that MAINE PLAN and
HAWAII.

Another defense of the Maine
Prohibition" law has been publish
ed locally and IL could properly be
epitomized In the following Lam
guage:
The brand OF pi ohibition that
Maine enjoys is still satisfac-
tory to the people of that State.
II does not preve 1t the sale of
liquor; II does not prevent the
saloon; II does not do that which
the law declare, should be
done-does not pretend to do It;
and the people seem satisfied. al
though tremendous gains are
being made at each election by
the resubmisslon party.
Having been free TO admit that
the Pfohibltory law of Maine does
not prohibit either the sale of int TX
icating liquors or the saloon, the sup
pcrters of local Prohibition use It as
an argument in favor of a prohibi-
ton law for this Territory.
Apparently they want a miserable
farce enacted in this Territory under
the name of a Prohibition law, when
this Territory already has law
under which every saloon in the Is
lands could be closed and the sale
of liquor much more vigorously re-
stricted than is the case In the State
of Maine, II public opinion support
ed any such action.
Whether the present Prohibition
law OF Maine is beneficial to the
State as whole" J. matter for the
citizens of the State OF Maine to de-
termine. and there isn't much doubt
as TO the trend OF opinion in that
great commonwealth.
What the citizens of Hawaii have
to decide is not the troubles of the
State of Maine, but, taking that
State as sample of what Is pro-
posed for this Territory, they are to
declare whether they want to dupli-
cate II here.
These apo!ogists for the Maine
plan of Prohibition evade the issue
OF Prohibition not prohibiting, and
quote an interesting array of com
parative figures which show to their
satisfaction that Maine people have
grown and prospered under Prohibi-
ton. They might better have put
IL that Maine has advanced In spite
of Prohibition, but how poorly their
statistics prove anything OF value
for Hawaii may be demonstrated by
the figures relating to poverty.
We are told that the Census fig
ures OF 1900 show that there were
in the poorhouses OF Maine l.6 out
of every thousand. with New Hamp-
shire 3 and Connecticut 81 per
thousand"
The presumption Is that Prohibi,
tion has led to decline of poverty.
Let us hope that It has some good
qualities. but as against the poor.
houses of Prohibition Maine, the Ter
ritory of Hawaii, that has been under
high license for many years, has not
a single poor house within its Dor
ders. Hawaii and the Hawaiians
don't know what poorhouse means.
Following their own course of rea-
soning, the Prohibitionists ought to
see In this an argument for control
OF liquor traffic by license.

brand OF Prohibition says there is

Editor Event. -Dull etin'
Through your paper /, as a pri-
vate citizen, and in no wise inter
ested in the liquor traffic of these
Islands other than to see proper
and strict regulation Of the same,
wish to say a few words to the ma
tive Hawaiians; and wish to say
these few words in plain. everyday
language.
First, | would revive in the minds
Of the native Hawaiians the fact that
but few years ago law was enact
ed here that took away portion of
their liberty: in fact, II was worse
than that, inasmuch as It put in the
hands of another, not of their ma.
tlonality, the authority to prevent
them from exercising part of their
liberty as men. | refer to the law
which made II crime for any per-
son to sell liquor to a native Ha-
waiian.
That was the exact law with no
frills, and what was the result? Most
all Hawaiians can answer that ques-
tion better than | can. do know
that native Hawaiians distilled a
mixture that was far worse in its
effects than the vilest tanglefoot that
Is sold here oday. And all native
Hawaiians know 1t.
Then came the time when Hawaii
lowered under the protecting wing OF
the United States, the land of lib
erty, the land that giyes'equal' rights
10 all, the land that recognizes your
rights as man, no matter what the
color of your skin may be.
Among those rights of liberty that
came to you with annexation was
the right to eat or drink any food
or liquor for which this same govern
ment gave its approval, through H.
cense, for the sale or manufacture of.
Now comes a man, J.. G.. Woolley,
who would attempt to deprive the
native Hawaiians of a part of the
liberty they have enjoyed. Are they
willing To go Backward? Are they
willing to accept conditions even
worse than before annexation? Are
they willing to accept a certain con
dition that savors OF slavery again?
Anything that deprives man OF the
least iota of liberty In any way,
shape or form harkens back to slav-
cry. there is no middle ground.
Should Prohibition be placed on
Hawaii, the native Hawaiian will be
the sufferer. The haole will always

Papke's Romance.

middleweight boxer, Wednesday night
was married by the Rev Ethan Curtis
of the Niagara Square Congregational
church to Miss Edna E. Pulver of
Hamilton, Ont.
The marriage of Papke and Miss
Pulver is the elimination of romance.
Miss Pulver's family is wealthy and
had made arrangements two weeks ago
for Miss Pulver and her sister, with
mother and father, to sail for Europe
for a continental trip lasting three
months.
The young woman, however, had an
other plan, and when Papke drove up
to her door Wednesday in his racing
automobile she jumped in and few
hours later they were across the border
and a half hour later Miss Pulver was
Mrs. William Papke.
