.PLEBISCITE RESULTS FOR
PRACTICAL PROHIBITION

Ordinarily, perhaps, whatever action
on the liquor traffic the people of Ha-
waii might take would be a matter of
comparatively slight interest to out
siders, says the Nashville American,
discussing the recent plebiscite and its
results. However, now that the figures
showing the exact vote of the Islands
on prohibition are received-coupled
with information concerning results on
the traffic outside of the failure to pro-
hibit-aR illustration of conditions is
found applying to many other parts of
the world. In Hawaii state of affairs
has prevailed, connected with the saloon
business, which has been disgrace to
the country and a menace to its insti-
tutions. AS an effectual method of put
ting a stop to all this, the effort was
made to put the principle of prohibition
into practice. The chief argument on
behalf of the prohibitionists was the
protection of the natives from the dire
effects of the great and growing habit
of drink.
The popular vote was more than
three to one against prohibition. At
the same time, reforms-to which sa-
loonists were forced to give their assent
in order to prevent the extinction of
their business-were effected. AS a
condition to the defeat of prohibition,
the liquor dealers, big and little, were
obliged to give allegiance to most sig
nifcant changes in the whole matter of
dealing in drink. A large number of
the worst places in the Territory"
have been closed by the prOprietors.
The salOonists have been obliged to
sign promises to abandon the sale of the
cheap and nasty" drinks which
wrought havoc upon mind and body of
the consumer. Dealers were forced to
take position, publicly, in favor of the
most rigid enforcement of the license
system, with all sorts of pains and pen
alties for failure to perform their part
of the contract implied in the defeat of
absolute prohibition.
The Hawaiian prohibitionists have
failed to secure a majority vote in
favor of their position. At the same
time, they have succeeded in bringing
about conditions which are a great i'm.
provement over those that have prevail.

CLEANING UP
SUGAR CROP
About Seventy Thousand Tons
Shipped on Matson
Vessels.

Seventy odd thousand tons of Castle
& Cooke sugars have been shipped out
of the Islands to the Coast refneries on
the Matson Navigation Company IS
steamers, and with shipment of about
thousand tons to be made on the
next trip of the Lurline to San Fran.
cisco and couple of hundred tons from
kohala, the season s output for the
Matson line will have been cleaned up.
The Wilhelmina took away the last
big shipment for the season, and for
the next three months the vessels will
have very little sugar to carry. The
Lurline on her next trip up will carry
another consignment of 5000 tons of
molasses, shipped in bulk, the product
of the Hawaiian Commercial and Sugar
Company of Maui The Lurline made
an experimental shipment last voyage
of the same amount. The molasses was
pumped into her vacant tanks. Before
that several hundred empty gasoline
drums were utilized as containers for
molasses, and this was also a success.
Heretofore, much of the molasses by
product of the plantations has gone to
waste, or was used TO some extent as
fuel.
The Lurline will also have about 12,.
600 cases of canned pineapples. The
canned pineapple shipments on all
steamers win be quite large for a few
months, the canning season being on
now in full blast.
After the Lurline returns to the
Coast she will be laid up one trip while
extensive alterations are made, the
! company's plans contemplating a large
| addition to the stateroom capacity and
the present small deck space will be
| extended so that the promenades aboard
the vessel will be as large as those
aboard the Wilhelmina.

New York Fight Gets Hotter as

OLD GUARD is sANGUlNE
While Roosevelt Partisans Claim
They win Control by a
Small Majority.

NEW YORK. September 21.-one
startling result of the primary elections
yesterday was the defeat of Viee-Presi-
dent Sherman in his own district. in
spite of which Timothy Woodruff pre-
diets that he will be elected as tenn
porary chairman of the State conven-

day next
Sherman will attend the convention
at the head of the delegation from the
First Oneida district, while Colonel
Roosevelt, who viii contest the election
and the control of the convention with
him, will come at the head of the Mas.

Yesterday was an exciting day in the
Empire State struggle between the
Rooseveltians and the Old Guard par
tizans.
Chairman Griscom, of the state CEN
tral committee, who is Roosevelt man,
claims $40 of the 1915 delegates to the
convention are for Roosevelt for tenn
porary chairman, against Vice President
sherman. Phis claim of a small margin
for victory is just about matched by
the other side, which claims $50 votes
for Vice President Sherman

SEATTLE WINS
POSTER PRIZE
Special Committee Selects Their
Design From the Entry
of Sound Artist.

