A very large proportion of the so-called
champagne that comes to this country from
France is made by artifcially pumping gas
into cheap wines in order to prepare them
more quickly for shipment and to get
large profit on bogus article A court in
France has now decided that champagne is
produced by natural fermentation, and
chat to put labels on bottles of wine declar-
ing the contents to be champagne is unlaw-
full and punishable. 1t is doubtful, how
ever, if the ruling of the court will cause an
improvement in the article sent to America.

Proposed Tax on Compou ID l ard.
There are propositions to suppress or limit
by taxation the Misrepresentation and
adulteration of food products. The first
tax of this kind was that imposed on cleo
margarine. Experience proved that many
retailers could not resist the temptation of
selling it as butter. and national tax was
put upon it, but it is not likely that much
protection is afforded the general public.
The machinery of the Internal Revenue
Department is utilized in collecting the tax,
and the Treasury surplus is somewhat in
creased from this source, yet there are,
doubtless. numerous instances where cleo
margarine passes for butter Now it is
proposed to tax compound lard. 1t is said
that consumers are charged for the simu-
lated product as much as for the pure
article. OF course they ought to be pro
tected against this injustice, and manufac-
turers of genuine lard are no less interested,
because the fraud practiced by retailers is
certain to iniure their trade.
But will the levying of such tax prevent
the irregularities mentioned! Would it not
be better to enact a law providing for the
punishment of all persons who offer the
adulterated, for the pure, article! Such
law, in regard to oleomargarine, exists in
this State. Manufacturers claim that they
sell the simulated lard on its merits and re
tailers make the same claim. Therefore
they could not object to a stringent law to
prevent the sale of the fraudulent article
for the genuine one. Such legislation
would probably be more effective than
the kind proposed, and would avoid
additional taxation. Probably no
law will lie so strictly enforced as to en-
tirely do away with the evil, but that midi
Gated would no doubt be as effective as any
that could be proposed. There are so many
adulterated articles, many of which are
dangerous to the health, that it seems to be
necessary that some means shall be taken to
protect the public against them.

had a negro working on my place
who had very ugly sore on his neck,
extending from the chin to the breast
bone. 1t was eating away rapidly, and
was supposed to be a cancer. He had
gotten to such a state that he was not
able to work. and could only swallow
milk or soup At this stage decided to
try DR.. Whitehead's Blood Purifier on
him-Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potas-
stump. P P. The effect was perfectly
wonderful. The sore began to heal at
once, and the man daily gained in
strength and flesh, till finally the entire
mass of impure flesh came out, and the
place filed up and scabbed over. This
scab finally shed off and left a smooth
scar where once a most filthy eating
sore had been. The man is now work

is in perfect health. D. T. MCDUFFY.

JOHNNIE MARTIN, the office boy of San Fran
cisco firm, has great liking for bells, and never
tires listening to them. 1t is a positive mania
with him. Some weeks ago he sent type
written letter on the letter head of the firm to a
well-known bell mandatory in this State ask
ing the price of bells, particularly large church
bells, weighing from 5000 TO 10000 pounds In
reply he received circular and price list. and a
polite letter earnestly asking his patronage. He
acknowledged its receipt saying that he thought
their prices too high, and that he could do
better in San Francisco. The bellInakers at
once sent their best salesman to California with
instructions to secure the contract at auy price
and few days ago he walked into the San
Francisco house, and courteously asked for Mr.
John Martin. No one knew him until the agent
showed the letters, and then the book. keeper
said: That must be our Johnnie" It was. He
was called in and confessed. The agent was
very wroth, and demanded the instant discharge
Of the lad but the firm said No" They said a
boy who could write such good business letters
was the kind Of a boy they wanted and they
promoted him. He says when he gets rich he Is
going 70 build a church and hang in It the big

ENCROACHING WAVES.
A Big Tide AT Wafkiki-Damage 10
Property.

The little Kona which swept over the
town Saturday evening has been ruinous
enough at Waikiki. The strong west wind
blew in furious tide which attacked the
beautiful terrace in front of Mr.. w. W.
Halls elegant property and entirely de-
molished it. The plank work which built
up the makai side was all washed away in
body, but was rescued by some of the
heroic denizens and tied to Mr. Halls raft.
Great masses of turf were followed out.
resulting in collapse and disappearance.
One after another the line of fine Young
cocoanuts was undermined and tell with a
crash into the water 1t was an inspiring
sight to see that public dignitary, the
President of the Legislature, and fair
young lady personally engaged in the
rescue of one of the trees from the ayari-
ciOus pillows. She furnished the head and
he the hands and both claimed salvage
The destruction in front of Mr.. Afong's
place was even more thoroughgoing. His
solid cement parapet was all broken and
thrown down. There are great stones half
buried i'll the sands. The steps are separ-
ated from the walk, only loose blocks
OF cement lying between. Two splendid
cocoanutS have dipped their branches in
the water and the whole row is threatened.
The tower which stands on the very edge
of the beach Ga most romantic tower into
which we confess having surreptitiously
stolen) is half undermined and seems
marked by the sea Tor its own. The whole
place looks like the scene of an earth
quake. We chronicle these events with
the utmost regret, for the injury to these
beautiful homes is really public misfor-

