When folks drink more Hires
Rootbeer than ali other rootbeers
combined, there must be something
in Hires, and there is-delicious
flavor and public confidence.
Undoubtedly the reason of the
popularity Of Hires Rootbeer is, be
cause it surpasses all other prepare
tions for making delightful home
beverage. It is very easily prepared,
and if the plain directions are fol-
lowed, it will always be good.
Every member of the family, from
the baby to the grandfather, can
enjoy this excellent summer drink.
Children especially delight in Hires
Rootbeer. Its preparation interests
them, and it's use does them good.
In thousands of homes, Hires Root
beer that mother made" will be
among the happiest recollectlons of
childhood.
What others say will carry con-
viction:

SOME readers, here and in the
States, suggest that the ADVER-
TIsER should present to a greater
extent than it has done, the "cur-
rent thought of the people, during
this transition period. There is
Just now a prevailing scarcity of
that article, and what there is of it,
is rather rancid. 1t is really i'm
portant, during a period of political
revolution, that a record of mems
thoughts should be kept for his
torical use hereafter. The "cur-
rent thoughts" of our hostile, but
good tempered contemporaries, will
be occasionally noted. These papers
are to be regarded as the small boy
regarded the swapping turtle, in his
pocket: Il don't think much of
you, but me and my sister like to
piRch your tail and make you
snap"

SOLEMN THOUGHTS.

A correspondent of the Holo-
mua insists that it is the solemn
truth, that the revolution was
made by "Thurston and his part
ner, the devil" This is, perhaps,
true. 1t was a case in which
things became so desperately bad
that even the devil turned and
worked for reform. 1t was the
devil, thank him, who furnished,
the liquors which fixed up those
''drunks," who according to Mr.
Bush, were behind the Queens cab
met and Marshal Wilson, on Jan
uary 17th, and wouldn't, because
they couldn't, suppress the revolu-
tionists. 1t is said that the part
rlership between Mr.. Thurston and
rthe devil was dissolved. But
Z .as President Cleveland has recog-
nized the Republic, and according
to Mr.. Bush, that is devilish act,
it is quite certain that it is not dis
solved.

Two Maria 3eS.

Advices by the last mail state
that the two daughters of General
William H. Dimond will be mar
ried in San Francisco during the
present month, announcements of
which have been received by
friends here. The marriage of
Miss Eleanor to Mr.. Paul r.
Jarboe will take place on Friday,
September 10th, at Trinity Church,
in that city. Miss Mary Gray
Dimond will be married on We'd
nesday evening, the 29th of this
month, at the residence of her
father, 1924 Washington street, to
Mr. Joseph D. Tobin, Of that city.
Both gentlemen are well-known
lawyers.

The same correspondent of
the Holomua declares that NE
mesis and the war gods favor Ha-
wall"
How many, and what sort of
weapons Nemesis carries is not
definitely known. But about ali
of the remaining old "war gods" Of
the Hawaiians are now under lock
and key, in the Bishop Museum as
Mr.. Brigham, is not always friendly
to the Republic, it is possible that
he is permitting secret and noe
turnal dicker between these war
gods and the resurrectionists. Still,
it is highly improbable that he
would rent them ont or give them
q furlough, if he thought that
they would be injured. Rumors
that they are loose and on the
war path, should be taken with
considerable allowance.

