SATURDAY. MAY 23, 1908
Liquor On the 18th of June the Board of Liquor License
Licenses Commissioners will hold a public meeting at the
Masonic Temple to hear any ligitimate objections to the issuance
of licenses to those who have applied for the same. The Board
will doubtless be pleased to listen to any one who knows of any
definite charges of violations of the provisions of the law on the
part of those who have licenses. If there are any definite changes
to be made that is the time to make them and should- be made
either in person or by letter signedby the party making the charges.
The Board should not be expected to act on anonymous letters nor
on any charge made by a person
same publicly and be in a position to back the same up by positive
proof.
The Board should not be influenced by dreamers who would
prevent as many licenses as possible for the sole reason that they
are opposed to all licenses and thus work for the benefit of the
illigitimate dealer who would do a flourishing business if the deal
ers who conduct a ligitimate business were out of the way.
The Board certainly knows that when there were no licenses in
nearly every district in the county liquor could be bought at any
time in those districts. There was as much liquor sold then as
now while the government was defrauded out of its revenue.
Where no licenses are granted liquor will be had just the same
while where there is a licensed dealer there is but little illigiti
mate traffic in liquor. Believing this to be the case we would sug
gest that any one who knows of violations of the provisions of the
law 6hould be present and protest against the issuance to any such
dealer that the Board may turn down the application of any such
applicant if there be any such and give a license to some other
applicant who may wish to conduct a business in a legal way.
If liquor selling were entirely in the hands of persons who
sought at all times to conform to the laws there would be few
objections to the trade and no need of radical changes in the law
at each session of the legislature.
School At a recent meeting of the Social Science Club of
Physician. Honolulu Superintendent of Public Instruction
W. H. Babbitt made a plea for the children of the Territory under
the heading "Compulsory Medical Inspection of Schools."
V Every teacher of experience knows that in the schools are thous
ands of children who are commonly adjudged as dull when as a
matter of fact there is some physical defect the cause of .the con
dition. And he knows too that this physical defect may be reme
died if taken in time and prevent a failure in life of the unfortunate
child.
Mr. Babbitt produced statistics that showed that in the United
States for the year 1905 there were 800,000 blind people, many of
whom would not have been so had they received proper medical
examination and treatment when they were in school. The cost to
the tax payers for the support of these people for that year was
11,500,000.
The statistics collected in the United States show that in the
country districts twenty five percent of the school children have
defective eyes while in the cities thirty per cent have defective
eyes while approximately five per cent of all school children have
defective bearing.
These are the principal defects to be corrected and as it ls'estimat
ed that it costs sixteen cents per day to educate each child there
are many children who are a constant expense to the tax payers
for whom there is no return and to point out and have remedied
these defects would be a great saving to the department and an
improved educational condition.
The plan will have to be worked out to meet the needs of the
schools here but it is certain that with a number of skilled physi
cians in the employ of the department who would give their entire
time to the examination of those needing medical treatment and
advise the parents as to th9 needs of the children much good could
be accomplished by this method.

Steam Laundry has
new Skilled Workman,
The Maui Steam Sanitary Laun
dry has secured the services of Imis
Hlanclmrd of Honolulu and is now
turning out good work and in short
order.
Since Mr. Rlanchard has taken
hold he has made it a rule that all
laundry received one day shall he
finished the following day and
strictly lives up to this rule.
The. class of work he is turning
out insures the success of the new
enterprise and those who quit the
laundry on account of not getting
their clothing returned in time are
now sending their work hack to the
laundry.
All of those who have seen Mr.
nianchard work are now convinced
that the laundry will he a success
and that it will Ik hut a short time
until the new enterprise will lie do
ing a large business and be a paying
concern.
Sake Importers
Get Bad News.
HONOLULU, May 19. "Sake
containing salicylic acid will not
be allowed into the United States.
Notify Japanese importers of such
sake to cease importing the same."
