THE COMING SHOW.
The "reform" element will now
busily bustle, regardless of conse
quences. There will be play on
prejudice, appeal to bins, descent to
deceit, desertion of decency, forfeit
uro of dignity and further abandon
ment of good faith. It wilt be, as
usual with shortsighted groups of
fanatics, anything to gain their
point to force their half-baked no
tions down the throats of others.
They hae mado their first big
mistake already Ih that they havo
converted their chief evangelizing
agency Into a political machine. This
Is n shameless thing.

"M" AND HIS THEORY.
"Any kind of prohibition that docs
not lessen materially the drinking of
Intoxicating liquors, Is not worth
striving for." "M.," In letter tp tho
Bulletin.
This statement from the letter of
our friend "M." leads us to remind
him that tho only form of l'rohlbl
tlon that will materially lessen
drinking of Intoxicating liquors is
total abstinence resulting from tern
perance education, not un arbitrary
declaration ot law, to the iplrlt of
which an overwhelming number of
the .people ore opposed.
One of the great troubles with tne
rroniimioniBis is uiui.mcji 11 ,u
nauni meir meua ueiuie men- icuun
men and tell them that anyone who
believes otherwise Is a knave and
so forth. They begin at the wrong
end. and Instead of enlisting tho co
operation ot "falr-mlndod temperance
people they arouse antagonism by
their bitter hatefulness. I
This Is apparently not true ot our
correspondent "M.", but It is never
theless tho stock In trnde of those
with whom he Is at present associ
ated Just to make a trial ot It.
Of, course, an experiment Is always
nttractlve to people wno uo noi
have the time to take n personal In
terest In the enforcement of present
laws or personally study the. actual
problems with which those who do
enforce them come In contact. No
law has yet been turned out that Is
perfect, and experience In other com
munities has proveu to tne sansiac'
tlqn ot all except a small minority
that Prohibition law la the least de
serving of praise.
All Prohibition has to recommend
It In Hawaii Is the fact that It has
n&t been tried recently, but. has
proved a failure elsewhere.
The present law for the regulation
of tho liquor traffic has to recom
mend It the fact that it furnishes a
medium that Is responsive to public
opinion. If, an the Prohibitionists
claim, this law has not been en
forced to thefr tfetlstuctlon, It means
nothing more or less than that tho
rtitlmont nf tlio poople in not fn fa
ror of tba exacting rulet that, mlgbf,
for Instance, satisfy our friend "M. '
And If this Is true of the present
law, certainly public opinion will not
support a rigorous enforcement ot
Prohibition. Consequently, tho pro
hibitory law, It passed, would bo a
greater fafce In Hawaii than In any
State.
The man who wants to "try it,"
despite his knowledge ot certain fail
ure, is exaotlyk liUo, the child who
persists In sacking his finger in tne
fire, notwithstanding, ha has been
told that he Wilt ho burned. He
wants to get the, experience,
In the estimation of a great num
ber of very senslblo .-pcoplo In this
Territory theref Is every reason why
the child ot liawall should not burn
Itself in this instnnco,
M." says tho liquor commission
ot this county lias not done what ho
thinks it should. Tho liullctln
could say the same thing; the com
mission persists In holding1, secret
meetings. Hut while, this commis
sion has faults, like most everything
else In this world, except Prohibi
tion, Its members are on the whole
responsive t6 tho general trend of
public opinion and follow the sug
gestions ot the radical regulators of
tho llnuor traffic with much better
effect than will ever result under a
Prohibition law.
M." Is one of those, gentlemen
who means well. Very likely ho Is
a total abstainer. Until the major
ity of tho citizens ot.thla Terri
tory are also total abstainers, Pro
hibition will bo n miserable farce, as
It Is In tiie Snte, of Ma)ne, where
the most recent record shows that
during last year five hundred
chronic Inebriates wero committed
to Jail in Ilangor, a City ot thirty
thousand Inhabitants.
If It be true that Pohlbltlon has
materially lessened tho drinking bf
Intoxicating liquors lu tho State ot
Maine, then that Stato under Ucenso
would bo a howling wilderness. Pro
hibition merely changes the method
of doing business In Intoxicating liq
uors, and dp,es not by any means Im
proVKho "standards of life.

It Is not likely that niaify would quali

I am not a believer In tho proposed

for. Tho closing of the retail saloon
would be the elimination of the great
est temptation to drink, but th sub

of liquor Is sold or drank, Is no Im
provement oer tho saloon. All sorts

mado to put these remedies on tho
statute books, and even to enforce
tho remedies now there, every ob

