A WORD IN TIME.

Gideons will place 5000 bibles in
the hotels of Washington during the
inaugural ceremonies.
We sincerely hope that the Gary
democrats don't do like they did at
Baltimore-grab convention tickets
by the wholesale-but that they will
take only enough of the good books
as their needs require. No use bring
ing back $500 testaments just be-
cause it doesn't cost any more to haul
them in the special Pullman.

BY JAMES A. EDCERTON

FOR TME LEAST OF THESE
There is 4 Characteristic incident ct
President Lincoln told by a gentiemen
who attended one Of his receptions.
This occurred. l think. in 1854; at any
rate. after the Issuance Of the emaAci-
patton PROCLAMATION.
While the senators. generals and eth
er white folks OF quality passed in
many negroes hung about outside tho
White House watching the spectacle.
It was not until the long line was
nearly at an end that they timidiy be-
gan to edge toward the door. They
were dressed IN all sorts Of outlandish
costume. some in rags. others In bright
co!ors.
Lincoln was tired from the long or
deal Of handshaking. but his face Inn
mediatay lighted up on seeing thess
mstley admirers still hanging back ~
though uncertain Of their reception
His hearty greetings dispeiled all
doubts, and then ensued scene baf.

him like children, shouting blessings

hgious fervor. Among the CALCULATIONS
could be distinguished over and ever
again the cry Of God bless Massa Lin.

As tho gentleman left the Whita
House he said he heard fast young men
cursing the president for receiving
these people. but In his own heart
echoed and re-echoed their cry OF "God

A PLEA FOR CONSISTENCY AND
IMPARTIAIITY

Editor Honolulu Star-Rull etin,
Sir:-I wish to discuss some fea-
lures of the plan now before the legis-
lature to repeal the Sunday closing of
barber shops:
The states and the churches both
have ignored and repudiated this noble
and royal principle. Should the pres
ent legislative body of this territory
be led by such primitive American
principle CONSISTENCY, the religious
act entitled revised laws of Hawaii,
1906, Violating the Sabbath" would
be repealed Our past legislative bod
ed to them, restricted by the constitu-
les ignorantly, despotically or other
wise usurped the civil power delegat-
ton, the supreme law of this great re-
public Injustice and Partially has
been sanctioned and met by our courts
to residents under the banner of Stars
and Stripes; the emblem of Liberty
and justice. II.
This, an American principle, is seen
and felt in Honolulu and should be
ratified by our legislative body in SEES
sion. In matters of natural rights the
majority should not rule. Fortunately,
the supreme power of the government
allows and protects every resident in
the use of his tongue, mind time, pro-
perry, and every available means in
any way that he may consider the best
for his pursuit of happiness SO long
as his fellow-men's rights are not in
fringed. l. wish that this legislative
body of Hawaii would sense their duty
and trust as did the Congress and
house of representatives when pursued
by religionists or despotics for Sunday
legislation in 1929 and 1880. The SEN
timents of these noblemen were: The
proper object of government is to pro-
tect all persons in the enjoyment of
their religions as well as civil rights,
and not to determine for any. whether
they shall esteem one day above an
other, or esteem all days alike holy"
"The committee can discover no
principle on which the claims of one
tthe conscientious observer of the first
day. should be more respected than
those of the other-the Jew and the
Sabbatarian) less it be admitted
that the conscienceS of the minority
are less sacred than those of the ma
jority." ..... ="

4 WOMA: SPEAKS FOR THE
IRWIN BILL

March 9th. 1913.
Editor Honolulu Star Bulletin,
Sir:-Will you allow a stranger who
is enjoying the restful beauty of your
delightful city TO take up a short space
in the up-to-date columns of your live
paler? ...-. -.
For many years have been deeply
interested in all that concerned the
civic welfare of my own city, and
have been reading with keen interest
the different bills presented TO your
legislatorsLa great many local, but
one that is unlimited in its vast i'm
portance TO the human race, viz: Mr..
Twins bill, No. ISL. to prevent the
marriage of diseased persons. :,
That such bill should meet with
the slightest opposition from any Sc
rious man is past comprehension.
1t is of the most vital Importance
because 1t becomes preventive meas
ure instead of a corrective one. -
Much as we may wish to close our
eyes to the cold facts and push the re-
sponsibility from us. we cannot help
but know that the sad list of defective
children is on the increase.
What is the use of building homes
for defective youth institutions for
blind children - even placaEding a
city with warnings against the infec-
ton of tuberculosis when legally
We refuse to put 'stabuy on the propa-
cation of the unfit?
Many might argue that this will
not put stop to it,. That l grant
you, but it will draw the attention of
the young men and women of this
country to the vast importance Of
clean living if they expect to enter
into the most sacred relation Of hu-
man life.
Then we may hope for sane sys-
tenn of education along these lines in
our public schools, by cutting out a
few dead languages we may have time
to impart the knowledge of the inn
portance of healthy bodies and pure
minds on the future welfare of the
race. Too long have we held the sub
ject "tabu''; too long have fathers and
mothers held to the vicious doctrine
that ignorance meant innocence.
| hope that all live, serious-minded
men and women of this beautiful city
will give their moral support to Mr..
Irwin in his effort to have the propa-
cation of the human race considered
of as much Importance as the live
stock, fruit and otheroneeessary ar
ticles that are so carefully guarded
against the invasion of vile pests that
would destroy them.

GOOD RESULTS
FROM WEBB LAW
Anti-SaIoon League Members
OF Kentucky to See That
II Enforced
DRY TERRITORY TO Be DRY
Efforts To Be Made To Have Enacted
In All States Laws Similar To the
Kentucky Statute, Which Prohibits
Express Companies From Carrying
Liquor From Wet To Dry Territory.

Special triumphant exultation
OF the leaders OF the Anti-Saloon
league over the enactment OF the
Webb. law is manifest in many direc-
tions
An active worker and prominent
Kentucky member Of the league, when
recently asked concerning the effect OF
the law, made the following statement:
I'VE hope for great and good re-
suits from the Webb law, and we in
tend TO see that 1t is enforced.
1T is not so much the bootlegger and
blind-tiger peddler that we were after
when we asked congress to pass the
Webb law The local state authori,
ties can always get after them. but
what we want is some means OF stop
ping shipments for personal use,
what is the use OF our going to
the effort and expense Of voting a
county or state dry II every man In
such territory can order and get 'liq-
uor shipped to him for his own use
and the use of his friends and family!
It is this practice which we intend to
break up.
Where territory ls voted dry, we
intend that 1t shall be really dry.
I'VE demanded OF congress and Sc
cured the passage Of the Webb law
after years OF effort, and we have NO
intention OF letting stream Of whisky
flow into dry territory protected by
the excuse OF a right to get the stun
for personal use,
at is this very personal use traffic
which we intend to stop.
"If the country is to be taught tenn
perance by our efforts. this shipping Of
liquor to the homes must be stopped
This is the logical attitude Of the Anti
| Saloon league.
Having. as we claim, the right t.
secure the regulation OF the people II
their personal habits, SO far as the us'
| OF liquor is concerned-not only IL
public, but in their homes-we will
seek to use the strong arm Of the Law
in enforcing our plans.
ITO this end efforts are being mad
to have enacted in all the states law,
| similar to the Kentucky statute whicl
prohibits express and railroad com
panies from carrying liquor from
wet county to a dry county for pei
sonal use.
There will be real prohibition whe
man can not get quart OF liquo
shipped to him for his household use
but It is surely coming. and the peopl
OF Kentucky and the rest OF the cour
try may as well prepare to welcom
the day."