THE BASEBALL MATCH,
A One Sided ,Iame-HonoIuIu IL. Ha-
wall 4.
wall 4.

The first baseball match of the season
between two of the old clubs took place
at Makiki on Saturday, when the Homo
lulu and the Hawaii Clubs contested the
honors. There was not so large an
audience as usual, but still a goodly
crowd watched the play from first to
last. Parker, who had pitched for the
Honolulus for seven years, having fallen
out with them, was taken by the Ha-
waits in exchange for Meek. This was
a great gain for the Honolulu, but the
contrary for the Hawaii club. Parker
was good pitcher in his time, but his
former comrades have become thoro gh-
" up to his play, as they showed on
Saturday by batting him with general
facility. On the other hand, Meek Ell
fectuallv baffied his own CLUB associates
with remarkably clever pitching, as well
as throwing them out at first base with
unerrirg precision and watching all the
bases with the vigilance OF a veteran.
The Honolulus, moreover, evinced the
superiority in all respects, which was to
have been expected from their frequent
practice and match games during the
two seasons in which their opponents
organization has been dormant. In conse-
uuence of these conditions, as the score
below testifies, the game was losing
one for the Hawaiis throughout

With the present issue OF the DAILY
ADVERTISER it passes into new hands.
The Gazette Company have, as has been
stated elsewhere, purchased the ADvER-
rIsER, which they will hereafter publish
in connection with the weekly Gazette,
and as substitution for the Daily. The
change in the management will be
accompanied by Il change in the policy
and position OF the paper. Although We
do not consider ourselves in any way
committed to any previous expression OF
opinion in either journal, yet the two
papers will continue to present an inde'
pendent criticism OF public men and
affairs from what will probably be essen
TALLY the same point OF view as that
which the Gazette has expressed for
many years past.

Mr.. HartreII,s views.

Mr.. EDITOR Believing the enclosed
communication contains matter OF such
Importance to the public as to be worthy
OF publication, l would ask space for it
in your paper.
A prominent citizen OF Maui remarked
to me recently that Mr.. Hartwell was
not himself unless he was conservative.
He evinces an earnest desire for good
government, and careful recognition of
the rights of all. No citizen who enjoys
the benefits OF an enlightened, liberal
government ought to be satisfied without
giving something in return, yielding a
cheerful and hearty support.
The administration OF the government
at this time, | believe, compels respect
and confidence. However wide we may
differ on questions OF public policy, vet
we are bound to believe that the present
conduct of affairs is a vast improvement
on the old. We must not drift back to
the old thing, which made every honest
and intelligent man blush.
Don't let us forget what we were less
than year ago, or to appreciate the
new order OF things. Each and every
citizen should be mindful of the duty of
holding up the hands of our faithful
public servants. | think that radical
changes in our government should not
be made for the present, except with the
utmost care and deliberation. Too much
legislation will not add to the public
confidence.

The huge sensation which Mr.. Bowen's
little find made last week, gives no
signs OF subsiding. The lawyers are att
now, and we believe they stand the best
chance of getting it finally. Almost
everyone will file a claim. There are
Mr.. Bradley's heirs, eager for the fray,
with two rocks to plant their feet on !;
first, ownership OF the soil and all that it
contains down to the very bowels OF the
earth, and second, evidence that it was
Mr.. Bradley's own special plant. Then
comes the sovereign, whoever that may
be, claiming property in all mines, gold,
silver, and by implication greenbacks
also. as they are merely the legal repre-
sentatives OF gold But who is the
sovereign? Perhaps year ago it might
have been easy to answer that question,
but now We prudently reserve any
opinion as long as the great suit of the
Minister OF the Interior VS.. the
Kamehameha Trustees is pending. One
sees the hungry eyes of His Majesty's
assignees on one side, and the repre-
sentatives OF an impecunious Govern
ment on the other, all claiming their
rights land other peoples, too, Last
of all comes the unfortunate finder, also,
the source of all the bother, with the
most threadbare claim Of all. Rumor
says now that he remembers burying the
treasure twice evidently a lawyer has
logged his memory. There are a good
many big fees in $1,000, as well as a
great deal OF law, and the law Will
probably last as long as the fees do.

