Workers Solemn WARNING.

There has been more than so per
cent increase in drunkenness among
the women Of America during the past
few years." announced the Rev. Har-
vey Wood in his speech before the
National Temperance Society in the
Young Peoples Temple at Ocean
Grove.
Rev. Mr.. Wood. who is the field and
financial secretary of the society, said
there was a large amount of drunken
ness among women in England, but
that the United States had been COM
paratively free from this vice until of
late years. In England 81 per cent of
deaths.o of children were caused direct

that temperance lectures often make
statements which are not true and
which hurt the cause.

BE Temperate"

We are commanded in Gods word
to be temperate in all things. But
we understand the term as here em-
ployed to refer to the use of intoxi-
eating beverages. This we consider
to be the curse of all curses, the
blight upon civilization. AS there is
no home safe from its invasion, no
one is free from its danger The
wrecks along the way that tell of its
deadly work are the tears of the
hungry. heart-broken women and
helpless children. the shrieks of the
condemned felon In his prison cell;
the blood Of the dying victim that has
fallen by the hand of the drunken
assassin.
1t robs home of its sweetness and
makes life curse. 1t robs men of
their living. of their honor, of their
soul. 1t robs God of his glory. 1t
mocks at religion. 1t laughs at tears.

The Medical Brief sounds a loud
note of warning in the following, that
cigarette smokers would do well to
consider:
Very few people are aware how
much harm is done to young men by
the almost universal habit of cigar
cite smoking. The man who smokes
cigarettes has one always in his
mouth, and is continually inhaling
nicotine until the system is saturated
with the poison.
The result of this practice Is a
catarrhal condition of the nose, throat
irritable state of the nerves, a weak
and rapid action of the heart and indi
gestion.
Thin, anemic. weak, with clammy
hands stained with nicotine poison,
unstrung nerves and degenerated mus
cles. the youth of the land go on ig-
norantly suffering the consequences of
pernicious habit until attacks of
heart trouble, nervous prostration,
melsncholia, etc, bring their condition
to the attention of the physician
If a man must smoke-and We admit
the charm Of the habit to those who
have become accustomed to its sooth-
ing influences-let him choose a mild
cigar, and have certain set times for
INDUCING. II he puts a certain re-
straint upon himself from the start in
the matter of smoking he will not
cverdo it, and there are few men who
can smoke more than three cigars a
day without injury.
1t goes without saying that never
under any circumstances should the
smoke be inhaled.

CONSERVATIVE LOAN POLICY

The loan policy of Governor Carter
may not fail of some words of criti-
cism from citizens especially anxious
for the construction of new roads. Il
must be admitted by even these how
ever that the plan has an advantage
OF being thoroughly conservative.
There can be no doubt that the strict
ly Territorial items coming under the
head Of appropriations for all islands
are proper objects of initial attention.
The obvious purpose OF the Legls.
lature was that the Territory should
20 further into debt, to the amount If
$l,337,000. Legislators are prone TO
vote loan appropriations literally and
1t Is possibly TO the advantage Of the
Territory that II can be held in check
by the executive authority exercised
by the President through the Gov
srnor.
The establishment OF local County
governments has changed the situation
materially. The Governor has o right
to believe that the Legislature might
have acted differently IL 1t were posi-
lively known that its County legisla-
ton was to stand the test of the
courts.
While this $3.50 900 Is being expend.
ed the people will be certain that the
money borrowed is going toward the
development of work that involves no
doubt as to its breadth of Territorial
character.

Judge Humphreys and Judge Perry
objected to the sitting on the Supreme
Bench of Judges De Bolt and Lindsay,
on the grounds that II was not proper
that they should be called to pass on
their own acts Of omission.
Milverton held that the two judges
could properly hear the matter. He
contended that the usual procedure in
any attack on the acts of the Circuit
Court would be to make II before the
Circuit Court itself, and to have that
court pass on It. After that the Cir.
cult Court judges might be disquali-
fed to sit on the Supreme Bench In
the matter, but they were not disQuali.
fed before they had already actually
passed on II. In this case the Circuit
Judges had refused to pass on the
question and had therefore not disqual.
fled themselves.

not think the two iudges were dis
