4 Plea for the Amendment.

MR. EDITOR-A few weeks ago
you we're good enough TO publish {
letter OF mine which was intended by
NE as an appeal to foreigners in favor
OF Cancellation towards the Hawaiians
More recently you published my ap-
peal 10 the Hawaiians in favor OF con-
ciIiation towards the foreigners.
now venture 10 draw attention. in
the interests as I believe of both Ha,
waiians and foreigners. TO the impor-
tant Constitutional amendment which
has been introduced into the Legisla.
ture, for the removal Of the oath now
required of voters.
This amendment cannot. at bets
come into effect until the gen
eraI election Of 19O1-and not then IN
less 1t be passed by the Legislature OF
1900. as well as by the present Legis-
lature.
Moreover, to judge by the signs OF
the times, the bulk of the Hawaiians
will take the oath and vote next year
possibly reserving TO themselves the
right TO change their minds after
wards, as they may claim that others
have done, or possibly they may argue
that a political oath is not binding. as
l have heard white men argue. need
hardly say that I do not approve OF
either OF these pleas: but I do believe
chat most Of the Hawaiians will vote.
and those perhaps not the most de-
serving.
1 therefore argue that the removal
OF that oath would show a wish 20 con-
ciliate the Hawaiians, and it could have
40 other effect. They would see that
the foreigners were doing all that they
could do under the Constitution to re-
move the disabilities from the Hawai-
ians. and that would make for peace.
II, In the course OF the next two
years, it were found that the Hawai-
tans did not appreciate the olive
branch thus held out, the next Legis-
lature could reject the amendment. and
no harm would have been done.
II this opportunity be lost. II will
never recur. for the Hawal!ans win be
sure to accept the decision OF the pres
ent Legislature as the final verdict In
the Court OF Cancellation.
am. sir, your obedient servants.

DEAR SlR:-The Secretary Disc Plow pur-
chased from you is giving us satisfaction We
are using it to plow under crop of lupins They
are three feet high and very thick. Your pow
turns them completely under, at the same time
blowing the land fourteen inches deep.
feel satisfied that with this plow the draft
for the same quantity and depth of work is as
to s. That is with the old plow to do the same
work, it takes 8 good mules: with your plow it
takes only 6, and they are less tired at night.
Please send me another plow by first schooner
leaving for this.
You are at liberty to use this in any way you
may see fit. Yours truly

Some Business Maxims,

Do not forget that good address is
as important as it is pleasant to Gus
TONERS and associates.
Don't look for success until you can
command the respect Of employers,
associates and your customers.
Don't be discouraged when you
make a mistake; the man does not
live who never made one.
Do not spread out too much, for
you may spread very thin.
Don't trust a man simply because
he is honest; honesty does not supply
ability.
Do not count your credit SO good
that you can afford to abuse il.
Don't make credit with first CON
sidcring what proportion Of assets
are available to meet liabilities.
Do not be SO anxious to sell goods
on credit that you fail to ascertain
your debtors worth.
Did you ever realize that the aver
age cash discount will amount to
nearly double the interest you are
obliged to pay for money borrowed
for the purpose.
Don't overlook the fact in grant
ing credit that the all-important
questions are: How much is appli-
cant for credit actually worth; in
what shape is he worth 1t and VIII 1T
proportion of his assets is reilly con-
vertible to meet his liabilities?
Don't be deceived by the extra pro-
ut you may obtain on sale to a slow
paying customer; as rule the slow
paying customer is Improbable.
Does your Indebtedness nearl
equal the liquidating values of your
assets? You are in danger.

Ladies Home journal for 1888.

