AGAINST THE
SPECIAL SESSION

An extra session of the legislature is
being seriously considered, for the pur-
pose of readjusting our finances. While
it is to be sincerely hoped that the Su-
preme Court will cut the Gordian knot,
still, that failing, an extra session
may prove a necessity. But all hearts
sink at the thought of another extra
session, not so much on account of the
cost as the liability of harm that may
be done by attempts to go outside of
necessary work. If all the members
felt responsible to their constituents,
some hope might be entertained that
proper legislation could be had during
brief and satisfactory session. But
the trouble is, as is we'll known, that
there are a lot of irresponsible lunk-
heads in the makeup of the present
Legislature who will dam-and damn
all efforts to hold brief business ses-
sion. For this reason the people of the
Islands, who honestly have the good of
the Islands at heart, would rather not
see an extra session If it is possible to
avoid it.-Maui News.

Of dream.
In this dream he was carried into. a
beautiful country. After driving for
miles and miles, he stopped before mag
nifcent palace. IL was built OF marble,
and the carving was of the finest work

The building was of enormous size, COW

Others have been improving their time and
talents. 1t rests upon You alone to make
this place perfect" The young man
awoke, saw the lesson taught by the
dream, and set to work TO marb.eize his

STRIPES WORN eY coNvIcrs.
Their Use Based on the Authority Of
the Scriptures.


Did you ever stop 10 think about
the origin OF stripes we use in our
PRISONS" said man with an eye for
the curious. IF you have not, II will
not take you long 10 figure the thing
out II YOU happen To- know anything
about the Bible. The fact is that we
get the ideas from the old dispense
tion. When l say We | mean the
people OF our civilization, OF our own
day and time. and who live under and
are guided by our systems and notions.
For instance. I'm the laws and ordi-
nances OF Deuteronomy we find the
following. which will give us clew
10 the origin OF stripes as badge OF
infamy: II there be a controversy
between men. and they come unto
judgment, that the judges may Judge
them, then they shall Justify the right
eous and condemn the wicked. And IL
shall be, II the wicked man be worth,
10 be beaten, that the Judge shall
cause him 10 lie down and be beaten
before his face, according 20 his fault,
by certain number. Forty stripes he
may give him. and not exceed, lest II
he should exceed and beat him above
these with many stripes, then thy
brother should seem vile unto thee
Now. instead of infiicting these physi'
cal stripes, we put striped clothes on
the men who offend the law, or who
may come unto Judgment. that the
judges may Judge them as IL Is put
In the text. OF course YOU should 10
