TIT wonder is, why men who
already have such fabulOusIy vast
riches as j Pierpont Morgan and
the RochefellerS should be trying
10 crowd the small capitalists off
the EARTH. The Standard Oil COM
bine is so rich, it could we'll allow
other corporations to do II little
business, without its owners being
in danger of suffering want; and
Morgan & Co. could get along toll
erably we'll no doubt, without
owning all the steamship aud rail
road lines. There ought to be II
limit somewhere to the greed or
shall it be called ambition-of the
men who already monopolize SO
much more than their share of the
worlds wealth. tits simply dis
gushing to see men of such limit
less wealth and power endeavoring
to crowd all others out of the field
where every man should have the
right to compete, if he choose to
do so.

The origin of petroleum is still
a my stery to scientific men. SOME
claim it is an animal product,
Others that it comes FROM mineral
sources, and still others that its
origin is due to vegetablAdecompo-
sition. Whatever it may be, row
ever, its value is the same, and no
matter how it came to be under the
surface of Texas, its utility is un-
doubted. The owners of oil lands
will not worry about the origin of
the oil, so long as they can convert
it into cash.

Keep the Balance Up

1t has been truthlully said that any
disturbance of the even balance Of
health causes serious trouble.
Nobody can be too careful to keep
this balance up. When people
begin to lose appetite, or to get
tired easily, the least imprudeuce
bringSon sickness, weakness, or
debility. The system nreds
tonic, graves it, and should pot be
denied it; and the best tonic of
which we have any knowledge is
Hoods Sarsaparilla. What this
medicine has done in keeping
healthy people healthy, in. keeping
up the even balance of health,
gives it the same distinction rs a
preventive that it enjoys as a cure.
Its early use has illustrated the
wisdom Of the old saying that a
stitch in time saves nine. Take
Hoods for appetite, strength, and
endurance.

eloquent as well as impressive speaker
and his hearers were thrilled by his

Josephine St. John very pleasantly
sang The Peace Of God" (Gounod) g.,
then a statement Of the board Of trus

showed that there was "A deficiency Of
about $1,000 and it was necessary TO
raise that amount TO clear the church
from debt The entire amount was
pledged and as it was late IL was de-
cided TO sing the doXology and adjourn

These exerci ses closed an eventful day
for Presbyterianism in Alma We have
previously given a description of this
handsome building and therefore il Is
not necessary to repeat it at this time.
That the generosity of those who have
made this new church a possibility is
it is only necessary To prove
by repeating the following item which
was placed on the front of the program
used ON Sunday
We would here record our apprecia
tion of the generosity of Mr.. A "
Wright, An Unknown Friend, Mr. J. |
II. Plum of Indianapolis, The Synod of
Michigan, and The Many Citizens of
Alma by whose help this building was
erected"

Last Sunday was Presbyterian day IL
Alma. the occasion being the dedication
of the handsome building just completed.
1t seems almost increditable that this
structure, the cost which has been sl1,-
600, was commenced only a rifle over
one year ago, but such Is the case. The
total cost is SlS, 800, but that also in.
cludes the site which cost 81 800 How
ever this has been done. Just how il
has been done those who have labored
so asSiduously during that time, devot
ing their time and money 70 that end, j,
alone can tell. But there it stands, the
pride of the many loyal citizens Of Alma.
Ii was about two years ago that the
project of building new church for the
accommodation of the growing congre-
cation of Presbyterians began 10 formu-
late in the minds of "A few of the church
workers. Next an unknown friend
offered to give $4,000 toward the build
ing OF new Presbyterian church in
Alma, provided the same should be
dedicated free from all debt by July l.
1901. Then did these workers begin to
think of plan whereby this assistance
could be secured Aid was solicited from
our generous townsman, Mr.. a. w.
Wright, II was freely promised, and
the promises were more than fulfilled.
Then the citizens were called upon with
he same success. So much success did
hey meet with that when completed
lnly 81 ,0G0 were lacking to meet the re-
Iuirements of the 81 900 pledge, and
hat was raised on Sunday last.
That those who have had the super
vision of the work are pleased at The
happy completion of their efforts is un-
questionable, and they may be pardoned

MACHINERY
FOR 0LAA
Built by Honolulu
Iron Works
Company.

