MUCH TO LEARN.
Mr.. Damon Does Not Know ALI
About the American League.

Mr.. EDITOR: I notice in the
Council proceedings of Thursday
last, that Mr.. Damon gives as his
reason for supporting the nominee
of the American League, that the
body in question was composed of
representative people, mechanics
and working men, who were with
the Government from the first and
would be with them to the last. /
don't know whether Mr.. Damon is
member of that honorable body
or not, or whether he has had
access to their roll of membership.
/ think if he will look carefully
into the make up of said roll he
will find it to stand about in this
way.
Mechanics and laborers who
were with the Provisional Govern
ment, January II, 1898, 20 per
cent; conservatives, members of
the Annexation party who are for
good government, and are there
fore known by the radical wing of
the league as missionaries 20 per
cent; the majority or controlling
element of 80 per cent. are most of
them men who were not in the ISL
ands in January II, 1893, and who
are solely for what they can make
out of the P. G.
Mr.. Damon is I believe as fin
ancier of the Government a COM
plete success. But as a politician
[ respectfully submit he has much
to learn.

Union PartyOfthe Hawaiian Islands

For the promotion OF the best in
terests of all the people of the
Hawaiian Islands and for the organ
ization of a party having only this
object In view, the following is
adopted as a declaration of the
principles upon which the organizs-
ton to be known as the "Union
Party" is to be established, and upon
this platform we invite the co-opera-
ton of every friend of good govern
ment.
LIST. REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNMENT
The Union Party is unalterably
opposed to any form of moDarchical
Government in the Hawaiian Islands,
and declares its full allegiance to the
Provisional Government, endorsing
the proposal for constitutional con
vention looking to the extension of
popular representation In the Gov
eminent.
I'd. PoLITIcAL UNION declare
our leading principles to be the
accomplishment of political union
with the United States of America
and the maintenance of stable and
honest government.
Sd. PUBLIC LANDs-We favor
such legislation as will promote the
occupancy of all public lands, includ-
ing those heretofore known as
''crown lands" by small holders, and
foster the development of varied III
dustries, believing it to be of vital
Importance that "many acres"
should be for "many men,"
4th. CITIZENS RIGHTs-We de
clare that all citizens are equal be-
fore the law and we are opposed to
monoplies or privileged classes,
favoring participation in the govern
ment by every loyal citizen.
9Th. LABoR-We favor such legis
lation as will substitute American,
Portuguese and other European
immigration, for Asiatic immigration,
thus securing class of immigrants
for labor purposes which will
ultimately be of permanent value to !
the country as settlers.
9Th. PUBLIC WoRKs-We favor the |
immediate establishment of a com
prehensive system of public improve
ments that shall be of permanent val
ne to the country and afford needed
employment to the laboring classes,
but we declare against importation
of labor and material of any kind
whatsoever for use on public works
which can be obtained in the home
market, and materials which must
be obtained from abroad should be
obtained through local dealers in
open competition.
7th. PUBLIC OFFIeEs-We hold
hat no person should occupy any
position of trust or profit under the
who is not loyal to the
anne.
9Th. Prison LABoR-We oppose
he employment of prison labor in
my mechanical pursuits.
9th Tax SYsTEM-We favor re
'ision of the tax system whereby all
improved and unimproved, I
hall be taxed on an equitable basis.

