abrogation of laws they deemed to

In pointing out that the United

Judge Woodruff took occasion to say
that foreigners who held different

domestic morality must be taught to
respect the laws of this country in
that regard.
Secrecy in regard to all their de-

HONOLULU ANTLsALooN APPEALED TO PUT STOP
TO THE NEFARIoUs BUSINESS AUTHORITIES FAIL TO ACT

HILO, October 5.-The Tribune
says:
"They are making swipes from one
end of Kona district to the other, and
it is the rum of the Hawaiian popu-
Iation."
This statement was made last week
by Inspector Walter Doyle of the In
ternal Revenue Department, who re-
Gently arrived in Hilo from trip to
the other side of the island.
'They are making it both in North
and South Kona, but particularly in
the former district, and they are do
ing it on large SCALE" continued
Doyle "Of course had heard be-
fore / arrived in Kona that there was
considerable swipes making going on
there, but 1 had no idea of its being
nearly as bad as it was.
1T is principally the Japanese who
are making the stuff but they do not
appear to be drinking much of it them
selves. Presumably they know bet
ter. However, they sell the product
to the Hawaiians, and swipes is now
the most popular beverage among these
people; as matter of fact. they hardly
drink any other kind of liquor. 1t is
being sold generally at the rate OF
fifty cents a gallon, and, OF course,
the saloon men cannot begin to COM
pete with booze at the price. 1t is
doing the holders of regular licenses a
great deal of harm, and l heard that
one man who had a license had stated
that he woulu give up his regular
licensed business and embark in the
Illicit traffic, as that would be the
only way in which he could make a
living in the liquor business.
Now this is not a secret or a dis
covery that l am telling you. The
fact that swipes is being made and
sold from end of Kona district to the
other is we'll known to everybody

The court adjourned until 10 o'clock
Thursday morning.
Much of the charge is devoted to a
statement of the function, duties,
powers and obligations of the grand
Jury, differing only in language from
the like deliverances of previous oc-
cupants of the Federal bench here.
One thing that Judge Woodruff
emphasized was that the grand jur-
-ors must not avoid their part in en-
forcing any law that they might
think was oppressive or unjust. The

there. The Japanese make it out OF
potatoes, bran, hops and other stuff,
and sometimes they use the time
honored trick and throw a bit of am
monia in the mess to hasten the fer
mentation. The result is concoc-
tion which is pretty near rank poison,
and the Hawaiians, who are the great
est consumers thereof, are already be-
ginning to show the effects.
Apparently nothing is being done
by the authorities to stop it. The
decent people of Kona are complaining
over the situation, and | understand
that Mr. Baker, a clergyman in the
district, has written to the Anti-Saloon
League in Honolulu for assistance
The police authorities are doing moth
ing, and it is impossible that they can
be ignorant of the fact that the liquor
law is being fragrantly violated all
around them, for it is an open secret
all over Kona, and no one can help
but see it. I asked one saloon keeper,
the holder of a regular license, who
was complaining at the way his busi-
ness was being ruined by these illicit
manufacturers and sellers, why he did
not ask the police to give him the
protection which his license entitled
him to- He answered me that he
had complained to the police author
tiles, and they had told him that it
was none of their business 1t is re-
ported that some of the police are di-
rectly or indirectly interested in the
business, and it would almost appear
as if that were the case.
Now I have given you the facts as
myself found them when | was in
Kona a short time ago, and you can
use every bit of it. AS a matter OF
fact, you cannot made it too strong.

business stamped out, and it was about
time that something were done"

hours this morning to notify Mayor
Fern of the fact that fellow Japanese
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1909-10-11


on Waimanalo plantation had been
beaten by seven other Japanese.
The servant came to Fern for the
reason that he had seen the Mayor
visiting the plantation at one time and
was informed that the Mayor was the
chief man of the City and County of
Honolulu, therefore believing him to
be the right party to whom should be
present the wrongs of the people.
The messengers had to hurry, for
he was obliged to be back in Wanna
nalo in time to attend to his household
duties this morning.
1t was at first reported that the man
whao had been beaten was the Japanese
contractor VINO was done up during
the strike and that this time he was
given a drubbing on account of the
five Japanese being sent to Jail for
Iassaulting him. But the fact is that he
is a different Japanese and that the
assault of yesterday was not serious.
He was hit in the face with a lantern
and otherwise bruised and battered.
He managed to hold on to a couple of
his assailants until the plantation pet
pie interfered and arrested the two he
had hold of. Their cases'will be tried
tomorrow morning in Kaneohe. They
are out under bonds.
