said Mr.. Brandenburg.
"All over the country the question
is the most freely discussed of any
before the American people at the
present time.
Five years ago it would have been
impossible to have obtained a vote on
the question at the national capitol,
but the recent majority vote in favor
of the Hobson amendment in the
house shows clearly the trend of pub
lie opinion and indicates that the
country is ripe for Legislation on this
question as never before.
"On account of the great public SER
vice performed not for this state
alone, but for cause of temperance
reform everywhere, the ex-governor
Of Kansas is being greeted by large
and enthusiastic audiences wherever
ne appears. He delights in telling the
story of the fight for prohibition in
his state and what it has meant for
the prosperity and improved citizen
ship there. He did yeoman service in
the campaign of last year and turned
thousands of votes to the dry column
n several states that voted out the
saloons.
Hon. Eugene Chafin is considered
the most logical exponent of national
prohibition on the platform. He is in
great demand in all parts of the coun-
try. Last fall he lost the election to
the United States senate from Arizo-
IA by narrow margin. His splen-
did qualities as speaker and states
manlike views of the leading nation
al issues commended him most high
iy to the people, and his support came
from those of all political parties.
Hon. C. Hall is one of the great
favorites as a popular reform lectur-
er, and every summer his time is in
great demand with the leading chau-
tauquas of the country. He has to his
credit the honor of having delivered
more lectures against the liquor traf
fic in a single year than possibly any
man in America. He possesses all the
heard he is never forgotten.

Free Sugar Menace Will Strike Body Blow
At Prosperity of Hawaii

At the present time Hawaii furnish
es approximately one seventh of the
sugar consumed in the United States.
The steadily increasing requirements
of the American market for sugar and
the fact that there was no other com,
modify demanded on large scale to
which Hawaii was so well adap!HI
have caused sugar to become the one
important crop of the island territory.
In the fiscal year ending juno ~,
1913, the value of the sugar shipped
from Hawaii to the United States was
$36,OO0,O00, while thc value If all
other shipments was only 10000 900.
Hawaii's purchases of American mrr
ehandise of all descriptions, amount
ing to over $30,0O0,0O0 Annually, are
practically all paid for by rcc,ipts
from sugar. The destruction If the
inSular sugar industry not only world
put an end to this important com
merce but would drive the indust les
of Hawaii into bankruptcy.
