Better HAN -IA1S tJtdtCD0C44b
/ There is much talk in the town OF
Allegheny, Pa, over the discovery made
by Mr.. George C. Eldridge of that
place. After long search he has found
something better than gold. In a re-
cent interview he says;
! Eyes, I have made what / consider to
/ be an important discovery. To tell you
about it 1 must start at the begin
ming.
! THAT was number of years ago, "
! he continued. 1.-THE nature of my work
forced me to be very irregular with my
meals and that, together with a general
misuse of my stomach. brought on ner-
vous dyspepsia. My trouble commenced
with bloating constipation and this was
accompanied with pain in the back and
stomach 1 suffered with shortness of
breath and palpitation of the heart,
sleeplessness and an absolutely miser-
able feeling at all times. About three
years ago I had an attack which con-
fined me to my bed for three weeks and
times without number after that I was
4 obliged to give up. My kidneys also
became affected and caused me consid-
cradle trouble.
-Four different doctors attempted to
cure me but they gave me only tenn
porary relief. I became utterly dis
Outraged. Then I tried DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. Relief came
in about week and at the end of four
months l was entirely we'll
II can only say that l believe I owe
my life to DR.. Williams Pink Pills and
can find no words to express my thanks
for what they have done for me. Bet
ter than gold is but mild praise for
them. Everybody who knows me re-
marks the wonderful change. I can eat
anything now, sleep like a child and do
my work with ease. l do not need
medicine any more although l always
keep DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People on hand"
Mr.. EIdridge lives at No. 235 Carroll
street, and is but one of thousands who
always speak of Dr. Williams Pink
| Pills in the highest terms of praise.
They know what this remedy will do,
for they have used it. 1t acts directly
on the blood and nerves.

!. Committee of the United States Senate

! to Rico.
Sirs:-The undersigned, a committee
duly appointed by the Merchants Asso-
citation of Honolulu, beg to submit, for
your consideration. the following memo
rial on, the economic and other conditions
of this Territory.
We will assume that you are conversant
with the fact that annexation to the
United States has resulted in a serious
pecuniary loss to the Government of Ha-
wall through the transfer of the Custom
House and Internal Revenue receipts to
the Federal Government. and proceed to
state how, in our opinion, this loss may
be neutralized to the advantage of both
the Federal and Territorial governments.
To the growth of the cane and its manu-
facture into sugar is due the commercial,
If not the political, position of these ISL
ands today This industry fostered by
the reciprocity treaty before annexation
has been seriously injured, since then, by
the application of the United States labor
laws and Chinese Exclusion Act While
yielding to none in our desire to see this
become "a white mans country to the
fullest extent possible it has been demon
strated on several occasions that it is i'm
, possible for the white man to labor in
the cane fields, even at a high rate of
wages. We would therefore suggest a
! relaxation of the laws just referred to,
such as would enable our planters to draw
labor from Asia and get enough of it. I'M
der such restrictions as it might seem
right to Congress to Indicate This class
| of labor if brought here under proper
conditions, would not come into competi-
: ton with American labor. AS merchants
We have leave the further discussion OF
this matter to the Planters Association
: but the sugar industry is so very much
the most important of all Hawaiian enter
prises, that it ought, we think, to occupy
the first place in such memorial as this
