agreeable surprise to me-the apathy
and lack of information as to the liquor
problem among the best people. Speak
ing broadly, / find no agitation here
about the saloon save that provoked
by a disgraeeful bill that threatened
in the present session of the Legisla-
ture; and the antidote offered for that
is ,one of remedies long since discreu-
it'd at home.
] IThere is but one remedy for the sa-
lbon, and that is no saloon. The va
lrious forms and elevations of the IL
cense system have no decent Christian
following in the States; but Prohlb1-
ton, on the conscience argument, forti-
fed, of course, by the economic and in
dustrial considerations relatively equal
in eogency stands alone, among the IN
telligent and the Christian voters and
agitators. The saloon has to be ban
ished from this Territory as condI-
ton precedent to material prosperity,
moral advancement, political statehood,
social stability, and victory, and the
Christian men must Danish it or knew
themselves as weaklings, who in the
nature of things will lose their own
sons and daughters from the fold of
Christ, if not into the army of the
camp followers of legalized vice.
A work of surprising usefulness IS
opening to the Anti-Saloon League,
which is or ought to be, the church
specialized for political work against
the licensing of saloons. It's work is
at the very heart of Territorial politics.
It ought to know and let the Christian
voters know what is planning or going
on in liquor politics. and in regard to
violations of the present law, to pre-
sent to all candidates for the Leglsla-
ture written questions as to their att1-
tude to the licensing of saloons and
publish their answers or their failure
to answer, to keep the record of every
legislator on the liquor problem, and
publish it in his favor or against HIM
if he stands for reelection; to conduct
an year-round campaign of ed
ucation by newspapers, tracts and pub
lie meeting in the churches. under d.
rection of the pastors, and to present
to every Legislature prohibltory law
and push it until it passes.
The law now is Dermissive. From
now on, every law proposed or amend
ment of the existing law, ought to be
prohibitorv in character. No Christian
ought to be asked. nor any Christian
permit himself. to support a permits
sive measure. Prohibit the saloon from
opening on Sunday, but never con-
sent for it to open on any day
Prohibit the saloon from re-
maing open after, say, ten O'Clock
at night. .ut never consent to it being
open at ALL Always Prohibition. So
shall we. keep our hands clean and tit

is not very far away when the public
sentiment of the nation will revolt at

GROIN THE FRIEND.)

On my first visit to this Territory,
four years ago, 1 had somewhat the
sense of being foreigner. But hap
PLY I find that passed, at this time,
and in it's place feeling of being to
the manner born.
The beauty, novelty and mystery of
sky and sea and soil, the riches of
romance, the solid potentialities of fact
and the determination of everything,
including investment, politics and re-
ligion, to rainbows, fill the first fort
night of the tenderfoot with new ex-
periences; but as his vision gets adj
-iusted to the unaccustomed lights and
shadows he finds himself confronting
the same ola problems that he has
grown up with and into, on the main

/ had heard at home and have heard
here some doleful prophecies about the
Islands, both as to the moral and the
material outlook, which seem to be
foundationless or near it. On the con-
trary, the situation is not more unique
than inspiring in the difficulties it
presents. The appeal of Hawaii is to
quality, and the field for the high-class
man is whitening to tine harvest.
