WHAT THE ALLIANCE is DOING

That was a lucky day for this coun-
try when the people, a large number
of them at least, discovered that the
tariff and such sugar coating as the
monopolists saw f5 TO send out with it,
we're not the leading issues, but that
the money question was and is the
great problem to be solved. Money Is
the business blood Of the nation, Of the
world.
The Alliance, It's press and its lee
turers, have opened the way to the
fountain Of knowledge, and the
masses, and even statesmen, have been
aroused. This will cause the next
great political battle to be fought al
most entirely on real, on live issues.
THIS i5 only part OF what the Alliance
has done, and the good work Ia going
right on. Is your Alliance alive? Are
you willing to let it die? just as well
stop all the schools as to stop this
fraternal educatiCneI organization.

AS TRUE AS GOSPEL.

says:
"a majority of the voters of the
United States favor the free coinage of
silver, but if this maj rrlty is kept d.
vided nothing can ever beaccompllshed.
Unity is the watchword. Any man
who is opposed to the uniting Of all

\ WATER SOCIETY.

Three wagonettes containing about
thirty Hawaiian women dressed in
pink holokus were about town this
morning. The vehicles were decorated
as were also the occupants. On the
first wagonette was hung out flag
with the following words on it: "Hui-
piwai a ma LAM Ewalu," (The Water
Sprinkling Society of the Eighth
Heaven, or Alii.) After driving about
the town for a couple of hours the
party drove to Kaumal<apili, where a
grand luau was held
The hui had wafer sprinkling the
other day, and the luau is the wind-up,
all in celebration of Liluokalani's
birthday. The .sprinkling was done
some time ago with buckets of water
over the persons of the celebrants.

The Hilo ultras weakened The tabu
Sunday band concert, with it's free
buses and Supreme Court defense fund
was indefinitely postponed. At a
slight sacrifice of their own absurd
dignity, the handful of Hilo howlers
have done the wsest thing they ever
did. Now this hui will cease attempt
at dictation and quit its buster. The
result will be mutually beneficial. In
future common sense should rule at
both ends. Let there be no more de-
fiance of the authorities by way of
pure bluff" There has never been
any reason why Hilo should quarrel at
the Government or Honolulu except
ing that demagogues melted to differ
ence. This class seems now about to
take a back seat and give the reins
to men of progressive and sensible
ideas.

The Star has adopted what it con-

readers on the campaign effect upon
business in the United States. This is
presentation of the summaries of the

question. Those desiring to reach an
entirely fair and correct decision
should remember that a presidential

Some of the critics of Sir Cecil
Rhodes will now md themselves with
a large quantity of their standing
ground eliminated. 1t is quite appar-
ent that he had reasons other than dis
like of the smell of powder for not
accompanying DR.. Jim in the march
toward Johannesburg. On the field
against the savage Matabele the form
err premier of South Africa has peri
ormed prodigies of valor. Further, he
has neatly effected peace where the
bloodiest war seemed interminable and
the natives hail him as the greatest of
white chiefs. The Government of the
Transvaal can do little less than ac-
knowledge the signal value of his SER
vices. After all is known it will be
plain that the admirers of Mr.. Rhodes
have not been mistaken in estimating
his ability and character.

By the Albert which arriv-
ed a few days ago we received
1913 Quincy Cleanable Refri-
gerators, ranging in size from
the small household ice box to
that used in grocery store.
1t was a large invoice-not
consigned, but bought out
right. These refrigerators
and ice boxes have nine points
of excellence, to wit:
Cleanliness, free circulation;
economy in the use of ice;
condensation and dry air; low
average temperature; freedom
from condensation on the inner
walls; freedom from damage
by the use of ice picks; proper
location of drip pipe, and long
life. These points are found
only in the Quincy Cleanable.
Now for the reason for the
large purchase, There are
1913 persons in Honolulu who
need refrigerators, many of
them have old ones. We pro-
pose leasing these refrigera-
tors on the following term:
The selling prices of the article
is divided by six; when the
refrigerator is delivered one
sixth of the price is paid in
cash and monthly thereafter
in equal payments until the
entire amount is paid. If be-
fore the expiration of the six
months, the lessee wishes to
pay off the balance he will be
entitled to a discount of five
per cent. on amount unpaid. If
a customer wants to buy out
right for cash, he gets five per
cent discount on the entire
amount.
The Quincy Cleanable can
be had only of US.

Mr.. L. A. Rocher is farmer re-

Colon, N. c. His home is some
what in the back woods. In an
interview with Mr.. S. T. Godfrey,
a correspondent of the Telegram
and Sunday Times, Mr.. Rocher
on the 18th of June, 1895, said:
Il am 81 years of age, and until
was nigh onto fifty years old,
was always well and peart,
then for a long while and until
last February, 1 suffered with
indigestion and could not eat
anything hardly at all. NV
daughter, who lives in the city,
sent me some of Ripans Tabules,
told me how to take them, and
and they have completely cured
me- My wife is now troubled
with the same complaint, and
has written daughter to send
some more of Mr.. Ripan's med
lcine. L want you to tell every
body how 1 got cured, for it is a
blessing to humanity.
