Starving to Death" by the name OF

near Gulick avenue. This Is sad
news and u slur on the Grand Army
If true. This comrade belongs to
Geo. w. De Long Post, and in GOOD
standing. His name on our rolls Is
Fred. Sherman. Our comrades visit
him often. He has an income from
the old country of $500 per annum.
He does not even draw pension for
the reason he says that he has enough
to keep him.
He has not been feeling well for
a few months, but told us that he
needed no help. He chooses to live
alone, and | suppCse does not have
the best of cooking, that a man in
his condition and age should have.
! saw him on the street-car not more
than four days ago. AippoSe in
his feeble condition he fell or lay
down, and could not get up again.
We do not propose to let Grand Army
comrades who defended Old Glory on
the bloody field of battle starve in
Honolulu.
Respectfully,

LIQUOR DEALERS REQUESTS.

The strongest point in the presen-
tation made by the Liquor Dealers
Association before the Ways and
Means Committee of the Senate is the
request for an appeal to courts of
justice from arbitrary authority of
the Board Of Liquor Commissioners
exercised in an arbitrary manner.
The right to be heard has become
so fixed in the minds of the people in
their efforts to secure common JUS
tice that they naturally sympathize
with those striving to gain fair-play
IT made the victims of unjust despot-
ism.
The radical opponents of the liquor
3. traffic state that the present law will
be nulIiGcd II the right of appeal
from arbitrary authority is allowed.
The average citizen responds that
any law should be nullified that does
not grant a man u fair trial when he
4 is threatened with the destruction of
business that has been legalizcd. Is
thereby recognized as legitimate, and
which he has built up after years of
effort.
The weakness of the present law
when II Is gone into by men not
prompted by bitter prejudices Is that
1t places dealers in n legalized trade
under all the restraints of criminals
>, but does not grant them the privi-
lege every free country gives the
lowest criminal.
when the radicals say that COM
mon justice Is so weak that the peo-
pie cannot be protected against evil
doors in liquor traffic without placing
power over business life and death
in the hands of few men, the source
of the difficulty Is as much in the
4 system of justice as in the traffic to
be regulated.
Men who call for the right of ap'
peal from arbitrary acts OF public Of
flcers have always had strong case
since humanity began to raise It's
voice in protest against the wrongs
committed by despots. 1t is often
said that a benefcent despotism II
the most perfect form of government
This sentiment prevails more gener'
ally among a certain element in Ha'
wall than in any other place in the
United States. But the limitations OF
the despots are those of average hui
manity. The people have found il
safer for all concerned to rest theil
cause with the courts of justice rath
er than men acting in secret.
The liquor men go further In sug
costing changes for the present law
than it would be advisable for the
Legislature to follow. Their statement
however, is notable for its freedom
from n reciprocal note of bitterness
that has characterized the comment
of the so-called temperance radicals
There are incidents of the secret
history of the secret workings of the
local Liquor Commission that have
come to the knowledge of this papel
fully justifying the contention thai
modern despots can do outrageous
things. These facts so TO justify the
demand that men engaged in bus

ENCOURAGING OUTLOOK

DESPITE the prolonged discussion
j in Congress over the new Tariff
Bill, the condition OF business
has shown a distinct Improvement since
the introduction Of that bill For the
month OF March Dunn's Review noted
in the railways "a really notable recov-
cry from the depression OF 1908. the
gain in gross earnings being 1915 per
cent" For the first week in April bank
clearings were given as so per cent.
larger than last year, and SO per cent.
larger than in 1900. There are other
signs OF Improvement in the general
business fundamentally the return
ing tide Of immigration which, by the
middle Of last month reached an UNI
prccedented height. These immigrants.
says the New York Times, know why
they are coming, just as they know
why they went away The lack OF jobs
found its earliest reflection in the de-
parting idle hands Assuredly they are
not returning with the expectation oi
idleness." While il cannot be claimed
that full activity has been resumed in
all lines OF industries, il can be cheer
fully seen that a most marked and en-
cnuraging revival OF business condi-
tions is under way
