COLEMANIs CANE PLANTER.

ED. P. G. ADvERTIsER-Sir Your issue
this morning contains an item with regard
to Coleman's Cane Planter not being
adapted to the requirements of the LOUISE
ana sugar planters. In reference thereto
will simply give an extract from letter
received by me from J. Y. Gilmore, Sec
rotary and Treasurer of the Louisiana
Planters Association. He says Is I took
occasion to have the model of planter in
troduced publicly at a meeting of our as
ISOLATION. Planters showed much interest
in it, and I believe it will work well here.
1 think this should satisfy doubters.

OFFICES SEEKING.

One of the least attractive features
of the American political system is
that of profe ssional ofice-seeking.
Upon every change of Administers
ton, at every election, whether it be
national, State or M unicipal, the
scramble for office goes on. 1t is to
determine who shall control the
patronage and divide the spoils that
parties exist in the United States,
because, as a matter of fact, the ma
chinery of government runs along
smoothly in well-worn grooves, no
matter what political partisans may
say or do Indeed, were it not for
the emoluments of Office, and the
power which public place confers,
there would be little or no Indictment
to an active campaign.
This is drawback, no doubt, but
there are worse things than a stiff
breeze filing the sails of political
privateers bent upon boarding and
capturing the ship of State. Politi-
cal stagnation would be infinitely
worse. Where free men are quiescent
and permit public affairs to drift,
there is evidence of decay and ap-
preaching dissolution. The United
States, however, shows no such signs.
It is breezy and active throughout all
it's sentimental area. There is no
such thing as stagnation. There is
no Office, however humble, that is
not keenly contested for; no honor,
however exalted, that is gathered
without fierce struggle, and, let it
also be said that, when the people
alone are judges, nearly always the
best man wins.
But there is danger of the power
conferred by popular election being
abused. Indeed, it has been repeat
edly abused, and the Civil Service
act, introduced by Pendleton, a
Democratic Senator from Ohio, and
enacted by a Republican Congress
and Executive, was as much in
tended to protect Republican office
holders against their own party lead
ers as to guard against clearance
policy by the Democrats, should they
chance to get into Office. This latter

contingency was indeed an unlikely
one, and it would not have happened
when it did had Arthur been nomi-
mated instead of Blaine. But the
Democracy is now on top, and the
Civil Service act applies specially to
them.
President Cleveland is on trial be-
fore the country, and so far he seems
to realize, in the fullest sense, the re-
sponsibility of his position. Norman
3. Eaton, President of the Civil Ser
vice Examination Board, reports that
the work of the Board is going on as
usual. Congress made an increased
appropriation for this service last
session, and President Cleveland is
very much in earnest in making it
efficient. Arbitrary or partisan re-
movals have not been, and will not
be made. Mr.. Eaton says:
"There will doubtless be some re-
movals for good cause, but not enough
to give places to half of those seeking
to be examined. Old-time partisan
prescription is not, in my opinion, to
be renewed. Our politics are now
more civilized, and sound public
opinion is more formidable Within
the last ten days the Commission has
made certifications for filling eleven
vacancies in departments at Wash
| ington. which is about the usual rate
and four promotions and four perma-
nent appointments after probations
have been made from among those
selected under the rules. Several o.
these cases were in the Treasury De
partment."
Office seeking has therefore been re
duced to proper limitations in the
United States, and Cleveland will
doubtless be blamed by the crowd o
hungry expectants because he doe!
not revive the practices of half a cen
fury ago. He will, however, make
more friends than enemies by hi
firmness, and the civilized world will
approve.

WEDNESDAY MARCH 25th
A PLAGUE OF CHAMBERS.

A representative of the ADVER-
TIsER interviewed gentlemen inter
ested In horse stock in relation to the
disease of CHAMBERS, which has played
such havoc in our stables of late.
The estimate of DR.. Brodie, who
is thoroughly posted on the subject,
is that under specially favorable con-
ditions this disease may be stamped
out within a year. But if strict quar-
antine be not enforced, and if owners
of stock should fail to report suspicious
symptoms, and to isolate the suspects
pending professional examination,
then it is possible that it may prevail
until all our live stock succumb to it..
This is by no means an agreeable
outlook, but it is the most hopeful
that can be taken. The loss of stock,
measured by dollars, does not fall
much short of $4,000, which is by no
means small matter to this commu-
nifty, and every possible precaution
should be taken to arrest the spread
of the disease and eradicate it. The
suggestion that local boards of inspec-
tors be appointed at the various ports
Of the Kingdom is a good one, and
should be acted upon. But it would
be well if Oahu, where the disease
has obtained strong hold, should be
quarantined as whole, and thus pre-
vent its introduction into other
islands where it has not yet appeared.
It would hardly be right to quaran-
tine imported stock at the glandered-
horse cemetery, as suggested by Cap
tain Brown. If the animals were free
from disease when placed there they
would be pretty certain to take it be-
fore their period of probation expired.
There are other places available
Sound animals should be kept as faI
away from contagion as possible.

Recently family in this city suffered Sc
rious illness from eating canned meat.
Upon investigation it turns out that the tin
of meat had had hole punched in it,
.and that the meat remained in the imper-
ect tin for day or tive before being used.
This fact explains the disagreeable effect
its use had on the consumers. 1t is we'll
ascertained that when air is admitted TO
Theoretically sealed provisions like fruit,
vegetables and meats, chemical change
takes place, producing a poisonous salt by
the action of the acids of the fruit or meats
upon the tin. Hence it follows that when a
can of preserved eatables is opened, the con-
tents should be emptisd out at once and put
some other vessel.

Sudden Meath.

A native named Paiki was found dead at
the foot of Alakea street yesterday morning
about $50 o'clock, by a prisoner who was at
work there. The deceased was taking a
hand-cart of rubbish to the dumping ground,
when he was seen to fall over the cross bar
of the handle. When the prisoner went to
him he was lying face down and dead. The
prisoner called to the foreman of the work
ing gang, and he telephoned to the Police
Station. Officer Tell visited the body, and
was informed that the deceased had suffered
from severe pains under his shoulder blade
and in the side. The body was removed to
house on Maunakea street, and DR.. Fitch
was called in, who stated that the man had
died of anuerism. Coroner Dayton exam
ined the body, and gave directions for its
interment. The deceased was about IS years
of age. He had lived in Kikihale.

who says "Silk-lined
Overcoats P" Please remem-
ber that there is as much diff
ference in the qualities of
Silk Innings as there is in
the outside material. We
have made a study Of Silk
Innings for years, and we
think we know good ones
when we see them, and they
belong to the sort we are in
the habit of using in our
Overcoats. These Overcoats
of ours are real luxuries
this cold weather, and we
have tried to arrange the
prices SO as to bring them
within the reach of mode
rate desires. We are aware
that millionaires are scarce,

living out of the multitude,
we have prepared for them
a feast of good things in the
way Of TOP COATS that
must be pleasing as well as
profitable.
Our Finest Coats-Over-
coats-as we have said be-
fore, are of such nature as
to be utterly unknown to
the average clothing trade;
indeed, we think few tailors
can reach such perfection
as we display in ours. and
the proof of it lies in the
fact that nearly everyone
who has his suits made by
a tailor buys Ready-Made

In these Finest Coats Of
ours you get as good a fit,
better work, and finer trim
mings than are within the
reach Of tailorg, and, being
produced and sold in so
much larger quantities, we
can sell you an Overcoat for
Sixty Dollars equal in every
respect to a tailor-made one
