AN APPEAL FOR THE YOUNG
By Mrs. S. e. Damon


apparent To- every passor by ON our
streets that bottles of liquor can De
obtained readily, vile aus the stun often
u.s. and the more indecent stages of a
mars degradation accomplished behind
closed walls II is not only the men
who are being ruined but the women,
who can frequent these places, and OBJ
tain private boxes for their own in
terests. Hundreds Of homes are living
hells i'm this place. Children have as
example but drink and debauchory and
it is impossible for the schools 90 take
the place Of the parents whom God has
provided for the moral education Of
their offspring I appeal to my fellow
citizens to enlist their interest in the
framing and enforcing of better laws.
l appeal 10 them on the ground Of their
duty as Christians to practice self
denial; to their duty to the weak brother
whoever he may be, so as to enable him
by example. truth and prayer to em-
brace better and purer ways Of living,
Especially is the Hawaiian the prey to
present conditions. Having seen such
homes of desolations, so many bright
young girls ruined at the start, not only
by their own people but the stronger
white man, my heart burns with a de-
sire to save them from the stain of
shame and ignomy, which damn the
soul forever and forever. For the heart
can only witness to present conditions
and a life of careless debauchery is fed
and encouraged by the vile connections
placed i'm their way as wines and alco-
hols.
Can we heartily thank God for his
mercy and blessing and enjoy the privi-
leges of Christendom while we sell
death and hell and with the proceeds
thereof beautify our city, and enrich
our pockets? The Hawaiian is not the
only sufferer, our Asiatic immigrants,
brought here to enable us to develop
our industries, find too soon an open
door by which they can buy and sell
justice. Such are the conditions owing
to our selfish and wilful blindness.
Have We become paralyzed to all sense
of justice and righteousness? that we
permit such open violation of laws
which we boast to be the product of our
Christian CD civilization. We cannot

genuine interest in the welfare of our
people to promote a moral and law
abiding people.

M'CLANAHAN
HEARS FROM BRYAN
THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE
FOR CONGRESS ADDRESSES two
LARGE MEETINGS.

The Democrats held two meetings last
night, M,Clunahan produced the fol-
lowing CaD.csram and it was received
with applause:
"iineolE, Nebraska, oct. "a.
"Mc( lanahan, Honolulu.
Letter received. No danger of limi-
tation of suffrage.
"WM. JENNINGS BRYAN"
In explanation of the message, Nc
Clanahan said: when l was first no.
minated for Delegate to Congress
feared that this charge would be
brought against me-that 1 would try
to have the Hawaiians DISTINGUISHED
and l sat down and wrote letter to
William Jennings Bryan, whom have
the honor to know personally. l told
him of my being nominated and that if
| was defeated it would be through
the prejudice of the Hawaiian people
for a white man through fear of dis
franchisement. l told him that | thought
the Hawaiians knew him well enough
to believe what he would say, and 1
asked him to send a message to the Ha-
waiian people on this question. When
| got back from Hawaii l found this
message from Mr.. Bryan, and tonight l
read it to you for the first time"
Harry Swinton spoke for McClanahau
and roasted Sam Johnson, a ing among
other things that the latter knew moth
ing about making roads and was oil
ing the streets only where big bugs"
lived w, A. Kinney referred to the
numbered ballot proposition and said
to,
simpler election law. Joe Fern spoke
in Hawaiian, Portuguese and English,
calling for Democratic votes by those
who wanted good government. NJ. a.
Silva discussed the booze issue.
we are not coming before you to
make drunkards of you as the Repub-
Leans are" he said. The Republican
party knows that you will not vote the
straight Republican ticket unless the
people have lost their senses and that
they will through their booze. You
will not sell your votes for a lousy
glass of beer"
At Liliha street another large crowd
listened to Democratic eloquence. J.
X. Prendergast was chairman. :. *.
Kaloa was the first speaker. He told
OF MS campaign tour win McClanahah
and said there had been strong sup
port shown at the meetings Trent
spoke for McClanahan and roasted the
Republican beer, urging any who might
get drunk on Republican beer to sober
up in time to vote the Democratic
ticket. w. A. Kinney repeated his dis
cussion Of the ballot and election law
matter. Jarrett spoke for the straight
ticket.
Il, Like roasted the supervisors for
falling to appropriate money to bring
the band back here and attacked Kuhio
for having, as he said, tried to abolish
the Hawaiian language within ten
years. Iaukea discussed the police and
the machine, repeating his promise to
enforce the laws If elected sheriff,

