put out some weeks ago, because an
advertisement appeared in certain
journals, calling for stocks and
bonds in his ompany. He declared
that, the object OF the "ad" was to
find out the market price of his
shares, and that it was inserted to
injure and insult. He resented the
desire OF two stockholders in his
company to sell their shares, and
virtually considered it treason to-
wards him. According to his ideas
evidently the man who invests his
money in stock must not offer them
for sale, and sell them at loss, be-
cause such action might injure the
credit of the company and the other
stockholders,

THE SCARE.

The Board of Health, aided by the
Executive, is sitting this afternoon
in consultation with every leading
physician in the town. Their
prompt action for the protection of
the public safety is worthy of the
highest praise. The people may
rest assured that their safety from
epidemic is in the best hands. What
the executive action may be is not
yet decided on. No fear need be
felt however, and if the supposed
cases turn out to be really cholera,
every precaution modern science
knows will be taken for prompt pre-
vention Of its spread. In the mean
time rest easy. All is we'll.

1t is about time that every money
transaction, be it in real estate, or
stocks, or bonds, be publicly an
nounced. Investors can thereby be
guided in their investments, aad
they will know what is fair to pay
for house, or a bond, or a share.
The present secrecy is as objection
able as it certainly is unbecoming
to the often boasted wealth and intel
ligence of our business men.

FUNNY MERCHANTS.

The business community of Ha-
waii is really most unique. We
don't think that it can find its equal
any whore in the world. All busi-
ness transactions are here kept in
the most secret manner. Market
quotations OF stocks are never pub
lished, and even at the banks you
cannot learn them Except you be-
long to the sinner" circles.) Sales
OF property and the prices paid are
kept jealously private as being no
business of the public. And yet,
the first thing stranger desiring to
invest money here will ask is in re-
gard to the value of real estate, of
sugar stocks, etc, and dividends.

made one of the most beautiful

1t cannot be denied that the
war cloud which hangs over the
world at present is getting darker
and darker. 1t is historical
fact that the end of each CEN
tury has always been fraught
with bloodshed and strife, in
ternally as well as externally.
The great powers of Europe to-
day are making and unmaking
alliances of all kinds. The fact
is that diplomacy to-day is using
every means to postpone the day
when the crash must come and
gain time for the different coun-
tries to prepare themselves for
the gigantic struggle which will
and must take place before the
present generation dates its let
ters in the year 1900. Turkey
is threatened from all sides. The
Russian bear is extending his
claws and licking his blood
thirsty tongue towards the East
and South in anticipation of
gain. The passive and cold
brother nations who inhabit the
scandinavian peninsula are
now glaring ferociously ready to
spring at each others throats.
Germany, under it's impetuous,
indiscreet imperial master, is
drifting into the deceptive mael-
strom of conquest, and war, in
which all past experience, all
knowledge gained through the
horrors of war are forgotten, and
where only false sentiment and
sham patriotism are ruling.
And while the giants get
ready for the great war their ,
leaders have realized one thing,
and that is, that no army will
have a show, no militia chance,
except provided with the indis-
pensable bicycle. And no won
der that the monarchial coun-
tries of Europe prefer the "Mon-
arch" to any other kind, and
supply their wheeling cavalry"
with that favorite brand.
We have watched proceedings
in the great countries with
great deal of care, and we have
secured the sole agency for Ha-
waii of the Monarch Cycle. We
have realized that, not alone a
large stock is necessary, but that
a workshop, in which all needed
repairs can be done is in the in
terest of our patrons, and we have
established one above our stores
on Fort street. This "bicycle
infirmary" will attend to any
sickness" which the wheel
may meet through accident or
lack Of care. Our prices are far
below veterinary figures. We
fix the Monarchs sold by us at
cost price if ever they should
need it. We have everything
on hand and have secured the
services of most experienced
bicycle man, whose work we
guarantee.
AS the bicycle is not only of
advantage in war but love, we
wish to call the attention of the
young boys and girls who have
to spend their vacations in Ho-
nolulu, that we have wheels Just
suitable for them. If daddy
can't send them to the country
for a trip-or buy them bow
wow-let them ask him for a
Monarch. 1t will give more
pleasure and last much longer
than even volcano trip.

Mr.. P. G. Jones, at one time, started
to publish circular which gave the
quotations of stock as he found
them, and also stated the dividends
declared by different companies.
He issued that circular once and
then he dropped it. He was asked
short while ago, why he did not
coAtinue the circular, and his ans
wer was TO the effect that it would
never do, as the stocks were way
down and the dividends we're very
small.

However, it is we'll that Mr.. Thurs
ton doesn't propose to wait until
that object is accomplished. An i'm
provement association can start the
work which in due time will fall on
the municipality and be continued
by it. The large cities in Northern
Europe, for instance, owe their
beauties to local improvement asso-
Citations. As a rule such associations
we're started by a few energetic
men, and contributions came in liber-
ally, especially as soon as the COM
munity saw the elegant parks and
squares, fountains and statues, and
other objects tending to beautify
the city. 1t is the first step that
costs. If Thurston does not get dis
couraged by the apathy of our
wealthy citizens but keeps on dig
ging at them, we have no doubt that
he will succeed. And after the first
park is laid out near the beach, the
first decent road along the ocean,
the first decent square with foun-
tain, etc, arranged, he will find that
the rest will be easily obtained. But
we admit it is hard job to get any
life and patriotism into our fattened
sugar bags.

The criticisms OF the Star on the
"fake" quality if the alleged fill
buster expedition are backed by the
assertion that such things in the
shape OF "fake" stories "have often
been paralleled within the personal
knowledge of the writer" We are
glad to have the acknowledgement.
1t would perhaps have been more
honest to have made it many
months ago. Yet, when we remark
his observations on the subject OF
bringing a lawyer to attend to the
ilibustering expedition, and the
kind of fight he might make the
absurdity of the whole thing be-
comes apparent.

Colonel Mclean, us. Marines, has
found time to condense-the Star

seems carefully selected with view
to its misinterpretation. We re
frain from further comment.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-08-20

What, even more than money, is
needed to accomplish this is energy.
Mr.. Thurston has never been sue
cessful in any of his public under
takings, but we hope that this in
stance will be the exception to the
rule, and that he will succeed in
stirring up the easy-going sleepy
community to the difficult task of
doing"

According to the various news

how would the OK. Marshal and most

new significance.

That is really the funniest kind OF
commercial idea that has ever come
to our notice. Mr.. Jones is stock
broker. He advertises himself as
such. Yet, if stocks are low he re-
fuses to "quote" prices, presumably
for fear OF offending the stock
holders.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-08-20

We always mean to give the devil
his due, nothing mean about us, so
we are led to say that Circuit Judge
Kalua saw the propriety Of resign
ing the Office he had disgraced, but
reconsidered this very proper step
because the manager of the Wal
luku Sugar Company told him that
his resignation would be looked
upon as confession of guilt, as
though there could be any doubt of
that. The manager probably does
not care to layspiping for new man.
