not stand It. 1t has stood about as
much as it can.
When fighting the plague elsewhere
commerce is not interfered with. The
plague is in Sydney, but the commerce
of Sydney goes on as usual. The
plague has been in Bombay, but It
never stopped the commerce nor the
traffic on the railways. The passen-
gers were examined, and should one be
found to be suffering from plague that
carriage, with all occupants was quar-
antined at the next siding, but the rest
of the train went on. In Japan the
railways did not stop, but they were
watched.
Here we have made a fight on heroic
lines, but the time for heroic measures
is past, and a less drastic treatment
should be inaugurated

QUARANTINE.

The merchants and traders of Homo
lulu have stood by the Board of Health
nobly during the crisis, and it now
would seem to be the duty of the Board
of Health to stand by the merchants.
AS the latter put it, not only are they
suffering by enormous business losses
and the deterioration of much of their
goods, but their clients on the other
Islands are suffering from not receiv-
ing goods which are absolutely neces-
sary.
1t does seem very hard that Ameri-
can and European goods should have
an embargo put upon them. They
come from clean shipping places where
is not chance of any plague germs
getting into them. The merchants ar
que justly that there is only an occa-
stoned case of plague, that it is no
longer epidemic, and it might be added
that Hongkong under similar circum-
stances would not dream of being con-
sidered an infected port.
Another point which the merchants
make is that the President of the Board
OF Health has stated that though the
plague is practically stamped out spo-
radio cases may crop up for year or
more. Does the Board contemplate
keeping up the embargo for that length
of time? The community simply could

IN HARD LUCK.

The question of what can be done for
the steerage passengers who are locked
up in Honolulu against their will is be-
coming more serious from day to day.
The Star has brought the matter for
ward on several occasions recently, and
it is time that the authorities faced
the problem and found some solution.
These men are not loafers; they are
willing and anxious to work, but there
is no work for them. All that they ask
for is the means to get away. Most of
them have the means of paying the $25
fare, but if their detention continues
much longer this money will be absorb
ed by living expenses and they will be
utterly destitute.
Investigation shows that there are
more than one hundred men in this pos
ition. There is a talk among them of
holding a public meeting tomorrow,
and drawing up a series of resolutions
setting forth their position. They do
not ask for any charity or anything
of that sort. They are perfectly willing
and ready to work. Many of them are
skillful at their particular trades, put
there is no opening for them here
There is no doubt that their case is
hard, and that something should be
done to alleviate the situation.
It may be asked how these men came
here? Most of them came down to the
Islands to look around for work and
We're caught in Honolulu by the quar-
antine. Some would have gone to the
other Islands; others, again, after they
found that there were no prospects,
would have returned to the Mainland.
There is no Sinking the problem; it is
a very serious one. The probability
is that the rules in San Francisco are
what stand in the way But some
means should be found whereby these
men could be prevented from becoming
paupers.

POsTOFFICE LOAFERS.

The police sometime ago made raid
or so on the loafers who congregate
about the postoffice. 1t is regular
rendezvous for number of people,
very many of whom are Portuguese,
with fair sprinkling of other nation
alities, and who sit around looking for
work which they hope nobody will be
so unfeeling as to offer.
These men sit on the balustrade and
on the step to the boxes, lean against
the pillars, and are a general nuisance
to those who have business. 1t is some
times hard work to get at ones box,
for they consider they have a right to
their seats on the STEP and the owner
of the box may have to wait several
minutes while a heated discussion as
to the proper amount of garlic in soup,
or the best way to roll cigarettes, or the
iniquity of wives who will not give all
their wages they earn by washing to
their lords and masters, is brought to
an end.
And this is by no means the only
nuisance. Most of the gentry are con-
tinually smoking cigarettes, or pipes,
and this involves a great deal of ex
pectoration. The pavement is the nat
ural place to spit on, and the result is
an elegant arabesquing of the veranda
with patterns of reeking nicotine, the
germs of tuberculosis and other pleas
ing things.
1t is quite a bold woman who will
face the veranda of the postoffice and
get her own letters. She has to jostle
her way along the loafers, pick her way
carefully among the arabesques and
disease germs, portions of which she
must carry away on her boots, lift her
skirts with one hand lest they be con-
! taminated by the filth, and unlock her
box with the other as soon as the
Argument above alluded to has come to
a conclusion.
OF course the officer who is detailed
for the duty should be a man of judg
ment. There are many people who
have business around the postoff1ce,
and who may have to remain a few
minutes on the steps or in the vicinity.
]
who has business from the ordinary
loafer, and it is the loafer who should
be got rid of.
/ There is another thing which The Star
has often called attention to, and that
is the necessity of having some recepta-
Gle for papers, torn and otherwise.
People often open letters on the steps
| and throw down the envelopes. Ad-
vertisements come which they do not
wish to carry home; samples of various
kinds. If there was a receptacle of
some kind and notices put up politely
asking people to put all useless and
torn papers into it, people will soon get
into the habit. In sevral cities of the
Mainland this has been tried and has
/ had marked success.
| We ought to take pride in our streets
and public buildings, and besides ask
| ing that the police do their duty, we
ought to be willing to do our share to-
wards keeping the streets and precincts
of our public buildings clean.

