nature that they should be- But they
have expressed themselves as salts
fed. They have agreed 10 the condi-
tons imposed, Now then IL It does not
prove satisfactory TO them simply be-
cause 1t reduces the sale and consump-
ton OF liquor 1t will prove the best
reason why il should be continued, or
at least why it should not be changed
because they do not like it.
CHECK ON OUTSIDE DEALERS.
Again, the argument based on the
assumption that outside dealers viii
send in their drummers and solicitors
either to repeat the evils OF the sales
in camp OF the past two years, or TO
ruin the trade Of the local dealers, re-
mains TO be demonstrated. Their soli-
citors can only take orders to be filed
in Honolulu and TO be paid for there
Their risks Of collection are much
greater than a local dealers would be-
This alone will tend TO limit the
amount of business they can expect to
do to an amount that may not pay
them 70 attempt 1t. They will have
TO do business strictly in compliance
with the law. for the local dealers
will be watching for any violation OF
law on their part as we'll as l wiIlF
The local dealers are under an agreed
ment not TO solicit in the camps or
elsewhere than at their own places OF
business. If they do, they are likely
to be detected and then they will either
have to give up their licenses and close
UP under their agreement. or know
that their licenses will not be renewed
next year.
SECRET SERVICE FUND.
I'm addition to the ordinary means
of getting at violations of the law and
of reaching offenders. the board has
voted me secret service fund OF $500
with which to secure evidence of vio-
lations Of the law.
$50 far the policy Of the board seems
to be working well. There Is very
much less public drunkenness, and
Generalization in the camps. Men
have to go for their liquor now instead
of having liquor follow them up. There
are seven places at which 1t can be
bought, hence there is not as much
temptation. For the time being. ae
least. the camps are not flooded with
the stun"

ton. They say the board is a Mis-
sionary Board. But it isn't. It is a
fair board. I am more responsible
than 1t for cutting out the retail IL
censes and issuing only the wholesale
licenses
. AN EXPERIMENT.
''Well, I think 1t will work out all
right" said J. K. Gandall who is one
of the seven licensees of Kauai. while
] am in the liquor business, do not
want the business to work a detri-
ment to the community, and am will
ing that there should be restrictions
on the business for the protection Of
the community.
But 1 do not know how this re-
striction on soliciting will work. 1t
will not prevent dealers in Honolulu
from coming in and soliciting trade
But they cannot deliver except at the
landing, so 1 don't know whether they
will do us any harm or not. OF course,
you might say why should we want to
push the business by soliciting But
the liquor business is like other BUSH
ness; 1t won't come to you. Dry
goods dealers have to display goods
and solicit sales. Still I am willing to
fbccept the restriction for the benefit
5of the community. If it works against
the local dealers in favor of outside
dealers, I suppose the board will
change the restriction for it is for the
benefit of the community and not for
the benefit of the outside dealers"

ANOTHER PLAN
THAT WAS PROPOSED

"All of the dealers had applied for
second-class saloon licenses" said w.
G. Smith. the License Inspector APP
pointed by the board, when the Nd
vertiser announced the opinion of the
Attorney General that saloons not only
could not sell anywhere but on the IL
censed premises, but could not deliver
anywhere but on the licensed premises
This made great difference to them.
The volume of business in the past has
been not alone what was sold at. the
saloon, but what was sold through the
camps. Saloons in the country are not
always in the most accessible places.
1t must be remembered that men in
the country must sometimes go two or
three miles to a saloon. When a man
has worked hard all day and is tired
he may not feel like going that far 1t
is true. if he does, he may not feel like
leaving right away after he has come,
and may remain longer and drink
more than he had any intention Of do
ing when he came. But he might not
come. And if the liquor dealers could
not deliver except on the licensed
premises, he had no way Of reaching
him. The sale of liquor through the
camps was gone.
THE ATTORNEY GENERALS
OPINION.
1.-THE liquor dealers had applied for
the retail license. that is the second
class saloon license, because under i
they could sell in any quantity and by
going into the camps, practically sell
ing anywhere. But when this opin-
ion of the Attorney General was pub
ished. holding that under saloon Ii
censes they could deliver only on the
licensed premises, they did not want
retail licenses then. but they applied
for wholesale licenses.
Under the wholesale licenses they
could deliver liquor anywhere. They
could sell it in any quantity, but ii
could not be consumed on the prem
ises. AS to this last restriction mang
of the dealers did not care. They
were willing to get rid Of that fea-
ture of the business. It ASSOCIATED
much Of the drunkenness from their
places of business. Because of this

