The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1909-01-20

Asking that the public lands Of the
Kingdom of Hawaii be withheld from
white men and foreigners, a petition,
dated June II, 1845, and signed by
over three hundred Hawaiians, has been
recently translated in the office of
Arehivist Lydeeker. The document is
addressed to King Kamehameha III.
and the Legislature, and in it an appeal
is made to the King to tend to the
work of the government himself, and
not to depend upon foreign officials for
any length of time.
The petition in full is as follows:
Kailua, june II, 1S45.
To His Majesty Kamehameha III. and
the Legislature,
Greeting: The following are the
things which we wish to petition to
the Legislature of the Hawaiian King
dom: We have heard the expressions
made by Judd to sell the lands TO the
foreigners and the prices of the same,
anu dlbO IlddlIIIO IuSdS " 1edSS Inc
lands to the people
The things we think proper, if the
mobiles agree with US are these:
You chiefs must not sell the lands to
the white men nor to the foreigners.
The selling of lands to outsiders is not
wise course, the lands being a source
of benefit to the government, the throne
and the Hawaiian people. If you wish
to sell or lease the lands you should
sell or lease them to your own people.
By so doing the lands will remain as
your own and you will continue to
reign over the Hawaiian people and
the country and everything in Hawaii
will not be taken away.
The following is the second reason
of our petition to you chiefs of the ma
tion-the granting of citizenship to
foreigners by oath.
We object to this practice of the
government in this respect, the grant
ing of rights of citizenship to foreign
ers, as being improper in our opinion.
The dangers we wish to set before
you are these: If the chiefs are t.
open this door of the government a.
an entrance way for the foreigners t.
come into Hawaii, then you will Sc,
the Hawaiian people going from place
to place in this world like flies. The,

It is generally understood by Sun
day-school teachers, that their first
duty to their classes is to teach the
Scriptures. But large number have
not yet asked themselves what the
Scriptures teach about Temperance.
They know, perhaps, some of the Oft
quoted texts, as "Look not upon the
wine," etc., but will they give even
such texts their full weight and i'm
portance, unless they take in the
spirit Of such passages as these:
"You: bodies are the temples of the
Holy Ghost which is in you," 1.-THE
pure in heart shall Sc God?'
Is the body, stepped in alcohol and
nicotine, pure? Is it fit dwelling
place for the Holy Spirit? Is it
ready to have Christ and the Father
come in and sup with the tenant ?

and happiness hereafter. You have
reason to believe that the use of al
cohol and tobacco will be most seri-
Gus hindrances to them in their ad-
vancement for this life and for the
next. Have you ever warned them
Of this danger and sought to guard
them against it?
No danger? [ thought so once. l
looked into the fair young faces IN
my own class: [ looked around upon
the healthy and happy boys on the
other side, and | saw no sign OF the
blight that should come upon them.
Yet the blight came. I had the NOR
tifcation Of seeing the cheeks OF one
Of my own pets coarsened into those
Of a beer-drinker (begun incidentally,
Of course), and the sons OF two OF
ticers in the school became sots!
How many others were led away
by these enemies to all purity and
pietv. I do not know; but shall never
forget that no teaching that they re-
ceiver in that Sunday-school, so far
as T know, specifically warned them
Of this danger. No, I did not see. the
danger then, but having seen the out
come, I beg to warn you before it IS
too late and save you from like NOR
tifcation and your scholars from a
like disaster.
Exceptional cases? Oh. no! All the
sad drinkers we're fair young children
once, and a large proportion of them,
probably more than half in this coun-
try, have been Sunday-school children
at some time. How many Of them do
YOU suppose received any special Tenn
perance teaching, judging from your
own observation and experience? l
do not mean simply how many have
heard Temperance "pieces" and
songs. but how many were taught the
nature and the danger of alcoholic
liquors and shown how and why to
avoid them?
Danger! Oh, yes, there is danger
20 them all! Chicago reports 10000
juvenile tipplers, and $4,000 of them
are or have been in the Sunday school.
Statistics from jails andpri sons show
that most of the prisoners came there
through drink, and large proper
tion Of them have been in Sunday
school. Then society takes hold Of
these poor wretches and tries to re-
form and save them, when it would
have been so much easier and so much
better every way if that teaching had
been given before they went so sadly
astray.
And then, We should not rest salts
fed with merely those we teach; we
should send them forth so earnest and
so charged with the truth, that they
become burning and shining lights
to others. What a matter Of rejoicing
it would be to you, my dear Sunday
school teacher, in some future day,
of you could look back over the chill
dren that have been from time to
time entrusted to your care, and see
them all safe from this destroyer OF
all good, and some Of them devoting
their God-given powers to saving
others! And now, dear teacher, shall
the good you do descend thus from
generation to generation, and break
in waves of living light on the far
thest shores Of time, or shall your
neglect echo forever from the groans
of lost souls through the dark cav
erns of despair?

