months Old.
Spring lovely spring, the season that We
are all so ready to embrace, is certainly acting
very capriciously and ccquetti$hly in 1896.
Many thought that with st. Patrick's Day,
winter would hid adieu ami give place to that
most acceptable of all seasons, but at this
date winter. ~ lis chilling temperature and
covering ol htaull;u snow, speaks to Us in Il
way that sHN Ii l.. 10th 10 leave us. The scene
is very beautiful the hills and valleys, the
woods and dalcs covered with heaven ;
purity-but the poor farmer, who possibly
forgets that Providence rules the snow as
well as his crops, is getting uneasy because
his ground is not being tir1kCn or put IN
condition to receive the seed. and methinks /
hear him sing to himself, or ut least it is
about the frame of mind he is in:
The farmer he thinks that the winter should
bc gone,
He thinks that the sued should he all half
grown.
nut the snow falls on.
He walks to the field, and iii IL sad tone
Observes that he wishes the seed was Sown,
And then with sigh he will give loud moan,
While the snow falls on.
There is very little news to relate. Colds
and coughs are prevalent and the order Of the
day.
BY the way, Mr.. 4.,lisor, 1 heard quite a
llatteriug Compliment on your paper recently

UNDER the leadership of Rev.
Mr.. Brine, Honolulu is doing
what little. it can to alleviate the
sufferings of the Armenians. 1t is
very little that we can do, but that
small pittance Of assistance shows
the direction of the sympathies of
many citizens of the Republic, and
every little helps. It is to be
hoped that the nucleus obtained
from the collection Sunday will be
largely increased before the sailing
of the steamer on Wednesday. Now
that this movement has once been
started it ought to be taken up by
the people on the other islands.
Osmer Abbott may well be classed
as one of the pioneers in stirring
an interest in Armenia, and we
trust that he, with others, may
renew their efforts to make the
expression of sympathy from Ha-
wall a most liberal one.

THE State of New York, with all
it's political corruption, can be
given credit for having done one act
in the interests of good politics. In
the early part of this month Bat
Shea, a ward heller in the city of
Troy, died in the electric chair for
the murder of John Ross. During
an election some two years ago
Shea and his compatriots were en-
gagged in carrying" several wards
of the city by manipulating a crowd
of repeaters. Ross and his brother
attempted to prevent the work of
corruption, and the former was
shot and killed in a scrimmage at
the polls. 1t would be good
thing for the United States if more
Bat Sheas received their just dues.
Ward heelers would think twice
before they began active operations.

by the law. While we cannot state
at this time the comparative re-
turns such a law would give in this
country, the percentage OF profit is
a good one and we venture to state
THAI our Government could realize
enough to build two or three roads
for Hilo. Let the opium advocates
be consistent. The same argu-
ments they advance for opium will
hold good for the liquor. They
want money for public works.
Here is an opportunity, and they
will not be obliged to suffer politi
cal qualification in order to i'm
prove it. Let them, if possible,
come off their hobby horses and
call to mind the fact that there is
more than one way for the Govern
ment to increase it's revenue for
public works.

MONDAY. FEBRUARY "a, 1896.

SENATOR MCCANDLEss, who shows
a disposition to favor the opium
bill, holds his position in the
Senate by virtue of the withdrawal
of Hon. P. c.. Jones in his favor.
Mr.. Jones does not, and never has
favored any move toward the Ii
censing of opium. In fact he is
one of the strongest opponents of
any such measure. While Senator
McCandless has no strings tied to
him and is perhaps under no per-
sonal obligations to change his
private opinions to fit those OF the
man whose. place he took, at the
same time stand for the opium
bill will place him in a rather I'M
fortunate position. Mr.. Jones con-
stituents are now Mr.. McCandless'
constituents, and we are very posi-
tive that the latter could not Sc
cure a seat in the Senate as an
opium candidate. AS a politician,
Senator McCandless must perforce
have some consideration for the
opinions of his constituents. Times
have not changed to such an ex-
tent since the monarchy died that
the people have forgotten what
they were hallntinp for

Imagination and Truth.

Imagination has a lot to do with
some peoples purchases. For in
stance, in buying beer they ina CINE
that one beer is the same as another.
They might as well imagine that all
persons are exactly alike; that would
not change the truth any. To put it
briefly, you had better let some one
else do the imagining; see to it that
you get the best and purest and in
that way your health will not be apt
to suffer. You will make no mistake
by drinking Seattle beer, which can
be had at the Criterion saloon.

ANNIE MAY ABBOTT, the Georgia
magnet who passed through
Honolulu recently, is amusing
herself with the strong men of
China and Japan. japanese wres-
tiers, whose strength is celebrated
the world over, were unable to
raise Miss Abbott from the floor
and she neutralizes their strongest
efforts to lift the lightest objects
from a table. The japanese claim
she has hypnotic power, while the
Chinese consider her to be in league
with the devil. Possibly Commits
sioner Marsden might give them a
few points if they were anxious to
discover the secret.

ANOTHER WAY OF MAKING MONEY.

The advocates of the opium bill,
who have displayed such marked
solicitude for the revenue of the
country, will doubtless be interest
ed In the results of the South Caro-
lima dispensary law as shown in
the recent report of the State
Liquor Commission to the Gov
ernor. Various unauthorized state
ments of the workings of this law
have been made public from time
to time, but this is the first COM
plete and authentic review that has
been made.
The report covers a period of
eleven months between February
1 and December 81, 1895. With
in that time the State Dispenser
shows that the local dispensaries
sold liquor to the value of $1,076,-
963 95, on which the towns and
counties netted a profit of $780,
131 %. The profits to the State
itself were 1888 ,467-77 on $685.
O55 Sc worth of sales made to the
local dispensaries. An additional
outstanding profit of $25, 81 IS is
claimed for the State, making a
total profit to the State for the
eleven months of $159,O39 81. The
profits of the towns and counties
on retail sales were almost exactly
10 per cent, while the States
profits on wholesale dealings were
about Is per cent. The total
profits to the State since the dis
pensary system went into opera
ton, July /, 1893, to December 81,
1895, period of two and a half
years, are placed at $243,816 81, an
average of a little less than $780,
600 a year.
The report has nothing to say on
whether or no the new law has
wrought any change in the dis
orders and crimes growing out Of
the use of liquor. The State Liquor
Commissioner makes complaint
that he has not proper facilities for
filling orders, which the liquor men
claim is an evidence that the new
law has not diminished the amount
of liquor consumed. While this
complaint may not show that there
is less drinking, on the other hand
it does not prove that there is more.
In fact, the law has not been in
force long enough to draw any cor
rect conclusions on either of these
points, and the commissioner does
well to fight shy of conjectures. AS
the machinery of the law has i'm
proved with use, however, the Illicit
sale of liquor has been largely
Thus one point
Of the moralist has been
gained. For the other features
the people can afford to await the
verdict which time and proper
will give.

ar attention of our opium friends

To-day will be the last opportunity to
hear those charming Alpine singers at
Riverton Park. The character of the
music is new here and the harmony is
something far above the ordinary. Swiss
music has about it wild charm hardly
equalled by that Of any other nation, a
character as distinct as the negro melodies
of the South. Perhaps the most delight
full piece is that in which one OF the lady
singers does the nightingale song from
the lsafy shades of the grove 1t is very
effective. The national dance is well
worth seeing.
A number of parties will visit the park
today. Besides the choir there is de-
l1ghtful sail to be obtained on the river
and the children will be amused with
the squirrels and he.merry- go-round.
