One hundred and seventeen
years ago, the fires of
independence which had
been smouldering in the
breasts of a handful of
Colonists on the Eastern bord-
er of the American Continent
burst forth in a blaze of glo-
ry; in that same fire was kind
led a patriotic feeling that has
descended from generation to
generation until the American
of today is as full of Yankee
Doodle as an egg is of meat.
In every cline, the American
is to be found, and from
Greenland to Yokohama he
patronizes the nickel in the
slot machine that plays The
Star Spangled Banner. Here
in Hawaii you find more
American flags flying than in
any foreign territory on
the map.
It's about even with the
Hendry Breaker. Wherever
there is a plantation, you find
one of our breakers; people
think it is the best, just as
Americans show a preference
for the stars and stripes.
The Alameda brought us a
large assortment of English
cutlery-pocket knives that
you've been waiting for and
which are necessary to every
one. We get them from Eng
land-George Westenholm's
factory, where they make the
best cutlery in the world. They
are as we'll known as the
Aermotor and that, you know
is a familiar word in all
languages. A 16foot geared
Aermotor goes to kilauea
plantation this week and
another one to Eva. They
are growing more popular all
the time,

WISE AND OTHERWISE.

Herbert II. Gowen has written a
fourteen-page article on the rise
and decline of the Hawaiian mon
archy, which has been published
in the Cosmopolitan magazine for
June. The article itself has not
yet reached here, but notices of it
state that Mr.. Gowen makes Kala
kaua responsible for the overthrow
of the late monarchy because he
lacked the resource, self-depend-
ence and vigor of the former rulers
Of Hawaii. Kalakaua may have
been more or less to blame in ar
ranging conditions which have has
tened the event, but the late king
can hardly be held responsible fur
Their than this. The hand which
gave the fatal push that toppled the
unstable monarchy was that of
Liliuokalani. Had the policy of
Kalakaua, of going SO far and no
further, been followed by his sister
the monarchy might have stood
unmolested for years, instead of
few brief months. However, it is
better so.

The steamer Warrimoo which
arrived in port last Saturday after
noon, was the second of the new
line to reach this port. She made
good time and carried a general
cargo composed principally of
samples of Colonial products, such
as wines, fruit, horses, meats, shale,
etc. Mr.. James Huddart, manag-
ing owner of the new line, states
that the cargo is composed chiefly
of experimental shipments with a
view to feeling the market and
opening up new trade relations.
The Warrimoo is a handsome
steamer, and her short stay here is
due to a desire on Mr.. Huddart2s
part to lower the mai record, if
possible She carried some three
thousand six hundred punches of
bananas, besides pineapples, and
watermelons from this port. The
first rice shipment for Portland,
Oregon, of about 100 tons was made.
1t is understood that hereafter the
regular shipments of rice by this
line will be very largely increased.
The Briggs case seems to be
raising a serious rumpus in the
religious world, and a perusal of
the church press shows there are
nearly as many opposing opinions
on the policy of declaring Prof.
Briggs a hereto, as there are re-
ligious journals in the United
States and elsewhere. The Christ
ian Union, which is probably the
fairest and at the same time one of
the most outspoken of the news
papers mentioned, in treating of
the case says: 'It is our deliberate
judgment that the general assembly
has by its action done more to
bring the Christian religion into
disrepute in this country than
could be done by a hundred In
gersolls. 1t has done discredit to
the Christian faith by the result
which it has reached, by the
methods it has employed, and by
the spirit it has manifested. The
spirit has been one of bitter parti-
sanship, the method one of ecclesi-
astical politics. trial, not by a
judicial body, but by mass
meeting, elected, not to try, but to
condemn. And the result has been
to set the Presbyterian church
against both the scholarship of the
age and its spirit of catholicity."

The policy of advocating a tax
on incomes is being generally dis
cussed by the democratic press of
the United States. Although va
rious announcements of Cleveland's
attitude on the question have been
made from time to time, there
seems to be nothing authentic
coming directly from him which
goes to show whether he will favor
the proposed tax or not. There is
no doubt a large portion of the
democratic press favors the scheme,
and most of them have little hest
fancy in pointing out the grounds
upon which the policy is said to be
justified. There are three points
upon which they rely: (D The
justice of the tax; (2) the needs
of the treasury; (3) the neces-
sity of some new mode of raising
revenue, if the tariff is reduced.

It's All Right

VISION WILL COME.

