WHAT TO Do ABOUT 1T.

WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT
When a man says that gambling
cannot be stopped ask him if rob-
berry can be stopped, or embezzlement
can be stopped or murder can be
stopped? No crime or misdemeanor
can be utterly stopped, but that is no
reason why the laws against it should
be left unenforced or should give way
to any system of private license by
which the criminal may buy immunity.
Enforcement of the laws against rob-
berry and murder, Imperfect though it
may be, makes those crimes few and
far between Without it no street
would be safe and no house inviolate
The laws against gambling are de-
signed to be effective in the same way;
and they can be made as effective as
the statutes against capital crime if
the right-minded men of Hawaii say
the word. If our reform public bodies,
our Civic Fedora tons and Anti-saloon
leagues and churches would meet the
expenses of a crusade on large scale
as the Advertiser is meeting them on
a small scale, every single public
gambling game in Honolulu could be
ferreted out and it's owners and pat
rons punished by the courts. They
could drive places like Moore's into the
bushes and the canefelds and the dark
est alleys of the town and finally into
the sea Why not do it? There was a
day in Honolulu when civic spirit
famed so high that the mere threat
of a lottery helped to bring on a revo-
luton and dethrone a Queen. Is that
civic spirit in ashes now? 1 do not
believe it. I believe the time is near
at hand when the desire. now so fully
awakened, to make Honolulu more
sanitary city and a more beautiful
city, will express itself in an effort to
make it more decent city. Let US
have q Honolulu where vice and crime
may not plant their citadels on the
main streets. observed by everyone ex-
cept the police a city whose young
men are not misled into beggaring
themselves in pocket and in honor TO
keep rascaIs opulent; city whose
policemen will not have to ask of law
breakers permission to enforce the law;
a citv where politicians are not rotten
before they are ripe and where citi-
zens will not take orders from political
machines when the issue is simply one
of moral character in Office.

the first large conviction of gamblers
that had taken place here for many
years; and the only difficult thing in
securing it was to surmount the OBJ
stacles put in the way of justice by the
police.

game is upon them; they want to win
back the money they have lest and
| they begin to plunge as their elders
often do in the stock market. They
find that they need more and more
money. If they cannot always earn it
where do they get it? That is the
crucial question-where do they get it ?

very strongest of reasons to make war

SUPPRESSION OF GAMBLING.
But one hears the sneer, even from
business men, that the whole enterprise
is Quixotic-that gambling cartnot be
stopped. I grant you that private
gambling is hard to reach; but that IS
a little thing beside public gambling
and it is the latter We are dealing with.
The ease with which Nicholas and his
helpers were caught and convicted by
men who meant business shows that
public gaming houses are not half so
invulnerable as the police would have
US believe. Given honest and vigilant
policemen and the gambling bankers
will disappear into the most secret
places and starve for patronage.

SUE THEATRE TRUST.
Belasco Has Evidence With Which to
Invoke sherman Law.

Tacoma, Wash. Feb SIN def
ance of the theater trust, Blanche
Bates will open her engagement in
Tacoma Friday night. Two hundred
men are working night and day to
complete the auditorium of the Grand
theater by Friday night.
When work was started, two weeks
ago, the northwest representative of
the theatrical trust framed a bill for
passage by the legislature designed to
prevent the opening of the auditorium
by providing requirements which the
building cannot fill This move has
been killed by the statement of its OBJ
ject to Legislators by local agents of
David Belasco.
John Kirby, acting for Belasco, Sc
cured the Grand theater, a vaudeville
house, at Portland, from John Consi-
dine, who is associated with Timothy
Sullivan of New York in theatrical
enterprises. Kirby asserts that the
trust induced Considine to offer $10,-
900 if Belasco would release him from
the Portland contract. Belasco re-
fused.
Kirby declared Belasco's managers
have been quietly gathering evidence
for the past year all over the country
showing by kilograms, letters and
other communications that Belascc
and his attractions have been discrim-
mated against by Klaw & Erlanger
and agents of the theatrical trust
merous theaters. Kirby states this
evidence is to be placed in the hands
of Attorney General oMody with the
request that he proceed against the
trust for violation of the Sherman
law.

theater if it were possible for any one
else to open a theater for high class
attractions.
Under the arrangement of the
Crawford circuit with the theatrical
trust it is practically impossible Tor
any person to open a theater in To-
peka and get enough attractions to
play in the theater.
The Crawford management controls
both theaters in Topeka, and continues
the two closed while the people have
no alternative but to go to the Craw-
ford theater when they want theatrical
amusement.
If it We're possible for any one else
to open a theater in Topeka and get
the plays, it would not be long before Il
new house was opened. When 1t is
known that the plays could not be Sc
cured it is seen how foolhardy 1t would
be for a new house to open here.
Topeka people are staying away from
the Crawford theater because they be-
lieve it is unsafe, and on account of
the poor accommodations. The effect
Of this move on the part of the theater-
goers will be to make it harder for the
theater to book shows into Topeka next

more experience in treating female ills
than any living person.
Over one hundred thousand cases OK
female diseases come before Mrs. Pink
ham every year, some personally,
others by mail, and this has been go
ing on for twenty years, day after day
Surely women are wise In seeking
advice from woman OF such expert
ence, especially when it Is absolutely
free.
Mrs. Pinkham never violates the con-
fidence of women. and every testimo-
NAL letter published is done so with
the written consent or request OF tho
writer, in order that other sick women
NAV be benefited as they have been.
Mrs Fred Seydel, of 412 North saith

Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
"Over year ago wrote you letter asking
advice, az had female ills and could not
carry child to maturity. received your
| kind letter Of instructions and followed your
advice. / am not only well woman In con-
sequence, but have beautiful baby girl.
wish every suffering woman In the land would
write you for advice, as you have done so
much for me-"
Just rs surely as Mrs. Seydel was
cured, will Lydia K. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound cure every
woman suffering from any form OF
female ills.
No other medicine in all the world
has such record of cures of female
troubles as has Lydia r. Pinkham's

tute which a druggist may offer.
If you are sick, write Mrs. Pinkham,