at the summit of Haleakala
there is no reason why a visit
to the largest extinct crater
in the world should not be in
Guided in the itinery of every
personally conducted party to
the islands. The great OBJ
lection in the past to a journey
to the summit has been the
lack of accommodations for
tourists; it's been a climb and
do the best they could for rest.
Now, however, the weary
traveller will be made as COM
Portable in so far as sleeping
accommodations go as if he
was at hotel. The men who
conceived and carried out the
idea of a house at the summit
may be looked upon as bene-
factors just as we have in in
PRODUCING d piece of ma
chinery like the Aermotor
that has saved so many thous-
and dollars to the people who
are using them here on the
Islands. We sold one the other
day to a man who wanted to
use it in place of a steam
engine for cutting feed for
cattle; he thought a 16-foot
mill would be necessary, be-
cause it always required a B.
horse power engine to do the
work. We sold him a l2-fOot
geared mill, because we were
satisfied that it would de-
velop all the power necessary;
we believe it would cut nails.
The gentlemen tells US that it
has proven itself good thing
far beyond his expectations.
His experience is the same as
a hundred or more others to
whom we have sold Aer-
motors. 1t would surprise us
very much to have a person
tell us he is dissatisfied with
his Aermotor.
Try a bath in a porcelain
lined bath tub and compare it
with one in an old time zinc
affair. The difference is plain.
One of our tubs can be kept as
clean and with as much
ease as d China wash
bowl. The dirt which collects
around the sides of a zinc tub
will not stick to porcelained
one and it forever looks as
new as the day it left the
store. We have them in var
ious patterns and at different
prices, the smaller the tub and
fewer the decorations the
lower the price and the larger
the tub and more elaborate the
trimmings the more it costs
you. 1t really would not
make any difference fyou had
to pay double what We ask for
them. you would not fail to be
pleased with it; it's the com
fort one gets out of Il tub such
as we sell that makes up for
the difference between the
price we charge and what you
pay for Il zinc one.
In addition to tubs we have
magnificent assortment Of
washstands, sinks, closets and
everything needed about a
bath room. If you have an
idea that you want to refit
your old bath room or make a
new one, come to US and we
will tell you to within a dollar
or two what it will cost and
show you pretty clearly by
illustrations what the room
will look like when completed.
There's an advantage in buy
ING here at home, because you
seeejust what are you going to
get and you pay no more for
the article than you would by
sending away tor 1t.

brought US good result. Some

Appomattox May Got Her Own Again.

To the Editor OF the Dispatch:
The officials OF the Post-Ofice Depart
ment are In no wise TO blame for the
name of Surrender" having been given
10 the old Appomattox Post-Of'ice. They
simply followed the recommendations
gwen 20 them to avoid confusion. II the
residents around and about Appomattox
will address a letter TO the Post-Ofiice
Department asking that the name be
retained. | am quite sure the Post-Oihce
Department will willingly concede. and
give such name TO the newly-se.ected
county site as the citizens there desire.
and this will settle the whole AFFAIR.
W. J. NJ.
The FOREGOING communication Is from
southerner Of distinction who now re-
sides In Washington. where he Is engaged
in government work requiring II high or
der of intelligence. We therefore take it
that he knows whereof ne speaks when
he says that IF the residents around and
about Appomattox VIII address a letter
TO the Post Office Department asking that
the old name be retained" he Is quite
sure that the department will accede to
their request"
we CONlmcnl tnlS information 10 the
patrons of Appomattox alias Surrender
They are all the more entitled TO have
their wishes consulted in this matter be-
cause they never were consulted as to
giving up the name Of Apprenticeship
deed. never knew anything about ii until
it was done and they were ordered 10
select a new name
Now we beg our friends at Appomattox
alias surrender to act on this sugges-
ton, and act quickly. As things now
stand. the robbing of historical Appomat-
tox Of its name to give II to n new rail
road town is looked upon the country
over as an administration blunder; ii is
heartily condemned North and South. by
Democrats and Republicans. and by vete-
rams Of both armies. But Notwithstanding
all this the system Of red-tapism prevail
ing at Washington will scarcely permit
the wrong to be undone unless motion
therefor be made by the patrons Of the
post-oiice In question-to wit: Appomat-
tox (alas Surrender.
In view Of the keen interest awakened
in this matter throughout the land and
the prospect that the wrong can be easily
righted. the patrons of AppomattoX (alias
Surrender should hasten to draw up
petition asking the restoration of the
old name. and forward the paper to the
Post Office Department.

Free Delivery in Small Towns.

As nobody would propose to open no
public schools where they did not pay
the expense Of conducting them. so no.
body ought to object to the free delivery
of Matchmaker because of the cost Of
that sort Of delivery If a town received
all the time of even one man in its dstri-
button, that place ought to enjoy free de-
livery. We regret. therefore, to find in the
Washington Post the following statement:
Acting Postmaster-General Jones,
when asked yesterday as 10 the future
policy Of the department in the matter,
said:
The extension of the free-delivery
service to towns has been indefinitely
postponed. owing to the fact that the APP
propriations for the year will not be sufii-
Gent to maintain the service in any more
towns. II we should extend ii 70 all the
towns that are now asking for II, the
department would need at least half
million dollars for that purpose. 1t Will
be the policy of the department in the
future 10 cOnfne the extension Of the free
delivery service TO towns which we know
will have receipts sufficient to pay the
expenses.
Half a million of dollars Free de-
livery in a hundred towns ought to be
reckoned as worth that small sum. The
fact that so many towns are asking for
it is an all-sufficient reason why they
ought to have It,.

A School of Ballot Readers.

