/ Temperance Union of the United States
had grown stronger and more infiu-
entail, and the leaders, especially Miss
Frances E. willard were DESTROYS of
extending it's influence to other lands.
A correspondence with Miss Willard
resulted in the uniting of the Com
mittee of Twenty-one'' and the Y. M.
C. A. to call Mrs. Mary Clement Lea
witt, who had been successfully Iectur-
ing on the Pacific Coast, to come to
Honolulu in the interests of temperance.
She arrived in 1884 and held a series
of meetings of which the chairman, in
a farewell note, said; 1.-THE whole
community has been most favorably
impressed by the calm, dignified and
kindly tone in which you have present
ed the unanswerable arguments of I'M
deniable facts in favor of total absti-
nence for the individual and total pro-
hibition by the government as the only
adequate remedy for the evils arising
from the use of alcoholic beverages. -
The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union of the Hawaiian Islands is one
result of her mission. Upon it's organ
ization the Committee of Twenty-one"
was, by mutual consent. disorganized
and it's archives passed over to the
w. c. T. u. as it's natural successor"
The following March Miss Mary E.
Green was secured to enter upon tenn
perance work for Hawaiians. In con-
nection with the Woman's Board OF
Missions Miss Green continued this
temperance and religious work until
her death last October.
While the w. c. T. u has continued
it's steady existence these eighteen
years, many other temperance societies
changed or funds have failed but their
work remains in many lives reformed,
the extent of which we shall never
know. We have listened to many ear
nest and eloquent temperance speakers,
notably two years ago Mr.. Francis
Murphy. About that time. also. the
Anti-Saloon League was organized by
DR.. E. S. Chapman of California, which
has not failed to be a great power in
our community. Its present effort is
to secure local option for these Islands,
ard the earnest wishes and aid of all
classes should go with them in this en-
deavor. In this line, Governor S. B.
Dole, in his recent message to the Leg
islature. makes the following recon-

LATER TEMPERANCE EFFORT
IN THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS

Following is an appendix to Mrs.
Whitney's recent History of Temper
ance in the Hawaiian Islands," bring
ing it up to date. Mrs Whitney wrote
the new matter by request of many
who were interested in the earlier chap
ters:
The scope of this brief history does
II not allow an extended account of re-
I cent temperance work. The writer's
effort has been to show the stand which
the early kings and high chiefs of this
little Hawaiian nation willingly took
upon the temperance question, doubt
| guidance.
In closing, however. 1t may be best
to show briefly that from the last cate
mentioned, 1882, to the present time,
there has never ceased to be earnest
effort on the part of men and women
| here to check the great tide of intern
perance which has been and is sweep
| ing over our beautiful Islands
In the years 1873 and 1874 a wonderful
revival of interest III the temperance
question arose in the United States,
inspired by the woman's temperance
crusade, which later ripened into the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union.
It was natural that this influence,
which was felt by all classes and in all
parts of the country, should reach this
distant land. The time came, there
fore, when Christian people here felt
that soma aggressive steps should be
taken upon the temperance question.
In 1881 a somewhat anomalous scheme
was devised, which served an admir-
able purpose at that time. This was to
have a large committee of Christian
men and wome1. interested in the sub
ject which, while they should not hold
stated meetings. should at any time
convene at the call of the chairman.
In April, 1881, an Informal meeting to
consider the matter was held i'll the
"Lyceum." which resulted in the or
ganization known as the COMMITTEE
of Twenty-one." From this number
various sub-committees were appointed
with power to add to their number
from others in the general committee.
Rev. DR.. C.. NJ. Hyde was the chairman
Of this committee during its whole eX-
istence, It's object was to conduct pub |
lie meetings, solicit signatures to the |
pledge, obtain statistics and other in |
formation for publication. work among |
the young, and endea1 or to enforce |
more perfectly existing laws relating to |
the manufacture and sale of intoxicat- |
ing drinks.
A series of interesting meetings were |
sustained for several months, support
ed mainly by home talent, which were
very effective in arousing public inter-
est. The following August, at the in
vitation of the committee, an evangel-
ist, Mr. NJ. L. Hallenbeck, came from
San Francisco to hold series Of gospel
temperance meetings. These meetings
soon developed into distinctively evan
gelistic services, and a great wave of
religious interest swept over all the
Islands, such as has never been wit
messed since, and which has never
ceased to be felt by individuals and
churches.
