Hand in hand with It's war upon in
temperance is the war waged by the
Woman's Christian Temperance union
against the twin evil of the liquor
habit-the use of tobacco in any form.
Through the department of anti-nar-
cotics the first aim is to educate, to
instill into the minds of the young the
knowledge of the injury done by to-
bacco and to teach adults the effects
of tobacco, opium and other narcotics,
not only upon the parent, but the Off
spring; also to secure laws prohibiting
the sale of all narcotics, including to-
bacco in all it's forms.
For the purpose of enlightening those
who think cigarette smoking harmless
the testimony of some public educators
and business men is offered for consid-
Grafton. In a paper on this subject by
Mrs. Rosetta B. Hastings she says;
Tobacco contains several poisons, of
which nicotine, the most active, is the
deadliest. Nicotine is, in fact, one of
the most powerful of known poisons.
It's fatal effect on the human system
is retarded by the natural effort of the
various organs of the body to rid the
system of poisonous matter. This
prodigal use of vitality weakens the
system and shortens the life of the to-
bacco user.
cigarettes are often made of the
cigar stumps picked from the street.
Cigarette smoking is the most harm
full use of tobacco. Why? Because
boys begin younger to smoke cigar
cites than the pipe or the cigar. Even
when rolled from common smoking to-
bacco cigarettes are more injurious
than cigars. Why? Chiefly because
boys soon learn to inhale the poisonous
smoke into the lungs, producing an
irritation of the delicate membranes of
the mouth, air passages and lungs,
making them easy prey to disease.
"The blood while passing through the
lungs absorbs the carbon monoXide gas
which is generated in the burning of
the cigarette and inhaled with the
smoke. This poison lessons the red
corpuscles in the blood, thus weaken
ing the organs of the entire body and
stunting growth. If smoke from the
cigar or the pipe were inhaled 1t would
prove more injurious because it is
stronger.
cigarettes benumb the nerves, fire.
quently causing paralysis. They weak
en- the heart and cause thousands of
deaths from heart disease. Army re-
cruiting officers affirm that a large
per cent of the young men who fail to
pass the examinations fail because of
weak hearts caused by smoking Gig
arettes. Cigarettes injure the brain.
Teachers report that cigarette smokers
fall behind their classes and become
idle, dull and often untruthful."
Superintendent Ogg of Kokomo, Ind,
after a systematic grading, found that
the occasional users of cigarettes were
a year and the regular users two years
behind those who did not smoke. The
department of the smokers was also
found to be lowered and their charac-
ter unreliable, while they dropped out
of school earlier and in larger num-
bers than non-smokers.
Professor Lord reported similar care
full observations in one of the schools
of New York. In department, atten-
ton, memory, morals and mental and
physical condition the smokers ranked
far below the other pupils of the same
age.

PASTOR SERMONEES ON
CONDEMNATION SUBJECT
Minister Says Man Following
Souls High Leading viii
Escape Perdition

What Must 1 Do to Be Damned?"
was the subject of the address by
Reynold E. Blight, minister of the Los
Angeles Fellowship, at Blanchard hall
yesterday morning. He said, in part:
"This subject will be recognized at
once as an inversion of the familiar
revival text, What must 1 do to be
saved?' I contend that my wording of
the subject is more in accord with
scripture, the teachings of Jesus, hu-
man experience and scientific truth.
1.-The old question found it's signifi-
canoe and its terror from the assump-
ton that man was lost, that he was
utterly depraved, that he was inherently
vile and incapable of any good thing,
that the thoughts of his heart We're
evil continually and that he was justly
doomed to an eternity of torment in
unquenchable flames-all of which
cheerful doctrines were grouped under
the theological phrase, the fall of
man. This is the fundamental doc
trine Of orthodox theology, the key
stone of the dogmatic arch. But as
Los Angeles herald., 1910-09-26
The Number Is Limited

we search the scriptures we find that
no such doctrine is taught directly and
can be maintained only by fanciful
exegesis. In the recorded words of
Jesus we look for it in vain. Human
experience has always given this
atrocious dogma the lie. The demon
strations of modern science have made
it ridiculou ous and placed 1t among the
exploded superstitions of the ignorant
past.
Science reveals man, not as a
y Jrthless worm, or sin-cursed
wretch, or rebel against the authority
and majesty of cod, but as the aspir-
ing climax of evolution, the potential
master of the universe, holding with
in himself limitless possibilities, God
in the chrysalis.
MANS true nature is essentially
goodness. purity, self-sacrifice, love.
Condemnation, damnation, comes from
actions and motives that violate or go
contrary to the true nature of man.
Under the fallacious teachings of q
pessimistic theology he has been led
to believe that he was naturally bad
and could rise to a life of purity and
uprightness only bv a miracle. He has
come to know that when he follows
the highest leadings of his soul, the
motive law of his being, he lives
noble, morally beautiful life as natur-
ally and as easily as the roses bloom
or the stars shine. 1t is his real nature
blossoming. AS Stevenson so we'll says:
we are not damned for doing wrong;
we are damned for not doing right