Seattle wins the prize offered by the
Hawaii Promotion Committee for de-
sign for a floral parade poster for the
1917 celebration.
d. Howard Hitchcock, Ed Towse and
~. T. Warren, the committee, made
careful survey of the designs offered
and decided that Maring & Blake Is was
the most acceptable. This is a design
showing o girl in diaDhanous green
robe, a modified holoku effect, standing
beneath palm tree, and holding long
lei of leaves which festoons TO her
knees. 1t is a dainty poster effect, but
is not altogether Hawaiian in effect, as
only the faint tracing Of the palm tree
gives subtropical effect.
The committee, however, had little
encouragement from the other designs,
as some were too garish in coloring,
Others bore too much lettering and in
Others the contrasts in colors were too
slight to catch the public eye. Some
were too much like advertisements and
some did not meet the poster idea at all.
There was some hope that well ar
ranged design showing a surfboard
rider sweeping in on the crest of a
wave would be offered, but those of
ieIeu WcIe loo hsllcsS' ldchlnB energy
and action. The wash drawing which
appeared in the latest Illustrated Lon
don News, drawn from photos submit
ted by Alexander Hume Ford, it is
generally agreed among promotionists,
would have made an excellent poster.
Secretary Wood is pleased, however,
that Seattle gets the poster award, for
it may be an encouragement to Puget
Saunders to work up their proposed ex-
cursion to Honolulu next February
There is considerable talk in the North
west over the proposed excursion which
Mrs. Frances King Headlee, the pro-
motion committees representative at

Theodore V. Halsey, general agent of
the Pacific States Telephone Company,
will face his judges today on charges
of bribery, made against him over three
years ago in connection with the gen.

HACKDRlvER ROBBED
BY HIS PASSENGERS

A very pleasant experience last night
fell to the lot of a hackdriver named
Lum Sing, who came through it minus
his watch, his money and one shoe. The
pleasant part of it was enjoyed by an
alleged soldier and Portuguese boy.
If they hadn't handled him so roughly,
Lum Sing would probably have had
better time, but as it was it was half
hour before he could finally gasp out
in the police station that he had been
held up. Special Officers Apana and
Akui at oneeswent out ON the case.
Lum Sing drives hack number GA.
Last night a man, who he thinks is a
soldier but who was dressed in citizen s
clothes, and a Portuguese boy took his
hack on Hotel street and told him to
drive Eva. They went to Palama
where they turned up Peterson lane un-
til they were near the Asylum road.
His passengers then reached over and
Beizing him by the neck strangled him
until he was almost unconscious They
tore his watch from his chain, ransack-
ed his pockets (although he don't re-
member how much money he had) and
then took his shoe of TO hunt for more
cash
The description of the man tallies
with that of one who committed an ex-
aetly similar act at Kalihi a month ago.
After having been driven to the mauka
end Of Gulick avenue, he robbed the
driver OF thirty dollars.

Salt Lake Women Complain
of High Street Car Steps

three But, even so, 1t is felt that the
steps of the Salt Lake cars are rather
high. The first step is seventeen inches
above the pavement, the next step onto
the platform is ten inches higher, and
the step from the platform TO the car
floor is six inches more. In Chicago
cars there were but two steps, one from
the pavement to the step, and the other
from the step to the platform, the car
floor and the platform being on the
same level.
The height of the first step on to the
Salt Lake cars is little more than twice
the height of an ordinary step. From
the pavement to the floor of the car is
thirty-three inches, and this is mounted
in three steps, divided inequality, the
first step being much higher than is
convenient for most women or men.
Machinists of the street car company
say that the step from the pavement is
as low as can be had for the successful
operation Of the cars, and aver that the
local cars have steps as low as the cars
now being rebuilt for Chicago will have
The Chicago women carried their
fight to what they believed to be a sue
cessful end, but, as the new steps will
not be any lower than the ones on the
Salt Lake cars, II is likely they will
have another grievance when the re-
built cars put in an appearance.
