a most serious manner during
the late epidemic of what vital
Importance pure water is to all
human beings. While our me-
dical men have differed in OPT
Mon in regard to the nature
and treatment of the epidemic
which now fortunately is ended,
there has only been one opinion
in regard to the imperative
necessity of having an am
pie supply of pure water
for all purposes. In Homo
lulu the water supply is now
plentiful both for drinking pur-
poses and for irrigation. The
same cannot be said for the
country districts. In many
places it is necessary for the in
habitants to carefully save rain
water in tanks especially where
artesian wells are impossible.
1t has been great help to
people living in the country
that we have introduced the
celebrated Aermotor in these
islands. Many people have
availed themselves of the golden
opportunity to purchase one of
our galvanized Aermotors, and
they have in all instances ex-
pressed themselves as highly
satisfied with the bargain.
The Aermotor is especially
appreciated because it runs in
the lightest wind. Being geared
back three to one, it starts with
only a third Of the load that the
ordinary mill has to contend
with. This enables it to start
and run in zephyr so light
that all competitors stand idly
by Again, its lightweight and
perfect bearing enable it to face
up to and get the full benefit of
the breeze. The wheel is so
light and it's efficiency so great
that it is an absolute calm in
deed which induces it to stand
still.
The lightweight of the Aer-
motor is strong point in it's
favor. The weight affects the
cost of transportation; the ease
of handling and erection; the
facility of turning on the tower
to face the wind for work; the
regulation for safety in high
wind; the recovery of working
position when danger is past;
the sagging Of the tower out Of
shape; the vibration and break
ing Of the tower in a storm
and consequently the weight.
strength and cost of tower and
foundations. The Aermotor
only weighs about two-fifths as
much as the other mills which
do the same work. The great
in weight is in part
made possible by the use of
steel, malleable iron, and the
very best materials throughout,
and explains why so excellent
piece of work can be turned out
at so low a price.
We invite farmers and others
who have use for an Aermotor
to call in at our stores, or write

The Governor OF Georgia, a Mr..
Atkinson, said at the opening OF the
Atlanta Exposition:
''Nor does an emancipated white
serf or peasant in the white couu-
tries of the world have the same
protection for life, liberty and pro-
perty, nor the same opportunities
for the pursuit of happiness as are
afforded the negro in tbs States,
where he was once slave" OF the
equality OF the negro with the
whites he says: "God never tried to
make him the equal OF the white"

rule, the prevention from exercising
the ballot, the separate schools and
churches, and the general social os-
tracism from railway cars, hotels,
theatres and private society Do
any of those occur in Russia, Hun
gary, Bulgaria, Roumania or else
where serfs have been emapcipated,

The Government is losing the
valuable services OF Mr.. Hitchcock
by holding him here in his endeavors
to justify the arrest of innocent and
independent foreigners. If the men
arrested were guilty of violating the
laws of this country, they ought to
have been tried according to law as
the treaties require, and if found
guilty punished. To try to excuse
the arbitrary and illegal arrest and
imprisonment of them, is ridiculous,
and it is pity that the valuable
time of the "holy terror" should be
used for such purpose. BY the
way, isn't he now 'holy terror" to
