STUMBLE DIGGERS, SHAY
ERS AND CANE Gull
TlVATORS.

We want to call attention
for a few days to three ma
chimes suitable for sugar land
cultivation.
First-Avery's "MALLON"
STUBBLE DIGGER, the peer of
all sugar land implements. The
superiority of this machine
over all similar ones is evil
denced by the fact that until
this season the manufacturers
have been unable to supply
the demand for them. Their
features of absolute merit are
as follows:
(a)-Metal wheels with re-
movable hubs.
(b)-Solid steel teeth.
(c)-Great strength with
lightness of draft.
(d)-lmproved flanges with
movable teeth.
Avery's" MALLON" IMPROV-
ED STUMBLE SHAVER. This
has lately been greatly i'm
proved and now runs on four
wheels in the furrow. The
knives can be raised or lower
ed with ease, with one lever,
without stopping the team.
Can be regulated to shave at
any depth. The knives are
protected by shields, so that it
is impossible for the mules to
be cut by them. There is no
weight on the mules necks.
This Shaver can be turned as
short as a cart and is light
draft for two mules.
Third-Avery'S IMPROVED
"MALLON" CANE CULTIVA-
TOR. This implement is used
in the culture of both corn and
cane from the first drifting of
the crop, through the entire
cultivating and Laying by"
season. Is simple in con-
Struction, strong, durable, light
draft, easily operated and
understood. 1t has the re-
volving sectional discs, which
work on each side of the row,
thoroughly cutting and pull
verizing the soil. The desired
quantity of dirt thrown to the
plant is regulated by changing
the angle of discs on the drag
bar. The operator can pass
rapidly over the crop without
the trouble heretofore ex-
perienced by moist earth stick
ing to the discs, cleaners being
attached to the axle, which
effectually prevents the discs
from clogging.
These three valuable pIanta-
ton implements are now in
use at the Pepeekeo, Onomea
and Wainaku plantations and
we shall be pleased to show
testimonial letters from the
managers as to their respective
merits.
To intending purchasers we
would say that the prices of
these machines have been ma
terially reduced this season.
We keep them in stock.

There are no signs that the farmers of
the Central West and the Northwest
were any more crazy for free silver than
those of the East. 1t was the fashion
during the campaign for the free silver
people to lay great stress on the agrieul-
tuTal vote of the West; on the assump-
tion thatIis was almost solid for free coin
age. Certainly a hundred and ninety
thousand majority for sound money in
Illinois, $4,000 in Iowa and 30, 900 in
Minnesota do not indicate much solidity

probably true that q: one time the farm.
ers of the West were pretty thoroughly
tainted with the free silver doctrine, but
that was before the other side was fairly
presented to them, No doubt the farmers
of the West, along with the farmers of the
East, would gladly ACCEPT remedy for
hard times. but they afe not ready to
swallow anything simply because sone-
tody has labelled 1t a pauaoea.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

by local application as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness and that is by constitu-
tlonal remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have runbling sound or imperfect hear
ing and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be DESTROYED forever ;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh.
which IS nothing but an infamed condition of

CURRENT COMMENT.
IF.
(Boston Herald. }

If the gold standard plank had not
been placed in the St. Louis platform: if
instead, there had been the eyasive cur
rencs plank of other DAYS, this public
spirited support of the Republican can
didate by the Democratic believers in
sound money would never have been
given. There would have been no Object
in abandoning Democratic candidate
upon free silver platform for the pur-
pose of supporting Republican candi-
date upon a platform which might just
as readily be construed to favor silver as
to favor gold. while, moro than :his, tie
Introduction of the tariff rs the chief
issue into the campaign would have
made utterly impossible the necessary
support that Mr.. Mckinley received, Ii
may, therefore, be said that the Repu bli-
can vicJory secured last Tuesday was In
reality won by ths little group of men
who, at the st. Louis convention. por-
sisted, until they were successful, in de-
mandng that the convention should de-
clare in favor of the existing gold
standard.

Suppose the campaign had been fought
on the tariff issue, where would we have
been now. Perhaps we should have been
victorious, but the currency question
would have been left unsettled, ami
would have had to be fought out
at ae later date. By keeping the cur
rency question at the front the Republi-
cans settled that and left the tariff
question in just as good position as if
it had been made the pre-eminent is
sue.

A man can tell just about as well
what the weather is going to be on the
day Of the next Presidential election, as
what the issues Of the next national cam

seemed certain that the tariff would be
the chief, indeed the only, question in
this campai gn, but it has been hardly
heard of.

