To an audience which quite filled the audi

the Temperance situation in Hawaii, stated that
the conditions in Honolulu calling loudest for
reform under the present license system we're:
First The unnecessarily large number OF sa-
looms
Second The close proximity of certain retail
places to the fish market and the pathetic scenes
enacted there every saturday afteTDoon
Third The special privileges granted the ho-
tells permitting them to keep open bar until
o'clock in the morning
The appeal made by the speaker seemed to
find response in the breastiof every sensible
person present, including several men prominent

that the time has now come when a campaign