briefly and then Mechanism was call
ed upon. He discussed the Cuban is
sue. He said that Kuhio was against
Cuban annexation and so We're the Re-
publican candidates. They unfortunate
ly, however, belonged to the party
which favored annexation with all the
disaster it forebode to Hawaii. The
Democratic party was opposed to the
annexation of an alien land. 1t had
been opposed to the annexation of Ha-
wall and Cuba which the Republicans
had comprised.
After McClanahan had been speaking
on the Cuban issue on Hawaii and Maui
for three weeks, the Republicans had
begun at last to sit up and take no
tice. He had heard that they intended
to combat his arguments and was very
anxious to hear what they had to say
on the subject. ..--
Regarding the statement made, by
those who ought to know better, that
Mechanism intended, if elected to dis
franchise the natives, The story was a
falsehood and made out of the whole
cloth. The Organic Act effectually pre-
vented this. Once an American citizen
always an American citizen The right
to vote could never be taken away from
an American citizen on account of his
race or color.
The Delegate to Congress had no
right to vote. All he could do was to
talk on behalf of his country. Kuhio
apologi2ed repeatedly for being a poor
speaker. Was this the kind of man to
send to Congress to represent Hawaii?
The Delegate, in order to get the ear
of Congress on behalf of Hawaii, must
be a talking man

THE ARBITER OF SPELLING.

Not all the governmental personages
on earth, nor all the educational bodies,
can have so much influence on the
spelling Of the language as the humble
necessary printer. 1t is he who is res
ponsibe for many Of the present ortho-
graphical twists, and it is he who will
remove those twists again when the
spirit moves him. He looks with cold
distrust upon any innovation which he

1t is surely the duty Of every parent
to take an interest in the social sur
rounding of his or her children, and to
do everything towards the lettering Of
laws and conditions Many whose chill
dren are still young do not pay much
attention to the laws permitting or res
training evils and vices Of many kinds.
1t is not conceivable to their minds
that those children accustomed to ODE
dience viii some day decide for them
selves and no longer inform the parents
of his or her action. Possibly the
child may never have heard its parent
express an opinion, much less take an
interested stand on the question Of
drinking, gambling and immoral living.
These subjects are not pleasant. Per-
haps not but how vital they are to the
welfare of mankind i'm this present age.
The demands Of the sensual nature of
man have no restraints i'm this small
town. Every corner seems to invite
him to satisfy his cravings, and the
natural appetites are abused too often
beyond remedy Much can be done i'm
the home to promote self denial, for
example and experience, are good teach
ers. But the outside attractions which
invite a man to ruin show only the
bright side of it's evil nature. How
many boys are being led astray enticed
by attractions apparently pleasing, such
as our restaurant saloons. They have
respectable title signbolrds and to many
may appear as remedy to prevent a
man from drinking too much, But
more often to start sober-minded
young boy to acquire a thirst which
may curse him all the days of his life
and end in a ruined moral character
Without going into the details Of the

evil to be countenanced by law, it is

STRIKE IN FRANCE.
Miners in the Lens District are Com
 parativeIy Quiet

Lens. France. April 1.-The striking coal miners of this district were compara- lively calm today. There is, however. great indignation against the Bruay miners who continue working notwith- standing threats of violence. The troops have been reinforced in that vicinity in order to prevent collisions, but no display of force has been made.
 The body of Botel. the striker killed yesterday by Caron, the man who refused to join the strikers, and was in conse- quence attacked at his home near Lens, was conveyed for burial to a distant vll- lage in order to avoid violent demonstra- tlons. Several strikers meetings were held, in the course of which the determin- ation was expressed to insist upon the demands that have been made.
 The corpnanies have not replied to the request a resumption of negotiations. Minstes Public Works Barthou arrived at Courrieres and distributed the decor ations awarded to the miners who were taken from the pit last Friday. The cere- mony was at the hospital where the miners are under treatment. The minis ter afterwards, wearing miners work ing costume descended into the mine from which the survivors escaped and made a thorough examination Of it. He witness ed the recovery of several bodies.
