Ii the bill providing tor the
election of United States Sen
ators by popular vote instead
of by the State legislatures
should become a law then for
the first time in nearly thirty
years an amendment will be
tackled on to the Constitution.
1t is probable too that some of
the men who now assist IN
making laws governing the
free and enlightened citizens
of the Republic across the sea
will be retired to private life.
1t is easier to pull the wires
on fifty or a hundred people
than to work up enthusiasm
in whole district. But
money talks in any commun-
ity and it's stentorian tones
may still be heard in the land.
All senators may not be
wealthy so that there is likely
to be a change in the roster of
the Senate and the million
aires retreat may have some
"pOOr but honest members.
There does not seem to be
any change in the opinions of
the masses regarding the quail
ity of our wire. We believe
we import and sell more than
any other dealer in Honolulu
and if we are right in our con-
lectures it is apparent that it
is because we sell the best
quality for the least money.
Until the tariff goes on Sugar
people are going to go slow
about improvements and those
that are made are done at the
least possible expense. Fen
cling is something that must be
done if crops are to be saved
from the depredations of cat
tie; the cheaper it can be
done the better for the owner,
and the man who uses the
Jones Locked Fence gets not
only a cheaper article but a
much stronger one than he
would by building an ordinary
affair with posts and wire.
Illustrations of what can be
done with a Jones Locked
Fence may be seen on many
plantations on these Islands
and where our claims for
superiority have been practic-
ally demonstrated by the re-
sistence it has offered to the
attacks of unrefined cattle.
The steel wire stays and
washers are cheaper than
posts and our black or galvan-
lied fence wire is cheaper
than you have any idea of.
Have you ever been in a
house where they are using |
one of our porcelain lined |
bath tubs? If you have you
probably noticed that there
was an entire absence of cob
webs and reaches You do
not find such cleanliness
where a common zinc tub is |
because they are set in a room
so as to make good nests for
vermin, The porcelain lined |
tub is superior in other re-
spects: it can always be kept
clean because the surface is
precisely the same as a China
wash bowl; it will last a life
time because there is nothing |
about it to wear out and the !
elegant finish to it is a guar
antee that it will always re-
main new looking. AS a mat
ter of fact a porcelain lined |
tub is no more expense than a
zinc lined tub when you take
all things into consideration.
We have a fine assortment of !
them ranging in price from
away down to the high up.
The pinless clothes line fills
a gap in the wants of the
housekeeper. In addition to
other things it's labor saver;
it does not take half so long |
to secure the clothes as with |
pins and there is absolutely |
no danger in the pieces being |
blown off by the wind. A lady |
on Kauai writes Us that she |
would not part with hers for |