WARSH|PS HERE
IN OCTOBER
Second Division of the Pacific
Fleet to Hold Maneuvers in
Hawaiian Waters.
NAVAL GUNS MAY BE FIRED
War and Navy Departments May
Test the Diamond Head
Fire Control.

The second division of the Pacific
fleet IS due here the latter part of De-
cember on a practise cruise and to hold
maneuvers off the Maui coast, with
probably some target practise.
The warsnips comprising the second
division are the West Virginia, South
Dakota, Colorado and Maryland, ships
which have been held together as a
division almost since the time they We're
assigned as part of the Pacific fleet.
It is likely that the warships will re-
main in Hawaiian waters for six or
eight weeks The likelihood of target
practise this fall off Lahaina is inter
esting, as it will be the first time the
navy department has permitted the YES
sells to engage in gun firing here.
There is also a rumor from Washing
ton that the navy and war departments
will cooperate in series of maneuvers
to determine the prao ticability of the
newly installed fire control at Diamond
Head. from which high station the fire
of all the seacoast and mortar guns
viii be directed at an approaching fleet.
The mortar guns at Fort Ruger, on the
mauka slope of Diamond Head, have
not been used with projectiles. but the
fire control for them is installed, new
plates are being fitted in under three
of the mortars, the original cast iron
plates having cracked when the guns
were first fired. and a battery of search
lights is being fitted in the galleries
which open out on the face of Diamond
Head back of the lighthouse.
While Captain Timberlake, command
ing the mortar fort, stated some time
ago that the war department did not
then contemplate any mortar practise
this fall. it is rumored that actual firing
will be under way in month.

LANAI MAY BE
MODEL ISLAND
Plan of the Company includes
an Offer of Free Thirty-Acre
Homesteads.
LAND FOR AMERICAN FARMER
Sugar Beets to Be Cultivated on
a Cooperation Basis on
Part of the Land.
LAND FOR AMERICAN FARMER

Lanai Island may yet become the
model island in the whole Pacific Ocean
for upon it's broad acres, now controlled
by the Lanai Company, hundreds of
families are to be installed on free
homesteads of thirty acres for each
family. If the plans OF the company
are carried through.
The beet sugar expert who came from
Sallna, California;. few weeks ago,
has been engaged in experimenting on
the island and reports which reached
Honolulu yesterday are that the beet
sugar industry will be a profitable one
on Lanai, if the average rainfall con-
tlnues to be the average.
While the expert has not finished his
work, being now engaged in blowing,
planting and experimenting in many
ways, the company may now unfold its
greater plans for development. The
proposition outlined is to offer home
,steads to American families, the home
stealing conditions being that at least
two-thlrds of the thirty acres given be
planted in beets, or whatever else the
company may decide upon, the beets
being raised and sold on a cooperative
plan, which will be beneficial to both
the company and farmers. The remain
ing onethird of the homestead NAV be
devoted to whatever uses the dwellers
thereon wish.
1t is the opinion of the members of
the company that each homesteader or
head of family has an opportunity to
accumulate a competence while en-
gagged with the company in producing
sugar beets, while at the end of GER
tain term Of years, if all conditions
have been carried out, the homestead
will be conveyed to the dweller in fee
simple
There are in the neighborhood of
$4,000 acres which can be devoted to
this purpose. while there are tens of
thousands of additional acres for ranch
ing, sheep grazing, and the many other
projects the company is starting to de-
yelop.
Lanai is owned by company. The
lands are privately owned and the com
pany viii have exceptional opportuni-
ties to carry on a homestead PROPOSE

HOME RULERS
ENDORSE LANE
Signify Approval of Republican
County Ticket Except the
Supervisors.

