SEGREGATION OF LEPERs.

Mr.. H. E. Cooper, President Of
the Board OF Health, is quoted in
the official organ as saying that be
will allow in the future more lati-
tude in issuing permits to people de-
string to visit relations and friends
at the Leper Settlement. 1t is also
claimed that he struck out names
of persons applying for permission
to visit the Settlement because their
only object was that Of curiosity.
After reading the names OF those
who were permitted to travel with
Mr.. Cooper we fail to see how often
he used his "blue" pencil. AS far as
visits to the Settlement by friends
OF the lepers are concerned we can
only say that we shall either have
segregation pure and simple or none
at all Under the Kalakaua regime
Minister Gibson was abused with
great veheme nee by the men now
belonging to the Dole Government,
because he occasionally obeyed a
wish of the aliis and issued a permit
to some Hawaiian man and woman
to visit the Settlement. The doc
tors serving Mr.. Dole's Government
have decided that there is no dan
ger at all in allowing occasional
visits of well people to the Settle
ment. We don't believe in segrega-
tion because we fail to see that the
method has benefited the country,
and we ask some of the advocates of
segregation to tell us how many
"kokuas," nurses, doctors and other
helpers at the Settlement have ever
contracted the disease. With our
supposed model system Of segrega-
tion leprosy has not decreased in
Hawaii. With the non-segregating
policy of Norway and other afflicted
countries the dread disease is on the
decrease. The laws here as we'll as
public opinion uphold the segrega-
tion OF lepers, and we have nothing
to say against it. But il it is to exist
let the law be strictly upheld and
don't allow Mr.. Cooper or his doc
tors to make farce OF the law.

CONSEQUENCES.


The Am-uean press complains
that the dispatches from the Phil
ippines are even falser than were
the Spanish kilograms during the
war in Cuba.
The most rigorous censorship is
exercised over all the dispatches.
Even letters are inspected. Severe
structures have been made by Am
erican soldiers who have prayed their
relatives to guard the secret Of their
complaints, alas too we'll founded,
but the divulgence Of which might
make trouble between them and
their chiefs. These sufferings and
Representations are among the
sorrowful consequences of war
One feels ashamed of ihese acts,
but one feels how Indispensable it is
to disguise them, for If they appear
ed in their sanguinary reality, by
the light of burning cities, from
amidst panic-stricken flying crowds,
they would create horror. One
knows that il American mothers
could see their sons quivering with
the fever, sweating in their agony in
crowded hospitals, or wounded,
lying stretched out half-dead on the
roads soddened with rain or roasted
by the sun, cry would be raised
strong enough even to reach the
White House.
Formerly we all envied the happi-
ness OF the United States. The
necessities and the preparations for
war never burdened its budgets.
She could consecrate all her re-
sources to the organization OF pro-
ductive labor, and while ancient Eu-
rope weakened her strongest forces
by armaments, young American in
dustry asserted position which
seemed to defy all competition.
What effects are produced by the
pursuit of glory? Blood never made
q bonny dew 1t is not by military
enterprises, however successful they
may be, that the happiness of dem
ocracies is assured.
The power OF the United States is
founded on Labor and on Right and
not on violence. They are bases
which defy time itself. The vio-
lent spirit of conquest can add moth
ing to them for there is nothing 30
unstable as foundation on violence.
What remains OF the conquests OF
Cesar or Of Alexanderi Scarcely

Athens and OF Rome have passed

ences, laws and all the institutions

lam Jennings Bryan spent yesterday in
Birmingham and was given an en-
thusiastic reception by all of the citi-
zens. Not only the citizens of Birming-
ham alone, but many from neishboring
cities and towns came to hear the great
leader talk on the current issues of the
day. What the Lords Supper is to the
Christian. so a jefferson banquet is to
the Democrat. Just as a good Christian
would revolt at having the sacrament
administered by an infiGel. so a good
Democrat objects 70 have a Jefferson
banquet presided over by Perry Bel
mont" was the epigrammatical manner
in which Bryan referred to the much
talked of New York banquet which
Belmont and his followers are to give in
New York next month.
In the morning Bryan was taken on
special train all over the Birmingham
district, and he enjoyed greatly being
shown its wonderful Industrial develop
ment. a public reception was given him
in the afternoon in the Morris hotel.
At night at the Auditorium he ad-
dressed an audience OF over 1000 peo-
pie. He spoke for exactly three hours
and was given marked attention.

Jackson, Miss, March "a. - Three
negroes were taken from an officer Of

them. All that is further known is that
the negroes fell into the hands of the

of a disturbance al the Midnight planta-

longing to one of the white men was
wounded, but the men were not
