THURSTON'S DEFENSE OF HIS
~ PLATFORM. !, q, l..

Using as a basis Sthe prohibition
platform written by himself. Lorrin
"A. Thurston defends his brand of pro-
hibition and Woolleyism. all of which
he wants to see applied to the Terri
tory OF Hawaii, Thurston now steps
into the shoes Of publicity that were
filled by John G. Woolley until he
had succeeded in revealing the hypo-
crisy and false basis upon which the
prohibitionists appear before the peo-
pie. Then woolley was hastily with
drawn. Thurston takes Woolley's
place and in the Thurston prohibition
organ proceeds to tell us the facts
about liquor which good citizens
agree upon"
Thurston has undoubtedly consult
ed all the good citizens" in the pro-
hibition ranks-they are all disinter-
ested men-and those who do not
agree with the certain facts pro-
mulgated ,by Thurston are. presum-
ably. associates OF knayes and drunk
ards.
Thurston proposes TO dispose OF the
whole question by conclusions based
upon such abtruse premises as he
is more liable to take a drink II he
can reach saloon by walking two
blocks, than II he had to walk Il
mile" and mo saloon and the man, as
a rule, will not think OF liquor, but

who suffer from daily attacks OF par
alysis under the operation OF the pres
ent liquor law. Thurston's sympa-
thies are broad and general as was
indicated when he asserted that he
would not hesitate to form an alliance
with the first guerrilla OF evil to
achieve his ends.
In his procession of premises and
conclusions Thurston carefully avoids
any of the real arguments that have
shown clearly and with finality the
essential evils of prohibitory law. lie
has not word for the practical re-
suits of prohibitory leglslation-he
simply asserts that the saloon is the
root of all evil and that law of sup
preston should be clamped upon the
people OF Hawaii.
Thurston asserts what is funda-
mentally false when he declares that
the difference between high license
and prohibition Is n difference In de-

ISpeciol Dispatch 10 The Call


STOCKTON, Nov. 27.-Deputy sheriff
Parker Hackett in an automobile de-
feated J. C. Mars flying an aeroplane
in a three mile race this afternoon
The race was the feature of the
three day aviation meet which closed
today Hackett, DR.. ]. P. Sargent of
Lodi and Elmer Miller drove the auto
mobiles. The autos got a little the
better of the start. Mars flew directly
over the racetrack about 300 feet above
the ground. The machines gained on
him on the eastern stretch of the track
but lost on the turns. Miller was in
the lead the first two laps, but Hackett
crossed the line first in the final lap, a
short distance ahead of the air craft.
Hackett drove a Chalmers 80 and his
time was 1888.
Mars made two other flights, one of
which was a tryout. His third and final
flight was spectacular In making his
circular dip he coursed above the track
and when in front of the crowd sud
denly dived toward the ground, and
when it seemed though he would
strike the earth shot up and made the
curve at sharp angle.
Sisson won the two motorcycle races.
He made the 10 miles In Is minutes
and so seconds and three miles in 4:2o.
