Put ring around the word
= opportunity the occasion
makes it. Never in the history
of mercantile transactions in
Honolulu have the people had
such a golden opportunity to
select a lamp as to-day. A man
ufacturer who had more than he
knew what to do with, more
than he had space to put them,
wrote us of his troubles. We
had none of our own so we lis
tened to him. Our stock of
lamps is the result of his tale Of
woe and you get the benefit.
A black lamp that will give
a bright light is not fad, but
a style that will remain until
"New Hawaii shall become old.
Being sombre in color they fur
nish with any decorations you
may have in your room and any
color shade that suits your fancy
will look well on the lamp.
For dinner table nothing
furnishes better than black BAN
quet lamps. We have them, not
cumbersome, but Of a height
that will beautify rather than
detract from the other features.
We have piano lamps, hall
lamps, boudoir lamps and every
other character of lamp that ever
was made. The prices are so
low that it would injure our
business to put them III this
column.

Burned to Death.

An old native woman living at
Waialae, was burned to death this
morning. Particulars SO far re-
ceived at the Station House indicate
that the deceased has been bed
ridden for long time, and that she
was burning some incense close to
her bed. The lamp presumably
capsized and her bed, clothes set on
fire. Being alone and unable to
move the unfortunate woman perish
ed, Deputy-Marshal Hitchcock went
to Waialae as soon as the informa-
ton was received.

The Ex-Conspirators

The Underwood Morrow cases
were finally disposed of in the Dis
trict Court to-day-at least as far as
that court is concerned
1t will be remembered that Pat
Curtis OF the famous yacht Spray
had the two men arrested on a
charge Of carrying a weapon, assault
with deadly weapon in regard to
Morrow, and for being an accessory
in regard to CDR" Underwood.
The two would-be flibusters in
their turn had Pat arrested for lar
ceny of the 'Spray. Pat, however,
was acquitted by Judge Wilcox.
To-day the original cases against
Morrow were dropped by the prose-
cution and charge OF assault with
weapon preferred. Underwood
was held as an accessory.
Judge Wilcox found both men
guilty and sentenced Morrow to i'm
prisonment at hard labor and to
pay fine Of $50. Underwood was
sentenced to one months imprison-
ment and to pay a fine of $25. APP
peals we're noted in both cases.
Humphreys assisted the prosecu-
ton, Creighton and Correa for the
defense.

DRASTIC DELIVERY.

One of the soundest civic publica-
tons in the country, as it is profound
touching American economies, is Cum
tins Magazine. OF the Chicago plat
form it delivers itself of the follow
ing sweeping estimate, which is no less
extreme than pointed. 1t says that
''the platform adopted by the Demo-
cratic convention at Chicago is the
very embodiment of economic heresy,
fiscal insanity and national disgrace.
Before the convention met, Mr.. Whit
ney said the condition was analogous
to that Of 1860. The character of the
convention has justified Mr.. Whitneys
remark. Its platform records the re-
suit of its ignorant, reckless malignity
towards existing institutions, vested
rights, industrial prosperity and ma
tienal integrity. 1t declares for free
coinage of silver, government fat paper
money. free trade and an income tax
1t would be difficult 70 construct plat
form more thoroughly charged with
the elements of national disaster. go
In adopting free silver, free trade,
fiat paper money platform and Popu
list candidate for president, the Chi
cago convention has made the Demo
cratic party again the party of revolu-
ticn. At first sight it looks like an
uprising of the masses in the south and
west for fiscal principle. Indeed,
some have endeavored to explain this
extraordinary departure on the theory
that 1.-The east has ignored the growing
significance of the silver question while
the south and west have been diligently
studying it, and are, therefore, much
better informed upon the subject
Hence, their speeches and literature
have created u more widespread con-
YictiOn among the people"
Intensity and unanimity of convic-
ton are not necessary evidence either
of correct information or of good think
ing; it is too frequently but the ex-
preston of Uniformed fanaticiSm. On
questions of great social, political and
religious importance the most ignorant
nations are usually the most unani-
nous Their unanimity of conviction
is frequently propOrtionate to their lack
of knowledge upon the subject.
Will anyone seriously pretend that the
of the free silver opinion in
the southern states is the result of well
informed conviction? The south is
solid now for silver as it has heretofore
been for Democracy. But everybody
knows its sohdity is due not TO its po-
litical intelligence, but rather to the
density of its ignorance and the inten-
sity of its prejudice.

THE TARIFF DIFFERENCES.

A subscriber wants to know the dates
on which the Mckinley tariff and the
Wilson tariff. respectively, went into
operation and the result in the way of
revenue The Eagle published the
dates and figures only last week, but
we will give them again in different
and maybe more lucid way:
The tariff law of 1880, known as the
Mckinley law, went into operation Oc-
tOber 1 of that year, excepting that
paragraph 143, which imposed duty
of two and two-tenths cents per pound
on tin plate, was not made operative
until July /, 1891. and that section 241
declared that ''the provisions of this
act providing for the admission OF i'm
ported sugars and molasSeS and for
the payment of sugar bountieS shall
not take effect until April 1, 1891"
The law now in force. known as the
Wilson tariff law, was enacted July 3,
1894.
From June so. 1890, TO June so. 1891.
receipts of duties on imports was S2l9,-
522 POS. For the same period of 1891
o. they were s177.452.264. For 1893
they were S203.355,O17. These COM
prise the Mckinley years.
Receipts from the same sources dur
ing the fiscal year 1894 were S131.SIS,-
$50, and fer 1895 they were S152. 49,
6l1. These figures are givei on page
10 Of the statistical abstract of the
United States for 1895, issued by
authority Of the secretary Of the treas
ury. The official report for the year
ending June so, 1896. is not Yet pub
liSAed. but the treasury financial tables,
page IA. issued by the secretary,
report receipts from tariff duties for
the eleven months ending May -, 1896.
at SI49. $50. So: at this rate the income
from tariffs for 1896 will vary very
slightly from that Of 1895