1t is in reference to the presence
of an immense social problem like
this, that the great Importance OF
the free kindergarten work be-
comes apparent. That work
springs from a two-fold source
from the recognition of the fact
that the society which assumes to
punish the criminal has respon-
sibility for the making of GRIM
inals. That is one fact. The
other is that character is made in
the tender first years, when the
human soul is as soft as clay in
the hands of the potter, and as
easy to be moulded into virtue or
into crime, as the clay of the pot
ter into vessels of honor or dis
honor.
1t is preposterous for society to
disclaim responsibility for the
hundreds of thousands of children
growing up neglected in the
midst of filth, ignorance and vice.
The time is coming when the So
cial responsibility for these waits,
will be as directly recognized as is
the duty of father to his child.
Pending the time when the
State shall rise to it's responsible
ties, private individuals are step
ping in with the free kindergarten,
taking children out of the street,
from degraded and drunken homes,
bringing to them cleanliness and
fresh air, and giving them a
taste of beauty and joy. It
is hardly possible to estimate
too highly the value of this work.
1t cuts under every other. It su-
percedes prison reform by stopping
the making of criminals. 1t lays
anew the foundation of the social
structure. 1t builds liberty, and
progress, and social aims, upon the
trained and developed capacities
and virtues of the individual.
While most of us have been
the beginnings of the kim
dergarten work have been made i'm |
Honolulu, humbly, but well, and
most encouragingly. Two years
have seen the establishment and |
growth of five kindergartens. But
more are needed, and those that
now are, are sadly Strengthened for
funds, funds for more teaching,
.oom for more scholars. Everyone
IAN do something to help this work
IN, with dimes as well as with dol
ars, dropping into the kindergarten
'ox two mites, or giving literally
f his abundance. There is grand
pportunity, too, for someone to es-
ablish an endowment large enough
o make the work independent of
he precarious income of the hour.
Who will make the gift?

The beauty of Haviland
China lies IN it's decorations
and texture; it's advantages
lie in the fact that, when
bought from us), if you have a
set there is no reason why it
should not be complete. We
sell you one piece or a full set,
as you wish and we have dup
licates in stock of every piece
sold. You see the advantage
over btying other kinds of
China; if your cook or steward
happens to break a piece you
can procure another from us
just like it. If you want to
begin with a half dozen cups
and saucers or the same
number of plates it's agree
able to us because we know
that it is the foundation of
full set that you will event
ually buy from us. If you
buy a full set at once we give
you a discount of twenty-five
per cent. from price charged
in small quantities.
The popularity of the Jones
Locked Fence is growing
every day-not a week passes
but some land owner feels the
necessity for it and sends us
an order: the economic fever
is spreading with the fence
and vice versa. Why should MT
it9 Unless it be a matter of
sentiment where is the man
who will not buy a superior
article at a less coast when he
can. You will not find him
among the people who have
acquired wealth and it's use
less to look elsewhere because
economy is not to be found in
the vocabulary of the poorer |
people.
When there are indications
of permanency in clear
there will be a rush
for paints, people will want to
improve the appearance of
their houses, Hendry's Ready
Mixed is the best paint for use
anywhere. 1t is cheaper in
price, a better spreader and
will retain it's color and lustre
onger than that which is
compounded by a painter.
We have sold a great many
gallons of Hendry's Ready
Mixed Paints in Honolulu and
IN the other Islands. Every
me is satisfied.

Victor, better known as "Old
Hayseed," died last Saturday night
at George Gates ranch, about two
miles west of Carson, of spasmodic
collie. Victor was owned by Mr.
George Dau gherty of Indian Valley
Plumas county, California. He was
about 10 years old and had a trottinp
record of 1922.
While his record was not as fast
as some of the flyers of the present
day, be often went to the front and
his winnings on the race track foot
up many thousands. He was looked
upon by horsemen as very game
horse, and won many a hopeless
race, by his GOODNESS and staying
qualities. Mr.. Daugherty refused
$4,000 for him several years ago

Will be Abandoned.

There is now a bill before Con-
gress to abandon the Walker Lake
Indian Reservation and q portion
of the Pyramid Lake Reservation.
This will throw open good many
thousand acres of good land, which
can be purchased at $1.25 per acre
by homestead settlers. 1t will also
throw open to location some good
mineral land in Esmeralda county.
There is also plan to get an APP
preparation for establishing an ir-
rigation system for the land thrown
open on the Pyramid Reservation,
There are only about 1000 Indians
now on the two reservations, and
these would all be given land to
live on and cultivate at Pyramid
The bill should become law.