FROM the sunday Transcript, Rem.
Let the scare screainers now 90 in.
10 some other business. The silver
purchasing clause of the Sherman bill
is doomed a sufficient tariff measure
IS assured Speaker Crisp. in taking
the ways and means committee from
the agile and erratic Springer, gave as
surance to the country that no radical
or, at least, no harmful cnange was to
be made in the tariff laws.
The tariff laws will be changed
some, OF course, but no industry will
be halted and the duty on imports is
sure To be high enough all around to
bring in abundant revenue to run the
government. That means a pretty
stiff tariff.
Speaker Crisp has selected Tor the
charmanship the safest man on the
Democratic side in Congress. William
l.. Wilson, of West Virginia, is not a
free-trader in any sense. He knows
the needs Of the varied manufacturing
interests and the tariff laws as well. if
not better, than any man in Congress.
He is a safer man for the country, as
chairman of the ways and means, than
many one of the Republican men,
bers of the House would be.
There are good times coming, de.
spite the panic producers, and they
are not lar oil. The Democratic edi.
tors should now begin assuring people
that no danger is, or has been, in
sight to manufacturing interests. "A
word in season, how good is it ?"

A CRUSHED WIFE FINDS ONE RAY OF
UNEXPECTED SUNSHINE.

From the Chicago Tribune.
Before you go down town, Cyrus,
said his wife, "you must not forget to
leave me fifty cents. I've got to buy
some things this morning."
"This abominable extravaganza of
yours, Belinda" replied Mr.. Kneer,
opening his ket-book with visible
reluctance, sis what keeps us poor.
Where, would like to know be-
coming excited, 'is the fifty cents l
gave you last week1 What have you
done with it1 Fifty cents in clean,
cold cash, madam, gone IN less than
six days, and gone for nothing What
have you got to show for it ? Do you
think Pm made of money!" demand
ed Mr.. Kneer, taking out a coin and
slapping it down on the table. "Do
YOU"
Don't say anything more, Cyrus y
exclaimed Mrs. Kneer, with tears in
her eyes, and putting her hand hurried
ly over the money. "Ill not spend
any more of it than l am actually OBJ
liged to spend, and l thank you ever
so much |"
With notified grunt Cyrus put
his purse back in his pocket, took his
hat and went down town, and in less
than half an hour Mrs. Kneer, tremb-
ling with eagerness, was on the way to
the great dry goods stores.
For Mr.. Cyrus Kneer, by the most
calamitous and unaccountable blunder
of his whole life, had given her $40
gold piece instead of half dollar.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have a rum.
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inhamma
tion can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars

The Everlasting why"

engineer to a correspondent of the
Car and Locomotive Builder, "why a
man don't do SO when his engine
strikes. 1t all comes like a stroke OF
Lightning. When we piled 'em up in

Hicks September Weather.

The storm period central on Aug
ust 81 will give us the major part Of
its storms during the first three days
of September. The month will open
with high temperatures in all the coun.
try, except, perhaps, the extreme
West and North, from which points
storms will have moved most hkelv.
and the change Of wind and tempera-
,ure will have set in behind them.
Central storms about Ist and ed. The
change to cooler will follow promptly
everywhere and dominate the weather
until the return to storm conditions on
and touching the reactionary 9th and
7tb. A short lived cool squirt will fol-
low in the wake of reactionary storms,
reaching all parts twelve to twenty
four hours after the storms pass east
of given points.
From the 10th to the 18th expect
startling electric storms. During this
period 1t will be very warm at inter.
walls with heavy clouds and cyclones
in the equatorial regions. The polar
gates will also open and the cold
breezes will sweep down. Frosts are
very apt to result in many Northern
places. About the r7th and 18th
warm again with threatening storms.
Autumnal blasts will follow each storm.
On the cad our Equator cuts the
sun, making day and night equal
everywhere, and introducing Spring
in the Southern and Autumn to the
Northern Hemisphere. These great
forces cannot shift to opposite ends OF
our rushing, restless world without
causing many conflicts of atmosphere
and electricity. From the sIst to the
10Th we sail past the center of our
Autumnal equinox. Strong polar
waves with sleet and snow will follow,
with very cool weather to the close OF
the month.

Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton Scheaffer does not approve of the
policy of dividing the annual school
term into two terms OF three and four
months each, practice in vogue in
the counties IN northwestern Pennsyl-
vania. Mr., Scheaffer advises boards
of directors to make provision for a
continuous annual term of school OF at
least six months each in all the schools
of their respective districts as the law
expressly requires. He is of the opin-
ion that there is no valid or justihable
excuse for dividing and sub dividing
an annual school term into periods of
few weeks each. The best results
in teaching, in discipline and in study
cannot be produced by divided school
terms, and the laws governing the
operation of the system do not war
rant such practic on the part of
school boards.

the employees looked at 1t in that light.

pany, says no general shutdown of the
works is contemplated as reported.
Mr.. Baer is not alarmed by the pro-
posed reduction of the tariff. He
says that he sees no immediate
improvement in trade, as in
every department of business the ca
pacity far exceeds the possible con-
sumption in normal times. He added:
"One thing has been demonstrated
that we must enlarge our markets or
restrict our production. Just to the
extent that these times restrict pro-
duction, the outlook for the future
improves. So soon as the financial
furry is over, trade will become nor.
NAL, and there will be a healthy de-
mand for our products. l have no
doubt that in a few months all the
strong, well,located manufacturing es-
adjustments will be doing good
business"