RATS AGAIN.

1t does not seem necessary to dwell
standing menace when there is bubonic
plague about. The Star has cited cases
innumerable showing that rats are a
fruitful source of infection. Another
case appears in the last files from the
Coast, where rats in Melbourne have
been found to be infected with plague.
The Board of Health, the other day,
seemed on the point of starting cam
paign in this direction, but it has APP
parently been dropped again. There
seems to be difficulty in carrying on
a warfare against the rodents, and
various people have various theories of
how to deal with them, but the fact
remains that the rat question has been
effeCtually solved in several places, and
there is no valid reason why it should
not be solved here.
Certainly it can be no harder to meet
the rat question here than it is at Sin
gapore or Colombo. The former place
has large Chinese population, and ev-
cry one knows that a Chinese pOpula'
ton lives in confined quarters where
rats, unless they are systematically eX-
terminated, abound. Colombo has g
large Cingalese population also living
in crowded quarters, but success has
crowned the efforts of the local gov
eminent to exterminate the rodents. i
is an old saying that where there's E
will there's a way. We have got tC
have a thorough rat campaign.

THE CHILDREN,

An adult may be at once thin and
healthy, but baby, or young child,
Should be plump, and well covered
with fat. Yet how many gaunt, ema-
ciated, thin blooded babies and child
rem we see, chiefly because the nutri-
tive machinery Of their bodies is in
some way out of order Or they may
be scrofulous or the victims of some
subtle wasting disease. Nauseous and
bad tasting medicine is Objectionable
to adults and horror to children. No
doubt its frequent lack of good effect
Is, at least partly due to the disgust it
excites in them-the shock to the
system. This is true of cod liver oil
in the form of the ordinary old fash
Toned mixtures so often forced upon
them. The old terror Of this valuable,
yet offensive drug vanishes with the
transformation it has undergone in

A trip from Marietta to Watertown
shows evidences of prosperity on every
hand. Along the beautiful ridge road,
and down the pleasant, shady dells are
well-kept farms, with fine orchards Of
apples and peaches, and well stocked
thrifty corn are numerous, and the
pastures are void OBJ briers or obnoxious
weeds One interesting feature is the
large number of comparatively new
houses, all of modern architecture. and
the barns and other buildings are also
in most excellent condition. The farm
ers are happy and contented and are
meeting with success in good measure

urday evening, was delightful. After
bountiful supper, served by the Bur
chett hotel, our party left Watertown
at 5:15, and arrived home at eight
o'clock. A refreshing rain had fallen,
and the air was pure and sweet. The
full, perfect moon, cast her effulgent
rays over the beautiful landscape.
making a picture that would have
thrilled the artists brain with delight.
AS we neared Marietta, the view up
the beautiful Muskingum, and the
myriad OF dazzling lights of the busy
city filled us with an inspiration,
emphasizing the fact that Nature has
beauties beyond the power of brush OF
pen, and that man is powerful in
strument under the direction of the
Deity.
