GOVERNORS PLAN
OF SEEING Cabinet

In order that he may keep in closer
touch with the several heads of de-
partment, Acting Governor Atkinson
has revived the old system of setting
certain hours upon given days in the
week when he can see these gentle
men and go over with them the mat
ters arising within the jurisdiction of
each that may require the attention of
the head of things. The days when
the several heads are to be seen are
Wednesday and Thursday, on which
days few steamers come into port.
The Wednesday men are Land Com
missioner Pratt, whose hour for con-
sultation is 10 a. m; Superintendent OF
Schools Babbitt, who comes at IL
O'clock High Sheriff Henry, who will
be seen at 2:30 p. m; Surveyor Wall,
who comes at three in the afternoon,
and Attorney General Peters, who is
on hand just one hour later
On Thursday, President Pinkham of
the Board of Health comes at ten in
the morning, Treasurer Campbell win
be seen one hour later, and Superin-
tendent of Public Works Holloway
will call at two in the afternoon. This
completes the tale

TWENTY-FIVE DAYS
TO SUBMIT CAST

There will be long wait before first

file opening briefs, the United States

ply and, finally, five days to defendants
for closing briefs.

literature, did the United States advo
cate draw expositions of the nature OF

Messrs. Ballou and Wilmington re
piled to Mr.. Dunno in the afternoon

LEGISLATURE AT FAULT.

In talking to one of the largest en-
ployers of poolas. in Honolulu, he told
me that since the saloons had multi
piled, and liquor was easy to pur-
chase. and its quality so poor. more
men had been incapacitated for work
by drunkenness than ever before. He
said, also. that If he continued to lose
his laborers at the present rate, he
had no doubt that before long he
would have to employ japanese to do
the work. 1t is a pretty serious state
of affairs, but the present liquor law
is to blame.
/ trust, when You send your next
representatives to the Legislature
they will come pledged to do some
thing TO change this condition. 1 will
hand your protest to the Treasurer.

LICENSES BY FRAUD.

Treasurer Campbell has received a
letter from Theodore Richards, of the
League. complaining that the license
issued to Sing Sing, at Kainaliu, Ko-
ma, and the license OF Shibayama, at
kealakehua, Kona. were both issued
by fraud. and asking that an investi-
cation be made and the licenses re-
voked.
II am looking into these cases" said
Treasurer Campbell yesterday, "and
win act on the evidence as get H..
on. there Is no question that there
has been an Increase in the number
Of saloons In the Territory under the
provisions OF the new law. / do not
count tie number OF licenses that have
been issued TO old places, nor the
number that have been changed. Just
of the new licenses there has been an
increase, Ana, OF course, there have
been a number that have lapsed, where
saloons are now out OF existence"
Speaking upon the same subject,
Treasurer Campbell some days ago eN-
pressed the opinion that number
~ the new licenses would not be re-
ntwed at the end OF the present iiscal
year, on June 80, baslng his opinion

INCREASE IN SALOONS.

OF the regular saloon licenses, the
Treasurer's figures show that there
were issued one hundred and forty
three under the new law. OF these,
forty are for new saloons. And in
cluded in the one hundred and three
remaining, are the old beer stores
each one of which has taken out a
full saloon license under the new law.
This win account for at least half of
The number, so that there are forty
new saloons, places where liquor was
never sold before, in the Territory
under the new law, and about fifty
beer places that have fiowered into
ull-fiedged saloons.
The Anti-Saloon League has taken
up the fight against this condition
somewhat actively, and included In its
data which its agents collect there are
some records of what are believed to
be fraudulent licenses. The League. OF

ATKINSoN's ANSWER.

To T. X. r. Amalu, President, and the
Others.
Aloha Oukou: I beg leave to ac-
knowledge the receipt of the COM
munication from your society, dated
March II, protesting against the
granting of liquor licenses to Kwong
Sing and Ah Yet, and giving five rea-
sons why same should not be granted.
If you will refer to the liquor law,
as passed by the last Legislature, you
will see that protests, to have any eff
feet, can only be made in certain
way. I have already written to Judge
Kaai and told him how legal protests
can be made.
Formerly, the power to refuse a IL
cense was in the Governor, but the
last legislature, in its infinite wis
dom, took the power away; and l have
no hesitancy in saying that since then
saloons have sprung up all over the
country and there has been a very
great increase in drunkenness.
l hope that you people will bear this
in mind when you send your next rep
resentatives and senators to the Leg
islature. / wins that ii was in my
power to grant your request. but 1t is

PETTY CRIME INCREASING.

AS to petty CRIME, II is well known
that it is alarmingly on the increase,
Ind this is particularly true of small
burglaries and thieving. Perhaps,
however, the worst feature of the new
saloons is that boys and very young
men frequent them so much. This
condition exists, not only in Homo
ulu, but throughout the Territory as
well, statement that Is borne out by
the increased number of liquor Ii
censes that have been taken out under
the new law.
Figures given by Treasurer Camp
bell yesterday show that there have
been one hundred and five fifth-class
liquor licenses issued since the new
law went into effect, and of these
ninety-six have been issued for the
sale of liquor at places that did not
handle it before. Most of these places
are country stores, outside of Homo
lulu. 1t was complained, when the
liquor law was under discussion in the
Legislature. that there was need for a
class of licenses for country stores,
where travellers could get beer and
liquor in bottles as they drove along
the roads. and it was for this class of
place that the fifth-class license was
designed But it was never designed
that every store should become a gin
mill

DRUNKENNESS ON
INCREASE UNDER
NEW LICENSE LAW

IT am very seriously alarmed at the
condition that has arisen under the
operations of the new liquor law, the
increase of drinking and drunkenness
among the native Hawaiians, espe-
cially, and the incapacitating of the
native from working" said Ac.iiiS Gov
ernor Atkinson yesterday. "The evit is
to be noted particularly among the
gangs of dock laborers. Why, one of my
friends who is in charge of lot of
these at the docks tells me that he Is
fearful. IL he can not devise some way
to keep his men sober, he will have
to let them go and get Japanese to
do the work. Those who understand
the situation here will appreciate what
hardship this will work. He went
aboard ship being unloaded in the
harbor the other day, and found his
stevedores in the hold with a big
demijohn of very bad liquor.
And 1t is not only the increase In
the consumption of liquor that has
followed the enactment of the new
aw but the liquor that is being sold
in the deadfalls about town is of the
vilest character. 1t is the adulterated
stuff that makes men devils, and kills
them in short order. What is to be
zone about it? 1 do not know. But
here must be some steps taken, and
soon, to protect the Hawaiians."
CAUSE FOR ALARM.
How much cause there Is for the
alarm of the Governor over the con-
1ition that exists can be readily
realized by one who will take a walk
through the lower quarter of the
town, and note the large number of
Japanese saloons, deadfalls every one
If them, that have been opened there
since the new liquor law went into eff
sect. Ribald noises of song and inde-
cent jest float out of these places from
the lips of men who have become
drunken in them, and crowds of ma
tives may be seen reeling in and out
of them at all hours i'm the evening
OF course, there are more of these
drunken men on Saturday night. wher
the dock laborers are paid off, but
there are drunken men, most of them
natives, although an occasional Chi
nese or Japanese Is seen among them,
every night. American soldiers and
sailors, too, get into these places, and
rarely get out of them with any
money
