The special Legislative Com

Two sessions last week, one on
Wednesday when the liquor deal

pint committee of the Y. M. @. A.
and w. G. Il. U. were heard. The
suggestions of the liquor dealers

&c, embodying the main points OF
Rev. Mr.. Peck's proposition.
In accordance with the wish OF

have been received from citizens,
which will be given publication

still more.
Precedence is given to the

Total 80. lO0U 1901
Showing an increase of convic-
tons of 299.
Seventy-six percent of the
total convictions for drunken
ness were obtained in the Dis
trict Court of Honolulu: to wit,
1865, an increase of 271 during
the years 1894 and 1895 over
those convicted of this offence in
1892 and 1898, and mainly among
Hawaiians, who constituted more
than half of those convicted.
These figures show for them
selves.
Not deeming that total Prohibi-
ton is possible at present,nor pro-
hibition to Hawaiians and Polyne.
SLAMS alone, l do not discuss
these questions. Others will pres
ent plans for regulating the traffic
according to the system adopted
in Norway and other countries. 1
am afraid of all of them. What
we need is a steady curtailing of
the facilities and allurements to
drink, to be begun in the Legis-
lature of 1896 and followed up
persistently by subsequent Legis-
latures.
My experience and observation
in Honolulu for over thirty years
lead me to suggest few practical
reforms and which l am hopeful
will be agreed to by the Legisla-
ture, and Temperance people
ought to be content with them ac-
cording to the maxim that "Half
a loaf is better than no bread"
suggest as follows:
1.-The time in week days
during which intoxicating drinks
may be legally sold should be
shortened to the hours between 6
o'clock A. NJ. and 6 o'clock p. NJ.
Twelve hours ought to be suffi-
cient in which to drink liquor
daily.
2-There should be but one en-
trance to each saloon. No back
doors.
3-No screens or distractions
of any kind should be
allowed before doors or win
dows, which will prevent a
clear view of the bar from those
passing along the street.
4.-No pictures, chairs or tables,
nor games or sports of any kind,
or music should be allowed in the
saloons. Remove all outside at
fractions from these places and
the patronage will lessen.
5.-No sales should be allowed
in the retailing saloons except by
the glass, and the liquor should
be drank on the premises.
1t is the bottle taken home to
the Hawaiian family that does the
harm. Yours respectfully,
A. +. JUDD.

Timely Topics

President Kruger of the
Transvaal republic is one of
the greatest diplomats in the
world. He is a living proof of
the fact that in rare instances
the diplomatist is born, not
made. He is ignorant of let
tiers and the elegancieS of life
and his range of reading is
very limited, but the old Boer
possesses qualities that enable
him to cope with the cleverest
of the trained diplomatists of
England.
The attention of the whole
civilized world is now riveted
on this man and his doingS.
His every act is reported in the
London and New York papers
by able special correspondents
detailed for the purpose.
Here in this little republic of
fly-Specks on the great Pacific
we are so far from the arena
in which the present great
game of diplomacy is being
carried on, and our means of
getting news from the outside
world are so few and far be-
tween, that we have more time
to attend to our own and our
neighbours business-eSpecially
the latter, if all reports are true.
We want to call the atten-
ton of readers of the Bull
LETIN this week to something
which not only interests them
but their neighbors also. 1t is
to an article called CARBO-
LINEUM AVENARlUS. We
believe those are Latin words
but we don't know and we
don't care. We know the ar
ticle is good for the purpose it
is used, and that is all that
concerns us.
Carbolineum AvenariuS is
used for preserving wood
against all insects, rot, fungus,
etc, and it does the business
in great shape. 1t is applied
the same as paint and is in a
convenient and handy form
for use. We had a lot of this
valuable compound some time
ago but the demand was so
great when people got to know
about it that our stock was
soon exhausted. We have
plenty on hand now, however,
to supply everybody.
In building houses this pre-
paration is invaluable for coat
ing plates, mudsillS and any
lumber which is liable to come
in contact with moisture. 1t
is excellent to preserve the ends
of fence posts and telephone
poles. Railway ties coated
with it last twice as long as
without it.
Nearly everyone is troubled
with borerS about their prem
Uses. These pests will not
touch any woodwork that has
once been coated with Carbo-
lineum AvenariuS. Five dol
lars invested in this prepara-
ton will save $500 worth Of
lumber.
This is not a new preparation.
1t has been in extensive use in
Europe and the United States
for twelve years past, where it
is gaining favor as its merits
become better known.

SYNODICAl LAWS


ST. Louis. Sept. ll.-Among the laws
promulgated by the synod of the u
i.ouis Catholic archdiocese held IN
this city this week was one promote
inv Catholic singers becoming mem
hers OF the choirs of churches OF other
denominations.
The enactment Of this law has
caused general surprise and comment
~ local church choir circles. as for
many years past some OF the
best voices in the choirs OF fro-
testant churches have been recruited
from Catholic ranks Heretofore
there has been no open opposition To
this. and it was not suspected for .
moment that the matter would DC
made a question of church discipline
but the rigid law enacted by the
priests in synod assembled put new
! iight on the subject. Those most dl'
rectly interested say that II Is mat
ter OF business with them: a por'
ton Of their incomes i derived from
the exercise of their vocal talents. and
they have no intention Of surrender
ing il.
The law prohibiting the sending Q
Catholic children TO other than paro
chial or other Catholic schools ha
also aroused large amount OF op
position among the more liberal o
the Catholic faith.

TOXIC. Japan, Aug 20, via San Fran
cisco. sept. 10. During the first half
OF the current year Japan's imports
from abroad exceeded her exports by
nearly 27,O00. oO0 yen. A preponder-
encc OF imports is by no means "a new
feature Of Japan's foreign trade, but
nothing on SO large a scale has been
previously reported. The causes are
apparent, namely. on the one hand.
the flush Of prosperity that always
follows victorious war; and, on the
other hand. the dull state OF the
American market.
During the war great sums 81 money
were spent in the country. and large
profits accrued To the farming ana In
dustrial classes, so tina. the pnrchas-
ing power OF the people at large de-
veloped considerably. keen demand
for imported goods naturally ensured
As TO the export trade. however, II
depends largely upon the mood OF The
American nation, Japan's chief Gus
toner for tea and silk. and since
Americas gold and silver uncertain
ties cripple her dealings all round, her
sufferings are wildly reelected IN the
Japanese export trade.
A new link between Russia ana
4 China has been forged by the arrange
ment that the steamers of the Russian
volunteer fleet. plyi.g between

forth call at Shanghai. There are IL
OF these steamers and, excluding the

Of such vessels To and irc

the ease with which she could graou-

At the same time experts are well

the orient is greatly overestimated oy
the general public. She has. 1t Is
