THE LEADER !!

Everyone who reads knows the result
of Don Quixote's "battle with the wind
mills" Even though that cratic indi-
vidual had only the most primitive mills
to combat he found himself " done up"
on his first attempt to subdue that which
had aroused his ire; had he come in
contact with an Aermotor it is probable
that he would have refrained from any
attempt TO contest the ground with SO
strong machine. We can excuse him
for his action in battling with the an
cient style windmill, and could have
done so had he waited few years longer
and tackled the old fashioned wooden
mills which are now going rapidly out
OF date, but there could be no excuse for
his desire to fight a steel Aermotor. He
would not be in it.
Don Quixote's farce reminds us of the
attempts of some persons OF to-day who,
with even greater confidence than the
Don, start in for a fight with the Aer-
motors. They buckle on their armor
| and start out, only to end by adding to
the rapidly increasing popularity of the
| Aermotor, The greatest windmill on
earth"
We get a new invoice of Aermotors
by each steamer and yet cannot
supply the demand for them. They are
recognized as the most powerful mill in
operation, and we do not hesitate to say
that within SIX months there will not bs
single individual who needs a wind
mill on these Islands who will buy any
other kind.
You have been told through the news
papers before that the mills are so ligh
in construction that a gentle zephyr will
run them; so easy and perfect are thos
We have seen in operation, and by
letter recently received from purchase
of an Aermotor we are almost tempte
to tell you now that they will run in
dead calm. This would not be ia
wrong for we have seen 12-foot mi
revolve rapidly when there was nc
enough wind to carry the smoke fror
the stack of steam engine only shol
distance from the Aermotor. These al
facts much too hard for the manufa'
turers of other mills to fight. We enjo
hearing the praises of other mills sun
because parties interested in windmill
make comparisons and then come to OF
store and select an Aermotor. H.

HOW NOT TO DO 1T.
The "MahOpe" P0Iicy-Sitfine-
Down Financiering.

THOUGHTS, MATURED BY UNCLE ZEKE.
One of Dickens happiest conceits was
the Circumlocution Office" or How
not to do it."
1t was a caricature of the red tape
methods of the British Government.
Hawaii can, however, give points to the
old country on How not to do it," In
stead of adopting the cumbersome
methods of the circumlocution office,
and referring a given matter back and
forth between various departments and
bureaus and having it reported to death,
the approved Hawaiian official etiquette
is to forthwith stick it into q pigeon hole,
and say "we'll attend to that mahope."
The financiering of the country has
also been reduced to fine point. The
policy is short and simple. 1t consists
in collecting the taxes, putting them In
a chest, locking the chest, and sitting on
it. So long as the Interior Department
does nothing, it can make no mistakes.
What craftsmanship! So long as the
money is locked up in the Treasury, it
can not by any possibility be misspent.
What financiering! What safety
If this situation is considered to be
overdrawn, look at the facts.
The last Legislature made appropria-
tons for the following public improve
ments, among others:
Nuuanu Pail Road.
Reservoirs for Honolulu Water Works.
Extension of pipe system.
Road around Diamond Head.
New wharves, Honolulu.
Dredging Honolulu harbor bar.
Fire Department, Central Station.
Addition to Insane Asylum.
Macadamizing streets, Honolulu.
Wharves at Hilo.
Completion of Volcano road.
Road from Kohala to Waimea, Hawaii
New roads, Kona.
Road, Lahaina to Wailuku.
| Waikiki Water Works.
These are only some of the dozens Of
public improvements contemplated and
provided for by the Legislature, and not
even a beginning has been made upor
the great majority of them.
On the other hand look at the Treas
ury. According to the official fnancia
statements the balances in the Treasury
since the Legislature adjourned ha:
been continuously about 100000 anG
upwards.
On about one-half of this locked VI
dead capital, the Treasury has been pay
ing interest.
The people of this country care little
about the politics of the Cabinet
whether they be Reform, National o
Neutral; but they do insist that the pub
lie improvements necessary to the pro
gress OF the country, which the Legisla
ture has approved and directed to b
carried out, shall be carried out, an,
that the "How not to do it" "Mahope
policy be abandoned. The best an
most friendly advice that can be give
to the Cabinet is to " Do it," not =" Ma
hope" but "Now."

