rays"

Several of tho leading physicians
Of Honolulu met a few night ago for
the purpose OF examining an X Ray
apparatus lately imported from the
Coast.
After several tests had been made
they came to the unanimous deci-
sion that the only "Ray" to beat the
X Rag was the Rainier beer which
causes such a feeling of X hilar-
ton to "rdy" date through the sys-
TEN tina, the imbiber is impelled to
shout Hoo rag for Rainier beer at
the Anchor Saloon where you get
it to perfection.

1t Is Here.

The comet which recently has
created much comment in the lead
ing papers Of the United States is
now visible from Honolulu. Last
night the comet appeared at 7 p. M.
very distinctly over Manoa and Pa
lolo Valleys. The comet is broken
as stated iu the scientific papers and
appeared last night in three distinct
divisions. 1t is a beautiful sight
and the "head" of the comet is evi
deutly yawning (the comet probably
Is read the last number of The
Friend). Early in the morning,
about 3 o'clock, brilliant meteor
was observed. 1t fell probably with
in 400 miles Of Honolulu, and left a
glazing streak Of light behind its
course. The cosmic shower which
wa4 noticed 33 years ago, in Austria
a will probably be repeated during
the coming hours or days. The
comet which was seen several week:
ago from Hawaii will probably be
plain to the observers this evening

A Sudden Death

We regret to record the death OF
Charles Hammer a well-known ka-
maaina of Honolulu. The deceased
responded TO the great roll call last
evening about six o'clock. Charles
Hammer had been very sick man
for the last ten years, and his friends
often despaired of his final recovery.
A shoat while ago he went to Cali
fornia, seeking health, and returned
greatly improved. He re-opened
his business as harness maker and
felt sure of working for years to
come, The failing of his heart could
not be stopped, however, and he
was stricken down suddenly upon
his return from his shop. Charles
Hammer was born in Christiania,
Norway, in 1881, and came to this
country in 1879. He opened har-
ness shop hore which at all times
had the patronage OF the leading
members OF the community, and he
conducted his business until his
health compelled him to take rest.
Hammer leaves wife and five
children to mourn the loss OF kind
husband and father The funeral
will take place this afternoon under
the auspices Of the Masons. II. I'll.
Williams has charge of the funeral

WV. DIMOND,S

Much of the solid silver ware
used in Honolulu is bought in
San Francisco by people visiting
there because it is cheaper.
Twenty-Five per cent duty is
great deal too much to pay
and it tempts people to make
purchases while they are where
they may buy it cheaper. There
is nothing criminal in the tran
saction, just a bit of practical
economy. There would have
been no necessity for these buy
ers to go abroad, if dealers were
willing to divide with their Gus
toners. The profit is large
enought on solid ware to cut off
the twenty-five per cent, and
sell it at margin satisfactory
to every one. People do not
buy when. they are abroad be-
cause they can get better goods,
but because they can get it
cheaper.
The selections made by us
are from three of the largest
factories in the States. We buy
for cash and get the articles
cheap and will sell them at TWEEN
ty-fve per cent. OF exactly the
same as is charged in San Fran
cisco. We have child's sets at
$6.75 and full tea sets for a great
deal more; the quality has never
been surpassed in this country
and the prices have never been
equalled.

THE LIQUOR AGENCY.

