We al know the evils of the liquor
traffic. We have been told over and
over So often that we do not perhaps
feel it as we ought. 1t has become trite
bur it is nevertheless true.
Drink demoralizes all it touches. 1t
clouds the brain, excites to demonlac
frenzy, produces an Unsuitable appe-
tite, depletes the system, fills our 1a1is,
penitentiaries, insane asylums ana
hospitals, diverts the money or the
country from the channels of legiti-
mate trade, causes graft, bribery and
corruption in municipal affairs, and
takes the bread from the mouths and
clothes from the backs of innocent wo-
men and children. And all for what!
To enrich q few, very few, OF our
citizens. Under our new law there will
be perhaps fifty licenses issued in Ho-
nolulu. We bear all the ills of this
helIish traffic for their benefit. Forty
thousand people suffer for the sake or
fifty dealers and at a liberal estimate
$50 people dependent on them. 1t is a
shame Perhaps the day is not far of
when the people of the Hawaiian Is
lands will arise in their might and
through the ballot put an end to this
diabolical business.
The first step in my opinion is the
adoption of local option law, so that
any precinct may by it's vote abolish
saloons in It's bounds.
This has been tried in most of the
States of the Union and in almost, II
not quite, all cases with success. 1t
has been especially successful where
the vote on the question has been put
before the people at each election SO
that the matter is always lin the lime
light" as it were, and the voters bound

Rev. E. W. Thwing, delegate from
Hawaii to The China Centenary Mis-
sionary Conference, held April % to
May 7, 1907, returned from Shanghai
on the S. S. Doric, and gives the fol-
lowing notes of the meetings.:
For a fortnight the conference was
in session, with 476 delegates, and 694
visiting members from twenty-five diff
ferent countries of the world Thirty
seven different missionary organizations
were represented.
The meetings were full of enthusiasm,
as the topics telling of the great prog
ress and future of Christian Missions
in China were considered. In 1907 one
Protestant missionary in China. Today
nearly 1000! The conference was held
in the newly finished Martyrs Me-
mortal Hall at Shanghai, and the motto
just over the platform, 'sUnum in
Christo,' seemed to give the key note
to the spirit of all the deliberations.
AS the many problems of the future
church of China were considered, every
one seemed to have the desire to press
forward with mutual helpfulness and
a closer cooperation "till we all attain
unto the unity of the faith. -

to consider it, 1t is this class of local
option law which we tried so hard to
ge. passed during the late session OF
the Legislature. BY majority of one,
and that in the Senate. the measure
was defeated. In the House which was
made I'D of native Hawaiians almost
entirely the act was passed by a large
majority.
But though the local option law was
not passed, the license law was, and it
is a great improvement on the old law.
Under it the license commissioners
may refuse to grant any license. If
good reasons are brought to their no.
tice the commission, which is made up
of men of the highest business integ-
rity, will be apt to refuse to grant the
license asked for. Any voter of the
precinct may present protest against
the issuance of any license Il be-
hooves the citizens who are affected by
the proximity of any saloon to enter
their protests at the earliest moment.
Any property owner within thousand
feet may protest So may the repre-
sentative of any church or school with
in $50 feet.
I trust that the citizens of Honolulu
injuriously affected by this traffic viii
arouse themselves and act promptly,
in order that the business may be so
restricted as to do the least possible
harm. c. H. DICKEY.

WANT SCHOOL Street
IN BETTER SHAPE

At the meeting Of tho School street
Improvement Club. held at the resi-
dence of ]. G.. Pratt the other evening
a number of matters were discussed
interesting 10 the jewellers on that
street.
The overhanging monkey-pod trees
and the great nuisance caused by their
falling pods was objected to- and 1t was
suggested that the road authorities De
asked to have them trimmed.
Attention was called TO the stagnant
POOL under the School street bridge
which was a breeding place for mos
ouitoes and source of disease. The
secretary was instructed to confer with
the president of the Board of Health
on the subject.
The main matter discussed. however,
was the state Of the roadway between
Fort street and Nuuanu avenue. II
was stated by one of the members
that no work had been done on TINS
stretch of street since the PAIN car
line had been removed As this was
some eight years ago. it was hard TO
believe. The following resolution was
unanimously adopted:
whereas. school street between Fort
street and Nuuanu avenue is In very
had condition and has been for many
years. and
Whereas. School street Is the con-
Meeting link between Nuuanu Valley
and the Makiki and Punahou districts,

connecting streets, boulevard free
from electric cars marred only by the
short section above mentioned: there

A CENTURY OF MISSIONS.

