A GOOD SHOWING OF HARD WORK Several Recommendations to In crease the Sphere of Local League's Influence. Following is the full report to the Murphy Gospel Temperance League of its president, Franklin Austin: To the Executive Council, Gospel Tem perance League: Owing to circumstances over which I had no control t has taken longer to bring the affairs of the league to a con dition of success so ardently hoped for at the outset. But I take pleasure in in forming you that at last the instruc tions of the Grand Council and Execu tice Council have been fulfilled and the promises I made the league upon accept ing its presidency have been redeemed. Th affairs of the league are now in the best possible condition and the promi nency of the organization as an instru ment for lasting good is assured past peradventure. Holding meetings, establishing sub committees, leasing and furnishing head quarters and trying the experiment of conducting a temperance resort and home-like place for those desiring to spend a quiet evening is expensive and I was delayed in acting promptly upon the powers given me by the Grand Coun cil February -22, as chairman of the finance committee, first, because of the Chapman Anti-Saloon League movement following so closely upon the Murphy movement, and later by the political agi- tation over the Dispensary bill. But through the kindness of such friends of temperance as Senator H. A. P. Bald- win George Castle. Mother Castle, T. Rain Walker. Mrs. Hendricks and in a smaller way E. O. Hall & Son and E. P. Jordan, we have been enabled to raise $1,500, of which, by reference to the treasurer's report, it will be seen there was of date of May loth a respectable balance remaining. Besides this a suffi i cient income has been obtained through . monthly subscriptions and the proceeds of Murphy Hall to pay rent, subscrip . tions to newspapers and periodicals, I wages of competent help to properly j conduct Francis Murphy Hall and to maintain regular Saturday night con I certs and lectures. There is hardly any j moment during the day from 12 m. to 111:30 p. m. that Murphy Hall is not j being patronized by persons desiring a ' quiet hour with the magazines and in the evenings it is not uncommon to see the hall filled with people enjoying the mu sic or reading. But our Saturday night concerts and practical talks . on temper ance have proved the most5 successful feature. The hall has a seating capacity of 130 people and on each Saturday night the hall haa been open, it has been filled and on two or three occasions people who could not be seated have felt inter est enough in the entertainment to re main standing in the hallway for two hours, and fully half of the audience has upon each occasion remained until 11:30, and therefore could not have visited the saloons after the meetings. The au diences have been composed largely of the persons whom it is desired to reach namely, mechanics, laboring men and sailors. As a result of these meetings thirty men have signed the pledge and resolved to lead better lives. A large percentage of these have been young Hawaiians, a class it is dsired to reach. We owe a special debt of gratitude to Senator H. A. P. Baldwin, w"ho has shown such faith in our practical tem perance movement, and who, besides be ing our largest donor so far, took suffi cient personal interest in our work to assist with a rousing speech in the open ing exercises of Francis Murphy Hall. Reverends Messrs. Westervelt, Cory and Perry also assisted with able addresses. The league also owes a debt of grati tude to the newspapers of this City for the uniform courtesy they have shown us and their sincere desire to help the I cause. RECOMMENDATIONS. The good work should not te permit ted to stop here, and from the success of the Francis Murphy Hall experiment, I make the following recommendations. First. The present Francis Murphy Hall should be immediately enlarged to accommodate iU patrons. The whole upper floor of what Is known as tne Waverly block has been offered the league andv I recommend acceptance of the offer. Second. A boarding and restaurant iea- ture should be added to Francis Murphy Hall. Third. A billiard saloon should De pur chased or established in the City with at least three tables run m connection wnn cis Murphy Hall. cv,,!!-tVi Immediate steps snoukl De takpn to establish brancn leagues on ! sugar plantation and in the country dis tricts and when local sunsenpuoiis can be obtained boaruing club houses or Murphy homes should De established and conducted under the management of the league. Fifth. Murphy clubs witn at least two billiard tables should be established at Waikiki and Palama "for the benefit of the native and white population in those sections of the Cv. Sixth. Music anu entertainment should be the principal feature of the whole system and for the accompiisnmem u this end we are particularly fortunate in the services of Edward S. Taylor, the secretary and treasurer, who is an able musician and has this feature in charge. WAYS AND MEANS. ,From the large number of public-spirited ladies, gentlemen and business men who have expressed sympathy with our work, and their wUlingness to assist the league financially, I am convinced that the recommendations I have made could be carried out successfu.y and receive ample financial support from those char Kni.lv inclined. But I am averse to ask ing charity for the objects to which we nrp. nledeed. It wouia, l Deneve, nunc i-inllv nullify our influence over the class we desire to reach, namely, drinking men. This class is very rigorously and ably disciplined by their virtual masters the saloon keeper, to pay their way, and anything in the form of charity will repel a man who drinks intoxicants. Francis Murphy halls, clubs or saloons should, rather, be philanthropic insti tutions where all those enjoying its so cial privileges feel some responsibility of contributing to their support; either by boarding, playing billiards, buying cool drinks and light lunches or by free-will offerings. Besides this plan for obtain ing income the friends of temperance in the business community will gladly con tribute monthly, especially if some ar tistic method can be devised to adver tise their business, in the various Mur phy resorts. An educational feature can also be introduced where a nominal ad mission fee is charged for good sound lectures. Regular monthly or quarterly fee balls coUld be given that would un questionably yield a large revenue. The charge for the use of the billiard tables will also pay handsomely. Many other paying features can be introduced, as the work progresses. If, then, we are to hew to the line of making our Institutions pay their way and perhaps yield a profit for the ex tension of the cause of temperance, we cannot conscientiously ask public spirit ed persons of wealth to subscribe the capital necessary to establish these in stitutions, without giving them security for their money; and providing, at least, for the payment of bank interest upon the capital invested. I, therefore, recom mend that a board of trustees be organ Ized, to comprise the president and sec retary of the league and three, prominent citizens (not officers of the league) in whom the community has confidence to hold in trust all property of the league and to have legal power to issue bonds to the full amount of the property value, to be styled temperance bonds.bearing in terest at the rate of 7 or 8 per cent and also to provide a suitable sinking fund foi their redemption. Such bonds should become bilt-edge security; first, because based upon the principle of temperance and correct liv ing, practiced and approved by a ma jority of the people; second, because the interest and redemption fund are appro priated from revenue derived from fur pi;-hing the necessities of social life in accordance with the highest moral and intellectual standards; third, because the objects they are issued to promote are approved by the sentiment of the best elements of the community; and fourth being of auasi-public nature, all possi bility of individual profit, being derived from the capital created, is eliminated all surplus profits, if any, being devoted to a cause for the betterment of hu manity. FRANKLIN H. AUSTIN, President Gospel Temperance League. READ IT IN HIS NEWSPAPER. George Schaub, a well known Ger man citizen of New Lebanon, Ohio, is a constant reader of the Dayton Volks zeitung. He knows that this paper aims to advertise only the best in its columns, and when he saw Chamber lain's Pain Balm advertised therein for lame back, he did not hesitate in buy ing a bottle of it for his wife, who for eight weeks had suffered with the most terrible pains in her back and could get no relief. He says: "After using the Pain Balm for a few days my wife said to me, 'I feel as though born anew,' and before using the entire contents of the bottle the unbearable pains had entirely vanished and she could again take up her household du ties. He is very thankful and hopes that all suffering likewise will hear of her wonderful recovery. This valuable liniment is for sale by Benson, Smith & Co., Ltd., wholesale agents.
