YEAR BEFORE LAST

We bought and sold a few cases
of the LESTER BOOTS. made at
Binghampton, New York. They gave
such general satisfaction that we
quadrupled our order last year, and
this season we have already made
arrangements with the maker for
much larger supply. All who have
had them want them again, and not
only them, but they send us new
customers, and SO it goes. 1T is
THE BEST BOOT MADE. We
have yet to hear the first complaint,
but on the contrary all speak well Of
them. They COST NO MORE
THAN OTHER MAKES, and you
may as we'll have the best. Don't
forget us when you want to buy.

The Hope OfOur Country.

The only hope for our country is that a
widespread, determined energy is taking
possession of the minds of the people to rid
themselves of this rum power. 1t is sc
imbedded in the moneyed interests and the
social customs of the people, that it will
require all the moral stamina of an awak-
ened conscience to combat this hideous
evil; it will require the intelligent and per
suasivo cloquence of the moral elements,
and especially the Christian ethics, to re-
trieve an injured and debauched civiliza-
ton. We will need the inspiration that
comes from a knowledge of the means,
tears, lamentations, and lost hopes of help
less widows and orphans. We must real
iZe the claim of crushed and bleeding hui
manity. We must know that pauperized
community is demanding our protection
We must be made to know and feel that
our country is devastated with crime, idle
ness, and blood; our property and all its
best interests of the nation constantly
.eopardized, and liable to riot, anarchy,
and confusion, by the liberation and sane
ion of this monster crime of rum selling,

Goat Button to sell at $l.25 pair. They are
said to be all leather insoles and counters ana
no shoddy, have neatly worked button holes
and are in every respect, so far as can be seen !,
a big trade for the price. As the makers make
nothing else. either higher or lower price than

wouldn't be done, and the still bigger crowd
who didn't want it done, and have smote

declared there was no law at the South and
nobody to enforce it.
For 1892, Cleveland and Lowry How
does it look?
Simple minded persons, and even those
who are not simple minded, sometimes
wonder why the prohibition of the liquor
trade don't more Immediately prevail
It's Gods work, they reason, Gods plan
Of doing work, and not only in conso-
nance with Gods law, but also in full ac-
cord with the enlightened judgment of men
e. IL A.. n
They cannot understand it-these good and
conscientious but too often over sanguine
persons. They forget that no really great
reform can be brought about in day, and
that even now, after the long years of our
boosted civilization, Kilrain and Sullivan
are greater heroes in the eyes of the license
voters of the United States than tie noblest
philanthropist and moral reformer of the
pers have votes.
To our mind the marvel of the age is
that prohibition has made so wonderful adj
vances. Just think of t-a theory that wars
with mems passions and lusts, and greed
Of power, and avarice, and almost every
wicked propensity OF our fallen nature,
making such rapid advances in so short a
time. Men chale under the restraint of
law and our country is flooded with emf
grants who know no restraint but law. To
the lawless and dissolute class there is no
law so distastetul thou shalt not, "wheth-
or regarded as a divine or human edict,
aud prohibition wars with all these classes.
We repeat, nothing is more wonderful, even
in this day of wonders, than the rapid
growth of prohibition in the face of all
these difficulties. And so it is marching
on in the grand procession of all grand re-
forms and in Gods good time will get
there, and get there to stay. But don't
let's be in too much of a hurry.

Any system of license the advocates OF
prohibition hold to De wrong in principle
and pernicious in practice: that while IL
may curtail the saloons as to number, 1t IN
no sense lessons the amount of drinking or
reduces the great army of drunkards that an
nually pay the awful price OF their
debauchery The only tenable ground on
which the evils of the liquor traffic, both
in it's degradation Of manhood and its bale
full influence CD our political system, IS
absolute prohibition. To this position all
will come sooner or later, and when they
do. whatever party shall lead the way, the
common ground will be found, and the
long desired end reached, and all will be
not a little surprised that they were SO long
finding it. Evil cannot be regulated, be-
cause it is always evil, which is the true
character of the liquor traffic.
The election of Republican Governor
this fall means much To the party and the
people. The last Legislature, with its
Democratic majority, was SO under the
control of the liquor men, ~that its revolu-
tionary proceedings and bold defiance of
clearly sentiment, outraged ev-
cry sense of right and decency. and the
good name of the State demands that her
honor shall be vindicated at the polls by
the people in the defeat of the party that
SO shamefully lent itself to such prostitu-
ton OF its power. To aid in the consum-
nation of this most desirable end, and to
make the assurances of success doubly
sure, the party should carefully combine
every element of power, and make the way
to success as easy as possible.

