THE HAND THAT ROCKS THE WORLD.
(Inserted by Request ]

Hlessings on the hand of Woman!
Angels guard its strength and grace,
In the palace, cottage, hovel,
O, no matter where the place!
Would that never storms assailed it;
Rainbows ever gently curled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.

Infancy's the tender fountain.
Power may with beauty flow:
Mothers first to guide the streamlets;
From them souls unresting grow.
Grow on for good or evd,
Sunshine streamed or darkness hurled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.
Woman, how divine your mission!
Here upon our natal sod!

Keep, O keep the young heart open
Always to the breath of God!
All true trophies of the ages
Are from mother's I.ove impelled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.

Blessings on the hand of Woman!
lathers, sons and daughters cry,
And the sacred song is mingled
With the worship in the sky;
Mingles where no tempest darkens.
Rainbows evermore are curled;

For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.

OPIUM LICENSING.
There appears to be the strongest
probability that the coming Legislature
will repeal the law to license the sale of
opium in this country, and that this very
pernicious traffic will again be prohibited.
The Planter's Association, for one, have
unanimously and emphatically demanded the repeal of the law. This body represents the capital and the industrial
interests of this country. They undoubtedly also represent the average
public opinion upon this question. They
have been governed in this action not
by moral or sentimental, but by busi-

ness considerations —by the question,
what is necessary for the prosperity of
the industrial and business interests of
the country. The rapidly increasing use
of opium among the laborers incapacitates many of them for their daily work,
makes them unreliable, indolent, thievish and destitute, as well as sickly and
wretched in body and mind. Plantations,
mills, railroads, vessels, ranches cannot
be prosperously carried on with a class
of workers so demoralized and suffering.
No doubt the Legislature will heed this
unanimous demand from the employers
of labor to remove the cause of so much

evil.
We do not forget, and our intelligent
leaders will not forget that the present
opium license law was enacted against
the fully expressed opinion of the people.
It was enacted by a very corrupt and
servile Legislature, against their own
strongest convictions, in slavish compliance with the command of one man, who
had in view an unlawful profit for himstamps this wicked
of
as
an
special execration,
law
object
and will make the promptest repeal of it
a cause of the greatest satisfaction to
the people of this kingdom, to whom its
enactment was a peculiar insult. This
strong public feeling is enhanced by the
colossal bribery scandal which attended
the operation of the law, and which has
just resulted in the death ofthe unhappy
Aki, who was the victim of the great
swindle. We do not doubt that ever)
member of our new Legislature is in full
sympathy with this general feeling of
the public mind, and that they will
promtly take such action as is wise and
expedient. We shall all breathe with
more comfort, we shall all feel a weight
of shame lifted off, when these wrong
things are set right.

While as a business convention the
Planters are supposed to be governed by
business considerations, we know that
very many if not all of them are sensible
of the force of the moral considerations
involved. And we are sure that our Legislators will strongly feel the same force.
We thankfully remember that men are

not always as bad-hearted as their arguments seem to imply, when they contend

that the State should make the poisonous opium traffic a source of revenue,
since it is impossible to suppress it. The
same reasoning would make it the duty
of Government to make a revenue from
licensing houses of ill-fame, because it
is impracticable to suppress prostitution.
Gambling dens should be licensed so as
to contribute a handsome revenue to the
government, because it is impossible to
prevent a vast amount of gambling.
The answer applying to all these cases
is twofold; first, it is dishonorable to
government to profit by the degradation
and misery of the people; secondly, the
licensing of any traffic to be public and
open lessens the shame of indulgence in
the vice licensed, weakens the sense of
criminality, and enhances the various
forms of attraction tempting to the evil
practice. There are, we believe, few
persons professing to be governed by
principles of morality who think that a
government should ever license gambling, prostitution, or opium for the sake
of revenue. If such persons do justify
the licensing of the liquor traffic, they
probably do so upon the ground that a
considerable proportion of mankind continue to hold the moderate use of alcohol a good thing, and that government therefore cannot prohibit it, but
can only regulate it.
It is not impossible—so incredibly
astray are many of the vagaries of human minds—that some persons may
have really persuaded themselves that
opium, in a reasonable and moderate
use of it, may be a harmless and usefully agreeable narcotic, such as tea and
coffee are generally considered to be,
such as tobacco is called by most persons who use it. Now, we firmly believe that no use of tobacco is really
beneficial, and that nearly or quite all
users of the weed would be greatly
benefited by abstaining from it. But we
never knew any person whose reason
was frequently dethroned by indulgence
in it as is commonly true of opium
users. We never knew one whose

