sufficient to defeat Jack
Harris or come anywhere near doing
it. Col. Harrison says he has been in a.
number of counties of the district since
the convention and that there is no
doubt that Harris majority will be an
immense one. Why" says Curly"
II viii wager with anyone that Jack
viii be elected by a higher majority
than any other congressional candidate
in the state. The Buchan fellows may
be sore now, but they viii get over it,
and if they do not, they cannot beat
Jack Harris, anyway"
1t is mainly due to Harrison that
Harris was nominated. Curly worked
early and late for his man and left
nothing undone which would contribute
to a successful issue of his plans.

USE THE MICROSCOPE.
Says DR.. J. L. Gilbert IN the Interest
OF Public Health.

In his paper before the State Medical
society on Municipal Medicine, DIT J.
L. Gilbert of Topeka said:
In the past the highest function of
the doctor in common parlance was to
cure disease. Today the highest ex-
hibitiOn of professional skill is not only
to stay the raVageS of disease but to
check or eradicate the epidemic In
order to do this he must not only be a
man of great professional attachments
but he must receive the moral and fl
nancial support of the state and local
government.
Tt is only recently that the profess
sion has come to look at the cOnclu-
siOns of the investigators as settled
facts and it is still more recent that
our legislators or city fathers have
considered it wisdom to listen to prac-
teal suggestions concerning the best
methods by which to combat epidem-
les; only recently that they have learn
ed that the words, hygiene and quar-
antine are words that mean something
more than to frighten off evil spirits;
that cOntagiOn and infection are quite
synonymous terms.
Boards of health endeavOr to re-
fleet both the sentiment of a crudeIy
educated public and an educated sci
entihc profession, and the result is that
they often don't represent anything at
all but a political machine.
Educate the public. Hygiene should
be taught in the public schools. Not
that kind of hygiene that teaches that
cles and organs and that alcohol con-
tainS a snake and tobacco q poison.
Rather teach that while alcohol and
tobacco are detrimental to health there
are many things equally if not more
injurious to heath. Teach that the
consumptive who expectorates on the
street and in public places not only
does not cure his own disease but adds
untold misery to the world Teach that
the consumptive who expectorates on
the street and in public places not only
does not cure his own disease but adds
untold misery to the world Teach that
the child with a sore throat may be the
means of sending the dark angel into
many households. Teach that cleanli-
ness is next to godliness.
Many things of much less Importance
are taught in the public schools.
Then our boards Of health may lead
instead of being led.
Quarantine can only be effectively
maintained either by force or by the
hearty cooperation and educated sup
port of the Quarantined. But quaran-
tine should not be instituted until the
physician is sure through microscopic
examination that it is absolutely nee

fined in the state reformatory for lar

So 1893, and sentenced to the peniten-

afterward removed to the state re-

The crime for which the boy was SEN

ran away, riding his pony till the ami

horse near by, removed his saddle and

try. This is a precaution against
the disastrous competition OF
Oriental labor, when released from
contract service, with both skilled
and unskilled labor of nationali-
ties forming the citizenship of the
country. But it is a precaution
that cannot be used against
the japanese, owing to the treaty
relations between this country
and Japan. This is doubtless the
motive of the Government in
Stacking down on japanese immi-
grafton while increasing the in
PRODUCTION of Chinese. There
should not he any feeling of a
slight on the part of the Japanese
authorities on this score. The
internal economy of this country
must not be regulated from Japan.
That would be too extreme an
exaction of international friend
ship, besides a flying in the face of
the recognizedAmerican patronage
Of this country. Leaving aside
the question of obtaining supplies
of labor other than Oriental, in
the particular matter here dis
cussed the Governments policy is
certainly one to be approved by
the people at large. When all
this is said, however, the fact re-
mains that the Government has
not by any means cut off japanese
immigration. And the japanese
who come now are likely to be of
the best class obtainable, owing to
the high character of some of the
companies in rivalry for supply
ing the demand.

OUR VISITOR.

