By the Albert which arrived
a few days ago we received 1913
Quincy Cleanable Refrigerators,
ranging in size from the small
household ice box to that used
in grocery store. 1t was
large invoice--not consigned,
but bought outright. These re-
frigerators and ice boxes have
nine points of excellence, to wit:
Cleanliness, free circulation;
economy in the use of ice; con-
densation and dry air; low aver
age 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 propose leas-
ing these refrigerators 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 before the expiration of the
six months, the lessee wishes to
pay off the balance he will be
entitled to discount of five
percent on the 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., August Ahrens, the we'll
known manager OF the Waianae
Plantation, has letter in another
column which convinces us that he
has misunderstood our remarks in
regard to the Waianae Coffee Plant
alton, in a recent article criticizing
certain statements Of Mr.. Dilling-
ham. We are fully aware that the
Waianae Coffee Plantation owes its
existence to the energy and skill OF
Mr.. Ahrens and his able assistant
Mr.. Otremba. What we wanted to
demonstrate was that Waianae cof-
fee has been famous here long be-
fore the present Coffee Plantation
was established. Waianae coffee has
for many years been considered the
OnOlC6 pTOQuCJ VI buo COuhtiJ ohp
we mentioned the fact as compli-
ment to the men who have fostered
the now we'll developed plantation
and certainly not as "slur." Mr..
Ahrens certainly must know the
friendly feelings of The INDEPENDENT
to Waianae Plantation and all con-
nected with il. There has lately
been so much coffee blooming" in
these islands that we think it wise
for the conservative element to re-
fuse to join in the general screech,
Waianae Plantation has adopted
that policy at all times and the snub
administered to US by Mr.. Ahrens is
probably due to our effort in 'boom-
ing" Waianae coffee. We shall not
repeat the offense.

They are all alike. That is, "the
best government that these islands
ever had" aud its supporters. Cap
tain Godfrey says: "Before the pres
emit Government assumed the con-
troll Of affairs the march OF public
improvements was not exactly visible
to the naked eye" The captain pro-
badly alludes to the improvement at
the Inter-Island Co.'s wharf Of
which company he is the president.
The captain deals taffy. Again the
captain says: "Taxes are now but
one percent on low assessment
valuation of property" The captain
thus gives the impression that the
taxes we're higher under the mon
archy. Any person who pays taxes
on property knows that assessments
have been raised by "the best govern
ment," for the simple reason that it
was not deemed polite to increase
the rate. Captain Godfrey has how
ever paid for the improvements to
the wharf of his company.
