Well Provided With Mothers.
rom the Pittsburg Dispatch.

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
ltshas been the singular fortune for
a certain Pittsburger, in the course
OF by no means a long life, to marry
and then lose by death no less than
four wives. During the interval be-
tween the funeral and hymeneal
feasts this amiable man has relied
upon daughter by his first wife to
keep house for him. Three times in
fifteen years has this dutiful child
taken the keys of Office, and thrice
has she laid them down for a new
wife of her father to take up.
When the fourth wife died a little
while ago she became housekeeper
again, and she settled down in the
position in the hope that her father
would be content to remain a,
widoWer for the rest of his life. She
was doomed to disappointment.
One day her father came to her and
said:
Mary, how would you like a new
mammal
Mary answered quickly: Not at
all, papa; | know when have had
enough. -Four mothers are more
than enough for me!''
The poor man was SO discouraged
by this remark that he has not
donned a wedding garment until this
day.

From the Youths Companion.

From the Youths Companion.
IhurloW Weed, on one of his trims
to Europe, as he relates in his sAu-
photography, : carried with him three
barrels OF very large American
apples, ten pairs of prairie chickens
and ten pairs OF canvas-back ducks.
These he at once divided among.
three OF his London friends, the Hon.
Abbott Lawrence, Mr.. Peabody, the
eminent American banker. and Mr..
Parkes, a distinguished barrister of
London.
This was on Saturday, and next
morning Mr.. Lawrence, who was then
minister to England, sent his son to
invite Mr.. Weed to dime with him
that afternoon. The invitation was
accepted.
On the way however, Mr.. Weed
rang the door-bell of his friend Mr..
Parkes, meaning, as. he says, to pay
his respects and pass on. The family
was at dinner.
GU are just in time to take some
OF your own medieine!o exclaimed
Mr.. Parkes. eve are dinino, upon
your American grouse"
| Mr.. Weed explained that he was
on his way to dine with Mr.. Lawrence.
but meantime the servant had slipped
a chair into place, and Mr.. Weed
sat doWn-for a few moments only.
The conversation grew interesting,
and almost before he thought ofsuch
a thing, half an hour had passed.
Then being assured that in London
a host never gave a guest more than
fifteen minutes grace, he saw moth
ing to do but to remain where he
was.
The tariff question was then under
dlscussion-when has it not been?-
and the evening was quickly over;
but naturally enough, Mr.. Weed
could not divest himself of unpleas-
ant thoughts about the very great
rudeness of which he had been guilty.
| Early the next day, mortified and
embarrassed, he called upon Mr.. Law
renee to apologize as best he could
for his indecorum.
The American minister listened
blandly, and remarked that impro-
prletles OF that sort usually brought
their own punishment, going on to
say that he had invited his neighbor,
the Duke of Wellington, to meet his
countryman at dinner and that Mr..
Weed had missed three hours Of fa-
mlllar conversation with the conquer
or of Napoleon.
Its to be hoped that Mr.. Weed
was more sorry for his own impolite-
ness than even for the loss of an in
tervieW with the Iron Duke

The Democracy Not FulIy Tasted Yet

harm has happened to the country from the
accession of the Democratic party to power
BIhe first reply is that the Democratic party

OF the party had the Southern Confederacy

Lincoln the Democratic party has not been
able to decree, enact, construe and execute a.

A Strong Argument

According to calculation made by Con-
gressmanS s. Cox and embodied in one of
ms ent speeches, the public debt of the
tsnted States in 1865 amounted to Ss4 per
capita, and has since been reduced to about
$lS per capita. This statement, comm Q,
from a Democratic source, is one of the
most powerful arguments in favor of again
placing the control of the government in the
hands of the Republicans who devised and

events, but serious matters. Much is
carefully hushed up. Much again is
cArelessly reported. 1t is thus that in
Honolulu we fail to understand theneeds
OF the country districts, and the country
districts and Honolulu fall out. There
are faults on both sides. But this is di-
gression.
We confess fairly that the idea OF a
mounted police is more for the advan-
tage OF the country than the capital. In
the capital we can have our resident po-
icemen in every quarter. We can and
do divide our city into districts and under
the present efficient management get a
fair patrol. The country districts, how
ever, should have proper protection,
and We consider that mounted police
would give it. We would like very much
to have the views OF our country cousins
upon the subject; our columns are always
open to them whether they agree with
Us or not.

