Married.

Sunday June 9, 1901, as the hour
hand marked off twelve on the dial
of time Charles II. Wilde and Bessie
Myrtle Bowman, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. w. II. Bowman, plighted
those sacred VOWS that bound them
together as husband and wife, at
the home of the brides sister, Mrs.
Otto Witthauer, Elder E. e. Whita-
ker, of the Christian Church offici-
ating.
The groomi is a son of Mr.. and Mrs.
William Wilde and is connected
with the implement firm, at Ross,
and is a young man possessing
good business qualities, strong per-
sonal and moral character that
places him we'll in the esteem of
men. He was raised on his fathers
farm, in Viola township, and grew
those hardy traits that will
stand him in good stead in his fight
in the business world. Success is
already his and will be retained if
persistent industry and honesty
hold any merit in dealing with the
world.
The bride was raised in Extra and
is a graduate of it's schools in which
she has been a teacher for several
years. She began teaching in the
country schools where she met the
one who was afterwards to be her
lord and master. Having a musical
disposition she saved her money
and went through the musical de-
partment of the Indianola school,
coming out an accomplished must
clan. She has won her way by hard
industry, the genius that makes
men strong, and will made a help
meet for her chosen companion
who will be able to give aid and
comfort all through life and bring
to his home many true and stead
fast friends.
They begin life with a host of
friends wishing them success, pros
perlty and happiness which will
come only as they deport them.
selves toward neighbors and the
world. Happiness is no golden
illusion to those who truly seek it
and is found, not in selfish abando n
but in being a part of the great
universe in which we live.

THE TRAMWAY DEFEAT.

The Advertiser cOngratulateS the
Legislature on turning down the Tram
ways franchise bill. That unpopular
measure was put on the table and it is
doubtful if any self-respecting member
will move to take it off or will offer a
Substitute. The smell of the bill is very
rank and those who handled it must
carry away some of the odor. Aside
from the iniquity in it and back of it,
the measure could not become a law
without the assistance of Congress, and
so the legislators. in passing it, would
have had their labor and their smells
for their pains. Congress, in the teeth
of the inevitable Honolulu protest
would have turned the franchise down
with a slam.
The Legislature is right in thinking,
at it apparently does, that the city has
had enough of this Tramway corpora
ton and is disposed not to complicate
the efforts now being made by the Ter
ritorial Government to get rid of it. II
Honolulu is to have modern systems OF
transit, covering all the principal
streets and reaching suburban points
of vantage, it will get it the sooner by
Kidding itself of the offensive Tran
system which the foreign owners have

DISPENSARY QUERIES.

What is best from the point of view
of peace and order-a few high priced
centralized saloons under the eye of the
police or family supply of cheap
liquor In every shack in the suburbs
which the police cannot watch?
If it is morally wrong for the Gov
eminent to license saloons and get a
small revenue from them is it morally
right to set up a Dispensary for the
sake of large revenue?
Does the cheapening of the price of
liquor and the Improvement of It's
quality tend toward a more moderate
use of alcoholic stimulants and increase
the chances of getting drunkards or oc-
casional consumers of liquor to alb
stain?
Is treating" in saloons at fifty cents
Tor two small drinks likely to cause as
much drunkenness as treating in pri-
Vate houses or on back streets from a
quart bottle costing the same amount .
WIN treating decline in proportion as
the opportunity to treat" at small cost
and in greater volume is increased?
The Advertiser does not ask these
questions to indicate that 1t opposes the
Dlspensary bill. 1t is ready to support
that measure if 1t can be convinced thar
by doing so 1T would contribute to the
moral well-being of the community.
