4 the meeting Of the bar association
Yesterday afternoon the following mo-
tion. presented by Judge Wilder, was
passed;
VT Is the sense of the bar associa-
ion that il protests against the passage

BY the Organic Act
The following resolution presented
BY ". R. Castle, could not be voted
upon as before a second could be of
fered the previous question was moved
10 take up the Wilder motion:
Whereas, Certain bills now before
the congress of the United States pro
pose to establish total prohibition of
the liquor traffic in the Territory of
Hawai-. and it is not believed that pub
lie sentiment in this Territory is ready
for total prohibition, and that under
sgeh circumstances total prohibition
cannot be made effective even by the
United States government; and
Whereas We believe that conditions
are such in regard to the traffic IN
liquor, more particularly as applicable
to the sailors and soldiers Of the Uni
ted States, that there is serious danger
Of Interference by the United States
government with the entire govern,
ge1t Of this Territory. in which case
The local government will be entirely
destroyed; and
Whereas, If control of the liquor
traffic We're assumed by the United
States government, thus removing the
question entirely from the arena Of
local politics, it would result in such
improved conditions that any further
interference with the general local GOV
eminent Will not take place: therefore
Resolved by the Bar Association OF

tahe no further action with refereuc,
