Metropolitan Meat Co.

1T is OUR INTENTION TO INAu-
gurate a new system in the delivery
Of meat to our customers.
AS you are aware, II has been the
custom In Honolulu for years past Ia
custom born Of the pre-refrigerator
days. to have the meat cut up during
the night and delivered early each
morning. In many ways this system
has proved unsatisfactory, and we have
therefore determined TO try daytime
delivery instead.
IL Is proposed to have In some parts
of the city two deliveries per day, one
In the morning. with meat for lunch
or dinner, the other in the afternoon,
when meat for dinner, or breakfast the
following morning, can De sent. Or
ders will be taken by telephone each
evening as at present and before. IL
noon for the afternoon delivery. This
system will also give householders an
opportunity Of coming to the market
to select their own cuts, which can be
sent out on the afternoon delivery.
IL Is also hoped that 1t may be pos
sible under this system and by making
late delivery on Saturday afternoon
to do away with Sunday work, which
has always been an Objectionable fea-
ture of the old method.
AS we are DESTROYS of giving salts
faction TO our customers in every way,
we hope that they will be willing TO
give the proposed system a fair trial,
as we believe that when 1t is perfected
IL will be found to work to their bene-
At as we'll as our own.
We shall start our first daily deliv-
cry on Monday next, April 18th.

Ex-PREsIDENT CLEVELAND

From the Nashville Christian Advocate
 There is disposition in some quarters to belittle all the utterances of ex-Presi- out of power in bad odor with the ma jority of his own political party is sup posed to be sufficient reason for reckon ing him an incompetent and discredited man. To tell the plain truth, he is not an attractive personality. His manners lack the charm and grace of gentleness and conciliation He reminds us of what the old lady in Virginia said of her hus- band: "Yes. I think Gibson is a good man; but he has certainly got the win ningest ways to make woman hate him of all the men that I ever saw" But this much granted, it still remains true that MT. Cleveland is one of the most in- tellectual, honest and courageous presi- dents that ever occupied the chair. When history comes to assess his reputation 1t will deal very kindly with him. He has recently delivered at Princeton university two lectures on the independence of the executive, which are worthy to be care fully read by every student of our insti- tutions. They trace the history of all at tempts upon the part of congress to usurp functions that justly belong to the presi- dent, and show the varying measures of success with which these attempts have been repelled. We are not surprised that the university students should have listen ed to them with the greatest attention, and have applauded them to the echo

EXPERIMENTING PRAIRIE DOGS

Austin, Texas, April 2f-Hon. T. H. c. Peery of Seymour, Baylor county, who was a member of the twenty-sixth legisla- ture, was here today on business with the state departments. He said that the wheat prospects in the Panhandle country are very fine and that the seasonable rains have made an abundance of grass on the range. He also reports that the prairie dogs, which had become such a pest in his section, are being rapidly extermi- mated.
 "The means used for killing the little animals is to put carbon in their holes," MT. Peery said "The carbon is covered up and the dogs are suffocated by the gas which the carbon generates. The exter- imitation of the pest Is regular busi- ness with some men, and they take the contract to rid the farms and ranches of the animals at the rate of cents per acre. or $25 section. This is very cheap, con- sidering the fact that 50 per cent of the grass and growing crops are saved by exterminating the destructive animals"

HE ONLY DAILY NEWSPAPER IN ALABAMA
Free Public Schools in Alabama.

The platform adopted at Montgomery is without a flaw It speaks the sentiments of the democracy of the state upon all leading issues, and it voices them in no uncertain tones. Like all the rest of the work of the convention, the platform is satisfactory and admirable.
 To The Age Herald the free school plank knell of the vicious pay" system. 'We pledge" it says, "the people of Alabama that no backward step will be taken in the matter of public education, and that every effort possible will be made to estab- fish and maintain within the reach of every child, both poor and rich, the means of obtaining ABSOLUTELY FREE OF TUI- TON such instruction as will qualify him sponsible duties of citizenship"
 This splendid clause pledges the democ- racy of the state to the abolisment of the entire pay system, which has crept into the public schools of Alabama, and which is a disgrace to them and clog upon their efficiency in the reduction of illiteracy. The Bulger tax will be available next Oc- tober, thus raising the school fund to fully million of dollars, and the legislature should not hesitate to carry out the pledge of the democratic party by making pay" schools illegal. No other state harbors any such limitations to the very poor and the Bulger tax renders their further re- tenton in this state unnecessary and un- will be known among it's fellows as a pau per child.
 The little rings of 'pay' teachers in the state may as well get ready to accept the situation by dssolving their organizations; for the pledges of the democratic party will be carried out and the state will be among the advanced states in the respect of public edcuation. The declarations of the democ- none too progressive. They are just right, and the renomination of Superintendent of Education Abercrombie renders assurance doubly sure