NEW YORK, Sept 2a-Coney Island's
historic elephant was totally destroyed by
fire late last night Tho huge boast, built
OF yellow pine and sheet iron, lowered
high above the surrounding structures
and occupied about two acres Of ground.
Shortly after 10 o'clock flames were seen
issuing from Its sides. and Within an hous
the ancient relic Of Consy's feyner gr0at-
ness was a mass Of RUNE. The channel
ckutos adjoining were damaged TO tho
extent Of S. 600, and the Sen Beach palace
opposite was badly scorched. The loss on
tho elephant viii amount 10 many thou
sands OF dollars, as there was little insur-
ance. The elephant was built in 1850 by
William Y. Laflerty at a cost Of S5S 600
and was owned by Hall & Garrison OF
Philadelphia. It was originally Intended
to serve as a hotel and concert hall, but
was not a success. Then IL was trans

Caieomo or tho Agitation Against the
Ordor In the Dual kingdom.
TrENT, Southern Tyrol, Sept. 2s.-The
anti Masonic congress, arrangements for
which wore made In Rome, where the CEN
sal cxcrcutive committee of the anti
Frecmasons has its headquarters, is in
session here.
The prince bishop Of Trent, who opened
The congress, saic that speeches might be
made IN any modern language The re-
ports OF tho proceedings, hdwever, Will be
issued in French.
Tho object in calling tho congress IS set
forth as being to make known to all tho
unmeasurableness Of tho moral and ma
ierial evil the church and society have
suffered through treemassnry and to seek
an antidote Ia the form Of permanent
anti Frcomasonic organization.
The agitation which has resulted In
calling the anti Masonic congress has only
sprung up in Austria within the past four
years. The movement IS essentially po-
itlcal and closely associated with the
anti-Semite troubles of this country. The
recent reform legislation in Hungary di-
rected against tha influence Of tho Roman
Catholic church caused great alarm In
clerical circles IN Austria The new mar
riag8 laws received the imperial sanction
Ia SDi, bus Immediately afterward their
promoters, Dr. Wekerle, the Hungarian
premier, and Dr. Desider Szitagyl, the
minister OF Justice, retired from office.
Both these ministers were Freemasons,
and a majority Of the then Hungarian
cabinet were Freemasons. IL was stated
at the time that the reform movement had
its entire origin in the Masonic lodges
md that In tho lodge Of which DR.. WEEK
erle belonged tho clauses Of the impor-
tant, farreaching marriage laws were
I drawn up.
Frecmasonry In both nations Of the
| dual monarchy Is Of recent origin, and the
membership is mostly Hebrew. The pub
| lie laws against secret meetings are very
strict and rigldly enforced. The Free
masons are allowed to meet once weekly

MIR. Gladstone's Anti-Turkish
Speech Criticised In Berlin.
FRANCES SIGNIFICANT WARNING

The French Embassador HAS an Inter-
view with the sultaa and Demands Re
forms--Important Negotiations Between
Italy and England.
BERLIN, Sept 2s.-The anti-Turkish
speech delivered by Mr.. Gladstone at last
Thursdays mass meeting in Liverpool
has been widely published here and gem
orally commented on by the newspapers,
O majority Of which speak Of the address
unfavorably. The Nossischo Zeltung Is
the most indulgent of any OF the leading
journals In its criticism4 and goes no fur
ther than to express hope that the words
Of the former prime minister of Great
Britain will have a SOLDERING effoot upon
the sultan and the palace clique behind
him. At the same time The Vossische
suggests tho possibility that the almost
violent language employed by MT Glad
stone may reaWaken Che fanaticism Of the
Moslems and the Armenian revolutioniets
and thoir followers, leading to the very
results which he so strongly denounced.
Among the other leading German pa
pers the ooncensus Of opinion Is that the
speech Is more likely 60 do harm than
good Tho suggestion made by Mr.. Glad
stone OF "a severance of the diplomatic
relations between Great Britain and Tnr-
key is regarded by the papers as fantastic
and only likely to encourage renewal OF
the massaores In tho sultnns dominion.
The North German Gazette, In an ex-
haustive article in criticism Of the speech,
says, q" IL must be painful to many Eng
lishmen to find that Gladstone does not
know Of any other remedy for the Turkish
excesses than to threaten the sultan, while
at the same time confessing that the
| threats could not be followed by action.
The National ZeitungRnd some Of the
i other journals accuse Mr.. Gladstone Of
/ treating a serious situation with leyity.
Additional newspaper criticisms Of Mr..
| Gladstone's Liverpool spoooh show that
| the antli- English campaign which the
/ German press have entered into has reach
i ed a high state of Inflammation. The
i North German Gazette in its issue OF to-
day prints the entire speech translated
/ verbatim and attacks Mr.. Gladstone
vioiously in its accompanying editorial.
The German papers are also muchstung
by tho taunts of the Russian journals,
| which are asking why Il is that Germany,
| which has always been parading its mill
tary greatness and readiness for war, now
shows itself to be more awod than any OF
the other powers before the phantasm OF
war as a consequence Of an attempt TO Co
cree the sultan These journals continue
their taunting OF Germany by declaring
that Mother Austria nor Italy botrays such
a degree of nervous eagerness to hinder
all practical steps toward solving the
Turkish problem, yet Germans Interests
in the Mediterranean are only Indirect.