IL WOull 5CSlu thtO We Wv NV
ourselves regard the islands i'm
portant as a resort for people of
leisure. Here is a distinguished
statesman out of service, with
means to go and stay where he
pleases, come to visit the islands.
Moreover, statesman to whose
official attention, while holding
the chief diplomatic position in
the country with which we have
the most intimate relations, was
brought one of the greatest crises
that ever arose in Hawaii. Forth
with the air rings with con-
lectures about the object of his visit.
Has he come to estimate the prac
ticsbility of annexation, in the
event of his party's winning the
executive as well as the legislative
control in his nation, which seems
probable? Or is he here to pro-
mote a cable scheme ? Even ii
his errand has any great political
or commercial significance, Mr..
Foster is hardly likely to let it
out, at least for while-say, uu-
til he RECEIVERS his land legs after
the sea voyage. 1t may be
taken for certain, however, that
he is not another "Paramounp
agent of the administration that
has yet four months to run in the
United States. 1t is the humble
opinion of the BULLETIN that the
visit of So able and distinguished
an American statesman to Hawaii
cannot but have results of the ut
most importance to the future re
lations of this country with the
United States. Particularly, when
taken in connection with the pro-
liability already noted OF his
party's early coming to rule that
mighty nation. Yet this does not
need that he should bear
public commission. 1t goes
without saying, in view of
Mr.. Fosters great experience and
fac public record, that of all the
public men who have ever come
here fron the United States, none
can make a more correct estimate
of the Hawaiian situation, or form
a more intelligent opinion of the
true international relations of the
two countries, than can he. Meth
or mere appearances presented to
his eye nor any extravaganza talk
Of factions held to his ear will be
likely to deceive a diplomat
of his long trained perception.
Mr.. Foster will soon size up the
local Asiatic question here, in its
cross-w woven relation to our lead
ing industry and to annexation
the cardinal point of doctrine in
the constitution of this republic.
While thus far we have no right
to assume that Mr.. Foster has
come here for any other purpose
than rest and change of climate,
we may be allowed to feel no
small amount of qualification that
such a man is sojourner in our
fair isles, for the fund of exact
information and accurate opinion
which he is certain to carry hence.
1t would be premature now, how
ever, to forecast results upon that
score. Let us be Immediately
glad to realize that the islands
have attractions for SO eminent
visitor, all the more so that his
example is not unlikely to prove
contagious when his opinions,
which are bound to be widely
sought and candidly given, upon
our climate aad health and pleas
ure resources shall have been
published.

ETC.

mere IS d certain nlgnly
respected citizen of Honolulu
who has a fondneSs for rice
pudding. He has INDUCED
this fondneSS to such an in
ordinate degree that he has for
years INDUCED in cold rice
pudding upon his return home
from his lodge. When he was
going to be out more than
usually late he would tell his
good wife and the cold pud-
ding was always left on the
Sideboard for him. The other
night he was kept out later
than usual at a Masonic ban
quet, but on returning home,
in the dim light left burning
low, he spied his favorite dish
and ate the contents. The
next morning his wife missed
seven lace collars she had left
in the starch over night, and
she is now threatening to sue
for limited divorce, not be-
cause OF the loss of her collars
but because her husband says
that they tasted just like her
best buildings. However, the
husband has made his peace
with his better half and there
will be no divorce, unlesss it
happens again.
The way he did it was to
go 10 the Hawaiian Hardware
Company's store and order
one of their recently imported
ENAMELED IRON PORTABLE
BATH TUBS sent home. His
good wife was so pleased that
she forgave him on the spot.
These bath tubs must be seen
to be appreciated. They are
the handSomest yet put on the
market and they are not very
expensive. Being raised from
the floor on legs like a stove
no moisture can accumulate
underneath to attract cock
reaches and beetles. These
tubs are provided with hand
some nickel-plated fittings.
To 60 with them we have
imported specially some nickel
plated double bath cocks for
hot and cold water with COM
bination soap trays. The
beauty of this novelty is that
the hot and cold water runs
out of the same faucet, either
separately or together, and
there is no danger of Scalding
your toes as so often happens
in turning on the hot water
separately.