In the evening of April 90, at tie
great Town Hall of Shanghai, DR.. A.
H. Smith gave the first of the series
of popular addresses. His subject was
GA Centennial Survey and in his
mastery style, he told of the great
work in China, from the day of Morri-
son.
The names of the great leaders of
the past and present day were greeted
from time to time with cheers. The
benefits which DR.. Smith declared to
have been conferred on China by Pro
testant Christianity were, the idea of
a God, the raising of women, purer
lives of the people, weekly day of
rest, sense of discipline, educational

FIRST DAY.

The first morning was taken up with
consideration of the Chinese church,
looking to a basis of unity. AT first
there was much difference of opinion,
and it seemed as if no agreement could
be reached But at the afternoon ses-
sion the following resolution was unani-
mously passed:
.fThat this conference unanimously
holds the Scriptures of the Old and
New Testaments as the supreme stand
ard of faith and practice, and holds
firmly the primitive Apostolic faith;
further, while acknowledging the Apos-
ties Creed and the Nicene Creed as
substantially expressing the funda-
mental doctrines of the Christian faith.
the conference does not adopt any
creed as a basis of church unity.
The result was received by the meet
ing with unbounded enthusiasm, and as
one man all present rose to their feet
and Joined in singing the Doxology.

TRIPLE ALLIANCE
SECRET HISTORY
Russian Ambassador at Paris at
Time OF Its Formation Tells Of
Diplomacy Used.
MANY INTERESTS INVOLVED.
Military Portion of the Convention
Was Prepared With Scrupulous Care
England Party Engaged,

Paris. March Avery interesting
revelations concerning the diplomatic
history OF the triple alliance are made
in recently published volume entitled
1.-THE Enthusiastically at Paris of Baron
de Mohrenhe I'M" Mohrenheim WAS for
~ years the Russian ambassador AT
Paris and conducted the Russian end
of the neg otlations which resulted In
the dual alliance Jules Hansen. the
author of the book, was the counselor
OF the embassy during that period.
Hansen claims this information comes
from sure source" He says that be-
sides the official treaty constituting the
triple alliance with Its appended milf
tary conventions Emperor William and
King Hunlbert engaged their words of
honor TO remain true to the alliance
and to use every influence, should the
case arise, TO prevent their ministers
from dlssolving it. Emperor Francis
Joseph later joined this pact and auto
graph letters between the three sover-
eigns consecrating 1t were afterwards
exchanged. When made, Hansen says,
the kaiser was thinking only of France;
Emperor Francis Joseph only OF the
possible aggressions of Russia and the
Slavs In the Balkans, The military
portion of the convention was prepared
with the most scrupulous care. 1t fore
OF the Austrian and German forces on
the Rhenish frontier against France,
the union of the Italian and the German
fleets In the Baltic against Russia and
Joint operations OF the allied armies and
navies IN the Dardenells and beyond.
Hansen says
"This information is absolutely eN-
act ana one of the reasons Germany
always opposed the publication Of ths
treaty was because II contained as
many clauses against Russia as
against France. aud Its divergence
would only have fastened the conclu-
sion OF the dual alliance by dlssipat-
ing Russia's last hcsitations."
But the most curious feature OF the
history Is the statement that Eng
land was at one time practically party
to 1t.
"In the treaty az it existed before
1909" says MIR. Hanson. there was
clause or rather a reservation in
In no case could Italy be engaged in
league against England"
In the renewal of the treaty of 1902,
NJ. Prinettl forgot the reserve cover
ing England. Great Britain says
Mr.. Hansen, was very prudent ana

IN THE SAN JUAN.
Copper Deposits Begin TO Attract At
tention of Mining Men.

III San Juan county and across the
divide in Ouray. Colorado. there is
feeling THAI the copper resources In
both sections will cut a much larger
figure In the years TO come through de-
velopments now In progress. San
Juan county produced IN 1906 5000 ,250
pounds of red metal But when the
great copper producers at Red noun
tain get into full swing there will be
a better story to tell The grade OF
ore produced by the Yankee Girl and
Custom was much higher than those of
Butte, The Custom below the fourth
level was Al large producer of gold.
These mines. together with the Ma
tional Belle, Robinson. Genesee, Van
derhilt and Congress, occur in a por-
phyry formation below. and will event.
ually be worked down to the lime con-
tact, where IL Is expected larger ore
bodies will be opened, rivaling the
large copper mines OF Arizona. And
here is another encouraging fact. On
the east slope of Red mountain the
Henrietta mine now has 3O7.ll6 tons
OF copper ore in sight.
The formation is nearly identical
with that In the Custom and Yankee
Girl. The ore evidently comes from
the source, but the deposits, instead
OF being champneys, are in true flssure
veins with ore bodies from three IA
eight and half feet OF solid copper
running through the extensive veins
ments in the Henrietta have so far
been confined to the slope south OF
Prospect creek. on the opposite or
north side conditions are quite as IA.
vorable for the opening OF large bodies
of copper ore.