The entire county ticket of the Re
publican party, with the exception of
the supervisors, was endorsed yesterday
by the county committee of the Home
Rule party.
The selection of nominees or candi-
dates devolves upon the committee by
the rule of the organization. It was
decided in convention, however, that
the, committee endorse the Republican
nominees The party S ticket now
sta ,tr: Delegate to congress, Charles
Noisa {H. RI; mayor, John Lane
clerk. Z. zkalauokalani (Rep.l; auditor,
lanes Bieknell (Rep.); treasurer, r. W.
Single kRep.);, attorney, John Cath
cart Rep, and all the deputy sheriffs
in the county on the Republican ticket.
The committee has selected its own
candidates for board Of supervisors, all
Hawaiians.
For senators, D. Kalauokalani. ST.,
VIM. Mossman, Jr., and Peter keala-
kaihonua ('' Leader of the World') are
for the long term, and "Oily Bill'
White for the short term.
The county platform demands that
district court judges be elected, and
that licenses be differently arranged or
regulated, so that firms doing a big
business, like Hackfeld s, for example,
should pay a higher fee than the small
commercial houses. The platform on
which the delegate to congress nominee,
Charles Motley, is to make his cam
paign was endorsed. This platform ap-
proves a demand for statehood; an s IL
cent duty on coffee; $5,000.000 from the
federal government for the development
of homesteads, 10 come from customs
dues collected in the Territory; $1,000
600 for belt roads all over the Islands,
on the ground that Hawawii being a
Territory. the roads are vested in the
federal government; and 100000 IS
wanted to buy up fishery rights. All
moneys collected in accordance with
law passed by the last legislature, in
which a special income tax is collected
for conservation and immigration pur-
poses, the Home Rulers want divided
as follows: Schools, one-fouIth; con
servation. ne-fourth; roads, one half.
A campaign is to be conducted
against outside laborers, on the ground
that imported Europeans, brought in at
territorial expense, do not remain here,
but 90 elsewhere: whereas, iaborers like
the Fiipinos and Porto Ricans, from
countries controlled by the United
States. remain here and do not have
to lie assisted in coming.

EVACUATION is DEMANDED

BRUSSELS, September 25.-At the
meeting yesterday in this city of the
national Egyptian congress a resolution
was adopted to the effect that the oc-
eupation Of Egypt by the English
forces was not according to the legal
understanding between nations. The
resolution is in the nature of a demand
that the British at once evacuate the
lands under Egyptian jurisdiction, also
calling for restoration Of the consti-
tuition Of 1881.
From 1879 to 1883 two controllers
general, appointed by France and Eng
land, had considerable power in the di-
rection of affairs of the country. In
the summer Of 1882, in consequence of
a military rebellion, England inter
vened, subdued the rising and restored
the authority of the Khedive, in which
intervention England was not joined
by France
As a result the Khedive on January
Is, 1888, signed decree abolishing the
joint control of England and France.
In the place of the control above re-
ferred to, the Khedive, on the recon-
mendation of England, appointed an
English financial adviser without whose
concurrence no financial decision can
be taken.

LINKS MONEY
CARRIED MAUI
His Program Adopted by Demo-
cratic Convention, but Move
to Endorse Motley Made.
(Mail Special to The Advertiser.)

(Mail Special to The Adyertiser.)
WAILUKU. September 23.-The final
action OF the Democratic convention
yesterday was the adoption of resolu-
ton patching up the broken places in
the fusion ticket
A. B. Naone introduced the reselu-
ton endorsing c. L. Kookoo for sena,
tor, Nelson kaloa, county supervisor for
Makawao and John Kamanuwai, county
supervisor for Hama.
The anti-prog ramists vigorously OBJ
iected and loosed a flood of oratory
against the fusion resolution.
Nelson kaloa objected strongly
against fusing with Home Rulers, al,
though he himself had received the
nomination from the Home Rule con
vention, but il was an unsoughtf for
compliment
1t is said Nelson Kaloa had promised
to stand aside and to let the Home
Rule and Democratic vote of the Ma
kawao district 90 to Ex-Judge Charles
Copp, who is running for the office of
county supervisor as an independent.
This is the most rational explanation
Of Nelson Kaloa S conduct in refusing
the fusion nomination.
Geo. Kaonohi vigorously seconded
kaloa s objections, but for an entirely
different reason. He and his Ulupa-
Iakua following did not want to vote
for boy like Kaloa. He wanted
to vote for a good man.
After the motion to adopt the reso-
luton had carried. Nelson Kaloa moved
that the convention complete the fusion
program by impartially ratifying the
nomination of l.. L. McCandless to-
gether with that of Charles Motley.
This struck the convention as some
thing funny and everybody laughed
1t is said the program carried through
including the plan to fuse with the
Home Rulers on the legislative and
county tickets had the approval of
Link MeCandless, and that without
such fusion no Democratic money will
be spent on the campaign in this coun-
tv. 1t is also whispered about that
$4,000 of Link S money viii be used
for the Democratic campaign on Maui.