IL MANY OF the islands beef sells al
n. q pound delivered at the doors OF the
consumers and at &C. pound when the
consumer comes to store to get his
meat. The Honolulu housewives, who
have TO pay l2lsc. for the same or very
f-aouentlv for an inferior article, must
envy their island sisters. But seriously
why is It that SSls per cent. is added to
the cost OF the best beef for bringing il
TO Honolulu? Surely if ii pays to sell
choice cuts OF beef elsewhere Tor Sc. q
pound. it ought to pay to sell beef in
Honolulu at loo. a pound. And again
what 3 swinging profit the ranchers OF
Oahu must be making or how very
thoroughly they must be getting crushed
bv the middle men in Honolulu. There
can be no doubt that, somewhere, some
one has got the law OF supply and de-
mand very carefully choked off and art-
fetal or stinted supply is the order OF
the day.
It's not only in the matter OF beef that
this works against consumer and pro
Queer. but in several other products as
well. The island producer could, ii he
combined. overthrow the power OF the
middle man. What is needed in Homo
lulu is a central depot at which all purely
island produce would be sold. It would
not paw one ranch or one farm TO do this,
/, must be done by combination or
rather cooperation. With such q depot
the produce OF each farm or ranch could
be sold on its own merits. We should
have put upon the market many things
which at present never find their way to
the tables Of Honolulu. There could be
an outlet Tor little delicacies raised out
side Of Honolulu which now simply go
to waste or are sent as presents 10 special
friends.
What we mean by selling on its own
merits, is that instead OF articles being
advertised as, say, island butter" or
'island potatoes" we would have them
sold SIS ..Lihue Ranch Company's
butter, " or "Hualalai potStoes. There
would be an iniucement 10 ranchers,
farmers and dairy owners 10 make the
best article they can, because by doing
good work they could get better prices.
At present under the name Of island
butter compounds good, bad and indif-
ierent are sold. and the same price is
asked for them all in Honolulu. What
is true Of butter is true OF many other
products as well.

MOUNTED PoLICE-well, We had mount
ed police 8 few years ago and nice
mess was made OF them. We should
imagine that the very name Of mounted
police would stink in the nostrils OF most
people. Managed as they were, $ mere
cavalry guard, 8 trapping OF royalty, they
were needless expense and they did
not by any means fulfill the intention
with which they had been first advo-
Gated and organized. And vet 8 mounted
police would be $ very useful thing in
deed even in Honolulu. and would be in
valuable in the country districts. We
don't want s mounted police with rifles
and earbines, and revolvers, and heaven
only knows what paraphernslis, but
mounted constables would be very use
ful indeed People IN the country live
scattered about. There are collections
OF people 81 Waikiki, At Lihue, 81 ho-
hala, 81 various spots in Hamakus-
Wherever there are such collections OF
people police are situated, but they do
very little patrol duty, indeed they may
be said 70 DO practically none. If 5 row
occurs they can be sent ior and they ire
9uentlv arrive-when il Is over. They
are on hand Tor an opium or liquor raid,
because the information Is brought 10
them usually by some iniormer who has
S down" on the people who are break
ing the law. 1t Is not the fault Of the
police thzt they ara less active than they
should be, Unmounted men cannot
i2ke in the whole OF large district, or
even a part otit. At present our police
are not mounted Tor the purposes OF pa-
trol, but only use horses in case Of special
emergency.
Now besides the collections Of people
quoted above, there are many people
living IN isolated spots, And II Is to these OF
rather to their property that protection
should be given Thank goodness,
crimes Of violence are rare here, though
recently some very serious ones have oc-

'In the first place, customers won't
rely upon woman's judgment in the
matter of gems. Suppose for instance,
you came into my store to buy your
wife a $500 pair of earrings. Behind

they would have to be pretty-and be-
hind the other is young man. Now,
which of the two would you go to?
Why, the young man, of course When
making such a purchase you would nat
urally prefer to be guided by his judg-
ment than by that Of woman
"Then another and very serious OBJ
lection to the employment of women is
that, as rule, they wont stay with us
long enough. We value our employees
for the length of time they have been
with us. All of our statesmen have been
in our employ for long time. some of
them for over @ quarter of century.
How many wonaen would have stayed
