PRESIDENT HEARS
DAD TALES OF US
Demoralization and De
bauchery Among
Hawaiians
Someone seems to have been writ
ing bad tales about Hawaii to the
mainland, uccordlng to letter writ
ten to President Itoosevett and re
ferred by Secretary Garfield to Gov
ernor Frcnr. It appears that the Ha
waiian people are rapidly becoming
demoralized and debauched, and that
us u result of their evil habits they
ore dying oft nt an alarming rate If
tho Information of tho good people
who nre writing to the President Is
to bo taken seriously.
The letter sent to tho President is
signed by K. Trumbull Lee, chair-
linn, mid John F. Hill, secretary, of
tho Temperance Commltteo of tho
General Assembly of tho Presbyter
riun Church In the United States of
America. The writers begin by quot.
Ing back to the President a part of
his Thanksgiving proclamation In
which he says "Let us . . . strive
with nil our strength given us for
righteousness In public and private
life." They also quote nt htm n par
agraph from his lust message that
seems to have no special bearing on
the matter, and then say that the
Christian people of the Hawaiian Isl
ands have asked their aid. It won
the consistent policy, of the Kamclia
niehas, they say, to' prohibit the li
quor traffic among their people ,but
since the annexation of the Islands to
the United States multiplied saloonB
have rome In; this baneful nstltu
Hon has been followed by the most
disastrous results, there, having been
not only the ordinary demoralization
und debauching of the people, but al
so n rapid diminution In Hie numbers
of tho native imputation.
Tho committee desires most earn
estly to present tho complaint of this
"humblo people," and would very
earnestly second their petition that
tliu Government of the United States
right this grievous wrong uy tho en
actment of such legislation as will
outlaw the liquor trninc In the Ha
waiian Islunds.

GET HEIDI III TIDE
Return of Trent Will Not
Be Finished By
Wednesday
It does not seem probable that tho
return of Treasurer Trent In tho
matter of the mandamus suit which
has been filed against 111 m In tho
name of Charles Coster, will be ready
on Wednesday, the date set by Judge
Hoblnson's order for him to show
ca.uso why he has not paid Coster's
warrant, and tho beginning of the
cute, which Is to settle definitely tho
dispute between the Mayor and the
Itepubllcnu majority of the Hoard of
Supervisors Is therefore a llttlo fur
ther off than was thought would bo
the case.
Tliu papers, In tho caso wero filed
Inst Saturday, but wero not served on
Trent until this morning, and Attor
ney Watson, to whom they were lui-
mediately passod. does not think II
pobslble to get Trout's return ready
i,i Wednesday. Furthermore. Wat-

no dilatory pleas will be filed, unless
the writ should be found to be so
fatally defoctlvo that It would be ot
no vulue for the test, and no such
contingency Is expected. The Demo
unts claim that they nro as anxious
