greater.

One of the most peculiar exhibitions
of grab bag legislation was that given
by the lower house.at the close Of last
week when nearly $4,000 was forced
into the Emergency appropriation bill.
no one Directing to the items because
each seemed to have a pet scheme
Roads, wharves. bridges, buildings,
everything was put on except substan-
tiaI Territorial improvements, the idea
seemingly being to fix up the counties.
1t would appear that the legislators
might with profit weigh conditions be-
fore burdening a measure with alb
soIutely impossible items. The very bill
on which the items were placed carries
a proviso that no contract Of more
than $500 may be let without advertis-
ing. Do the merry members expect
that one Office can prepare all the plans
and specifications, advertise and let
contracts and have the work completed
by June 80 when the appropriations will
lapse? II so they are certainly an ex-
tremeIy credulous lot, those same legis-
lators.
For new work it is impracticable that
it be undertaken. Such a thing cannot
be done. With only six weeks remain
ing to do all the work ordered would
call for ten times the force now placed
In the Public Works Department. But
these considerations did not affect the
members. No indeed. not for them to

did it, the other fellow may worry; but
the result win be that probably 100000
worth of appropriations will lapse.

Editor Advertiser: AS native Ho-
nolulan I wish to endorse what you
said in connection with the baseball
game and the way the crowd greeted
the new man of the EIks, Perrine. I
am sorry to say that even some of the
Punahous, which team contains men
who have not been in the country for a
year, yet were guilty of thus showing
their feeling toward a player who may
yet prove a valuable acquisition to the
sportsmen of the city.
First it might be well to ask If the
League season does not promise to be
full of interest through the presence of
the Elks in the League? Is it not a
fact that the new team gave a Snappy
fast exhibition, one to please the
crowds, barring probably the single ex-
ccption of some of Cunhas remarks
when he seemed to gloat over all the
rest unnecessarily. Most of the players
are men who have seen service, and
who have been well received in the
when. having deemed it wise to use a
man newly arrived from the Coast,
they did so.
Another point appears to me. When
the Elks entered the League they took
up a fair team but found themselves
without pitchers. They might have
been able to secure one of the men
from an older club, but had they done
so it would have been a great blow.
At least one pitcher in the League
wants to pitch to Cunha, but should he
leave his team it would suffer material
~. The Elks would not even officially
talk with the men on other teams but
secured a new man who was coming
here to live. This should rather entitle
the team TO the friendship of the others
instead of their enmity
As a baseball fan I regard the out
come of the games Saturday as most
beneficial TO the sport. 1t shows the
II. A. Cs. that practice and not reputa-
ton makes a ball team. There must
be work and there will be too and the
cup-holders will not again be beaten so
easily Then too the Kams will brace
and get into the game in real earnest
The men have not prepared as they
should in spite of your forecast in
formation. What then can result but
that the game will be improved
But 1T is TO be hoped our people will
not again show such bad form or such
unsportsmanlike behavior as marked
them Saturday.

USES OF STATISTICS.

It is timely that Hawaii is taking ur
the matter of the establishment Of q
bureau for the collection and preserva-
ton Of statistics. as at Washington at
the present time the building up of a
national permanent bureau is being
strenuously considered. At a recent
meeting Of statisticians in the. capital
the new head Of the census bureau,
Afr. North. pointed out that one Of the
greatest defects in government Stats
tics arose from discrepancies existing
between the returns made by the sew
eral departments and bureaus of the
government. One glaring example OF
this was the difference of over ILL.,
000. 900 bushels between the estimates OF
the Census Bureau and of the Agricul-
turaI Department as to the wheat crop
of 1900. The suggestion was made that
the grouping of several statistical
agencies under the new Department of
ConHnerce would remedy this defect to
some extent, and that cooperation in Of
fetal statistical work would be OF much
value.

CURE FOR
CONSUMPTION

Special Gable Dispatch TO y. I. Sun.
BERLIN. April 21--what is claimed
by its inventor as an entirely new
remedial treatment for consumption
! is attracting the attention of lung
specialists and the medical pro .ession
generally. 1t consists Of the inhaIa-
ton of a vapor produced by heating
mixture Of eucalyptus oil, sulphur
and charcoal, and it is stated that It
is more effective than any serum or
other remedy hitherto tried.
Robert Schneider. druggist of Ber-
lin conceived the idea while travel
ling in parts of Australia where the
Eucalyptus tree grows luxuriantly.
Consumption is practically unknown
among the inhabitants of these dis
tricts, and sufferers from the disease
who go there speedily improve.
Herr Schneider upon returning to
Berlin communicated his idea to Prof.
Sommerfeld, a physician of repute,
who experimental in several hospitals
for six months. AS a result, sixty out
of 100 patients treated by him were
completely cured. The inhalation or
the vapor kills the bacilH. In some
cases the patients were kept in an
atmosphere impregnated with the
fumes night and day until they show
ed signs of relief.
DR.. Sommerfeld will read a paper On
the subject before the Berlin Medical
Society at the end of April, asserting
that the new curative agent, which is
called sanosin, constitutes an enormous
advance in the treatment of tubercu-
Iosis.

THE PACIFIC
HOURS OF LABOR.

No subject attracts the attention
noIiticaI economists with so much o
hope that a remedy will be found Iol
too long hours Of labor, as the ques'
ton OF how to limit the days Work OF
pubI.c contracts Now that the loca-
legislature has entered the field with a
law the opinions OF courts al older
states attract attention. n New YORK
a county road construction company
required employees TO work ten hours
day. The Court Of Appeals finally got
the case and decided in favor of the
demurrer of the company TO the indiet-
nent. there being an eight-hour law IN
the state
The court OF last resort holds, in the
first place, that the statute cannot be
upheld as an exercise Of the police pow
or vested in the legislature. The field
for the exercise OF the police power is
very S.,ad, and its limits have never
been concIusively defined. 1t is recog-
nized that the legislature may under
that power restrain and forbid what
would otherwise be the right Of a pri-
vate citizen in the interest OF public
health. Of public morals and Of public
order. 1t may enact laws to regulate
the extent OF the labor which women
and children or persons Of Immature
years shall be allowed TO perform, and
prohibit altogether their employment in
dangerous occupations. So it may lin
it the hours of employment of adults in
dangerous occupations. and possibly
may prohibit the performance of ex-
cessive physical labor in all callings.
The statute in question, however.
does not. the court says, deal with the
character Of the work, the age, sex or
condition Of the employees, or even the
personality of the employer, but only
applies to the case of a contract with /
the state or a municipality, and the
court pertinently asks what possible /
bearing on the health or security OF the
employees has the fact that the en-
ployer is executing a contract for the
or performance Of a state
or municipal work. The company
might be constructing in the next town
a road for a turnpike company, or for
its own use. and might require labor
for as many hours as it could get work
men to perform, while the same action
involving the same character of work,
when done in performance Of a contract
with the public, is by the statute made
criminal.
In the view of the court the vice of
the statute is the arbitrary distinction
drawn by it's provisions between per-
sons contracting with the state and
those contracting with other employers.
II was urged that the work was a state
work. and that the legislature might
prescribe rules for the manner in which
It should be performed. The court ad-
mits that the state may prescribe regu-
Iations for the conduct of it's employees
where it prosecutes a work itself, but
it holds that no such right exists where
It has let out the performance of the
work TO a contractor unless it is reserv-
I'd by the contract. The state in this
respect stands on the same basis as Its
citizens. Its rights are just as great
as those of private citizens, but moi
greater
