THE Duluth Daily Tribune has
just put in a new Webb printing
and folding press of which it is very
proud, and justly so because it is
the most successful printing machine
in the world. Duluth has become
a great city and m ust of course have
great newspapers. The Tribune
with its complete machinery fills
the bill, ard Duluth is happy. We
wish the Tribune constantly increas-
ing business.

Mary had little lamb.
It's fleece was white a. snow,
And built q little tariff pen
To keep II safe you know.
But Roger Mills. be came along,
An ugly boy was he.
And smashed the little tariff pen
To let the lamb ~ free.
And In the night an English wolf.
As silent as q clam,
Came proving around the broken pen
And killed the little lamb.
Then Mary wept, but hopeful said,
IN have free wool at leastp'
And so YOU shall, said Roger Mills;
So said the ugly beast.
But when she went to get the fleece,
The wolf was sitting on it;
Come on. said he, "and get your wool
I've fixed my price upon 1t.
So Mary traded with the wolf,
And roundly did she pay;
For that dear fleece she fed the beast
4 twelvemonth and day.

A RECENT issue of the New Or
leans DAILY city Item has been sent
us by the publishers. 1t is the
sweetest newspaper We have ever
seen. Almost every article in the
issue before us has sugar for its text,
ably defending the necessity of the
cultivation and manufacture of
sugar in this country. The City
Item contends that the cultivation
pand manufacture of sugar is not
sectional, but national, aud cites
maple sugar in the north and east,
beet and sorgham in the west and
middle states, and sugar cane in the
South. A repeal of the war taxes
and wise protection to American
industries are set forth as the pana-
cea for all the evils that the country
labors under. The city Item elm
vokes the aid and sympathy of every
citizen in every State who would like
to see our common country indepen-
dent, prosperous and self reliant,
producing at home every thing that
our wonderful variety of soil and
climate can produce, spending at
home the surplus earnings Of our
citizens, and thus securing certain
future of prosperous growth. "

Dyspepsia

and Constipation are almost universal.
Mr.. GALLAGHER, practical chemist, of
Roxbury, Mass, who was long troubled
with Dyspepsia, writes:
8" A friend induced me to try Ayers
Pills, and, after taking one box without
much benefit, l was disposed TO quit
them; but he urged perseverance, and,
before had finished the second box,
began to experience relief. / continued
taking them, at intervals, until / had
used eleven boxes. Suffice it to say,
that am now well man, and grateful
to your chemistry, which outstrips
mine"
The head and stomach are always in
sympathy hence the cause of most of
those distressing headaches, to which
so many, especially women, are subject.
Mrs. Harriet A. Marble, of Poughkeep-
sic, n. Y, writes that for years she was
a martyr to headache, and never found
anything to give her more than tenn
porary relief, until she began taking
Ayers Pills, since which she has been
in the enjoyment of perfect health.

The Reason Why

Ayers Pills are so popular is, that
while always reliable as a cathartic
medicine, they never leave any i'll
effects. This is because they are purely
vegetable, and entirely free from calo-
mel or any other dangerous drug. In
all cases, therefore, whether the patient
be old or young, they may be conf
IDENTIFY administered.
In the Southern and Western States,
where arrangements of the liver are so
general, Ayers Pills have proved an in
estimable blessing. ID. w. Baine, New
Berne, N. c., writes:
at suffered long time with stomach
and liver troubles. tried various rem
edies, but received no benefit until
commenced taking Ayers Pills. These
pills benefited me at once. 1 took them
regularly for a few months, and my
health was completely restored"

Complaints are the most prevalent.

THE startling announcement is made
that the Committee on Public Lands and
Internal improvements is going to cele-
brate the Both of June by making a re-
port. This may or may not be true, we haz-
ard no opinion as to that, but If it is true,
there can be no more convincing proof
that our revolution is live fact than
that the Committee on Public Lands and
Internal Improvements should make a
report. 1t is as if the grave should give
up its dead. We congratulate the COM
munity on the event, and trust that the
long series of sly hits, jeers and innuen-
does which the Legislature has aimed at
this much enduring Committee may now
forever cease.

IF the bill to put the wires of the tele-
phone and electric light companies un-
derground, introduced by Mr. G. Brown,
can be passed without an unwarrantable
infringement upon vested rights, it will
be an unspeakable blessing to this COM
munity, and Mr.. Brown should be voted
a statue, as a public benefactor. The
telephone wires are public nuisance
and curse, and the sight of some of our
once well-shaded streets, dispoiled by
the telephone mans ruthless axe, is
something to make pedestrians, if not
angels, weep.

Mr.. EDITOR Il see correspondent OF
yours complains of lepers being put in
prison cells at Honokaa. l do not think
the practice is confined to that district
as the last time there was a seizure of

Hcemen told me they had got them all
locked up in prison at Kapaau. I en-
CURED what food they got there, and he
replied that they got the ordinary prison
food. If this is so, and lepers are treat
ed in all respect as criminals, it is not
astonishing that they attempt to escape
seizure. E. A. BURCHARDT.

An Open Letter to w. r.. Castle.

An Open Letter to w. X. Castle.
Mr.. w. R. CASTLE The Bill concern
ing Elections with the Report shows
exact and thorough work. But are all
it's features desirable for us?
We have to deal with an ignorant,
easily influenced electorate. The bribery
and intimidation, the marching up of
military companies or other bodies of
men to vote, the tax receipt trick, all
these unquestionably should be made
illegal and criminal acts. But is it not
true that many voters will gladly use the
secresy of the vote to vote against the
well-known wishes of the best people,
who otherwise (but for that secresy)
would exercise a wholesome, moral in
huence on the voter? Can we safely
foregO the exercise of that moral inf1u
ence in order to prevent a like exercise
of immoral influences? The Bill is
meant to prevent abuses of the elective
system-but this is not merely in the
interest of ignorant and easily corrupted
voters, it is also in the interests of the
right-minded classes. How are the lat
ter to be protected against the evils of an
ignorant and corrupt electorate, unless
they can in all honorable and proper
ways exert an influence on them? And
yet, If the voters cannot be known to
vote against good advice, they will surely
do SO. Yours,
ALFRED S. HARTwELL.

payable at the office of the Honolulu Water
Works OH the 1st of July, 1888.

the convenience and comfort of life in
these islands, and the exclusive privilege
and subsidy asked for are entirely rea-
sonable. We understand that Mr..
Bartholomew expects that work on the
cable can begin almost Immediately.
We shall, like doubling Thomas, believe
when we see, and in the meantime we
will hope. The only objection to the
bill as it now stands is that the maxi
mum rate fixed for press messages is so
high as to be practically prohibitive.
There is no paper in Honolulu which
could afford to pay for more than three
or four lines day at that rate. Fixing
a maximum at all is entirely farcical,
when it is set so high.

Water Taxation without Water.

Mr.. EDITOR: The public is much adj
vertised to pay water rates in advance,
otherwise pains and penalties to the de-
faulter ensue. l wish to know whether
this water contract is all on one side,
that is, the Government to receive the
mon y, and to furnish little or nothing
for it in return? We along on School
street, Eva side of Nuuanu, although
water taxed, are systematically deprived
of the water supply paid for, and no
notice taken of our position. To COM
plain to the water authorities would pro-
duce no result. 1 appeal to the press.
Let any one look at the string of house
holders (water rates paid) early in the
morning, Juggling up water from the
stream along said part of School street,
every day for the last week or SO, and
say whether there is grievance or not?
