Who Constitutes a
Guest at a Hotel?
Judge Wilcox Will Decide Question
of Sunday Liquor Selling
at Waikiki.

A test case is to be made of the prac-
tice of selling liquor at the WAIKIKI
Inn on Sundays to those who register
there and are served with liquor as
guests. The place was spotted last
Sunday and as result subpoenas have
oeen served on most of the people who
visited the resort and took wee
drop to Stake their thirst.
The beach is a popular place for
recreation on Sundays, and many who
toll in town all day during the week are
in the habit of going to Waikiki in
search OF pleasure on Sundays. The
scenery is inviting to the repose so
conducive to comfort in this climate.
and the water, of which there is an
abundance, is good to look upon and
better to swim in An afternoon spent
at the beach would no doubt be pleas
ure were there no refreshments for the
inner man. The refreshment is there.
however, and because some Of the doc
tors and lawyers and business men of
the town -craved a crumb and slipped a
sup they have been commanded to
tell Judge Wilcox all about it in the
police court this morning.
The manager of the Waikiki Inn was
arrested last evening and charged with
selling liquor on Sunday to others than
guests Of the inn. All of the people SO
served had registered, and it remains
TO be seen whether person who places
his name on the register of hotel is q
guest Of the house or not.

In reference to story in the Star

in the case of man arrested on Mon
day evening for being drunk, one of
the friends of the man locked up said
last night:
THE story that tail was not refused
Is not true. / and the others with me
offered bail and asked what it was. We
got no satisfaction except that we were
told 10 see the sheriff. The clerk or
dered the prisoner searched and put
below. We did not say anything to
him about releasing the man without
bail We did not say anything about
not putting his name on the register.
We wanted to bail him out and were
refused the privile00 point blank"
It is said that the man arrested on
Monday night refused to leave the sta
ton when the sheriff came there. This
10 true, but he did not refuse to leave
when his friends first came there with
him whom he was brought in. After he
had been locked up for several hours
the sherif was found and came to the
station. Consent was given to the
mans release on bail and he was
brought up from the cells, but when
he got In the. Office he refused 70 be
bailed out and said bad words, so he
was locked up again.

The Saloon Question.

THE Mexico Ledger contained an
article few days ago from the pen
of Dr.. II. X. IIinde of this city
which the MESSAGE makes haste to
most heartily endorse. II is con
corning the saloon; or murder
mills, as DR.. lIindc calls those
places. DR.. Hindc is one of our
most widely informed and upright
citizens and his word has standing
in the church and wherever he may
speak. What he says concerning
this question is endorsed 10y hun
dreds of our citizens as II picture
not Il whit oyerdrawn, us only the
truth and nothing else but the
truth. Here are his words;
Those of us who have never seen
much of the inside workings of the
mHdcr mills of our country have
had the opportunity at the Court
House in the Spencer murder trial.
The picture Of this one day in the
Nandalia saloon ought to he Sulli-
cient to awaken in the minds of all
well thinking people II proper APP
probation of the terrible consc-
quenceS of these dens of iniQuity
we are fostering in our midst.
Just think of the manner in
which this Christmas day, the AN
niversary Of the day of our Lord,
was celebrated by these people in
our neighboring town of Nandalia.
And it was but a counterpart of
the manner i'll which the day was
celebrated in our own city of Mex
leo, minus the incident of the muir
der, which was liable to have Oc-
CURED i'll any one of our saloons.
AS we sit and listen to the test-
mOny of these saloon men. and
these boys and young men of Van
dalla who We're in that murder mill
on that fatal day; as We look upon
the face of this young man, the son
of a faithful Methodist preacher
now in heaven; as we gaze upon
the features of his old mother, now
eighty years of age, and his broken
hearted sister and brothers; as we
see by their side the widow and
little children of the murdered
man, doomed to II life of sadness
and grief-the question forces it,
self upon us: What is the real
cause of all this suffering; who is
the real culprit? Would there
have been any of these terrible
grlefs had not the saloon been in
Nandalia! The Nandalia people
are not sinners above all other
towns, but who in Nandalia is re-
sponSible for that saloon in which
were gathered on that fatal Christ
mas day, so many of their young
men, and III which this terrible
tragedy was enacted.

they are not abandoned on account of

favorable auspices than are farms in

of nearness to market, educational in
