NEW YORK TINES

The Times is newspaper for intel
ligent men and women who want to
read all the news of the world every
day. The paper has distinguished
merits OF its own. 1t is neither SEN
sational nor dull. 1t is not sour
tempered. 1t is not frivolous or vision
airy Itsees plenty OF good in the world
and tells about it. 1t tells OF the bad
when it must, but not unwholesomely.
1t prints with fulness the record OF
human endeavor in many fields outside
of business. politics and warm liter
allure. religion. science. art, sports and
household matters. No paper in the
country prints so many book reviews
and so much book news. No paper
has so complete a financial page-a
daily manual for investors and officers
of financial institutions. Its market
reports-wool, cotton, breadstuffs, farm
products. etc. are the best in the country
The Democracy OF The Times is OF
the old fashioned sort-as old as Thomas
jefferson; majority rule. no bossism. no
machine tyranny, the divorce OF politics
from private money making, sound
currency. industrial emancipation, and
every day honesty. To promote the ad-
vance of the Democratic party along
these lines Ii labors with heart and
conscience and all its might.

The following news is culled
from the Hilo Tribune Of the 18th
inst:
In the strike of the hammer on
new houses, the boom of blasting
OF rock and the many other works
going on at present, the newly ar
rived stranger will find Hilo
very lively place for its size.
Several foreign gentlemen ar
rived by the last Kinau and are at
present looking over the agricultu-
raj prospects and possibilities
with view of settling. Plenty
of prospects if capital is employed
to bring the land to bear.
Mr.. hoderick Ross, coffee
planter, was thrown off his horse
by the animals stumbling, and
had his left leg fractured alb I'VE
the ankle. DIR. Williams treated
him.
CABLE LINE OF ooKALA.
Mr.. @. l.. Wight has completed
arrangements on behalf of the
Wilder's Steamship Co. with the
Ookala Plantation for the erection
of an overhead cable wire at that
place for shipping sugar. The
Pepeekeo and Hakalau cables
having given much satisfaction
decided the OokGla people to put
in one. 1t has been found that
when boats could not approach
the landings, shipping sugar over
this line was effected without any
mishap whatever.
HlLo PAINT.
Mr.. Terry has been experiment
ing with IA local production which
has resulted quite satisfactorily in
the shape Of a paint. There are
an abundance of mineral stained
earth deposits to,be found quite
near town, and it had been report
ed to Mr.. Terry that it was to be
had in several colors. This gen.
tleman procured some very fine
red earth, ground it up in a poi
grinder, mixed it with boiled oil
and has applied it to several sur
faces with complete success. There
is no doub' thai it would make
cheap and durable paint, which is
the same as is used on all railway
,depots in the States. Here is a
small industry for some citizen
who will keep it i'll stock.
PUMA TEACHERS ASSOCIATION.
A teachers, association for the
District of Puma has been orga-
nized. For the present meetings

it is hoped to have them weekly
before long. Teachers have to
come q long way over lava roads
and mere trails to attend this
meeting. Mr.. II. L. Wilson of
the Kalapana Government School
writes as follows:
ave cannot have these meetings
too often here. More of the
teachers ia this district have had
special training for the work, so
we need all the work we can get"