MONDAY,
TIMELY TOPICS.-IV.

1t is said that the Hindoo coolies
receives 25 cents per day; if the
rates paid for labor in India are
only SIS or $40 per month, why can
we not have few cargoes brought
to these islands? There are GER
tainly no insurmountable obstacles
to prevent such action, and If we
need anything, we need $40 la
borers. 1t is true that the British
Government may not consent to
such an arrangement, except under
certain conditions; but we can
comply with a great many condl-
tons sooner than have the sugar
interest suffer. Can any one give
any definite information on this
subject?
There are many complaints rela-
tive to the inter-island postal SER
vice. Nearly every week letters
and packages are miscarried; and
too often letters are never received
by the person to whom they are
addressed. No one expects infalli-
biIity, but many think that little
more care In handling the mails
would be productive OF beneficial
results.
| Why cannot Honolulu have a
free system of postal delivery? The
mail from the other islands could
be assorted and classified on the
steamers before it reached Homo
lulu. Carriers could meet the
steamers at the wharf, and in
twenty minutes all letters directed
to any part of the business portion
of the town could be delivered
The same thing could be done will
the coast mail. If the Post Offic'
Department had clerk on eacl
steamer, he could assert the busi
ness mail during the voyag
according to districts, and mel
. Ilchants would have their letters i
twenty minutes.
Very likely some one will say
cit cant be DONE" The same II
mark has been made about ever
D Improvement that has been sug
gested since Adam, and sOmeon
will be saying it when GaDrl'
sounds his trumpet.
If Uncle Sam don't care abor

Ready to Buy.

The walls of the spacious rooms of the
chamber of commerce in the Mutual Life
Insurance building are covered with oil
portraits of distinguished New York mer-
chants who have passed away. There are
about 200 pictures, and some of them are
invaluable because of their historic associ-
ations A few were painted more than 100
years ago. This extraordinary art gallery
is viewed by hundreds of visitors in the
course of year. The other day rural
party, consisting of two SWANS and three
or four lassies, found their way into the
chamber of commerce rooms and wandered
about for an hour in a state of half dazed
delight They asked no end of questions,
which Secretary George Wilson answered
with his customary geniality. Finally one
of the men, the spokesman of the party.
paused in front of the priceless, full length
portrait of Alexander Hamilton and, point
ing at it with his cane, said: When does

Alone in the World.

The man who has no family ties, no sym
pathizing companions, no genial relations
with his fellow men is very properly said
to be ''alone in the world" But such ut
ter isolation can only be the result of vo-
lition. Even the unfortunate who has out
lived all who were nearest and dearest to
him, and can say with 1.-The lone Indian"
Logan, Not a drop of my blood runs in the
veins of any living creature" may find
friends who will, in part, at least supply
the places of the dead.
We hear sometimes of people, who have
been soured by misfortune or injustice, re-
firing from the world The more fools
they. The world can do without them,
but they cannot so well do without the
world. The more they NOPE in solitude
the more unhappy they must necessarily
become, for man is constituuionaQy gre
garious and social, and cannot live her
init life without violating the conditions
upon which his mental health depends.
The most terrible punishment which the
law can inflict upon criminal is the liv-
ing death of perpetual solitary confine-
ment. What downright idiocy, then, il
must be to seek in loneliness a balm fol
sorrow-New York Ledger.