nature was wrecked by tobacco, as is truth, integrity

common with opium. We never knew
of one who was driven into poverty and
crime by tobacco, as by opium. And
then think of those acute and terrible
nervous agonies which are so commonly
experienced by the victims of opium,
when the fatal drug is wanting, or when
in the later stages it has become inadequate to stupefy. Consider also the
peculiarly resistless craving which is invariably caused by opium, and which
renders a moderate use of it as impossible to most persons, as a moderate use
of alcohol is to a person of savage race.
Do not these peculiarities of destructive
derangement of body and mind, of active misery, and of resistless seductiveness, thoroughly separate in character ;i
narcotic like opium from the mild narcotic tobacco, or the very gentle tea and

coffee ?
It may be argued that a civil governschool, nor
a family home, and that it is not its province to provide for the moral elevation
of the people, but for their material welfare and security. Such is the position
taken by those who are always indignant
at laws to repress vice, and to enforce
morality, to which they apply the general term of "blue laws." But what,
then, becomes of the essential fact that
indulgence in vice impairs business
prosperity, and that morality and business integrity cannot long walk far
apart? Drunkenness, licentiousness,
gambling will impoverish and destroy a
state just as surely as they do the individuals of whom the state is composed. Has the state, then, no duty to
suppress these destructive vices, and is
it forbidden to transgress the bounds of
its province by legislating against them?Deliver us from such a state and such

"Ua mau ke ea oka aina i ka pono."
"The life of the land endureth by

and solemn motto of our little state.
We hold that all government must be
based on the sanction of righteous obligation^—founded on the sacred duties
which men owe to each other as brothers
—to help, to protect, to guide, to support, to strengthen and nourish, to heal
and restore. That government is strong,

that stands upon the sacred ground of
duty and obligation to God and to man,

the lava has been slowly and steadily
rising, and resuming its domain; again
no doubt to rage overwhelmingly, and
again in turn to retire. Its present condition is one of medium activity, but of
peculiar interest and approachableness.
We found the surface of the sand and
tufa on which we were to be studded
with numerous angular boulders. These
were all of the same very peculiar characters as those foilnd on Monday on the
western upland, but were much larger.
This testified that the point of ejection
was nearest to the southeast side of Kilauea, which we were traversing. The
same conclusion was indicated by the
great extent and depth of these masses
of ashes and gravel, covering several
hundred acres to depths apparently of
hundreds of feet. The great peninsula
we were upon was composed of such
material.
Our course now led upwards along
the southeast bank of Kilauea, to the
small satellite-crater of Ke-ana-ka-koi.
This name means the cavern for chipping adzes. This crater is a deep pit in
the upland, of some 400 feet depth, and
about 1,500 feet diameter at the top, the
sides being somewhat clothed with
vegetation. Fresh lava makes a black
smooth floor on the bottom, no debris
from the sides having fallen upon it.
This lava entered the crater in 1868,
and covered the cave or hole where the
peculiar stone had been found as material for native adzes.
One mile farther ascent of easy grade
brought us to the ohia forest at the east
angle of Kilauea, and the descent to the
depressed plateau connecting Kilauea
with its great satellite-crater Kilauen-iki
or Kilauea the less. Here we encountered a very strange thing. On the side
of the steep slope, about 100 feet below
the high upland, and 400 feet above the
floor of Kilauea, and the present bottom
of Halemaumau, a horizontal fissure
had opened in 1868, and emitted a
tremendous gush of very glassy lava.
This fissure seemed to be 350 feet long.
The lava had flooded clown the pali,
and spread over perhaps a dozen acres
of the wooded plateau, but had not lasted long enough to fairly burn off more
than half of the small ohia trees. These
stood with the lava clinging for three or
four feet up where the first rush had
carried it. Large clots of lava hung in
many of the dead limbs. A little farther
east along the pali and at a lower level,
could be seen another lava flow of some
forty years earlier date. This had
flooded the plateau and poured over its
precipice into Kilauea, where its cascade
is conspicuous.

