4 POLITICAL MoUNrEBAnk.
csustie Criticism Of Temperance Lee-
turer c. J. Hall.

EDITOR OF TRIBUNE: | notice in
Wednesdays issue OF the Daily
Democrat of this city reply to
your editorial on temperance in the
TRIBUNE OF the same day by C. ].
Hall, temperance lecturer, and |
also notice that Mr.. Hall does not
deny the authenticity Of your fig
Sures nor refute a singleSstatement
tmade in your editorial.
He says: cit is true that repnb-
lican papers have again and again
repeated the statement that the
liquor trade has not increased in
Manila, but unfortunately for these
writers, facts are against them.
The official tabulated statement OF
the Bureau of Statistics, Treasury
department at Washington, show
that the exports OF malt and spirit
Gus liquors from the United States
to the Philippines are as follows:
1897, s6o3; IS9S,s337; 1899, sI43,-
1877; 1900. sI92,o53 in seven
months"
These figures do not prove
Mr.. Halls statement, viz: that
''the liquor trade has increased
in Manila" To do this he has
yet to show that Manila could not
get liquor from any other country
but the United States, and this he
has not done. All his figures
prove is that Manila bought more
liquor from the United States in
1900 than in 1897, and not that
there has been a steady increase in
the sales of liquors from 1897 to
1900 in the Philippines.
In 1897 the Philippines were
under Spanish rule and they bough,
almost nothing of the United States,
they bought nearly everything OF
Spain, the country that ruled them.
II Mr.. Hall assumes, as he ap-
pears to do by his figures, that the
people of Manila got all their liquor
from the United States, or that
they could not or did not get any
from any other country during these
years, then he must be very SUI
perhcial man for temperance lee
turer. From the figures he fur
nishes he evidently wants the
reader to draw that inference.
Mr.. Hall claims to get his fig
ures from the Bureau OF Statistics
of the Treasury Department at
Washington. If he had read = lit
tie farther on and had examined
the Treasury Statistics a little
closer, he would have found some
thing much to his intellectual edi-
fcation.
An Official statement prepared
By the Treasury Department show
that the value Of liquors of an
kinds exported from the United

the fniiiPpine ISLANDS IN 1899 was
81, 46s, SI7, against s2,S54,439 ex-
ported from Spain to the same is
lands in 1899 and sI,76o,7I7 in
1896. These figures OF course do
not touch the question under dis
cussion, but they show conclusive
ly that the United States did not
export as much liquor to these is
lands in 1899, when. she had pos
session OF them, as did Spain in
1890 and 1896 when she had pos
session OF them.
The only figures that touch
the point at issue are those found
in the official statement OF Lieu
tenant Bishop, who has charge OF
the Department of Licenses in
Manila, who is on the ground and
in position to know. This report
dated March 18th, 1900, shows
that the number OF places in Ma
Mia in which wines and liquors
were sold, previous to the occups-
tion by the American troops was
not less than 5000, while on
March 9th, 1900, the number was
1873 saloons and org wine shops.
These both are not saloons, as we
use the term, for Lieutenant Bish
op says none OF these places are
conducted as wine shops alone,
but are invariably associated with
the sale OF food, while the stock
of liquors is always very small,
amounting in most cases to less
than $40. Even if we call the lat
ter saloons it shows a great falling
off. viz, from 5000 before the oc-
cupation TO 77r now.
If Mr.. Hall will not accept Lieu
tenant Bishops figures as conclu
sive on this subject, then it shows
how little admiration he has for
truth and veracity.
! heard this Mr.. Hall lee
ture at the opera house Sunday
night and he arraigned the tenn
perance people of La Junta be-
cause last spring they voted for
the Citizens ticket which he was
pleased to call the "Whiskey
Ticket"
This criticism might be consid-
cred huge Joke, first because
there was but one ticket in the
field and temperance people had
to vote for that ticket or
stay at home, and second be-
cause the three candidates on the
Citizens ticket were strong TEN
perance men. The main fault
found with Mr.. Halls lecture Sun
day night was, that while he Sc
verely arraigned President Mckin-
ley and the republican party, he
did not have one word OF criticism
or censure for the democratic party,
or its record on the liquor ques
ton. II he had criticized both par
ties with equal impartialty no one
would have had any fault to find.
If Mr.. Hall had told his audience
that with all the faults of the re-
publican party on this subject of
temperance, the democratic party
was ten times worse, he would
have told the simple truth. But
this he did not do, and the only
conclusion that any unbiased hearer
could draw from his remarks was
that he had great fault to find with
the republican party on this ques-
ton, but none whatever with the
democratic party on the same sub
ject.
Mr.. Hall must certainly know
that every prohibition state in the
union has been made so by the re-
publican party, and every advance
in legislation on the liquor question
has been made by the republican
party.

WHERE is c. N.
RAGSDALE OF HILO?
Son of the American Consul
to Tien-Tsin is Sought
After.

The police would like to know the
exact whereabouts of c. n. Ragsdale
formerly of HiIo. RagsdaIe is generally
supposed to have quietly left for
the Coast several weeks since in com
pany Of r. G. Abercrombie. Both are
said to have gone on a sailing vessel
from Honolulu and have not been heard
of since.
The Hilo Mercantile Company has
brought suit against Ragsdale to recov-
er on two promissory notes amounting
with interest to $409. "a. In July, D. Ly-
curgus. the Hio caterer, brought an
action against Abercrombie, alleging
gross cheat on the part of the Hilo cof-
fee planter. When the papers reached
Honolulu the young man had fled tC
other parts and left his creditor in the
lurch.
The Hilo Mercantile Company In its
complaint to the Fourth District Court
alleges that on December Is, 1899, Rags
dale executed to the company "A prom
