GET IT AT
WAREHOUSES;
Throw the
on us

That's what our patrons can do. Just
understand that every purchase made
here is with the distinct understand
ing that it must give satisfaction. We
want to know if it doesn't.
A lady told us the other day she got
the idea ours was so exclusive a stock
that the prices would be so high she
couldn't trade here. That's wrong.
We have exclusive styles-yesl But
in point of fact our prices are LOWER
than maryland as low as any store
that carries reliable goods. It's the
very cheap that is the very expensive.
We are always willing to exchange
or refund money on goods bought of
us which are not entirely satisfactory,
when returned to US in good condition
within reasonable time after pur-
chase, but with the distinct under
standing that all such goods returned
will have all charges paid.
When sending for samples, or for
information, write plainly your name
and postofice. After receiving sam
pies, and they prove satisfactory, or
der quickly, and if possible make two
or three selections, marking them in
the order of your choice. This will
prevent the delay required in sending
new samples which so often happens
when goods to match the sample re-
quired are sold.
1t sometimes unavoidably happens
that goods ordered are out of stock,
and in such cases we take the liberty
of substituting what, in our judgment
is equally desirable, both in quality
and price. II not satisfactory in this
case, please return at our expense. In
our Grocery, Crockery and Hardware
departments our stock is thoroughly
complete and the range of prices is all
that can be desired.

We think too that the customs author
tiles were much to blame for the al
lowing of delivery of goods before ana
lysis, which. had the delivery not been
made, the wines could have been re-
shipped TO the consignors. We do
therefore recommend that the petition
be laid upon the table
w. F. PoGUE,
]. D. PARIS.
L consider that the customs ofii-
cials were to blame for allowing the
withdrawal of the wines before the
test was made and that the Collector
General of Customs should have al
lowed the return of the wines in bond.
as the wines were shipped here in er-
ror and had the customs officials taken
the test as they should have done be
fore delivery, the wines would have
been returned by the importers to the
consignors. Considering the state
ments in the petition, which have been
verified. | would recommend that the
following items be inserted in Senate
bill 4:
Duties returned TO E. Hofschlaeger
& Co., s66765.
Duties returned to Lovejoy & Co,
s44S.7S.
If these items were inserted, the
two firms would still lose SS69.72."

Minority report.
The reports were laid on the table
to be considered with the bill.
An item of $500 was asked for to
make repairs on Aala lane down in
the vicinity of the Chinese theatres.
The Speaker called Rep. Isenberg to
the chair and then went down on the
floor of the House to have something
TO say about the lane in which he lived.
According TO Mr.. Kaulukou, the place
was perfect duck pond in the rainy
weather and when the lane dried up
again it was hardly passable on ac-
count of the ruts. The lane had been
in the same condition for years and
the various Legislatures had seen fit
to ignore the place. The members
were not long in making up their
anu lAlC AlCLu piSSSu
When the item of repairs on Manoa
road was brought up the Honolulu
members objected in a body. Rep.
Richards who has been clamoring
against the greediness of Honolulu.
voted for the passage of the item. As
it happened the item passed, but later
Rep. Gear thought better of the mat
ter and voted for consideration. This
carried and the item was then indie
finitely postponed.
In the course of the discussion on
the item Rep. Robertson called the at
tention of the House of the strange
ness of the action of Rep. Richards in
voting to give Honolulu more money.
Rep. Richards answered that the bill
was farce anyway and the more that
was put into it the better is would be.
Various other items in the current
account bill were considered and the
House adjourned at 1915 p. m.
