brunswick Marble and Granite works.
Reed Il. LaMance, Proprietor.
When honoring our dead with a mark to
designate the last resting place of a dear
one, we want to choose something which is
not as temporary as man. but will stand
the storms and tempests and the ravages of
decay long after We have passed from the
active drama of life. Stone for this purpose
is usually selected and is now almost uni
versaly used
No establishment in the south is better
equipped for this line of work than the one
under notice
The Brunswick Marble and Granite
Works has been successfully conducted by
Mr.. Reed e. LaMance for about seven
years, and his ability TO do any kind of
monumental work is no longer a specula-
tive theory with the people, but fact based
upon practical execution.
The office and works are located on New
castle street. Here can be seen not only
many designs IN monumental work, but also
a large line Of deliberately carved mantels
CRATES. thing. etc. which are special fea-
ture of the business.
Mr.. LaMance also contracts for building
stone and granite work and enjoys an en-
vable reputation for first class work in this
line, as well as in granite and marble monu-
ments.
The large trade enjoyed In North and
South Carolina, Tennessee, Florida and
Georgia is in itself evidence sufficient to
satisfy the most skeptical of the superior
class of work and ability of this house to
give entire satisfaction.

America for the Hawaiians.

1t is stated by the Chronicle that
Samuel Parker, Hawaiian Minister
OF Foreign Affairs under Queen
Liliuokalani, has come out in favor
Of annexation. Mr.. Parker is large
land owner, and doubtless his
material interest will be advantaged
by annexation. 1t is, therefore, not
surprising that these interests, to-
gether with his affiliations with the
Hawaiian Sugar Trust, should lead
him to declare for annexation.
Nothing but sentimental interests
and feeling of loyalty to his de-
posed queen would incline him the
other way. Mr.. Parker is reported
in the Chronicle as saying: 81 have
concluded that annexation would be
a blessing to our islands. The
better classes feel as I do. Ishall
return to the islands at the end OF
this month, and will begin cam
paign Of education among my peo-
pie, showing them the utter unrelia-
bility of the reports sent from here
which they are made to believe
that under the United States Gov
eminent, they would have no voice
in their own government, and could
never acquire the elective franchise"
Before Mr.. Parker begins his cam
paign OF education among the Ha-
waiians, we hope that he will begin
a campaign OF education among the
Americans. If, as he so plainly states,
the conditions OF annexation involve
the comforting OF the franchise upon
all Of the natives of the Hawaiian
Islands, we think the American peo-
Pile ought to know it. IF those ISL
ands are annexed, and if they are
erected into State or States, and if
Presidential election should hinge
upon the vote of the State of Ha-
waii, which vote would be cast by
these natives, who, Mr.. Parker says,
are "psrsons Of innocent and simple
minds" we think that the American
people ought to know that, too. By
all means let Mr.. Parker begin his
campaign OF education among the
Americans frst.-S. f. Argonaut.