A STRIKING CONTRAST.

GAS showing the striking contrast OF
the two systems, the first day that
the new wholesale licenses were is
sued there was an immense amount OF
drunkenness and debauehery in Ma
wiliwili. Portuguese, natives and Por-
to Ricans all went there. Though
they could not drink the liquor
on the premises where they bought it,
they could go just across the street
and drink it; and they did, and there
were numerous drunken, quarrelling,
fighting men, in consequence. We have
therefore already had the demonstra-
ton that where liquor can be bought
openly in any quantity drunkenness,
disorder, and fighting will follow even
when the liquor cannot be consumed
on the premises where it was bought.
OTHER PLACES.
But there were other opinions as to
the best means of handling the situa-
ton than that which I have just out
lined, the refusal to grant any licenses
at all, and the one adopted by the
board, Rev. J. NJ. Lydgate circulated
a petition which was signed by very
considerable number of the best peo-
pie in the island, asking that there be
but one license Issued in each of the
four districts, and that each licersee
be restricted in his operations to his
own district. This of course would
have made a monopoly of it, but 1t
would have centralized responsibility
for conditions right down 10 one man.
At the same time there would have
been a check on the tendency on his

Anti-PaSS Law
Cures Congress
Of WanderluSt

once more Congress is feeling the
pinch OF the anti-pass law, statute
that has done much to cure Congress
men OF the wanderlust. II is nearing
the time OF the Christmas holidays.
and the average member feels that he
ought 10 go out to his district, look over
his own political fences and see how
the boys" are feeling on the para
mount problem or who is TO succeed
Roosevelt; likewise, on the matter OF
currency legislation
But It costs a lot OF money 10 travel
all the way out 10 the DakOtas. to
Colorado. the remote Southwest or the
Pacific coast. paying car fare, sleeper
expenses. and cost OF meals.
II isn't like the good old days before
the rate law went into effect and nearly
every member OF House and Senate
had fine facilities for free transporta-
ton, both for himself and family. The
result is that many members OF Con-
gress will stay in Washington through
the holidays, or Will content themselves
with taking a trip to New York or
some place within easy reach.
II is true the member OF Congress Is
now paid $500 a year instead OF 5000.
The FIfty-ninth Congress recognized the
fact OF the increased cost OF living 20
this extent But this increase OF salary
doesn't make the average member any
more willing to pay railroad fare. He
had the habit, formed from years OF
practice, Of riding free. getting his fam
lily carried free. and of getting his goods
and Chattels to a considerable exten!
transported free.
Il goes against the grain now % have
10 pay for all these items.
Besides, the hotel keeper and apart
meEt house manager have made certain
arrangements for the separation OF the
extra $500 a year from the member Of
Congress. He has taken cOgniZance OF
the increased cost OF living, 100, and
up TO date has worked out his theories
on the subject about as effectively as
has the member OF Congress.
The result Of II all is 10 make the
member Of Congress slow to visit Wash
ington when Congress Is not in session
and slow TO take trips home when Con-
gress Is in session. Covertly. he
grumbles at the anti-pass legislation and
signs for the days Of the pass and tbs
free trip ticket. But he knows these
are gone forever, Too many State Leg
islatures have followed the lead OF Con-
gress in this matter, too many political
machines have been broken by reason
Of Il, and too much public sentiment
has been stirred 10 make II possible for
the anti-pass legislation to be wiped
out.
