Fountain on Palace Square in Memory
of c. L. Carter.

The committee from the Citizen S
Guard, consisting of Fred j. Lowrey,
chairman; w. H. Hoogs, George p.
Castle, Theo. F. Lansing, and F. Weir
ick met President Dole and his Cabi-
net yesterday to discuss the location
of the Charles l.. Carter memorial.
Permission was given by the
Executive to locate the memorial,
which will be in the form of a foun-
tain, in the triangle forming the Pal
ace Square. The various artists of the
city will be asked to submit designs
for the memorial. The design select
ed will be sent on to the United States
to be manufactured.
It is the wish of the committee to
have the memorial erected with a
years time, if possible. The fountain,
which will be made of iron, will be
erected on space of circular form
and about thirty feet in diameter.
There is about $500 in hand to carry
out this most commendable work.

The Passing -of "Boom Times.p

During the II years between 1879 and
1890 this country ran an almost breathless
race of eager and rapid development Ger
tainly those were not normal times. They
were based upon conditions that will new
er be seen again upon the American CONT
nent To long for their restoration is to in
dulge in the fascinating but profltless oc-
cupation of chasing rainbows. For what
is there in our present condition or in our
future prospects to justify the hope that
those times will return? Our new west is
already fairly well peopled, and its bust
ness conditions have conformed themselves
to those Of the rest OF the country. Except
in II few mining districts it no longer of
ers field Tor adventure or speculation
Our great transcontinental railway sys-
TENS are already constructed, and not one
of them can earn interest on the money
it cost. Our new towns and cities went
rather beyond the capacity of the tributary
country to support them under the stinu-
lus of inflated real estate values and with
the temporary opportunities they offered
Tor employment of labor.
We shall not again have flood of for
eign money pouring in to loan upon any
thing or everything having the semblance
of property. The foreigner has had his ex
perience, and he now wants to be doubly
sure that he is going to get his capital
back and his regular interest payments
before an American investment has any
attraction for him. Is it not, on the whole,
probable that we shall have to make up
our minds to plod along in the slow going
way of older nations and to be satisfied
with moderate profits and "a slow accumu-
lation of wealth. Ii these be our reason.
able expectations, would it not be sane
and wholesome for people to cease dream

Electric
Company.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
in the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the mean
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gen
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and | take no more risks
This is the sentiment of quite number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
them what you want.
We have complete stock of everything in
this line and have just received lot of the
very latest designs in chandeliers.

From the Fairhaven IN. " Register.
Mr.. James Rowland of this village,
states that for twenty-five years his
wife has been a sufferer from rheu-

such pain that she was nearly crazy.
She sent Mr.. Rowland for the doctor,
but he had read of Chamberlain's
Pain Balm and instead of going for
the physician he went to the store
and secured a bottle of it. His wife
did not approve of Mr.. Rowland's
purchase at first, but nevertheless APP
piled the Balm thoroughly and in an
hours time was able to go to sleep.
She now applies it whenever she feels
an ache or pain and finds that it
always give relief. He says that no

her as much good. For sale by all

UNCLE SANS STANDARD GOES.
Miners Complaint AbOut the Selling
Price of Gold.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
All gold that comes from the Klondike
is not of the same value, according to the
men who handle the greater part of the
yellow stuff that comes to this city. Gold,
of course. is gold, but some gold carries
silver and base metals, which do not ap-
pear to the naked eye, but which the cru
chile of the refiner and the assayer reveal.
This makes one lot of gold more valuable
TO the mint than the other, because Uncle
Sam Is particular about the quality of the
money on which he permits his initials to
be placed.
Up on the Klondike everything that is
yellow passes as gold at $17 an ounce. So,
when the miner comes down here and
finds that his treasure is only worth about
SIS, he begins to lose confidence in the
ways of the people to whom dollars and
cents are hard reality And when he
disposes of the treasures he has wrested
from the frozen earth at a less figure than
Klondike quotations, he begins to feel that
the ways of civilization are far different
from those on the Yukon. Many years
ago Uncle Sam fixed the value of an
ounce of gold 1000 fine-that is perfectly
pure-at $20.671S. This standard has been
maintained ever since.
OF all the creeks in the KlondiSe coun-
try, Bonanza carries the purest gold. That
IS TO say, II comes nearer the
that has. been established to determine
it's purity. After passing through the
hands of the refiner and smelter it gener-
ally yields the owner ST an ounce. But
Ell Dorado bellies its name. Down at its
mouth the average value of the gold that
comes from there is only STATS. Going up
the stream, however, the value increases,
and a less percentage of silver is found.
Sometimes the difference amounts to 81 an
ounce. In fact, there is no creek in the
whole district in which the gold is uni
form.
Last winter an adventurous assayer
went into the district and made a return
of $3.50 an ounce for some Ell Dorado
creek gold. The miners held an indigna-
ton meeting, and would have driven him
from the camp If they had not had a little
spark of humanity left.
Some of these men came down to the
city recently and sold some of the gold
from the same creek at s15.03 an ounce
showing that the assayer knew his bust
ness. These men are now complaining
because local smelling works are paying
the same as the Kiondike assayer said
their gold was worth. Outside of the
mint, no gold is bought in this city.
The Shelby Refining and Lead Company,
to which the most of It goes to determine
It's value. only pays after it has passed
through the smelling pot. Then IT'S value
is determined upon by the standard fixed
by the United States government. So.
the complaint of the Klondlke miners that
they are not getting the full bullion value
OF their product in this city does not seem
20 be borne out by the facts.