The above cable was received
this forenoon by the Japanese Con
sul General at this port. It came
from Takahira, the Japanese Am
bassador at Washington. Imme
diately upon Jhe receipt of the
above cable Vice Consul Abe noti
fied the local Japanese importers
of sake. It is expected that a
meeting of the liquor dtalers will
soon be called to discuss i.he general
situation of sake. Some of the
Japanese merchants say that the
restriction of sake will mean heavy
loss on their part. Some of the
consumers of sake when interview
ed today stated that they could get
along with the occidental bever
ages. Badly Mixed Report
of Mrs. Wilcox Visit.
Mr. and Mrs. 'Robert Wilcox
spent Wednesday here en route
from the Hawaiian Islands to their
New York home, where they .will
spend a month before opening their
bungalow at Granite Bay, Conn.,
for the summer. They have spent
fdur months in California and Ho
nolulu and the recollection is a
transport. .They leased a cottage
on the island, employing a Jap
anese man servant and a native
maid, keeping housf, enierining
and being entertained by the na
tive and foreign elements of beauti
ful Honolulu When they came
away the custom cf the Sandwich
Islanders of holding them until
the last moment with gyves and
garlands of roses, poppies and the
thousand strange blooms of those
dream-islands, in expression of
their gentle sentiments was elabor
ately borne out Mrs, Wilcox was
hung with these, as may be imagin
ed, for in her sojourn among the
warm hearted Hawaiians she be
came thoroughly known and well
loved of them. Her arms were
burdened with many-colored flow
ers; her fair throat was lassoed by
them, thrown by English, Ameri
cans and natives, in ineffectual
persuasion to remain. One of the
garlands wound about her neck,
about her waist and fell to the end
of her skirt. These garlands are
termed "leis" by the Hawaiians.
Mrs. Wilcox spoke entertaining
ly of a visit to the ex-Queen of the
islands, Liliuokalani, a woman of
brilliant, virile powers, fluent in
many languages and born to rule.
Though deposed, she is still mighty
in her influence and has a power
ful entourage. The islands were
annexed to the United States in
July, 1898, and though it was in
evitable, the monarchy is general
ly regretted. They are social is
lands, there being great wealth,
prodigal hospitality and the tropi
cal tendency to pleasure. Because
of the warmth and humidity of (he
islands, the well-to-do families re
turn to the States or go to Japun
once every year or two for a change
of climate. The (300J miles between
the islands and any mainland are
lightly thought of and traversed
with pleasure on excellent steam
ships, the best of which is the Mon
golia. Six days are required to
make the trip, which, Mrs. Wilox
declares but she has never known
the" distress of mal de mer were
truly Pacific, the sea being like a
surface of mirror.
The Wilcoxes entered into the
tropical life with zest, were lavish
ly entertained, and many honors
were bestowed upon the poet, whose
reputation had, of course, preceded
her. Theie were feasts of all kinds
in her honor, brilliant balls, flow
er parades, native dances, a recep
tion by the Governor, und inter
views with exroyalty. Mrs. Wil
cox loves blazing skies, clement
weather, the lilt and laughter of
simple, hearty people; and ' when
these are combined with weird
music, liquid dialects, romance
and strange conditions, the effect
is utterly charming. It was far
easier to break the flowery chains
that hound her to these people
than to sever from them her strong
inclination to remain indefinitely
in their midst. There are no
"nerves" in Hawaii, no jostle, no
haste; everyone is poised, rested,
happy, plucking at life's golden
fruit, which is freely offered. The
heart is warmed ' hourly by the
graciousness of folk and climate,
the eye enchanted by the lovely
and the picturesque.
The Wilcoxes say they must re
turn there, and purpose leaving in
the fall for Japan, over the North
Pacific, to return via Hawaii. The
"leis'' have worked their charm
upoi) t,ie Poet- an 8ne admits their
lure. New Orleans "Time-Democrat"
of April 5.
