GAMBLING AND ENLIGHTENMENT

Generally speaking, the embezzler
has a gambling game to lay it to. If
he is fugitive broker or bank official
or fiduciary agent of any kind, the
chances are that his trouble dates from
flyer in the stockmarket. An en-
bezzling clerk or official is likely to
have played the races; and of the small
fry of embezzlers there are few that
did not take the poker route. 1t was
said the other day that the relation
borne by the Bungalow poker games
and free gin treats of two or three
years ago to the defalcations that
followed among officials who frequent
ed the evil place, was more than a
coincidence. Whether the charge is
true or not it shows how closely the
idea of gambling and crime is associ-
ated in the public mind. 1t stands for
cause and effect.
The open gambling joint is RESPONSE
bic for Vivian Richardson's trouble and
of that of scores of other young men,
some of whom are now in exile. The
moment young fellow scores loss
at cards he starts in to get it back and
is convinced that he has the skill or
luck or system which will enable him
to win from better men at the game.
The surer he is of himself the more
likely he is to borrow from other peo-
pies funds, fully intending to make the
deficit good; and he is stunned, when
the crash comes, to find that he is an
embezZler The game is costly one
which first takes the young mans
money, then the money of his friends
or employers, then his reputation and
then his right to live at home. Yet
such games are running and are well
patronized, year in and year out; run
ming here in Honolulu as safely and as
Systematically as they ever did in the
red light district of great city, There
is one today within biscuit toss of the
busiest corner of Honolulu, others in
saloons and all are tempting young fell
lows to live far beyond their means.

GAMBLING AND ENLIGHTENMENT.

The open gambling which went ON for
weeks on the principal corner of the city
gambling which was as easy TO reach
and as undisturbed as the bar of Ii
censed saloon-is said TO have been re-
sponsible for the downfall of young
Richardson. who is now under arrest on
a charge OF embezzling money from the
Water Works bureau.
Richardson is not the only one. Tha,
gambling joint and others like II have
worked the ruin, morally ani financial
ly, OF scores of young men, All mig It
sessions We're held, all sorts of games
We're played and everything went until
the Finn shooting case brought out the
truth about the place and Obliged the
authorities to take action. Lately We
understand, several OF the games have
started up again.
II would be well for employers, public
and private, 10 adopt the metropolitan
method OF keeping their young rlen un-
der surveillance, Things are tpo easy
now for the restless youth In this wlde-
open or half-open town 20 run nstIaY
with money that does not belong "a

HOMF.SEEKeRS WANTED.

Colonist's tickets to California are
being sold at SS3 from Chicago, $50 from
st. Louis and s25 from Missouri river
points, the tickets being good in tourist
sleepers. These trains are running full
to the coast
Suppose Hawaii's public land, suit
able for colonists, was put on the mar
ket at one time and an arrangement
made for cheap rail and steamer rates,
does any one suppose that we would
lack for visitors and new population?
What Hawaii needs as much as tour
lists, even, is a rush of homeseekers,
people who will come here TO stay. But
when such people inquire about land
they get little satisfaction and when
they ask about fares they get less

An American Territory without coun-
ties exists in Alaska. A large Ameri-
can city without municipal or county
government or the power to vote, ex-
lists in the District of Columbia. Coun-
ties have been abolished in the great
area. part of it rural, under the mu-
nicipal jurisdiction of New York. AS
subdivision of New York, the city of
Brooklyn, with 100000 population, has
n borough government. 1t is seriously
proposed to abolish counties In New
York State. Some American insular
dependencies are governed by naval
officers; the greatest of them all by a
Commission, the majority of its mem-
bership appointed from the mainland.
To talk of "Amercanism" as demand
ing the machinery of "A State for Bn-
wall is the insufferable cant of the
political grafters who want to exploit
this Territory for their private gain
Americanism permits variety of gov
ernments suited to special conditions;
and the special conditions here call for
the simplest and least expensive gov
eminent that can be devised.

American system, state where the
idea first took hold, is beginning to be
doubtful of-the value of counties. The
| Buffalo, N. Y, Express. a journal oil
| large influence, approaches this point
of view In manner as follows;
Separate county government has been
abolished so far as the Constitution
| will permit, in the counties composing
Greater New York. There are no
boards of supervisors there. There
appears to be traditional notion that
county governments are necessary out

/ to consider whether they are worth
| the cost of maintenance anywhere! do
not the rural towns get as little beneht
from them as the cities? The towns
do their own police work, or at least,
| the greater part Of it. and could do 1t
all. They maintain their own local
courts. They get no help from the
counties for their schools, and, except
where the new state-aid law is APP
piled. none for their roads. They usu-
ally take care of their own poor, by
private charity, except insane persons
and others who are provided for In

PURE FOOD.

The need of national pure food
law, severe in it's terms, is all the while
recurring. Adulterated food products
are common in this market but they
cannot be driven out by local laws
without doing injustice to innocent re-
tail dealers and cutting off a large
part of the common food supply with
out getting a better product in it's
place
In the report of the local food ana
lyst printed yesterday, the names of
the largest grocery firms here We're
given as sellers of impure canned food
These firms are above cheating; the
brands of goods are first-class; the
wholesale buyers purchased the best
they could find in the market. Had
they refused to buy these and similar
goods on the ground or adulteration
they would have had to shut up shop.
1t has come to such pass that man.
ufactured food products cannot be had
in a state of natural purity and the
same is true of many food products
which are not manufactured.
Reform means reaching the manu-
facturers, not the retailers and jobbers
and this can best be done by Federal
enactment on the Interstate commerce
principle. If all the States would con-
cur in drastic legislation so much the
better; but this is condition not yet
foreseen. Still if Congress leads the
way the States may eventually follow.