Our esteemed and more or less reliable
contemporary, the Eastern Argus, wants
to know how the liquor agency is going
to pan out this year ami if there will be
bill for the tax payers to SETTLE We
desire to assure the Argus that the agen-
cy is in a sound financial condition,
thanks to those who have had matters In
charge. especially the agent
The amount paid for liquors for the
year 1s94-5 as per the Auditors report.
was $40, 746 06. The present administer
ton took control of the Agency May 8,
1894. The amount of liquors bought
from May 8, 1894 to April l, 1895 (the
end of the financial year } was s16, 4s9. 90.
This subtracted from the total amount
for the year leaves s4316.14, which was
purchased by the Democratic administra-
ton during the flvs weeks from March
81 to MAY s, 1894, at which time there
was cash on hand, S2235. SO, and balance of
stock on hand. With a total sale of
S44, 0l0. 43 for the years 1894 had the hills
been paid the account would have been
about even, instead of showing a profit
OF some $4,000. as was claimed 1t is the
same old story OF nearly all Democratic
administrations deficiency bill, or an
amount put forward for the next ad-
ministration to provide for, and then
the shout goes up that the extrayagancs
Is on the Republican side.
This much is certain, and susceptible of
proof by the accounts. For the year from
May s, 1924, to May s. 1895, under the
present control, with a total sale Of
$s2. 800, every hill was paid, and a bal
ance OF sl5oo appeared on the books when
the annual account OF stock was taken.
And the Argus need have no uneasi-
ness about the current year, for besides
paying all bills of whatever nature enc
thousand dollars have been drawn from
the Agency fund for the echool fund.

When few of their members who had
tack of conscience and lelinquished
the offices to which their title was not
clear, two high toned Democratic clubs
get together and forced them to retrace
their steps and hold on to the offices
which they confessed they did not believe
belonged to them. Hardly single
Democrat in the town raised his voice In
condemnation Of the fraud but the great
majority of them endorsed it and used
their utmost endeayors to prevent it's be-
Ing proved and it's perpetrators brought
to justice
Three years have passed and now this
same party which behaved in SO outrage
GUS manner then and which showed
itself utterly careless of right and Justice
has the brazen effrontery to ask the
people of Portland to turn the control of
city affairs over to then: in order that
they may introduce reforms. What evidence
do they bring of change of heart? Have
they sent the leaders in the disgraceful
affair in ward one to the rear? Have they
ever repudiated the ballot C Jerk in ward
one who confessed that he helped put out
of the way package of ballots because
its presence would betray the fraudulent
count? Are not the men who urged the
Democratic candidate for aldermen and
oouncilmen in ward one to hold on to
their offices notwithstanding their
olouded title as prominent as ever?
When the Democrats. show some signs
of change of heart, will be time enough
to entrust them with the management
of the affairs of the city. Up to date, they
have shown none whatever.

MARKING THE BALLOT.

The process of marking the Australian
ballot is very simple, and with the exer-
else of a little care all errors can be
avoided. First and foremost it must be
borne in mind that unless the voter
makes cross in one of the squares above
the party designation he loses his vote
altogether. No matter how much eras-
ing of names on the ticket and writ
ing in others he may do, unless he makes
cross in one Of the squares he accom-
plishes nothing. The first thing the voter
should do, therefore, after he enters the
booth is to place cross in the square
above the ticket the most of which he
wants TO vote. This cross when so
placed Indicates that the voter intends
to vote for all the candidates in the COL
unm underneath it and is to be so inter-
preted by the warden. If. therefore, the
voter wants to vote straight ticket, Re-
publican, Democratic or Prohibition all
he has to do is to Eput the cross in the
square above Republican, Democratic or
Prohibition, fold up his ballot and de-
postt it IL the box. II he wants to split
ticket he must still place the cross in
the square above the ticket, the most of
which he intends to vote, then he must
erase the names of the candidates he does
not want to vote for, and substitute the
names of such persons as he does want
to vote for, in the spaces below. He may
do this by writing in the name with a
pencil or ink or he may append a sticker
bearing the name Of the person. Suppos-
ing the voter wants to vote fer the whole
Democratic ticket with the exception of
Mayor. aud wants to vote for Mr.. Baxter
for that office, he will proceed as follows:
First place the GROSS in the square above
the Democratic column, then erase the
name of Mr.. Bird by drawing a line
through it, and then in the space below
write in the name of James P. Baxter or
attachin this space sticker bearing the
name of James P. Baxter
