Itobbing.


Afew nights ago a young man arrived In
Boston a stranger. A tweive-hundred-dol-
lar situation awaited him. He sought Iodp-
ings In a hotel, and after three days Of un-
consciousness came to himself minus fifty
dollars and his gold watch.
Only a few years ago a veteran Of the late
war came to Boston from Togus. Me-. to
get his pension, which was awaiting him at
the pension office. A little more than M
teen hundred dollars were paid him, aud he
passed out into the street a happy man.
Going into a clothing store he purchased a
new suit OF clothes and then started out In
search Of his wife and child, who were liy-
ing at the South End.
He thought he must have Just one drink.
and stepping into q saloon In q certain
street he was detained until inside OF one
week from the day he entered that saloon
be was kicked into the street, money all
gone, with a linen duster for q coat, an old
pair Of pants, and shoes out at the toes, as
his wardrobe.
Now these are true instances, and 1t is the
work of the saloon, licensed or unlicensed.
It not only robs a man of his money and
clothes, but 1t robs him OF his brains.
Those same saloons In Boston are still
dealing out this deadly stun.
Would the citizens of this commonwealth
allow any other branch of business to thus
rob its inhabitants2
No, mol Athousand times no! Then why
allow this business to carry on its work by
granting q license and thus becoming a
party to drunkenness and robbery?--TeE-
perance Cause.

KNOCKING out the Props.

One after another have the props that
supported the alcoholic treatment OF dis
ease been knocked out or shown to be
utterly untenabie. 1t waslong strenuously
maintained that 1t gaye strength and was
an aid to digestion; but the fact has been
abundantly established that few so-called
remedies so effectualfy sap vitality and
strength and impair the digestive powers
as the alcoholics. 1t was then confidently
asserted that it was to some extent con-
sumed In the system and SO contributed
to animal heat; but 1t has been abundantly
shown that much Of 1t passes out of the
system as 1t enters 1t, simply as alcohol,
and it has never been shown that any part
Of it undergoes combustion or contributes
to animal heat, and the universal testimony
OF polar navigators is that those resist cold
hest who make NO use OF spirits.

Mrs. Mary H. Hunt says: "The vital step
is to educate the public opinion as to the
evil character and effects OF alcohol, anu
the education must be as universal as the
people,, and must be impaired before tho
appetite Is formed. We have a great deal
Of anti-saIoon sentiment, but it is anti-alco-
hol sentiment that Is wanted. Temperance
orators nave denounced the saloon till no
one wants 1t next door, but very little has
been said against alcohol. Scientific tenn
perance instruction in our public schools,
Il faithfully Impaired, Is creating this anti
alcohol sentiment"

the following deductions regarding the

methods Of work, that slight indulgence
In alcoholic drinks dispeIled instantly his

writer, as an experiment during the strain
Of his 'Staatsexamen' that he suddenly
stopped his wine and beer and was sur.
prised to find how much better he could
work. An eminent professor in Leipslc
once said that the German students woul
do twice the amount Of work (k9nnten

found that moderate n-on-intoxicant deses

The Total Abstainer.

Bishop Spalding of Peoria, ILL.,, says:
Intoxicating drinks are not necessary to
health, since women and children, to speak
in a large sense, do not use them, and their
health Is quite as good as that Of men who
drink. They are not necessary, and often
they are harmful, bringing ruin upon
countless individuals, despair to the hearts
Of innumerable wives and mothers, chang
lug homes which were created by love into
lens OF misery and hate, filling asylums
with orphansto whom the deaths of fathers
and mothers came as q blessing, turning
loose the spirit of lust and murder, OBJ
seuring the brightest minds aud whitening
the most generous hearts. Nor will any
good or wise man say that all this concerns
others, not himself.
"What / am l owe to O thousand inlu-
ences not my own, and / am the shallowest
ofmen II 1 imagine that 1t Is possible for
me to take care OF myself without caring
for others. What injuries the neighbor-
hood, the city in which / live, Injuries me,
and when my faith or my country suffer
wrong I also am wronged; and a man be-
comes a total abstainer not necessarily be-
cause he loves his fellow man, HIS religion,
his country; because he pities women who
ire the wives OF brutal husbands and the
mothers OF helpless children OF drunken
iathers."

Chose Scotch Titles,

It is rather remarkable that Her
Majesty Queen Victoria chose Scottish
titles for two of her three younger
sons, the Dukes of Edinburgh and
q half Scottish title for her remaining
younger son, the Duke Of Connaught
and Strathearn. She gave an English
title to none of her sons except, of
course, the Prince of Wales.

PRESIDENT MACKINLEY

Extras of the San Francisco
afternoon papers of the 4th inst.
contain reports of President Nc
Kinley's Inauguration. His in
augural address quite agrees with
the forecast elsewhere given from
the morning papers. There is no
reference to Hawaii, nor is there
reason why such should be ex-
pected. The address is not
to Congress outlining work be-
fore it, but to the American
people defining the broad general
principles of the new administra-
ton. President Mckinley an
nounced that he would, rs a mat
ter of duty, convene Congress in
special session on the the 18th of
March to consider revenue neces-
sites. In laying down policy OF
peace, the President says: 1--WE
want no wars of conquest; we
must avoid the temptation of terri.
torial aggression" Altogether
the address is the modest, plain
spoken expression of man of the
people to the people, with quite
pious strain of consciousness of
an individual responsibility as
great AS can be borne by any pair
of shoulders.

Every now and again the Hilo
Tribune explodes in wrath over
the appointment of officials in that
town by the Government instead of
being elected by the people of Hi.
10. Officials cannot be elected
there, however, without change
of system. Residents might if
they could agree nominate them,
and then no doubt the Govern
ment would favorably consider the
nominations. AS Hilo cannot
agree on any question of persons,
owing to its different factions,
election machinery would be nee.
essary. This would be absurd in
affairs of general government and
cannot be thought of. If Hilo
wants to rule itself and
pay for the ruling, in matters of
police, education, sanitation, etc,
let it have a charter of incorpor-
alton drawn up and submitted,
first, to vote of the people with
in the proposed municipal juris.
diction and, secondly, to the Lee

was better to be governed from
Honolulu little while longer.