COMBINED MARKER AND TURNOVER.
other piece is bolted and allowed to ex-
tend six inches forward and foot or
more backward. A V shaped piece of
iron fastened upon this receives one end
of the gauge, which is firmly braced by
three-eighths inch iron rod connecting
with ring bolt at the forward extremity
of the center piece, thus admitting of
motion from side to side only in per-
pendicular plane. This does away with
all cords attached to the harness, and
variation from unequal pulling of the
team is avoided.
Into the center piece and rear cross
piece stout legs of some elastic timber
are inserted, which support a seat at
proper height. The front corners of this
seat are rounded and the center of the
front end cut slightly hollow. 1t is
placed just far enough forward to allow
this hollow part to rest solidly against
the gauge when in perpendicular posi-
ton, as in the engraving, holding it Sc
curely while turning or in driving to and
from the field. To prevent wear a piece
of strap iron is tackled across the front
end of the seat, and another on the gauge
where it strikes the seat. The elasticity
of the legs allows the gauge to pass the
slight swell on either side. The driver
can operate this without leaving his
place, as would be necessary with other
forms, and when raised both hands are
free to use the lines.
OF course the distance from the center
of the machine to the center of the gauge
marker must be exactly twice that be
tween the centers of the runners. The
gauge marker is made comparatively
light, IA or 10 inches high, and but or
10 inches long, the object of making it so
high being to carry the pole above the
runner. This is rather a disadvantage,
for it is much more liable to break by
catching on stones and roots than if it
were lower and shaped differently (see
second cut, Fig. A.
Another improvement of doubtful gen
eral utility, but especially suited to his
case, was made by a neighbor, whose

SECTION OF MARKER.

farm is rather hilly. He found that his
marker would slide down hill despite
every effort, and to remedy this he made
his runners of two 1t-inch pieces bolted
together, with piece of crosscut saw
blade at the bottom of each, extending
nearly the entire length of the runner
and two inches below it, as shown in the
second cut Gig. b. Improved success
with him, but turning is rendered much
more difficult, and where not absolutely
necessary it is thought best to omit this
feature.
To make turnover of this machine
cut out deep but very narrow mortise
in each runner (see dotted lines in the
second cut, b. These are made to re-
ceive the forward ends of wrought iron
beams, carrying large cultivator shovel
short distance behind each runner.
Handles are attached to these beams,
and when turning or driving to and fro
the beams are thrown forward until they
rest against the front edge of the NOR
tise in nearly upright position. The
beams should be placed as low as posi-.
BILE, that they may not interfere with
the gauge while in use. A pinch
hole cut through just below the mortise
allows the escape of any dirt that may
fall into it. While just this form of i'm
plement may not be needed on many
farms, there are good points about i
which may be made of practical use by
| nearly every farmer.

The Indian Games.

The Indian games, about which much
is being written and said OF late and
which have made fine exhibitions at
some of the poultry shows among the
fowls for fancy, are birds of great physi-
cal development and fine plumage. The
fanciers, who have welcomed this breed
with delight, claim that it is of value to
the farmer. The Fanciers Journal says:
The Indian game has many excellent
qualities, and while its apparent gawki-
ness may not suit those not accustomed
to it, the weight of the bird and its line
carcass when dressed will surprise the
most skeptical person. An Indian game
crossed ON the Wyandotte has produced
the heaviest and quickest maturing chick
ems on record. What Indian games will
do as layers we are not prepared to AN
swer. We have one pen of birds on trial
and there are four more pens in the
neirhborhood.

For DESTROYING Farm Rubbish.

A prairie burner for burning fire brakes
has been patented in Canada by T. G. Rice,
of Mandan, n D., which is constructed of
heavy sheet or light boiler iron and made
any size desired. Inside the box is a set of
gas generating burners, using gasoline,
which makes a solid, intensely hot fire.
The blaze is forced and held to the ground
by an iron draught apron, which operates
similar to high wind and consumes all
infiammable matter over which the burner
passes. 1t will burn brake over any kind
of land, up hill or down, side hill or level
ground, at the rate of about twenty miles
per day at an expense of from nineteen &c
twenty cents per mile, according to the
grass to be burned. Behind the fire box
are iron trailers, which put out any sparks
or Goals which may by chance escape from
the fire box-New York Telegram.