To make The Ladies Home Jour
nal for 1898 "the best of all the
years; the most cheerful and helpful
magazine that woman can posi-
bly, have in her home" is the pur-
pose Of its editors, as disclosed by a
prospectus outlining few of the
projected features for the coming
year While the Journal will be
more useful and practical than ever
before, it is made apparent that its
literary features will be strengthen
ed, and that pictorially it will be
more attractive and artistic than
ever.
This is but passing glance at
the 1898 Ladies Home Journal.
which is aimed to meet the literary
and practical needs of every member
of the household. By The Curtis

For What We Don't Print,

What howl would go up il the
newspapers were to criticise the in
dividual as freely as many people crit
icise the newspapers, Every issue of
a live and reputable newspaper is a
mantle of charity, and the matter left
out would often equal in volume the
matter published. If an editor could
get out cold fact edition of his pa
per some day, and then get up tall
tree and watch the results, what a
picnic he would have. Yet people
never take these things into consider
alton when something chances to get
into the paper that pinches little
bit. They don't stop to think that
the editor is not different from other
people, and is liable to err. Instead
of condemning the newspaper for
what it does publish, they ought to re-
turn thanks everv day for what it
does don't publish.

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
fiammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.

Several Items from Fairmont's Daily.
The Land slide at Montana said to be

Col. Joe McDermott is il the city

this afternoon, having completed the

quite voluminous, making TAO type

The young men of West Eairmont
will organize hose company this
evening, and those who desire to act
as members have been asked to at.
tend a meeting called for that pur-
pose. The council of that enter
prising suburb has recently pur-
chased 500 feet of hose and reel, as
a result of the introduction of water
works into that town, and the street
committee has been authorized By
council to build hose house, which
is to be located on the towns piece
of ground adjoining the lookup.
There is big slip in the railroad
at the west end of Montana and all
Pittsburg trains are delayed in both
directions. As fast as the dirt is
thrown out of the way to allow one
train to pass the place is filed again
with another slide and the same
thing is to do over again. This morn
ing the train leaving here at 7
o'clock was until after II getting
away from Montana, and the one
due here at 1886 was over an hour
late. The train leaving here at ,
this afternoon got through in 20
minutes, as the time was so short
from the time the other one had
passed. Freight business has ceased
entirely and the sidings are full OF
coal. A wall is to be built where
the slip is, as it is a troublesome
place every time there is a continued
wet season.

TERRIBLE TALES
Of the Dreadful Suffering and
Death iii Alaska.

Told By Returned Sold Seeker Peo-
pie Dying At the Rste Of thirty Ave q
day at Skagusy-He would mot go
back for all the Gold In the KIondike.
SHARON, Pa, March 19.-Charles
Jones, manager Of the Douglass fur
mace returned home yesterday from
the Klondike. He is thoroughly dis
gussed and tells some terrible tales.
The Klondike, he says, is yeritable
death trap and deliberate suicide
would be as sensible thing to do
as to travel either by the Chilkoot
or White Pass.
"rhere will be over 300, 900 peo-
pie go into the gold fields this year,
and not one in thousand will make
his expenses" he said. "Of this
vast army it is hard to estimate how
many will return. At Skaguay they
are dying at the rate of 50 a day and
at Lake Linderman the average
death rate is l60 day. All claims
have been taken as far as Juneau.
When asked if he would return be
said: II would not set foot in that
region for all the gold in Alaska"

What the Bachelor SAYS.

Search any married man in March
and you will find "A tape-measure on
him.
A man can always tell when girl
is trying to look conscious and embar-
raised.
No girl who is eating candy all the
time ever has the appreciation Of
kissing.
1t is probably lucky that men can t
have their choice between the small
pox and house-cleaning.
The average man doesn't put much
stock in robins; he waits till he hears
some girl says she must get her shirt
waists ready.
The first year woman is married
she is sure that il her husband were
unfaithful to her she would go mad.
The second year she thinks she would
die. The third year she wonders If
she would get a divorce. After that
she never thinks about it at all.
Most men like to play love best
when it's only penny ante.
An engagement is only a Irritation;
marriage is the introduction.
Trouble hunts for half the people;
the other half hunt for trouble.
There are to ways to win woman.
One is to win her and the other is not
to want to.
The thing that keeps a woman low
ing man longest is the fear that he
may be deceiving her.
Probably the first thing Adam said
to the Lord when he saw Eve was
that the joke had gone far enough.
