stand up and show a solid and fearless
front. What have you to fear from the
crimps? What have you to fear from
Turk and Lewis and their gang White
YOU are sober men?
..Aht that is where you fall; that is
where you permit yourselves to be
shanghaied and ruthlessly dumped into

crimps burn your throat. For if you

merciless mercenary hands Of Turk

1T is terrible to conceive of such a
thing in this enlightened age as the
handling of men like cattle. the making
of them drunk and putting them aboard
ship against their will. But it is done
here in Honolulu and with the help of
God it shall be stopped. These men
must be held up to scorn; the sailors
have friends here; they have their
champions and their interests will b.,
we'll looked after.
1t will not be for long that Lewis and
Turk will eat the bread bought with
blood money. 1t is strange that they
have not choked on it before this"
McComb then spoke earnestly con-
corning the power of salvation and said
that Turk and Lewis could even be
saved provided they would forsake
, their sins.

CONCERT AT WAIALUA.
Sixty Dollars Raised For the Renefi!
Of the Kekipi Church.

a concert given at Waialua on Sat-
urdav evening for the benefit of the
Kekipi church to be erected there, was
successful one, financially and music
ally, $50 being realized from the sale of
tickets. The program was an excellent
one in which Honolulu talent partici-
pated in the musical numbers which
were heartily applauded. Col. Curtis
Iaukea and his daughter rendered valu-
able assistance to the committee in
charge of the entertainment. The
church to be established in Waialua is
a branch of that started by the Rev.
Kekipi of this city. They believe in
faith and cure and that every thing one
does is inspired by God. The program
was as follows:

Fort Street Spring.

Fort street pedestrians have wonder
ed at supply of water oozing UP be-
tween the rails of the Tramways Com
pany opposite Ehlers store. For two
or three days spring of water has
dubbed at that point and as a result
the street between the Boston building
and King street has become a quag-
mire nuisance. Evidently a main has
bursted and is in need of immediate re-
pair.

had formerly retreated. and marched
forth with boldness that promised to

convention, and members We'd with each
other In an ambitious scramble TO see who
could get there "fust." But Just at this
juncture somebody let of cannon Are.

1t was represented that the corporations

constitutional convention when every man

The Austin Statesman. referring to the
stumbling block imposed by our consttu-

pertinently points out the fact that the
tax commission, which was composed OF
four OF Texas ablest men, has found It
standing like wall In the way of much
legislation which would be OF incalculable
benefit to the people OF this state"
Tho whole truth is that the straight
forward way TO oyerreach tho disadvan

in a constitutional convention to which
the sovereign people shall send their
truest, ablest and best representatives..
and not through amendments. the legiti-
mate purposes of which can be accom-

several members OF the law making body.
