PROHIBITION. .PhARlSEES.

Pharisees thanked God that they
were not rs other men.
Prohibltionists appear to he doing
the same thing, Judging from the
adulation heaped upon them by their
organ and the struggle at the same
time to consigu all who do not agree
with them to the sulphurous caul-
dron of selfish interest. ,.
Look upon this self-sacriflcing
crowd says the Prohibition organ.
See what we are giving up for the
benefit Of the dear people"
And the community, knowing the
crowd well. responds with good
natured smile.
AS nearly as can be made out
through the food of salt teams that
befogs the Prohibition issue as pre-.
sented by the morning Mother of
Blind Pigs. the Prohibitionists don't
want to talk about their platform
or principles; they don't want to
talk about the virtues Of Woolley and
Woolleyism; they don't want to
dwell upon the false promises they
are making to the Hawaiian and the
japanese and the European. No.
They prefer to discuss the selfish
ness and the alleged cussedress OF
the other fellow.
That's what the Pharisee has al
ways done, and the Prohibitionist OF
Hawaii seems to be holding true to
the character of his prototype.
But these side issues that the Pro-
hibition organ puts up to distract
attention from its own weaknesses
are not Of especial moment to the
people OF this Territory.
What the voters are to pass upon
is the proposed Prohibition law. The
question put up to them is whether
they will vote Eyes" and exchange
an efficient and effective law for a
farce and a delusion. or vote NO

character of Hawaiian citizenship

out Hawaii's problems in careful,

mighty few intelligent persons who

once dishonest In their statements

purest type.

TENNESSEE AND PROHIBITION.

The following editorial from the
Commercial Appeal of Memphis Of
May 10 has been handed to the B l.
letin for the information of the peo-
pie who think that Prohibition has
met with any measure of success in
the State of Tennessee:
In an address delivered before a
body of students recently at Jackson.
Mr. |. B. Tigrett discussed the infiu-
ence OF newspapers on law enforce
men in way that is most interest
ing.
If the position Mr., Tigrett took is
solid, then, indeed. tremendous is the
responsibility of the newspapers.
Mr.. Tigrett is man of affairs, of
high personal character and what he
has to say on any subject must com
mand respect,
Mr.. Tigrott said that tn of the
foremost opponents of the statewide
temperance measure were The Com
mercial Appeal and the Nashville
American.

When the prohibition law was
passed and applied to Shelby county,
The Commercial Appeal insisted that
the authorities should enforce 1t.
The city of Memphis at that time

had been friendly to the candidacy Of
Senator Carmack and had bitterly
opposed Patterson.

Mr.. McLean's response to Mr.. Van
Nalkenberg shows conclusively that
private interests have worked for
the extension OF the interstate COM
merce laws to the water transporta-
ton of Hawaii. Now, the commu-
nifty should not allow itself to be
made victim Of war between pri-
waite interests, especially when the
proposals involved in the clash are
radical departures from the usual
order of things throughout the coun-
try. Hawaii should go very slow In
approving special legislation, or any
legislation, for that matter, without
a careful and thorough investiga-
ton. Let the Interstate commerce
law extension wait until the commu.
nifty can learn where 1t will stand
under the new scheme. Let the
people do their own regulating and
then the private interests will do as
they should do-serve the commul
nifty.

ENEMIES OF HONOLULU

How much longer must the people
of this city be held at the mercy OF
the coterie of, officials who set their
ideas above the judgment and DELHI
crate conclusions of an overwhelm-
ing majority of our citizens usually
telligence?
How much longer is the construc-
tion of much needed Federal build
ing to be delayed and the progress
convenience OF public officers and the
public generally, to be retarded and
opposed?
The latest letter from Secretary
Mcclellan on the Federal building
site proves very conclusively that the
enemies of Honolulu are still at
work in Washington. They have
been given demonstration of where
they stand in the estimation of the
people of this city and they have
kept quiet locally beyond a few POM
pous boasts that their swelling con.
ceit could not control. But they are
obviously still at work in Washing
ton.
The letin agrees with
those who believe that the proposal
to extend the Federal building site
to Fort street is not made in good
faith. ~f-

Creston, March 9.-Brakeman wan
Bortz, Of the Cumberland branch, re-
lates an incident that occurred on the
Great Northern yesterday, between
Orient and Massena, that illustrates
the word ungratefulness to dot. An
elderly woman boarded the train at
Orient, and when she got off at her
destination, left her handbag lying IN
the seat in the car. 1T was found some
minutes later, after the train pulled
out. by the trainmen, and upon exam
nation was found to contain SI5, 4o4 IN
cash and notes. A telegram was at
once sent back to the woman, telling
her the purse had been found ana
would be brought back to her on the
return trip.
When the train arrived at Massena
in the afternoon the woman was wait
ing there to receive the handbag, and
upon its receipt turned and walked
indifferently away, without as much as
even thanking the brakeman for his
kindness and honesty, nor word about
the trouble of telegraphing.

FEVER DUE TO WATER.
Cause of Council Bluffs Epidemic
Definitely Traced.

Council Bluffs, March AN exhaus
tive report on the typhoid situation was
made by City Health Officer Charles
H Bower to the board of health. His
report tended to confirm statements
already made that the infection was
caused by impurities in the city water.
In his report DR.. Bower stated that
on March 1 there were fifty cases of
typhoid in the city. These patients
We're found in all parts of the city, and
forty one of them were using city wa

Omaha and one was from out of the
city, leaving at the lowest estimate
more than two-thirds Of the patients
users of city water.
Reports of the analysis of State
Chemist c. NJ. Kinney again affirmed
that the water was impure: that it
contained sewage, animal life, algae
and other substances, and that in the
judgment of the chemist the water was
unfit for use.
