Dreadful
Malaria.

There are numerous diseases having
their origin in the blood, but which on
the surface do not appear to be blood
disease Such is Malaria, which is a
poison breathed into the lungs, and thus
taken into the blood and circulated, inn
buing the entire system with its morbid
effects. Those who have suffered from
this dreaded disease know what life
less condition ensues and how the vitality
is wasted, away so that death is often
caused by some simple ma1ady, because
of the low ebb to which life is reduced
by this poverty of blood. This condi-
ton of the blood often gives rise to
boils, carbuncles, assesses and ulcers,
and not infrequent1y causes catarrh,
bronchitis, and even consumption.

ELECTRIC BITTERs.

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gen
orally needed in the spring, when the
languid exhausted feeling. prevails,
when the liver is torpid and sluggish,
and the need of tonic and Alternative Is
felt. A prompt use of this medicine
has often ayerted long and perhaps
fatal bilious fevers. No medicine VIII

RErURRs FROM VOLCANIC WAVES.

The arrival of the Australia will be
looked for with interest by many peo-
pie. From the fact of the tidal wave
being muck higher on Kauai than
here, it would appear that the wave
came from the West or Southwest.
If so it probably came from Mexico,
or Peru. both of which are great vol
canic centres. Of course there may
have been a submarine eruption, but a
mighty eruption there has been some
where, of that there can be no doubt.
There is no telling how closely con-
nected the phenomena of the volcanic
centres of the Pacific ocean are. The
fact of the disappearance of the fires
of Kilauea and the eruption and sub
sidence of Mokuaweoweo may have had
an influence upon the craters of the
Aleutian chain. AS a fact science
knows very little about the causes of
earthquakes and volcanic phenomena
in general, and the chances are that
It never will, unless it can send Ront-
gen ray towards the centre of the
earth and solve definitely what. is
he condition of the interior.

AMERICAN PARTY POLITICS.

The latest dispatches from the States
bring news of the gathering of the Re
publican clans at st. Louis preparatory
to naming their party leader in the
coming Presidential campaign. Unless
all signs fail, that convention has now
adjourned after naming william Me-
Kinley of Ohio as the candidate for
President. This result seems inevita-
BILE, as Mckinley has been winning del
egates from the ranks of his opponents
and Joe Manley, Reeds political man
ager, seems to be the only one Of the
machine politicians who has not given
up hope. Quay OF Pennsylvania has
openly admitted sure success of the
Ohio man, and Plat of New York has
kept quiet. A Number of Morton's del
egates have Joined the Mckinley throng
and if in the convention any of the
anti-McKinley men get any votes they
will be the complimentary ballots of
home delegations.
The platform on which the Republic
AN candidate is nominated will be one
If the most interesting features Of the
campaign The remarkable inroads
which the free silver men have made in 1
he Democratic ranks cannot be with

financial plank Of the Republican plat

form. Mckinley will attempt to make
the fight on the tariff. but there is
good reason to believe that broad
financial straddle will be made at St.
Louis.
In the Democratic State conventions
throughout the South and West Presi,
dent Cleveland's financial policy has
met with crushing defeat and already
the silver faction has almost enough
delegates to assure 16 to 1 silver plat
form at Chicago. In Kentucky, where
Secretary Carlisle hoped to win COM
plimentary delegation, the State con-
vention was captured by the free silver
men. AS Carlisle has allowed Mr..
Cleveland to force him into the ranks
of the gold-bugs, the Kentucky con-
vention. rather than sounding Car
isles praises, sounded his political
death knell. Virginia Democrats have
joined the free silver ranks and one
State following after another in this
line wipes out all hope President
Cleveland may have had for fourth
Vice President Stevenson is looming
up as possible Democratic candidate
His good sense IN keeping quiet POI
litical tongue for four years is now very
evident. Even such a radical silverite
as Bland of Missouri is mentioned in
with the Democratic lead
srship. Should the Chicago convention
declare for free silver, the Democratic
party would undoubtedly gain a large
vote that for the past few years has
been scooped in by the Populists. and

CLEvELAND's VETO.

President Cleveland, in vetoing the
river and harbor appropriation bill
passed by the United States Congress
said: ITO the extent that the appro,
priations contained in this bill are in
stigated by private interests and pro-
mote local or individual projects their
allowance cannot fail to stimulate a
vicious paternalism and encourage SEN
timent among our people, already too
prevalent, that their attachment to our
Government may properly rest upon the
hope and expectation of direct and es-
pecial favors, and that the extent to
which they are realized may furnish an
estimate of the value of Governmental
care. believe no greater danger con-
fronts us as nation than the unhappy
decadence among our people of gen.
uine and trustworthy love and affection
for our Government as the embodi-
ment of the highest and best aspira-
tons of humanity, and not as the giver
of gifts, and because its mission is the
enforcement of exact justice and equal
ity and not the allowance of unfair ia
voritism." .- -
This is one way Of looking at the
matter, but it is quite as un-American
as President Cleveland's opinions usu-
ally are. Following out the same prin-
ciple he would veto an appropriation
Of money to assist cable company or
a steamship line. He would have the
Federal Government entirely withdraw
from giving assistance to individuals
who by virtue of the assistance would
be enabled to strengthen the position
If their country as one of the leading |
commercial nations of the world If |
,ur own President had followed the ex-
ample Of the former New York Sheriff |
he development of the resources of |
his country would never be accom-
,lished. When direct and especial
avors" mean the improvement of har.
'ors and carrying on public works,
here can be nothing better to inspire
love for the central Government.
his last veto Of President Cleveland
ives very good proof Of the needed
hange in the occupant of the United
tates Presidential chair, and it is not
uprising that the members of Con-
ress have obtained enough votes to ;
ass the river and harbor bin over the /
residents veto. l.

AND PATRIo rIsM.

This talk about American citizenship
in connection with the celebration of
the anniversary of American Indepen-
dence is entirely out of place. To the
man born on American soil the Fourth
of July represents a sentiment far
above and beyond the question of the
legality of citizenship. 1t is day when
every American shows what spark of
patriotism he has in his veins; it is
day when the foundation of broad re-
publican principles, exemplified in the
first republic, the greatest and strong
est republic the world has ever known,
is commemorate. That republic is the
United States of America. 1t is a day
when men born in the United States
and reared under the benefcent influ-
ence of it's liberal institutions, which
properly scoff at the idea that one man
is better than another simply because
he happens to be born into this or that
family, rehearse the glories of their
native country and reassert their 10y
atty to the principles of freedom and
equality.
1t makes no difference whether the
American has become naturalized citi-
zen of another country, he should al
ways be true to the memories at least
of his native land. The man who can
forget the country of his birth deserves
the fate of the man without coun-
try" How many naturalized citizens
in the United States show their respect
for their various home lands by OBJ
serving with appropriate ceremonies
the days set apart in the mother coun-
try for public celebration.
Again, who of the Americans in Ha-
vail can lose his honor and love for
lis country and his flag in consequence

)retation of law by one who happens
