TWO STATESMEN.

II is surprising that rs. Il. b." should
fix upon Governor Altgeld and Senator
Tillman as undesirable political com
pany." 1t is true that these gentlemen
have been abused, ridiculed and ma
ligned by a section of the press in the
United States. 1t is true that a class
denominates them anarchists. But
they are idolized by their large and re-
spectacle constituencies and command
the admiration and enjoy the confid-
ence of very large proportion of the
voting population of the United States.
\ resume of the record of Mr.. Tillman
was given in this paper a few weeks
B.'that the senator, while chief eX-
ecutive of his state, introduced many
striking reforms. One of these was
abolition of the saloon. The rum shop
was replaced with the dispensary sys-
tenn. No man, not excepting the great
est of revivalists and blue ribbon adj
vocates has ever done more in the
United States for the cause of temper
ance than Mr.. Tillman. To him also
is due model and equitable method
of taxation in his state. He effected
an assessment and levy change in the
face of intense opposition from the
corporations and large property hold
ers. Further. Mr.. Tillman gave heed
to educational demands and made vast
improvement in the state system, af-
fording both free normal and agricul-
tural instruction. Governor Altgeld
has not so high character. in that he
stained his record by pardoning the
Chicago anarchists. However, there
are many who believe honestly that
the prisoners released were to a con-
siderable extent the victims of police
conspiracy and community prejudice.
Altgeld has driven the machine ele-
ment out of Illinois politics and has
treasury by scoundrels who strike
back as best they can. He is a friend
of the schools and pronounced tax
reformer. There might be too much
of Altgeldism or Tillmansm in an adj
ministration by Mr.. Bryan, but as in
| divduals they should be offensive to
no one friendly to honest and moral
| government, to rule in the interest of
the whole people. Carter Harrison
was elected mayor OF Chicago with
every paper of that city violently
against him. They We're all against
Altgeld when he ran for Governor
They are all against Tillman, but the
majority of the papers of Tillman's
state do not speak lily of him and the
people of his commonwealth cannot
honor him too much.

The Star did not say that Mr.. f. w.
Damon sent the twenty-siX Chinese
boys to Punahou Preparatory, neither
did the paper state that there was dis
elimination against the race at the
High School The account of the af-
fair was clear enough to those who
might wish 20 understand it. 1t was
perhaps well, however, for the High
School management to state its posi-
ton.

COFFEE ON OAHU.

Inspection of the Waianae Sugar
Company's coffee plantation was cX-
actly what Mr.. b. f. Dillingham; called
an object lesson. \ visit will convince
anyone that this island, to the limit of
the area of suitable lands, need be sec
ond to none in the group in production
of the staple. BY the foresight and
encouragement of Judge Widemann
and Manager Ahrens, complete sue
cess has been scored. What can be
done in the highlands of Waianae, can
certainly be done in each of the hun
dred or more valleys of Oahu. IF in
vestigation is made here, either before
or after seeing tracts on other islands,
the charm of the effectiveness of dis
tant fields will have only its natural
force or weight The Star would not
detract from the advantages OF O!aa,
Puma, Kau, Hamallua, Maui and would
only wish to see them gain constantly,
but it is the fact that Oahu can show
results which gives it Al coffee rank.

people do not actually comply with the
outward service which religion de-

scientiously do so, and help to sup
port the good work by their purse.

SURE TO WIN.

The people recognize and appreciate
real merit. That is why Hoods Sar-
saparilla has the largest sales in the
world. Merit in medicine means the
power to cure. Hoods Sarsaparilla
cures-absolutely, permanently cures,
1t is the One True Blood Purifier. It's
superior merit is an established fact,
and merit wins.

Ripans
TabuleS

Mr.. L. A. Rocher is a farmer re-
siding about three miles out of
Colon, n. c. His home is some
what in the back woods. In an
interview with Mr.. S. T. Godfrey,
a correspond mt of the Telegram
and Sunday Times, Mr.. Rocher
on the 18th of June, 1895, said:
II am 81 years of age, and until
1 was nigh onto fifty years old,
l was always well and peart,
then for long while and until
last February, 1 suffered with
indigestion and could not eat
anything hardly at all. MY
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
icine. I want you to tell every
body how got cured, for it is a
blessing to humanity.
(Signed) L. A. ROCHER.

The members of the Cadmean circle were as- sisted in receiving their guests by the presidents of the various clubs and the aggregation of progressive women as sembled yesterday afternoon was suf- ficiently attractive to disarm the criti- cism of the most conservative citizen. Mrs. Smiths home was adorned with stately palms and vases of roses, and be- hind screen of palms in the beautiful hall an excellent orchestra rendered ad mirable selections during the hours of the reception. Mrs. James A. Going, president of the Cadmean circle, stood In the drawing room to receive the guests, and scattered in different parts of the home were the members of the Cadmean circle, each one anxious to contribute to- wards the success and pleasure of the re- ception. In the dining room the guests were served with ices and cakes, and the table was decorated with pink embroid- cries, vases filled with glorious pink roses and pink peoples, and silver candelabra held pink candles. The gathering to- gether of the various literary clubs of Birmingham and suburbs is helpful in every way, and establishes bond or sympathy and interest between the diff ferent organizations, which will certainly result in good
