A Significant Departure.

With the departure of another year
when a review is made of the condit-
ion of affairs, it is only right that
some thought be given to the physical
body which enables everyone to bat
tie with life's problem and figure for
themselves the profit or loss on the
trial balance sheet. Though the bank
account may be large and each ones
material gain be great, it would not
be surprising if it suddenly dawns
upon many that good health has been
greatly Impoverished by the low
condition of the blood. 1t is in this
state that the Tactic acid in the vital
fluid attacks the ferrous tissues, par
ticularly the joints, making known
the local manifestations OF rheuma-
tism. Thousands of people have
found in Hoods Sarsaparilla the
great blood purifier, positive and
permanent cure for rheumatism.

JUST WHAT
Ne EXPECTED

That extra IS per cent. discount last
week hunted up the judicious buyers and
there was a decided movement in our
stock.
Now, it was not the PRICES alone
that sold these goods, it was the factor
that caused buyers to look at them, to
examine into the durability and finish,
when that was done, then the prices did
the rest.
We claim that we are always IS per
cent. lower than any other house in Homo
lulu. Don't take our word for it; convince
yourself by examining our STOCK and
PRICES. You will find our stock the
LARGEST and as we say our prices the
LOWEST.

DEMOCEiCY'S HOPE

There Is such thing as triumph in de-
feat. When a political party fights for
established principles and goes down
with its untarnished principles still in
scribed on its banner, II does not fail.
because principle never fails. and it does
not lose its organization because so long
rs its principles live. it is easy to rally
forces about the standard for another
light But when principle is surrendered
TO expediency for the simple purpose of
temporary success. and the party goes
down. as it deserves to go down, then
there is failure. indeed The Democratic
party, thanks TO the Chicago Conven-
ton. stands before the country to-day not
only defeated but discIedited.
In the hope of getting possession of
the Government for their own selfish pur-
poses. the party was betrayed by its
leaders into an abandonment Of its prin-
ciples and staked its fortunes upon the
support of free silver and other Popu-
hstic measures. with a view TO capturing
the dissatisfied masses Of the country.
II was a political trick by which the
grand old party was involved with Popu-
Iism.
Had tho Democratic party in convcn-
ton assembled. made a fight for its we'll
established and sacred tenets. it would
have had. II not a better, at least
worthicr hcIa OF success-the path Of
duty is the Iath Of safety. But even II
the party had failed Of success. 1t would
Lave preserved its integrity and its or
ganization. and would today stand be-
fore the world as the honorable repre-
sentative Of those great principles with
which its nature has always been asso-
ciated.
The dismal failure OF its excursion into
tho domain Of Populism will teach De-
mocracy d lesson which. let us hope. It
Will never forget. and let us also earn
ostly hope that il will return to It's old
Zines purged Of every faint gotten from
IT'S unnatural association. Then will it be
entitled 10 and win receive the fresh
support OF tens Of thousands Of loyal
Democrats who knew and loved the
party too well to take part in its immo-
Ia,ion to the Moloch OF populsIn.
In Virginia the party must not only
purge itself OF Popnlism. but must also
set its face against dishonest elections
and stand for pure government. II this
shall be done. and We believe that II
will be done. the party will be not wore'
but better for its severe chastisemenI

These things we say. have been deter

immediate re-estabiishmcnt OF confidence.
Ours is the greatest country on the face

growth, save unwise and unjust legsla-
ton. and the agitation OF questions. which
shake the faith OF business men in our
national integrity. With confidence re-
stored capital viii at once seek invest
ment, and our free silver friends will
be amazed to find that there is no scar
city Of money for any legitimate purpose.
We believe that business will now start

be established; that old industries will
work on fun time; that labor VIII find

country will soon enter upon a period ~

EIcu,roND,s OPPORTUNITY.

Now that the election is over. and that
the credit of the nation is safe, every
business man feels like bracing up and
the rewards which this condition must
surely bring. For the past several years
the country has been harassed by the
camor for free silver, and it went from
bad to worse until confidence was shat
tered and business demoraiized. Gold was
boarded, capital was tied up. and as a
consequence no new industries were es-
tabished. and those already in existence
languished. Every man-business man.
professional man. laborer-has felt the
stress Of such a condition, and we have
had a period necessarily Of hard times
almost unprecedented. The advocates of
free silver saw their opportunity, and
succeed IN convincing a large number
of people that the so-called demone-
tzation OF silver was responsible for the
trouble. when in point Of fact It was the
agitation Of this very question that had
brought distress 10 the nation.
And thus II went on until the question
came 10 on issue, and the fight was made.
So many people had become infatuated
with this craze. that there could have
been no peace in the nation. until 1t was
settled. But. thanks 10 the honestyg and
good sense Of the American people, it
has bean settled. and finally settled. in
the interest OF sound money and good
business principles. and the nation will
now have a rest from this distressful
agitation. 1t has been determined that
our monetary standard. VIII. n is the rec
oenized standard Ct the world. shan not
be changed. II has been settled that tho
credit OF our Government shah be MAIN
tanned. II has been settled that all OBJ
legations. both OF a public and private
character. shall be redeemed In honest
