Tariff
Vagariies

In the United States the Govern
ment allows rebate to the manu-
faeturers on all agate ware shipped
out of the country. 1t is one of the
fine points in the tariff question,
and enables the foreign importers to
compete with dealers in the United
States in the sale OF these articles.
1t makes it possible for our Gus
toners to buy such goods from US
at lower prices than they can buy
them in San Francisco. The APP
pended list shows but a few of the
articles in this line sold by us, and
where more than one price is graded
with the different sizes of the arti-
cles. In every instance you will OBJ
serve that our prices are much lower
than the same goods may be bought
for at the Coast. These prices are
taken from the catalogue of one of
the largest House Furnishing Goods
dealers in San Francisco; it is bona
fide, and the goods are identical in
quality as those advertised in the
catalogue. 1t ia hard to believe that
the people of Honolulu--2,100 miles
from San Francisco-can buy such
goods for less money.

Two Important Gases.

rhe Supreme Court will shortly
be called upon to decide two very
interesting cases, aud the decisions
will establish presidents OF great
Importance.
G. X. G. Rookie of England has
brought suit against the beneficiaries
under the will Of the late Queen
Emma for the recovery Of certain
valuable property, which the plain
tiff claims is unlawfully in the
hauds of the trustees OF the Queen
Emma estate.
Mr. Rookie, as we understand it
bases his claim on the will of DR..
Rookie, who adopted Queen Emma,
and died many years ago. la the
will DR.. Rookie left the property in
question to his adopted daughter,
the Queen Emma, to hold for life,
aud to revert to his nephew Mr..
Rookie OF England, if the Queen
should die without issue.
Queen Emma died with issue, the
Prince Of Hawaii who died in 1865
He was her only Issue, and when the
Queen died in 1885, she disposed by
will OF he property to the benef
Charles now being sued by Mr.. Rookie
of England,
The other important case is the
suit brought by certain stockholders
in the Kohala Sugar Company, who
sue to recover certain dividends. 1t
seems that a dividend was declared
by the directors of the Company,
and that at a meeting of stock
holders a majority voted to estab-
| lish reserve fund instead Of pay
ing out the dividends. The minority
stockholders some of whom depend
for their existence on their income
from the Sugar Company, have
brought the matter into Court and
the decision which will be of vital
Importance TO all minority" stock
holders in Hawaiian corporations
will be awaited with deep interest

SUCCESSFUL BLASTING.
rho OLE Pan noad has Disappeared.

Tho OLD Pail load has Disappeared.
Quie number Of people went TO
the Pail yesterday afternoon to wit
ness the blasting operations, which
were to remove a large ledge about
1000 feet from the top of the Pail.
The blasting was superintendent
in a very careful aud skillful man
manner by the contractors, and
about 5000 tons OF rock and earth
were dislodged and sent spinning
down the mountain side, filling up
the old road and making it impass-
able forever.
Nineteen large and ten small
blasts were sent off in rapid success
sion, and the spectators witnessed a
sight. Three thousand pounds of
powder and fifty pounds of giant
powder we're used, and the opera
tons were crowned with a perfect
success.
Messrs. Wilson and Whitehead are
to be congratulated that the big
blasting was finished without the
slightest accident. The road will
be flushed in December and the old
road will soon be remembered only
in Hawaiian song and lore.

that there had been an omission in
the ticket filed and consequently the
entire ticket would be illegal. After
working everybody up to fever heat

The Honest Shakers and Their
Cure for Dyspepsia.

The shopkeeper who cheats us by lying
about the quality of his goods, and the
grocer or butcher who gives us short
weights, is a thief. However, their knav-
cry touches nothing but our pocket-book.
There is another widespread form of mis-
representation, OF a far more dangerous
and villainous character.
We refer to the false statements and
worthless guarantees that frequently ac-
company medicines. To guarantee a med
icine to cure is to brand it as a ouack
product If we can guarantee to cure.
then we can guarantee everlasting life.
for in large majority Of cases people
die Of disease, the proportion of violent or
accidental deaths being very small.
The Shakers have always been known
as a most upright and honorable people.
and their success in the manufacture of
medicine has also been we'll known. 1t
is therefore, not surprising to find them
pursuing a very original and novel plan
for the introduction of their remedy for
dyspepsia.
These G0d-fearing people, whose motto
has always been Try all things and hold
fast that which is good" have put upon
the market ten cent sample bottles Of
their product, or sufficient to give it a
trial
The Shaker Digestive Cordial is so
prompt in it's action, that for the trivial
sum of ten cents, a person can usually
determine whether OF not it meets the
requirements OF his case. There are
forms of dyspepsia which it won't help
but these are very rare. In most cases
the first dose relieves all distress, and
nm increase of appetite at once follows.
All druggists have it, and the next time
you are troubled with indigestion send
out and try this popular and successful
product. 1t represents nearly a hundred
years Of patient investigation and study.

PEOPLE WILL NOT SUBMIT TO IT.
Progressive Farmer.)

The proposed amendments to the cleo
ton law are not right. The plan to place
the appointment of poll holders in the
hands of three supervisors, +" who, in all
probability will be a Populist bolter, a
goldbug Republican and goldbug Demo
craft, three of a kind, taking the whole
machinery out Of the hands of the three
PARTIES, is an outrageous proceeding. The
Payne election law and the construc-
tDon OF it by Democratic election tyrants
was bad enough, but as compared to this
new machine about to be thrust upon us,
wasa mild affair. BY this new method
the voice of the people at the ballot box
would simply be the wishes OF the three
supervisors. The people Of North Car
DINA are not ready for yoke OF that
kind. The party, the combination of par
fles that attempts TO lasso the people of
North Carolina in such a manner viii
ind that it has undertaken too much.
The schemes 10 take the government
of towns and critics out OF the hands of
the citizens of said municipalities are
second only to Supervisor plan. The
Governor Of North Carolina should not
have the power to dictate the municipal
affairs of any town or city. That power
should be invested in the citizens of
said towns and cities. Neither should the
clerk of the Superior court or any other
State or county officer have such pow
er. 1t is contrary to the principles of a
Republican form OF government.