A Lille automatic quadruple evap-
orator with a capacity of $50, 600 gallons
of juice every twenty-four hours has
just been completed at the Honolulu
Iron Works for the Olaa Sugar Com
pany, Hawaii, to which place ii will be
shipped in few days This Is the
largest piece of machinery ever manu-
featured in the Hawaiian Islands and
is perhaps one Of the largest pieces of
machinery in one part manufactured
anywhere else. In order to build ii a
new addition to the main building had
to be made. Mr. Hedemann manag ger
of the Honolulu Iron Works, states
that the machinery will be taken apart
in two or three days to prepare the
same for shipment to Hilo and he is
sues a general invitation to all inter
ested in sugar plantation machinery, or
machinery of any kind, to visit the
works in Kakaako and make an in
spection of this most modern develop
ment OF machinery manufacture.
The work Is a credit to the enter
prise and pluck of the Honolulu Iron
Works Company and the undertaking
of such an enormous piece of work
speaks especially well for the high
class machinists who executed it, A
number of these evaporators have been
introduced into these Islands but su-
gar experts who have visited the works
and inspected this latest output declare
the workmanship excels that on the
machinery of like design shipped here.
A representative of Mr. Lille, the in
ventor has examined the machinery
and pronounces it the finest piece he
has ever seen.
The manager trusts that sufficient in
terest will be taken in the class of
work that the Iron Works is capable of

The greatest need of the Islands rs
farming population. The small farmer
has more needs than the plantation la
borer and adds more 20 the wealth and
prosperity Of the community. This Was
seen in the Olaa colony, for the farm
ers there had always something to sell
and were In the market as purchasers
all the time, so that the sale Of those
lands to the plantation, and the remov-
al OF many OF the farmers was felt in
Hilo very much. The natives and Por-
tuguese are developing a great deal OF
interest in the homestead lease. and the
lands will be distributed as much as
possible in that way. This offers a
home for the farmer and his children
for all time practically, and insures a
continuous residence upon the lands.
There Is much land suitable for farm
ing which may be taken up In this
way.
II was certain all the time that the
affairs here We're all right, and ! am
very much pleased with the conditions.

been very unwise to have called one.
| Many persons who were In favor of a
county bill have signified to me that
they did not understand the bill which
was passed and they are well satisfied
that it failed. I hope to see a scheme
of government framed before the next
meeting of the Legislature which will
be representative of the ideas of all the
people. If possible there should be a
body of citizens chosen to frame such
laws and charters as would embody all
! the best features of similar legislation,

Il believe that when the great cities
have been so organized that the Execu-
tive is responsible for all the workings
of the city that there will be a better
class of men chosen for the office of
mayor. The fact that he has so many
places to fill and such responsible ap-
pointments to make, in my opinion, has
had much to do with the selection OF
such very good men for the Presidency
of the United States. | am In favor OF
the national system in local govern
ment, and hope that modern plan
will be submitted for legislative action.

FUNERAL OF GEORGE A. MILLS.
Intcrment TO he Made mt Green
mount Cemetery. baltimore.

The funeral Of George A. Mills, pro-
prietor of the Grafton Hotel, who died
Thursday evening in this city, will take
place from the chapel in Greenmount
Cemetery at Baltimore this afternoon at
$3.50 oclock.
Prior TO his death, Mr. Mills, who was
seventy-two years old, had been in poor
health for several months. Early in
March he went TO Florida in the hope of
recovering his lost strength. The trip,
however, did not benefit his condition, and
he returned to Washington only a few
days ago. The complications from which
he suffered took a serious turn and death
was the result. He is survived by his
sons, George \. Mills, jr and Harring-
ton Mills, and by his daughter, Miss Ida
Mills.
Mr.. Mills was well known in Baltimore
and Washington, where he had a large
circle of friends. He was born in Balti-
more in 1893 and his education was re-
ceived in the public schools Of that city.
He later became a member of the firm
Of Harrington & Mills manufacturers of
furniture. The firm met with business re-
verses, and Mr.. Mills removed to Wash
ington. For Several years, assisted by
his son, he managed the Chevy Chase Inn
Later, under the name Of George A Mills
q Son, the two secured the Grafton which
they successfully operated.