men, with backers from many "good

defeot it. "The Iowb aro too'strln-

26th, when, according to tho wlshos
of Congress, tho voters of this Terri
tory aro to go to tho polls to say
whethbr or not Hawaii is to put It up
to tho .legislature to pass a law pro
hibiting the salo of liquor In thrn
Islands. Now, If nn election could bq
held Immediately, from what I have
hoard and am nblo to observe, thcrd
would bo nn overwhelming vote
against this prohibition law, but whnt
win happen on July 26 Is, ot course,
another matter. It Is In, this regard
that I would ask your Inddlgenco for
a few statements with which I be
llcvo most thinking men will bo
agreed.
,Whcn any question of Biich monlent
is' brought up, particularly with n view
to having n public vote thereon, there
nro bound to bq n certain few enthus
iasts, who havo little or no business
or real Interest, In the Issue, who Jump
Into the fray with specious arguments
nnd exaggerated alarm with a vloiv
to swinging public opinion their own
way, usually 'through n course cf mis
representation exceeded In Its gross
ness only by their astounding nerve.
Wo aro hearing nnd reading daily ol
tho "curn'o of drink," tlio "road tii
damr.ntlon," "ruined homes," ond a
score of other sensational subjects
which aro harped on by tho prohl.
bltlonlst for tho sake of his seir-oi-dalncd
campaign, but are not borne
out by iho facts ns they would mako
us believe.
Hut the prohibitionist Is carefully
hiding tho Inevitable dlsagreoablo re
sults of prohibition and Is not consid
ering tho matter In tho way any ques
tion 'should be considered, where both
sides are dealt with; ho Is rather
merely voicing a huge and unreason
able protest against alcohol In gen
eral. Ho Is oven cute enough to do
Clare, by way of an aside, that the
prohibition light is not a fight against
the saloonB. What then Is It a fight
against? AgalnBt tho groceries, or the
drugstores?
'This prohibition move makes mo
think of tho Territory's qndeavor to
Import suitable immigrant laborers,
Hundreds ot Pusslans were Imported,
but they refuse to go to work. How
aro you going to mako them work?
It will bo the nmo with prohibition in
tho remote event of Its becoming law,
Hnwall may get prohibition, but how
will it he mado to work? And, as far
as I havo been able to observo, there
will be more trouble crowding on tho
heels ot prohibition, by a hundredfold
than was ever experienced with try
ing to handle the Husslnn Immigrants
after they wero brought here.
In tho first place the very Idea of
prohibition Is resented by tho people
at large, it expressions in tho public
prints can be taken as Indications, for
oven those' who say they" aro "willing
to havo It trfed" declare they are op
posed to the prohibition Idoa. It Is
as much as saying "well,- wo doubt
very much If It will accomplish any
good, but, slnco we novcr hayo had
prohibition, why, let us try It." Dj1
tho same token, o have" nevor had
socialism, therefore why not let us
try It? Prohibition in the great coun
tries of I'uropo would bo considered
rank despotism. It Is an Intringment
of tho rights of tho people and, Incl
dentally, whero It 1b the law In somo
parts of the United States, It is us
Ineffective, with very few exceptions,
as would bo a prohibition of writing
love-letters.
There Is also tho business end ot
tho matter to bo carefully considered
tho largo liquor Interests ot Honolulu,
nearly all of which ''conduct a clean,
honest business, on which business
hundreds aro dependent for their live
llhood.
Thcso aro but a few words to bo
taken as food for thought, to be con
sidered between now nnd tho special
election. In conclusion, I would say
that I have nover seen a seaport town
of the slzo'and Importance of, Hono
lulu ' where thero was tfuch Ilttlo
drunkenness, bo Ilttlo crlmo and bo Ilt
tlo unhapplness. it is remarKauio'
Honolulu deserves tho tltlo" of "Good

ally, about all I over drink ,1s n little I

not Bee why others Bhould not drink

NOTLEY LAUGHS AT
ADVERTISER REPORT
(Continued from Page 1.)
the Home Rule party, laughed at too
Advertiser report this morning, when
Interviewed by tho 11 u 1 1 0 1 1 n rep
resentative. He stated mosf. em-
phatlcally that the report "was not
only Incorrect and misleading, but
It, was altogether baseless. How
such a report got Into the. ears of
the Advertiser reporter, who pub
lished such a story, he could not un
derstand. "I have repeatedly said that I am
not aspiring for any position othor
than that of the Delegateshlp on tho
Home Rule ticket," continued Mot
ley. "Even then I am not suro
whether I will be able to get tho
nomination or not. As I am a Homo
Ruler, who believes In the princi
ples of the party on whoso platform
I have stood fur many years, I will
not endeavor to tgnoro my party and
Join the Republican or the Demo
cratic parties.
"It Is up' to tho Homo Rule dele
gation to select Its candidate' tor
Delegate to Congress. I think I will
be selected, as a candidate for Dele
gate to Congress, but this also de
pends largely on tho action ot tho
Home Rule convention, which meets
In July.
"It Is true thai some of the Demo
crats have asked me to run for Sen
ator; but this proposition I did not
consider, because It wa against my
wishes to leave the Homo Rule party,
which represents tho Interests of the
people. J
"What I and tho Home Rulers are
aiming for Is Statehood. Unless wo
have succeeded In getting what wo
wnnt, I will not consider the propo
sition of 'the other political par
ties." , Notley further stated that ho had
'talked with Link McCandless re
garding his (McCandless') possibility
of getting the nomination- fdr tho
Delegateshlp. Tho Democratic lead
er said that while he was not cer
tain at getting the unanimous sup
port ot tho Democratic convention
for the Congressional honor to which
he has been aspiring for many
months, lti's however, likely that
ho will win out In tho convention,.
Notley said, further, that there
will be nq meeting held at Aala
Park next Saturday night, as was
reported In the Advertiser.
Asked whether he had anjthng to
say regarding the speech of Kanlho
last Saturday nlghtj Notloy, who has
