Timely Topics
March n, 1895.

Is Hawaii to be without a
cable through the action of the
United State Congress, or will
the people here awake from
their sleepy ideas and tell I'm
Gle Sam to do something or
let England have Necker Island
and 60 ahead with the work.
Hawaii is as much in need of a
cable as any place on the globe
and other governments need
the cable to Hawaii as much as !
we do. Why then should the
government that feels a fatherly
interest in country stand in
the way of its development.
Suppose the manufacturers
of the Avery Plantation lmple-
ments would refuse to send
them to this country would it
be considered a square deal?
The planters on Hawaii who
are using these different impIe-
ments are well satisfied with
them and are willing to recon-
mend them to other managers.
They are coming more and more
into general use; in another
year there will not be a planta-
ton on the Islands that will
not use them. The following
letters from such prominent
managers should be convinc-
ing proof Of their superiority:
OSoMEA SUGAR COMPANY,
PAPAIKoU, HAWAII, Feb. rs, 1881
Mr.. JoHN A. SCOTT, Wainaku, Hawaii.
DEAR SIR:-The Onomea Sugar
Company has now in use three OF
the Stubble Diggers.
think these machines are indis-
pensable for the proper cultivation
OF rattoons.
We have never had an implement
that would so thoroughly loosen the
earth around the stools. and put the
soil in such condition that the air,
moisture and fertilizer would so
readily find access to the fine roots
Of the cane and the. soil around
them.
am glad 10 testify to the merits
of these tools. The Sugar Land
Disc Cultivators arrived too late for
much use in the cultivation of the
last young plant aud rattoons, but
believe they will prove to be very
useful aud labor-saving implements
in districts where cane is raised
without irrigation.
Yours truly.

E. r. HENDRY, ESQ, Hawaiian Hard
ware Company.
DEAR SIR:-In answer to your let
ter inquiring about the Avery Stub
BILE Digger and Fertilizer Distribu-
tor, would say that the fact that
We have just received the second
Stubble Digger speaks for itself.
We have dug over four hundred
acres OF rattoon stools and consider
it will be great benefit.
The Fertilizer Distributor is a
good thing and has effected a mate
rial saving OF labor in the applica-
ton OF Fertilizer and applies it bet
ter than can be done by baud.
These machines are very simple
aud well constructed and we have
had no trouble with the working OF
them and we consider them one OF
the most useful labor saving ma
chimes that can be used on planta-
! ton. Yours Truly,

ALLEN w. Thurman, son of til

Allen W. Thurman, son of the
'old Roman" Allen G. Thurman,
who has been preaching free sill

check and repel Che advancing col

he was ingloriously beaten in his
own home, by the election of an
anti-silver delegation to the State
convention. A few more such po-

vince young Allen, that while he

a PRESIDENTIAL. BOOMLEr
COLLAPSED.

1t seems to be a difficult matter
to correctly "size up" Ex.Secreta-
ry Whitney on the all absorbing
silver question. When he returned
from Europe, because he happened
to express the opinion that bimetal-
lism was growing in favor in that
country and the time was not far
distant when the nations of CONT
mental Europe would be willing to
submit the matter to the arbitra.
ment of an international confer
ence, this expression was speedily
seized upon by the Populists and
so-called Democratic 16 to l silver
enthusiasts and straightway they
started an embryotic presidential
boom in favor of Mr.. Whitney.
But having since learned that
he is only bimetallist-pure and
simple-they have "dropped him
like hot cakes from the griddle''
and the Whitney "boomlet" has
collapsed about as suddenly as it
sprang into existence.

IT loyalty to the free coinage OF

BLACKBURN WILL NOT Sue
CEED HIMSELF.

1t must be a source of humllla-
ton 20 Senator Joe Blackburn,
that having "stumped" the entire
State of Kentucky in the attempt
TO disseminate the free silver
heresy, his herculean labors have
been more than neutralizea by on
" three speeches Of Secretary
Carlisle, as is evidenced by his de-
feat in his own district and the
refusal of the State convention to
incorporate a free silver plank in
it's platform. Senator Blackburn
will not succeed himself. His IN.
wise advocacy Of free silver and
denunciation of Cleveland and
Carlisle has determined the sena-
atorial succession in advance, so
far as he is individually concern.
ed. The Senatorial mantle, soon
to be discarded by him, will adorn
the person of Secretary Carlisle,
if be desires the position again.
1t not, the Legislature will prob
ably select as his successor, either
General Buckner or Elk Governor
McCIeary. Senator Blackburn is
a genial companion, atfable gen
tleman and in every way entitled to
the large measure of personal pop
ularity which he has enjoyed, but
he never was and never will be a
statesman. When he entered the
lists against such men as Carlisle,
Buckner, McCreary and Lindsay,
it was as Il contest between a Lii.
liputian and Titans and his defeat
was inevitable.

The "sound money" campaign
is conducted on its merits. These
consist, as the journals state, on
the "sinews of war; furnished by
Wall street. That is very strong
indication of who expects to be
benefited by the gold standard.
1t is evidently not the wage earn
ers and toilers.-Shreveport Times.
Ii Wall street is furnishing the
"sincws of war" for the "sound
money" campaign, which we deny
and challenge production of the
least scintilla of proof to sustain
such an assertion, yet if it were
an actual fact, we can readily i'm
agine that the silver barOns of the
West will contribute to the silver
campaign fund, as they are the
only ones in interest or to he ben.
Gifted by the adoption of free
coinage. 1t will certainly be of
no benefit or advantage to the
people collectively. Is there any
good reason, why, because there
is an overproduction of silver,
that governmental aid should be
invoked to stimulate the price of
this article, any more than it should
be expected or required to enact
such legislation as would have a
tendency to enhance the price of
cotton and wheat, because the sup.
ply is in excess of the demand and
these staple articles are, there.