of the men often wished that some of
the ladies would call for slower marching. At the foot of the ascent horses
were found for all but one of the ladies,
who, however, was the first of all at the

Our expected mule train from Kau
came up in good time the next morning,
and by nine o'clock we had all said good
bye to our hospitable host and his comfortable inn, and were pushing down the
long Kau road over the barren sand and
pahoehoe, having the giant slopes of
Mauna Loa away on our right, and the
long streaming smoke hiding everything
on the left. Some fifteen very long miles
brought us to mamane and ohia groves
and to Lee's half-way house. After a
lunch here, we traveled some two hours
farther in a 'bus and in brakes to Pahala

true, that the world is looking with intensest interest upon this problem which
we are solving. Shall missionary effort
for a once heathen people, after these
many years, be a failure as scorners say
and as too many Christian people are almost ready to admit; or is there enough

of the grace of God in the hearts of this
native race, to turn aside the temptations
that beset them, and make them arise
in the dignity of a Christian nation before the world ? Whether we wish it or
not, as the result of what has been done
for this country, we are indeed in a
marked degree, a city set upon a hill,
and be it darkness or be it light, we cannot be hid. May God enable each one
of us to keep his little candle burning,
that at least it may not be dark about
our dwellings !
Of all the agencies which Satan ever
devised to enslave the souls of men, and
keep both individuals and nations from
rising into light and liberty, none has
ever been more potent than the love of
strong drink. It blunts the conscience,
it benumbs the intellect, it deadens the
affections, it weakens the will, it destroys
the soul and body together. It is not
strange then, that when the enemy of
all righteousness found that this Hawaiian nation had resolved to turn from
heathenism and serve the living God, he
sent his own rum and whisky and gin

struction of the whole of the population."
Who can tell what sin and suffering
would have been saved, had the public
sentiment of Christendom sustained this
judgment! Trading vessels then in
addition to the useful articles which
these people demanded, such as clothing, hardware, etc., always kept a supply
of rum which the natives were not slow
in learning to use. In this way the
taste for intoxicants was readily introduced into these and other islands.
Mr Turnbull found that some convicts
from Botany Hay had previously escaped
to these Islands, and in return for some
service rendered Kamehameha I, had
been put in possesion of small tracts of
land, upon which they raised sugar-cane,
and from this contrived to distill a sort
of liquor. By this means the king himself acquired a relish for spirits, and navigators who touched at these shores,
at that early day carried on a lively
trade in rum and other liquors. Mr.
Turnbull relates that this taste became
so excessive on the part of the king, that
Young and Davis, white men residing
here became anxious for their own
safety during his periods ofdrunkenness
and made attempts to escape from the
Islands. In one of his timesof sobriety,
the king demanded of them—"what
could induce them to these repeated efforts to leave him, when they were treated so kindly and were daily receiving
from him whatever he had to bestow."
"That is true," they replied, "but our
lives become endangered as often as you
are inflamed with spirits. You are then
no longer master of yourself." Kamehameha accepted the reproof, and promised that thenceforth he would limit
himself to a moderate quantity, which
promise, it is said, he kept to his death.
His subjects, also acquired a taste for
the poison, but during the lifetime of
this despot, drunknness was always restrained. Not long before his death he
tabooed all distilleries within his kingdom, not a drop was allowed to be
manufactured, and breaking his law was

king's oldest son, Liholiho, afterwards
Kamehameha 11, though ardently fond
of liquor, was until his accession to the
throne, held in complete restraint by
this powerful will.
But upon the death of Kamehameha
I. in 1819, all restraint was thrown
aside. In a state of intoxication Kamehameha 11. broke the tabu, (which
till then had been rigorously enforced),
by eating dog's flesh with the women,
drinking rum with the female chiefs,
and smoking with them from the same
pipes. Seeing that no evil effects followed at once, the people shouted
"The tabu is broken ! " Messengers
were sent to all parts of the kingdom,
and the chiefs and common people abandoned themselves to drunkenness and
all kinds of excess.

