The death of the Dspensary bill at
the present time is the very best thing
for the supporters of that measure.
one reason for this is that the bill was
an extremely crude one, and had it
passed would have been as unsatisfac-
tory To those who supported it, as 1t
would have been to its opponents. A
sumptuary bill of this kind needs the
most careful drafting, and, once prop
erly drafted, it requires the most care
fully conducted debate, after equally
careful consideration in committee.
None of these essentials could be found
at this session.
But the paramount objection i'm con-
neCtion with the bill was that it had
formed no plank in the platform Of any
of the parties last fall. The voters Of
the Territory had had no opportunity
of passing an opinion upon it, and this
made it a dishonest bit of legislation.
1t was introduced in the caucus meet
ing of the Home Rule party early in
January, though like other Home Rule
bills of Importance it did not make it's
appearance till late in the session.
Viewed in this light no fair minded
Senator, representing an Island should
have voted for the bill. He could not
tell what the wishes of his constituents
might be- 1t is true they may be in fav-
or of prohibition even, but he cannot
tell until the question is settled at the
polls. The polls are the only places
where such a question can be settled
with any degree of certainty
Under these circumstances men like
Senators Baldwin and Carter who are
really in favor of some form of the Dis
scientiously vote against the present
act. In such circumstances they acted
like honorable men as they are, and as
true representatives of their constitu-
ents. Though favorable to the prin-
ciples of the Dispensary act, they felt
that be ought in, in the manner it had
been, it was a dishonest attempt to
force a sumptuary act upon possibly
unwilling people and they could not
be parties to such a scheme.
AS things stand now, there can be
a proper campaign for this cause, and
Senators and Representatives can be
returned to the Legislature of 1903
pledged for or against a Dispensary
act or some similar measure. The
agitation in this direction cannot be-
gin too soon, and those who believe
in this style of legislation should begin
a strong campaign of education. The
Star repeats that the defeat of the bill
at the present time is more likely to
accrue to the advantage of those who
favor such measures than it's passage
would have been.

But what has the territorial delegate

he came to capture and reduced its
voting strength. 1t was clear the
other day, how the voting strength of
the party, as party had been weak
ened when the House found itself I'M
able to pass a bill over the Governors
veto. At the outset of the session, and
before the arrival of the fusing dele
gate, such thing could not have hap
pened in the House. There was a
sure majority there which could over
ride any veto. Delegate Wilcox has
succeeded SO admirably, that i'm the
place where his party was undeniably
strong, he has lost to the party that
strength which it had, and has had the
first veto of Governor Dole supported.
In the Senate, where the party lines
are more evenly divided, he has in a
measure thrown the majority into the
hands of the true Republicans, whom
he derides and with whom his Home
Rule party decline to affiliate
The fact is that Delegate Wilcox has
made a dicker to sell his party. He
has not, however, proved himself an
astute politician for that individual
does not show his cards so openly.
When the delegate gets back he will
have nothing to deliver save an empty
name, and an account of party, who
with clear majority labored during
a whole session and produced a very
tiny mouse indeed.

THE FLOP.

Delegate Wilcox has been evidently
studying Shakespeare to some purpose
and has decided that "a rose by any
other name will smell as sweet" Hence
he has used his persuasive eloquence,
and the glitter of good things to come
and has produced the hybrid indie
pendent Home Rule Republican party.
BY the time the Delegate reaches
Washington, he will by talking of the
rest of the name, and the words Home
Rule will be completely dropped.
But will any true Republican be fool
ed by any such sudden flop? Or does
any one think that the reasons for such
a flop are not thoroughly apparent to
the leaders of the party? If the Dele
gate had been able to go back to
Washington with the statement, Il
have fused the Home Rulers and the
Republicans" he would have had some
reason to lay claim to reward. But
he has no such statement to make.
At the same time he may make it, but
he cannot be such an utter ignoramus
as not to know that information of
his proceedings will go direct to the
National Republican Committee, which
will show that he is trying to sell goods
under false pretences.
There is a true Republican party
here, and there is a renegade Republi-
can party, who, like the Trojans at
the fall of Troy, put ON Greek emblems
and thus saved themselves from de-
struction. This putting on of the
badges of the Republican party begins
to look very much as if the Home
Rule delegate had come to the conclu-
sion that the Home Rule party was
doomed to destruction, and that the
only way of escape was through a
change of uniform, though not of
heart
1t is amusing to see the change in
the delegate. Before he went to
Washington he was always preaching
the doctrine that an Independent
delegate would be best for Hawaii,
that he would not be trammelled by
party, and that Republicans and Dem
Ocrats would alike give him the help
ing hand. After he reached Washing
ton he sang the same song, and his
letters to his party, all showed the ad-
vantage of being Home Rule"
And now we have an entirely differ
ent song. The statements made six
or eight months ago are cast to the
winds. Now it must be party union,
and a delegate can do nothing in Con-
gress unless he belongs to one or other

The county bill does not look as if it
will have much chance of passing un-
less it is very much hurried up. 1t is
not through the House yet, and when
it is completed will after being en-
crossed with any proposed amend
ments incorporated, will have to go to
the Senate, where it will have to be
considered in committee and then dis
cussed, further amended, and with
these amendments will have to re-
turn to the House. And with the
county bill there is the bill for incor-
porating cities in general and the city
of Honolulu in particular. Had the
county bill been brought up as soon
as the session opened, it would have
been passed by this time. 1t only goes
to show how utterly the Home Rule
leaders or those who had these bills
in hand, failed in their duty.

There is no doubt that Senator White
is the patron saint of Lahaina. He
draws such pictures of that delectable
spot, that the wonder is he does not
draw the main population of the ISL
ands there. He always gets into the
rich poetic prose, which is far better
than mere rhymed poetry and equals
if it does not excel Shakespeares blank
verse or the rolling heXameters of
Homer The sea, the sky, the noun
tains, the view, the culture, the So
ciety, the balmy air, the softness or
velvet texture of the dust, are all de-
scribed by a master min and Wal
luku gets left as usual. Waikiki had
better look up a silver tongued orator
and put him in training if it ever
wants to get the seat of justice within
its precincts.

The veto of the characterization bill
was to be expected. With the care
taken by physicians in vaccinating
from points straight from the calf, the
objections against vaccination are re-
moved. The results obtained by vac
cination are so patent to the older
generation who remember the raVages
of smallpox in the cities Of Europe
and the East, with the countless num-
Der of peck marked people in all stages
of life, which used to be met, that they
are strong advocates of the measure.
Our people cannot surely wish to put
themselves on a plane with the natives
of India, who object to vaccination be-
cause they are afraid the children will
grow up with horns and a tail.

The small boy who, it was supposed
was blown out to sea, created a con-
siderable sensation in the city yester-
day. Officials of the Federal and Ter
ritorial Government raced round to see
what could be done, letters We're writ
ten, orders sent out, the Eleu made a
sweep of forty miles and went off in
such a hurry that she had no provi-
sions on board, and her captain, en-
gineer and crew returned half-starved.
And then after all the boy had man.
aged to get ashore by himself. He
went yesterday morning to the ice
works to get work, and was ashore all
the time the excitement was taking
place. The small boy will probably
succeed in life as a yellow journalist.
One thing, however, has been shown
and that is that both Territorial and
Federal officials are ready to step for
ward at once in the cause of humanity
and do not hesitate to do so. This is a
satisfactory feature of the case.