DIR. Wiey's Crusade.

The American Wine Growers Association is
heartily In accord the stand taken by Dr. Har-
Vey W. Wiley, Of the Department Of Agriculture. in
regard to adulterated wines. This said yester-
day by George L. Dewey. OF No. 1873 Fulton street
vice-president of the association
according to Mr.. Dewey. the only way to make
popular American wine is to make It pure. It is
fair 10 all dealers then. while at present, when
there is a great deal of adulteration, Mr. Dewey
says the man who sells water and sugar and coal
tar dyes for the same price the man who sells
pure wine makes big profit with very little
pense. Mr.. Dewey said
The American Wine Growers Association has
always been in accord with the purifying fight DIR.
Wiley has been conducting. 1t is anxious to have
standard for American wine. And standard
wine means much for a country. II lake water.
sugar. coal tar dyes and acids put on the mar
ket as wines. the sixty thousand
of grapes in New York State alone may as we'll
be ploughed up and the land used for something

ing experiments at it's wine cellars in Sandusxy
Ohio. under the supervision OF Professor William
Atwood All wine dealers interested in them,
for the wine from grapes grown all the country
will be analysed. II the department has been able
TO have the contents of foodstuffs pasted the
outside OF bottles boxes containing them. why
not have the ingredients OF wine label so II
can be read? Then II a man chooses to buy colored
water instead Of wine he do So"
When asked about the dilution Of wine Mr..
Dewey said:
"If wine is 20 be diluted at ALL It should be done
so by the man who drinks II and not by the man
who makes IL. To sell diluted wine for pure wine
is common offence. All wine should be pure
grape Juice. and then II the drinker desires 70
weaken H. to get fluid and less wine. It is his
business.
''Dr. Wiley has been making a hard fight 20 puri-
fy foods, and he has met with opposition
than any other man in the government employ. But
he is going 10 prevail. The only reason he could
withstand the opposing influence OF many big
interests was through the confidence and determine

tinent recently. There they don't treat or stand
up and swallow liquor down. They enjoy pure wine

ers throughout the whole country would profit by
a rigid enforcement Of a law compelling wine max

DOESN'T LIKE PUBLICITY.
La1cyer Says Wrong Impression OF
Bridge Profits Might Result.

William NJ. Coleman counsel for the Bridge
Operating Company. told Milo r. Matbe. Public
Service Commissioner. yesterday afternoon that he
old not want TO put in evidence the figures Of the
annual profits made by that company in the opera
ton Of local cars the Williamsburg Bridge.
While he did not refuse he asked the Commits
sioner 10 release him from the obligation of putting
the figures in evidence, for fear they might become
public property. Commissioner Maltbie adjourned
the hearing until Thursday afternoon.
Il want to be relieved from putting in those dg-
ures." said Mr.. Coleman. They would seem 20
show that bridge operation is very profitable. The
Bridge Operating Company is able TO show large
profits because IL is able 10 purchase power at
low cost. and because its administration expenses
are small If the company was an independent one
and had those expenses to meet the profits would
not be so large.
1t quite apparent to the officials OF the Brook
lyn and Manhattan companies that great deal OF
money is being lost in the operation of through
cars The Metropolitan receivers have gravely con-
sidered. on account of this expense the taking off
OF the through cars which operated the
north tracks Of the Williamsburg Bridge. 1t is
question if the whole bridge operation does not
mean that more money is being lost the opera
ton OF the through than is made by the local
car service. our best impression is that We arc
losing money
Now. II the figures of profit the local cars
made public. II will be half truth at best.
The profits which VIII be shown by the local figures
will be seized by the newspap with the attend
ant publicity which we feel would be unfair 10
We would not want 10 put in the figures OF local
profits unless able put in at the time
figures showing what is lost on the through bridge
operation. We do go the extent OF
making that investigation. which would be costly.
and ask therefore 10 be relieved from furnish
ing the figures"
II recently that Receiver Whitridge was
paying the Metropolitan Street Railway 10 cents
for each OF HIS Grand line run across