must be our own works and deservings.
Here, then, we make our chief contrast.
Our own Holy Bible, our own sacred
book of the East, is from beginning to
end a protest against this doctrine. Good
works are indeed enjoined upon us in
that sacred book of the East far more
strongly than in any other sacred book
of the East; but they are only the outcome of a grateful heart —they are only
a thank-offering, the fruits of our faith.
They are never the ransom-money of the
true disciples of Christ. "Put off the
pride of self-righteousness," says our
Holy Bible; "it is a filthy garment, unfit
to cover the nakedness of your soul at
that awful moment when death brings
you face to face with the holy God."
"Put on the garment of self-righteousness," says every other sacred book of
the East. "Cling closely to it. Hold it
closely to your heart of hearts. Multiply
your prayers, your pious acts, your pilgrimages, your ceremonies, your external rights on all hands, for nothing else
but your own meritorious acts, accumulated like capital at a bank, can save you
from eternal ruin." We can understand
then the hold which these .so-called sacred books of the East continue to exert
on the natives of India, for the pride of
self-righteousness is very dear to the
human heart. It is like a tight-fitting
inner garment, the first to be put on, the
last to be put off. Nay, this may also
account for the fact that in the present
day these so-called sacred books of the
East are gaining many admirers who fall
into raptures over the moral precepts,
which here and there glitter in them,
like a few stars sparkling through the rifts
of a cloudy sky on a pitch-dark night.—

THE JAPANESE Y. M. C. A.
We reprint the following excellent report from one of our daily papers, the
Daily Bulletin, October 14, 1887.

The Reading Room in Queen Emma
Hall was filled with a large and interested audience of Japanese last evening.
The long table had been removed, chairs
arranged, walls decorated with palms
and ferns and Japanese emblems, while
from the rear room the bubbling of the
tea urn, and the fragrance of steaming
coffee, made it evident that our Japanese
friends believe in physical comfort as
well as moral improvement. A few of
our Christian workers, interested in this
new movement, were present to participate in the exercises of the evening.
After prayer by Dr. Hyde and the reading of the scripture by Rev. T. L.
Gulick, and the singing of one of the
Gospel Hymns, Mrs. F. W. Damon
playing the organ, Mr. Taro Ando, the
Japanese Consul-General made theopening address, speaking first in Japanese
and then in English. He proposed and
answered the two questions, What is the
object of the V.M.C.A.? Why should we
join it ? He spoke of the prejudices
against Christianity that had naturally
taken deep root among the Japanese
when Western adventurers landed on
the Asiatic Coast, followed by priests.
who sought to build up an ecclesiastical
organization inimical to the maintenance
of the independence of the country. But
the recent labors of the missionaries to
Japan had shown what the great object
of Bible Christianity was, the true blessedness of men, for time and for eternity.
He believed that all the Japanese present
wanted to be loved and respected, but
to secure such love and respect they
must be good and learned. To help in
securing this was the object of the Y.
M. C. A., and no one could hesitate to
say it was a laudable object that all
ought to promote by uniting together for
that purpose. Rev. Mr. K. Miyama,
from the M. E. Mission in San Francisco and Mr. Nakayama, th.: Japanese
Commissioner of Imigration tor these
islands, also gave brief addresses in
Japanese which were not interpreted.
Rev. Mr. Gulick and Mr. F. W. Damon,
and Dr. Hyde, spoke in warm approval
of this organization of Japanese for their
own benefit, morally and intellectually.
Mr. J..T. Waterhouse, Jr., on behalf of
the Honolulu V.M.C.A., pledged to the
new organization most cordial sympathy
and all possible assistance. It is not
yet 25 years since this Hawaiian nation
was declared to be Christianized and
ceased to be one of the mission fields of