In at least two OF the congressional
districts OF this state the Republicans
are at work teaching their illiterate vo-
ters how to identify the names OF their
nominees on Official ballots without ask
Ing the aid Of the special constable at
the polls in November
These Republicans declare that they
are getting on first rate and that
the task which they have undertaken
is not a very difficult one. 1t follows
then that they have slandered the Cen
eral Assembly Of Virginia. II follows
also that our Australian ballot system Is
not cloak for fraud nor "a deliver
ance Of every Republican vote into. the
Democratic column" II thcs, schools can
put the lllterate voter upon an equal
footing with the lterate voter. SO far
from our law being the outrageous thing
that IL has been represented to b.. there
are at least two or three Of the
Republican nominees for Congress In Viz
gnia who would have US believe that
they are certainly going 10 be elected
And for our part We have conc sded mat
there are going to be some very close
contests in Virginia in November. and
we have warned our people that they
must bestir themselves to win.
The Walton law is a good law. and 1t
should be carefully studied and
administered Carried out as its
trainers intended that it should be. 1t
will show itself to be an improvement
upon any election law that we nave
had I'm this State since Virginia was
forced TO accept that bitter dose-the
Underwood Constitution.
To make the first trial of our new
election law success 1t should be read
and re-r,ad by all persons who will have
duties to perform at the polls on election
day. And so we again urge all such per-
sons 10 20 TO studying the law at once.
Surely we do not mean to be- behind the
Republicans in informing ourselves as to
our privileges and obligations under the
law. II we do then We deserve to be
defeated.
To the end that the Walton law may
be given "A full. fair. and square trial In
November next the Dispatch urges that
every person who expects to be present
AZ the polls either as an officer OF the
law or as a representative Of our party
should study the laws provisions In the
quiet Of his home. We also urge that the
best men to be obtained for the purpose
should be appointed as special consta-
bles-onicers whose duty It will be to so
into the booths When requested with IL
literate voters to assist those persons in
preparing their ballots.
Yes; let us all determine TO learn the
law thoroughly and let our electoral
boards. one and all. vest the execution Of
the law in reliable and intelligent men,
who will see that 1t is executed in its
letter and in its spirit.

OPENING Day at the Exposition.

The Exposition OF the Virginia Agrl-
cultural and Mechanical Society will be
opened to-day, and will be continued
until the 18th instant.
The Governor. with his Characteristic
obligingness and public spirit and the
Mayor. who is ever in close touch with
our people. and the military. will aid the
,nicers of the society in giving eclat to
he occasion.
The duty that now devolves upon our
community is TO insure large attendance.
This will be equivalent 10 direct con-
rihution 10 the society's treasury. and
will be a substantial token of our apprc-
station and goodwill. so let us make
he day a memorable one: memorable
or attendance and for pleasure. too,
o those who attend.
Considering the disturbed state OF
rade for many months past. it required
% little courage to undertake to have
an Exposition this year. But the soci-
,ty took the bold ground that one of the
very reasons why Richmond should wish
an exhibition was that the people might
pc cheered by coming together and see
ing one another and making new and re-
uewing old acquaintance.
on "a big day. on our Exposition
Grounds one meets people from all parts
Of Virginia. from every part Of this
country. indeed. And 50 the Exposition
would he we'll worth the patronage Of
is Richmonders If all that it offered us
Mas the opportunity of meeting and
greeting old friends But inestimable
md ever TO be cherished as is this privi-
lege. it is by no means all or nearly
all in the way Of attractions offered
The exhibition itself Is going to be good.
The agricultural. forest and mineral re-
sources of the State will be displayed
to advantage. so. too there will be a
creditable exhibit Of the manufacturing
industries of our towns. And of horses
and horned cattle. pigs, and poultry,
&c. the supply will be both plentiful
and engaging.
While the Exposition warmly commends
itself to every Nirginian and every
stranger who is amongst US. it espe-
rialy deserves the support of the peo-
pie Of Richmond. The chief benefits
iccruing from it will be to Richmond.
It will leave money here. We trust it
will add to our city's reputation; make
IS numerous new friends. We hope 1t
s therefore our duty to stand shoulder 10
shouder with President Wood and his as
VIOLATES, men who have worked in this
cause unselnshly and with unexcelled
.rdor and determination.
Now let us agree that it is our duty
20 attend the Exposition. and as often
Is possible. And the time TO put in
practice our resolve is to-day, because
Today is going to be general holiday
mere, and because to-day in all likeli-
hood weather permitting will be the time
when there will be the greatest crowd
On the grounds-the greatest crowd mean