MORE ABOUT COFFEE.

uC dIJlCle Ill JDc lsOlluOu Oal
from which VIC made copious quota
tions in our Issue Of Tuesday, has
the following additional information
about coffee on the islands Of Java
and Sumatra, which will, no doubt,
be of interest to some of our road
ers -
Coffee is u strict Government
monopoly, with the notable addition
that every family is compulsorily
engaged in it for the benefit of the
State. For the convenience OF cul-
tivators small storehouses are con-
structed all over the islands where
ever coffee is grown, and thither the
cultivator carries the beans as soon
as he has gathered and ripened
them. From these local depots
they are tranferred TO the larger
towns and sea ports of the coast.
Padang is the great centre of the
Sumatra coffee trade and the ship
ping port for Europe, as Batavia is
for Java. The so-called Padang
coffee is the product of the western
portions of the island of Sumatra
and the highlands of the south. The
shrub, curiously enough, objects to
lowlands and an excess of heat, so
that none is grown in the low-lying
regions near Padang. The plant
thrives at an altitude of eighteen
hundred to two thousand feet, and
does best on the dcclivities of noun
tains and hilly terraces, in soil
where forest trees have formerly
grown, and where the woods have
been cut down in such a way as to
leave certain number standing at
intervals to shelter the tender young
coffee plants. In Sumatra the yield
| of the coffee bush is exceptionally
heavy owing to the favourable eli
matte conditions of the island. The
bush is covered all the year round
with the small snow white blossoms
that precede the fruit, while ripe
and unripe berries are found on the
stem at the same time. Picking is
therefore, always going OIL at regu-
lar intervals, and the cherry-like lit
tie fruit is dried, removed from its
thick outer covering, and then laid
out in the sun until the husk envel-
oping the berry can be rubbed Off.
In Sumatra the fruits are just
thrown down upon the ground and
left where they are until the husk is
loosened, hence Padang coffee often
contains many small stones mingled
with the beans when they have been
carelessly gathered from the drying
heaps on the bare earth. This is
never the case with the finer produce
of Java. The Javanese are rather
particular in the matter of drying
their coffee berries, and spreaC
them with the greatest care upon
straw mats, which are then placed
in the sunshine. The shrub in the
Dutch Indies begins to yield in its
third year, and continues in bearing
condition until it is about twelve
years old. After this time the plant
assumes it's mantle of moss, precur.
sor of decay, and slowly dies off.
The natives of Java and Sumatrs
make use of the leaves of the coffee
plant in exactly the same way as we
do tea. They make an infusion Of
them--of course, after first drying
them, and this is not only as gooc
as coffee in the opinion of many
connoisseurs, but actually contain:
a greater proportion of caffeine, the
active constituent of the berry, OF
which its exhilarating and stimulat
ing effects entirely depend"

THURSDAY, APRIL IS, 1889.
DON'T LOOK RIGHT.

On the 10th inst. Portuguese
named Joe Fernandez was brought
up in the Police Court in Honolulu,
on charge of assault and battery
on another Portuguese. Fernandez
said that he was not ready, and be-
ing asked by the Court if he had
counself said yes, that Mr.. Peterson
was his lawyer. The case was there
upon continued till the 18th inst,
whensit was again called, and Mr..
Fernandez again turned up with a
request for another continuance.
He again stated that Mr.. Peterson
was his lawyer, and as he (Mr.
Petersen) could not attend on ac-
count of sickness, his case ought to
be continued. 1t also appeared
that Mr.. Peterson had telephoned to
Deputy Marshal Hopkins, stating
that he was q witness in the case,
and asked for a postponement.
This was not satisfactory to the man
who had been assaulted, and was
there with his witnesses for the sec
ond time and ready for trial. Upon
Mr.. Fernando heing questioned as
to what Mr.. pr,ecson knew about
the matter, lie lid not state that Mr..
Peterson knew anything about it,
but said something about a divorce
which that gentleman appeared to
have had something to do with. The
Court held that as Mr.. Peterson had
telephoned to the Deputy Marshal
for continuance, it ought
to be granted, and set the
case for the 10Th instant, thus neces-
stating the witnesses for the prose-
cution, who appear to be laboring
men, to attend at the court again.
1t happens that outside counsel has
been employed to assist the prose-
cution, but it can readily be under
stood that if this state of things ex-
lists, or if even the Deputy Attorney
General of the Kingdom is to inter
fere in any way on behalf of the de-
PENDANTS IN criminal cases, all conf
dence in the integrity of the prose-
cution of criminals will cease. Even
if the statement of Fernandez, that
he has employed Mr.. Peterson be
untrue, (Which, by the way he posi-
lively atlirms, with the further state
ment that he will pay him for his
services when the job is finished,
there appears at least coler of in
justice, for the defendant, from his
statement, surely relies upon the as
sistance of Mr.. Peterson to clear
him, and has retained no other law
yer. If the Deputy Attorney-Gen-
eral was applied TO by the defendant
his duty was plainly to give him to
understand that he could do nothing
for him, and not even permit the
man to expect any possible assist
ance from that quarter. This he
evidently has not done. Moreover
this is not the first complaint by any
means that has been heard about
such matters in that department OF
Government, and it would seem fit
ting that even the opportunity for
imputation of wrong should be
strenuously avoided.