'

the A. B. C. P. M. Imperfect as are
our Christian institutions they seem to
have made a favorable impression on
the Asiatic immigration to these islands.
Here at this meeting place of the Eastern and Western civilizations, we have
a Chinese Y. M. C. A. and Chinese
Churches. The Japanese seem to be
now falling into line, and adopting of
their own free-will our Christian institutions with such modifications as they
find needful to make them most efficient
for their own national characteristics and
usages. The Japanese Y. M. C. A.
Constitution, drawn up under the supervision of Mr. F. W. Damon, provides
for four Standing Committees for as
many departments, Religious Work,
Educational, Finance, Social and Literary Entertainments. It is proposed to
begin a class for Bible study next Sunday
evening. The Japanese wished the
(Committee to secure some Christian lady
to be the teacher of the Bible class. It
is strange that these Orientals should
have such respect for our Christian
women, and desire so strongly the personal influence of consecrated womanhood. Mrs. H. N. Coleman has kindly
consented to take charge of this new and
important field of Christian labor. Fortyeight signed the Constitution of this
Japanese Y. M. C. A. last evening, and
others will soon be added to this number.

given by the Entertainment Committee
on Thursday, Oct. 13th, in our Hall and
was thoroughly enjoyed by a good audience. Mr. Walter Leman of San Francisco had the leading numbers on the
programme and was ably assisted by
some of our best local talent.
Young men, whether strangers or
residents of the city, you are always welcome at the Y. M. C. A. Rooms. The
reading room or the social rooms are for
your use, and quite a variety of parlor
games can be obtained by simply asking
the Janitor or the General Secretary.
Make your appointments, meet your
friend and pass your leisure evenings at
this pleasant and convenient center.
A HANDSOME GIFT.
The fine crayon likeness of Rev. J. A.

Cruzan, recently exhibited in the window
at King Bros, has been purchased by
friends, and presented to the Blue Ribbon
League and the Y. M. C. A. jointly.
The picture was the work of Miss Ada
Nolte. It is 24 by 29 inches in size, and
incased in a heavy gilt frame. It will
hang in our Hall and we trust it may
prove an inspiring presence to those who
meet on successive Saturday evenings,
in the interest of that cause for which
Mr. and Mrs. Cruzan so faithfully labored while here—the cause of Temperance.

MONTHLY MEETING.
The monthly business meeting was

Oct. 20th, the President, Mr. F. J.
Lowrey, in the chair. Most of the committees reported favorably upon the
work of their respective departments.
Reports from the branch work at Queen
Emma Hall was especially encouraging
among both Hawaiians and Japanese.
Four young men were received as associate members. Among other business the following motion was passed:
Resolved, That the officers of this

memorial to the Legislature to repeal
the law licensing the sale of opium, and
that its importation and sale be prohibited, and that measures be passed

We once heard of a Baptist minister
who was very fond of interpreting Bible
histories and parables down to the minutest detail, and a Presbyterian neighbor professed to have been converted to
his plan. "And what passage was it
that opened your eyes, my brother?"
queried the Baptist. "The parable of
the man who went to his neighbour for
bread at midnight," was the Presbyterian's reply. "Yes;" and do you expound it? "The man was an anxious
sinner." "Yes." "The neighbor was
a Christian."
"True." The bread he
desired was saving truth." "Exactly so."
"The bed in which he was found was
the Christian Church." "Certainly."
"And the children found in bed with him
teach us children's baptism and church
membership." " Oh! " exclaimed the
Baptist, whose ardent faith in the spiritualizing principle suddenly began to cool
down, "that is carrying the process too
far; you must stop before you come to
that, brother."

NOTES.
It is with heartfelt gratitude that the
editor of this page welcome Dr. Beckwith as pastor of the new church, and
leader in the Christian work' of this city.
Every member of the Y. M. C. A. should
be thankful, that we are blessed with a
man so heartily in sympathy with our
special work for young men. We are
but a branch of the great work he has
come to conduct. Let us personally
and unitedly follow his wise leadership,
