WHY NOT EXPERIMENT WITH
LEPRoSY9


An evening paper in discussing the
action OF the Board OF Health in re-
fusing DR.. George J, Augur permission
TO experiment with q remedy which
he believes win at least retard the
growth OF the disease OF leprosy, takes
the ground that segregation is the best
method OF dealing with the disease yet
discovered. The Republican fully
agrees with its contemporary that
segregation should be as complete as
possible, and Il was to this end that
The Republican in 1890 took up the
fight against the promiscuous visiting
at the leper settlement which prevail

the Board Of Health in July Of that
year.

had no idea Of asking the Board to
permit him any privilege which would
be contrary to law. He was aware Of
what the Law is and took it for grant
ed that the members OF the Board OF
Health we're also familiar with the
law and would give him credit for
knowing what its provisions are. The
letter OF DR.. Aagar. sent TO DR.. Slog-
gett, President OF the Board. yester-
day morning. and which is printed in
another column fully explains this
What Or. Augur desired was to treat
some cases in the early stages OF the
disease at the detention camp at Ka-
lIhi. and The Republican can see no
good reason why such permission
should not be granted.
The statement in the letter OF the
Board Of Health to DR.. Augur saying.

ers OF lepers Is a source Of danger 10

Honolulu must not be behind
her sister cities in erecting a
suitable monument in honor of
the late President Mckinley San
Jose. California. a city not as
large as Honolulu. had already sub
scribed Ten Thousand Dollars toward
a monument fund when the last mail
left the Coast, and it was the inten-
ton to increase this sum to $4,000,
for which amount it was claimed fine
statue for Mckinley could be erected.
Honolulu is not only a larger city than
San jose. but a much Weather one.
and if that city can raise Fifteen Thou
sand Dollars for a monument to Nc
Kinley. surely Honolulu ought TO have
no trouble in raising Twenty-Five
Thousand Dollars for the same pur-
pose.

OUR CHURCHES.

Our churches are but the echo
the shadow or reflex, of our grea
political parties. In the states
where the parties believe in high
license there the churches incline to
high license. Where the state la
vors low license or local option there
the church is in general the same
color. But in all the states where
the conspiracy of silence has stilled
the parties against utterance and
agitation, the churches are an echo
and say silent amen. They are
allied organisms, ruled by the same
motive in common conspiracy ol
silence.
How can we ever get our brethren
to seriously consider our matter SC
long as we equally honor the license
voter with the Christian patri ot?
We simply never can. We set up
the standard in the state; why
should we not set it up in the
church? How can the man who is
not moral enough TO vote with, be
moral enough to commune with?
Let Prohibitionists and temperance
women everywhere pass this resolu-
ton and have it published and car
ried out: "We the undersigned
members Of -churcb, after due
delibel alton, decline to recognize
the services, or to honor in any Office
of the church or Sunday school ANY
one who votes TO uphold parties that
issue licenses for liquor dealing,
gambling or the like?"
Draw the chalk line in your
church and within a few months
you will witness a thoughtful dis
cussion Of the greatest religious and
moral question Of the d y. II will
in the mildest but surest way break
the conspiracy Of silence, and bring
to thousands who
will never be at the trouble TO think
so long as the license voter is equal
ly honored with the conscience vo-
ter.
The church as well as the nation
needs deep moral agitation to pu-
rify its members and society, OF
which it is to be lamp set upon a
hill ,op.-Phalanx.

The story is told of visitor at q

triotic speech by pointing to = ma
tional flag that almost covered one
end Of the room, and saying
"Now, boys, who can tell me what
that flag is there ior?" An unex-
pected reply was forthwith furni-h-
ed by one little fellow who piped
up: cts to hide the dirt" We
fear, Gays the New York Observer,
that the beautiful American flag,
the emblem so dear to the hearts
Of all, the symbol properly OF liber-
ty, law and order, in too many in
stances hides a good deal Of politi-
cal dirt, and by the unscrupulous is
made to stand for numbers Of things
with which properly 1t has no afiin-
ity. Legal enactments have tend
ed considerably to restrain common
desecration of the national colors,
but much NAV yet be done in the
way Of educating the public con.
science up (, the point Of constant
and jealous concern for the honor
Of the flag, lest in any wise 1t seem
To- be made an apology for corrup.
ton or greed.

more intelligent people, and ii il
Iagainst this class that these provis
ions would work such hardship
That the main body of these voter.
are expressing vigorously theil
righteous indignation, is conclusive
evidence that they feel the oppro
brium Of the statute.
The Australian ballot system in
force in the state Of Indiana, in the
past has compared favorably with
the system Of any other state.
Comes now the Republican legisla-
ture and passes a misnamed pri-
mary bill. from which secret ballot
ing is entirely eliminated. Under
this law every man must declare his
patty afiiliation by att nding the pri
mary Of a given party, and it is made
a criminal offense to vote at any
other. 1t is true that good party
politics would demand that candi-
dates be selected only by members
Of the party upon whose tickets the
names of the candidates are to be
placed. Yet good-faith reform legis
lation, to be true in effects, calls for
no act that would indicate an elect
|or's political beliefs or party affilia-
tions. Primaries should never be
made obligatory Dy any act Of the
Legislature.
BY various sections of the law,
autocratic powers are vested in Gen.
trail committees, far beyond tie
dream Of any Republican boss. The
party is put ct their beck and call,
and the individual voter is ostra-
cised. The chairman is made 10
himself political trust, and his
word is given legal authority.
Power is ever a dangerous COM
modify. When it is lodged in a.
party separated in principles and
sympathies from the welfare of the
citizens, it becomes a menace to the
very existence Of government. Gen.
tralization Of power is the starting
point for revolution.
The passage Of this law is as nat
ural to the Republican party as its
Of trusts and mpnopolies.
1t is another Of the frequent ex
amples Of its violation Of public con-
fidence; it is the coming true Of its
motto, for the few and not the many.
The same tendency is evinced byl
the lengthening Of the terms Of coun.
ty officers from two to four years,
and Of town and city officers from
one to two and four years-thus do
ing away almost entirely with the
educ ational influence of frequent
and the restraints upon
abuse of power by town and city Of

Ar THE meeting of the directors of the Williams Water Works Go. this week it was decided to make extensive improvements on the company's property east of town Over a year ago a canal was con structed to carry the water from a large area to the company's reser- voir, but experience has shown that the canal is far too small to handle the vast amount of water in that section at certain seasons. Accord ingly contract will be let for the work notice of which appears elsewhere in this issue-of widen ing the canal to twenty feet its en- tire length; dam No. 1 to be raised three feet and dam No. 3 to be raised two feet The work must be completed by December 15 so that all will be in readiness for the winter snows and rains.
