briga? Not in the court OF Judge Will
COX. Once this persistent offender was
let of on a technicality; at other
times, including the last one, he was
given the lightest possible sentence,
not including Imprisonment, and sent
back without the lesson which might
have forced him and others to obey the
law. In other words, Nobriga, after
his comforting experiences in court,
finds himself encouraged to do his
worst, and the officers Of the Board OF
Health find themselves discouraged in
their efforts to bring the man to tus-
tice.
Perhaps Judge Wilcox feels that No
briga's loss of trade through his ar
rests and exposures Is. of itself, suffi-
cient punishment. If so. the opinion
does more credit to the heart than to
the head Of this judicial functionary.
The object of the pure food law IS not
only to punish, and adequately punish,
the convicted misdemeanant, but to
warn other dealers who may be tempt
ed to adulterate their wares that the
law cannot be trified with. No rascal
of this kind, not even Nobriga, is
afraid OF the law now. 1t has been
interpreted quite In the way he would
have 1t. The time has long since come
for sterner judgments, and the public,
hopeful Of a protective judiciary, will
watch the future attitude OF Judge Will
cox toward pure food cases with a Gu
rious and importunate interest.

TUE CASE OF NoBRIGA.

Sylvanio Nobriga is a dairyman of
the Nuuanu valley who sells adulter-
ated or diluted milk. His name is a
familiar one on the docket Of the Po-
lice Court. ii having appeared there
three or four times. 1t figured in one
appeal to the Circuit Court from a mi
nor fne-in an appeal which was de-
MED and supplemented, if we remem-
Der Alright. with the scathing arraign-
rnent OF the bench. Notwithstanding
Nobrigas arrests, however, one of
which occurred few days ago, he has
never received the lesson which the
character of his offences deserves.
1t seems very little thing from one
point of view-which we hope Is not
Judge Wilcox's-that a dealer should
dilute or otherwise impair the quality
az the milk he sells to consumers, but
Il may mean the difference between
fifo and death to an invalid or a little
child. Milk Is often the principal food
of the ailing and always OF the infant.
Upon It's purity the health of the one
and the existence OF the other meas
rably depends. II the milk Is diluted
with water II fails to give the expected
nourishment and the patient or the
eaild declines. II mixed with the
drugs which adulterators commonly
use, 1t causes sickness on its own ac-
count. Murders that the penal dock
cts never recorded-and countless
murders. too-might be traced, II the
trails of evidence were surely followed
to the greed OF dishonest dairymen. Of
whom sylvanio Nobriga Is a type.
The Legislature OF 1898, recognizing
and desiring to remedy the evil, passed
pure food law (Act 34) which i'm
posed upon the Police Court the duty
in the case of convicted offenders, o.
levying a fine or not more than ont
hundred or less than twenty-five dol
lars or committing the offender to {

say. the law, as 1t stands. empower,
the Police Judge to fine a rascal Xix
SylvanIo Nobriga, dairyman of tn
Nuuanu valley, 800 and to put him OF
the reef for one hundred days. Con
sidering the nature OF the offence, tn
extreme penalty is not too severe.

Celery as a Vehicle OF Injection.
The possible danger from fertilizers,
and especially from the use of sewage,
has recently been brought to public no.
Cice, The use of animal fertilizers has
been suspected of doing harm to those
who have eaten Of the veget tables grown
under their stimulus, and of being the
possible cause of disease in some OBJ
scure cases. Says The Journal of the
American Medical Association on this
subject: "A rather striking object-les-
son is reported from one of the East
ern States where an epidemic OF fever
occurred in one of the State institu-
lions. 1t was found that the disease
could apparently be traced to the use
OF celery grown on some sewage-fer-
tilted grounds. the practice of bank
ing up the stalks making these plants
specially adapted to receiving and hold
ing the germs. AS soon as the use of
the plant was stopped, the epidemic
diminished, and finally ceased alto
gether. These facts indicate the need
o. caution in using this popular vege-
table, which, with its corrugated stems,
etiOlated by banking up with earth
often saturated with fertilizers Of one
kind or another, and generally eaten
raw. might very possibly carry the
germs of disease. The danger is not
great or we would hear more of it. but
that it may exist occasionally the above
case seems to prove"

that a much larger percentage OF the
Cubans will be excluded from voting
on the ground OF illiteracy than does
General Wood, for the former says:
While the pei centage of illiteracy can
be determined only after the data of
the recent census become available. 1t
is currently est mated at from seventy
five to eighty per cent. This is by no
means incredible, as Spain, with a pop
ulation or eighteen million. contains
six million people who can neither read
nor write. The Spaniards never en-
couraged popular education in Cuba,
giving il merely nominal RECOGNITION.
In my judgment II would be a bitter
travesty of independence and a pro-
found wrong to Cuba were its destinies
to be intrusted to it's least-informed
and, from the immediate view of in
telligent citizenship. the hopeless class
of it's population"
General Ludlow holds that the only
exception to this rule should be those
who fought in the war against Spain.
and those who have at least five hun
dred dollars in money or property
He has a strong hope, however, in the
future of the Cuban people, for he SAYS:
The people of Cuba will rapidly ac-
quire the art of self-government. They
are o. an unusual measure of intel
ligence, and will be able to manage
their own affairs as independently of
exterior control or guidance as are the
States of the Union"
III 1t is true that the percentage of
illiteracy in Cuba is as high as seventy
five per cent, General Woods estimate
of a total voting strength would be re-
duced to less than hundred thousand.
II is on some such lines as these, how
ever, that the first general election I'M
der American control will take place
in Cuba. AS the result of this election
there will spring into form the first
manifestation of Cuban home-rule I'M
der the new dispensation. There may
be disturbances at the polls on the
first election day. These will be but
surface ebullitions, however; for while
heCubans are excitable and combative.
they are in earnest in their attempt
at self-government. The Americans
are now doing more for them than the
greatest armed force could accomplish
