d" NEVER BE EITHER. "

AS Speaker Reed said to the I'M
lucky politician who would rather
be right than be President Of the
United States, so one might say to
Editor Armstrong, You will never
be either"
To meet his onslaught upon the
civilization Of Hawaii, with the
same kind of derisive, ieering per
sonalities with which he interlards
his course of lectures to this COM
munity, would accomplish nothing
but tit for tat.
But it is difficulty to imagine the
sincerity of one who seriously
classes himself with the great re-
formers, because he sees fit 10
denounce the employment Of Chin
csc and Japanese agricultural
laborers as intolerable under
American laws.
OF the scarce two per cent. who,
as he sneeringly observes, compose
the Anglo-SaXons of Hawaii, he
would take the smaller percentage
engaged in sugar planting, and in
sist that they either ought to have
induced white men to work in the
cane fields, or else let sugar cane
alone, in order to avoid the odium
which he, the editor of the Adver-
tiser, invokes upon them.
There is no danger of Our con-
temporary being regarded by others
either as crank" or a reformer.
If any one ever told him in a whis-
per to keep still, it must have
been some friend who for his, the
editors sake, hoped to curb his
habit of unfair and useless fault
finding and sneering at everything
and everybody.

Does any one know where all the
oleomargarine that is imported into
the Islands goes to? Looking over
the list of cargoes of vessels coming
from the Coast one often sees any
thing from $50 to 1000 pounds
forming part of it. A search
through the Custom House statistics
fails to find the word oleomargarine.
First "lubricatiug oils" was tried,
but oleomargarine was not there.
1t was not among drugs and
medicines" nor fruits" nor eek.
plosives, s." nor even as last resort
under groceries" 1t certainly
comes down here in large quantities.
Can it be-no one doesn't like to
think it--but can it be entered as
butter, and does one enjoy it at Tong
Luck's restaurant and other places?
Oleomargariue is a proper market
able commodity, but in other places
it has to be distinctly marked and
cannot be sold as butter. 1t might
be we'll to establish some such rule
here and prevent its conversion into
butter on arrival.

WHAT is 1T?
The Russell Staple Puller


The Russell Staple Fuller
and Wire Splicer is a drop
forge tool, made of black dia-
mond tool steel, and embraces
six tools in one; weight, about
a pound, and can be carried in
the hip pocket with ease.
The six tools are as follows:
l. Double staple puller,
nails, etc.
2. Double wire cutter. -
3. Double hammer, non
breakable.
A. Good wire splicer, for any
kind of wire, barbed wire in
cluded.
5. Good pair pincers, with
long leverage.
Good monkey wrench, for
plows, machines, etc.
The leading fence companies
throughout the middle and
western States have adopted
this tool for use in putting up
their fences, and recommend
it as the best tool of it's kind
in use.
1t is one of those tools that
while used in wire fence work,
yet might be called a "house-
hold article" as everyone that
has used it claim they cannot
afford to be without it around
the house, barn and farm.
If other dealers tell you that
they have something that will
do as we'll and is cheaper,
don't have it. Why? Because
no one or two tools are as
cheap as six.

superior of all ice refrigerators

Ours are the Quincy clean

$3.50 to 500, and we make
the terms so reasonable that
anybody can buy one.
You can have an ice box by
paying $1.25 per month for

to you for $3.50 less 5 per cent
for cash.
We give the same excellent
opportunities to purchasers of
refrigerators. There is no
reason why you should allow
your meat and butter to spoil
for the want of a suitable
refrigerator when you have
almost your own time in which
to pay for it.
Our styles are the very