Muscle and Vigor-A DiRerence.

Many muscular men succumb to fatigues
borne with ease by persons far their interiors
in physical strength. Muscle does not imply
vigor. In fact il is not difficult of proof that
athletes do not live as long nor enjoy as good
health as the average individual who is vigor-
ous-that is to say, whose digestion and sleep
are unimpaired. whose nerves are tranquil. and
who has no organic tendency to disease These
requisites of vigor are conferred upon those in
herently weak, no less than upon debilitated
through wasting disease, by thorough, per-
sistent course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
the leading national tonic, Endorsed and rec

but it will energy into your system, and renew

The same Old story.

The man who doesn't read the
newspapers has almost disappeared
before the march of progress and
education, but there are a few of
them left. Bill Nye pays his re-
spects to them as follows: every
newspaper man has, at some time
in his business experience, met the
man who now takes more newspa-
pers than he can read. He was in
town last week. He paid rs cents
for an almanac, wiped his nose on
an awning, tried to blow out tine
electric light at the hotel, tried to
light a cigar on it, called through
the letter slot at the postoffice for
his mail, wanted to lick the cashier
of the bank because it closed at
o'clock and watched the clock sign
over jewelry store, waiting for it
to strike"

Henry N. Copp, the we'll known
land lawyer, of Washington, d. G.,

for mines next Spring, can spend
their Winter evenings profitably in
studying this book. 1t may be or
dered by mail direct from the pub
Usher if bookstores do not keep it
in stock. The price is 50 cents.
Copp's Mining Code embraces the
U. S. Mining Laws and the official

The Markets.

This is not the season of the year
to note many changes in the local
markets, for traffic is always some
what at standstill in the month
of February, and business men do
not expect much improvement for a
month or more. We quote:
Flour, per bbl., $4.3O.
k Wheat, $1,10.
Barley, $1.10.
Ground barley, $1.25.
The prospects are that all hay in
this State will be disposed OF before
Spring opens. The scarcity of rain
in the San Joaquin valley will make
early feed short, and doubtless i'm
prove the market for baled hay. We
quote alfalfa hay in the stack at S.
per ton.
Baled alfalfa is quoted in the city
market at So per ton and timothy
$40. S. o. Wells has shipped four
cars this week to Nevada City and
Grass Valley. The demand is at
present naturally light. and the
market weak.
Butter seems to be rather duh
sale at 25 cents, with choice cream
cry a shade higher.
Eggs are still plentiful at 25 cents
per dozen.
Potatoes-Owing to the extra
freight rate to all other points ex-
cept San Francisco, Nevada spuds
cannot be handled at a profit, and
as the San Francisco market is
well supplied there is no demand
for potatoes for shipment.-Gazette

RAISING HOPS.
A LOvelOck Farmer TO Plant Twenty
Acres.

J. H. Thies, of Lovelock, intends
to plant twenty acres of hops this
Spring. He has ordered the roots
and will plant them in March
The New Era says:
Gan anlysis made in Philadelphia
Of the hops raised last year proved
them to be superior to the California
raised hops and fully equal to the
Oregon hops. Still our farmers
are slow in taking advantage o.
these demonstrated facts and stick
to wheat in competition with the
serf labor of the world and the
brokers on change. Of course it
is not to be expected that wheat
field is to be transformed into a hop
farm in one season, but it is oppor-
tune to make a beginning. Plant
an acre, half an acre, or'evet1 suffic-
lent plants from which to gather
the hops you use at home. Do not
plant them at the side of the house
or where rotten wood is liable to
send forth insects to infest the roots.
Take the best of care of the plants
and in few years Lovelock will be
in the center of an immense HOP
field, the product from which will
be worth twelve to forty cents pei
pound"
The land on the Carson river is
equal to any in Humboldt county
for hops, and if some of our Carson
river ranchers would only follow
the example of those of Lovelock
it might be greatly to their advan.