THE country has never waited with a
more general expectation and interest
for Legislative session than it has de-
voted to the one which begins this

has been in the latter history of this
country no more important gathering.

If the conditions thus indicated-the
uniting on a common basis, the making
a common front against a common foe
can be realized, we may confidently
hope for great deal more than merely
keeping what we have got. There are
evils enough crying to every one with
ears and demanding to be remedied.
We may dare to hope for a great deal OF
legislation of the remedial sort, such as
new provisions for the purity OF elections,
for some legislation of more positive
sort, and perhaps for some further
changes in the constitution. No doubt
some changes in the constitution are
eminently to be desired, and should be
effectuated as soon as may be without
postponing more pressing measures, and
without endangering the political stabil-
ity of the country.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1888-05-29

LET us not be understood as advocat-
ing the policy OF standing still or remain
ing weakly content with what has been
accomplished. We are only trying to
indicate a solid ground OF union on which
the Reform party can all rest i'll spite Of
endless difference Of opinion as to indi-
vidual measures. We have not a grain
of respect for the unanimity which comes
from the lack of convictions, the peace
ingloriously purchased by the sacrifice
of principles. On the contrary, We are
trying to show shat unanimity is only
obtainable by and through common
principle. There is salvation in that
aud that only. A house divided against
itself cannot stand, and if the men who
carried the Revolution through are
going to lose sight OF every common in
terest and conviction because they can
not agree on temperance or Chinese
legislation, there is no hope of any
further political progress; there is little
enough of keeping what has already
been gained. A solid front against every
one who does not believe in government
by the people, in economical admins
tration, in a prohibitive tariff on fuss
and feathers-and we are safe. Beel-
zebub is the Prince of the powers of this
world, and like the English, he never
knows when he is beaten.

Perhaps the present is not an inoppor-
tune occasion to indicate the general
lines upon which the Gazette and
ADVERTISER will proceed. We shall ad-
voclte l. The economical administration
OF public affairs. This is not intended
a. glittering generality, Tor we proceed
at once to the corollary, viz; tn. neces-
sity OF abolishing the island governor
ships, as well as every other useless
means of dissipating the public funds.
>. The conduct OF the civil service on
strictly business principles. There
should be no removals except for cause.
No party or partizan consideration should
be allowed the least weight in appoint
lnents or removals. 3. The conserva-
ton OF the political privileges already
secured, with a view to their future ex-
tension.
The Gazette and ADVERTISER pledges
itself to support these views to the
best of its ability, and it will support no
one who does not in its opinion represent
them. There are, of course, other topics
on which we shall formulate a policy as
occasion arises. We have purposely
confined ourselves here to the statement
Of a political creed broad enough TO
unite all the genuine lovers OF reform. 1t
is OF infinite Importance just now that
the Reform Party should be reminded
OF what unites it and makes it essent-
ally one, before individuals begin to tall
out over matters Of detail.

bad condition. We do not care to be
mired in that slough again.

No Government at all is infinitely to
be preferred to Government on the plan
which has been followed in these islands
for so many years past. 1t is the simple
duty OF the Legislature to see that there
is no return to the old conditions. If it
is successful in that, it will be successful
on the whole, even though not single
clause in our somewhat hastily drawn
constitution be altered, nor a single new
reform be carried through Deficient
and imperfect as our new political ar
engagements may seem when considered
from an ideal point OF view, they are yet,
in spite of every deduction, not merely
excellent in themselves, but an immense
advance on what we have had. They
are excellent in themselves, because
they contain the principles Of constitu-
tional government, because they refer
the essential power to its only true
source, the popular will. Our constitu-
ton does not express the idea without
some limitations, it is true, but
no one ever succeeded yet in
perfectly embodying the true poIiti
cal idea in any constitution or
scheme OF government, although specu-
lative thinkers have been at it from
Plato to Sir Thomas More, and practical
statesmen and men of affairs from Scion
and Lycurgus to Hamilton and Jetfer-
son.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1888-05-29

The foregoing brief confession of faith
will suggest to every one Of any intelli-
gence in just what sense We profess and
strive to be independent. Our independ-
ence is as to men, organized parties par
ticular Cabinets. Independence as to
ideas, measures, principles, the indie
pendence of venality or inditference,-is
something to which we neither pretend
nor aspire. On the contrary, the Ga
zette and ADVERTISER is heart and
soul with the Reform movement, and
pledges itself to every measure which
will in its opinion tend to carry out the
spirit or contribute to the success OF that
movement.
