THE REPUBLICAN, DUTY.

NE kCPUDLikHN UUiI'
1t is for the Republican party Of this
e-unty and of all the counties of the
Territory to consider whether it will
nominate clean ticket or one that is
only clean in spots; whether it will
deserve the unqualified support of good
citizens or only their partial support;
whether it Will make its appeal as an
exponent of good government in all
branches of the county administration,
or as a two-faced entity proclaiming
good government in some offices and
bad government in others.
The public knows that there are men
out for county nominations and with
fair show, at the present time, Of get
ting them, whose names We're irretriey-
ably blackened by the late official scan
daIs: men whose records in public life
have never been straight. The NOM
ination of such men would be the sig
nal for Republican bolt-whether an
organized or spor taneous one would
make no difference; the election of
such men would hurt the influence of
the Republican party abroad as well
as at home The party can only hold
its own here by giving good govern
ment; if it becomes responsible for
bad government the Independent Re
publicans would prefer to give the Of
fees to Hone Rulers believing that,
if there must be thieves and scalawags
in power, it is better to have political
enemies responsible for them.
1t has been said to us that some men
of shady regulations must be put on
the ticket to get the native vote
The Advertiser refuses to believe this. |
1t is a libel on the race. A native |
likes to vote for a native, but between |
an honorable one of the type of Mark |
Robinson and one of the boodler kind, |
we believe he would make the best
choice At least enough Hawaiians
would do so to elect the clean candi-
date.

STRONG EVIDENCE OF FAITH.
Feldmeyer Bros Guarantee that Hlpmei
Will Onre the Worst Oase..Of 0atarrh
In Annapolis.

When one of the most reputable
concerns in Annapolis guarantees
that a medicine will effect a cure or
they will refund the money, it speaks
volumes as to the merits of that rem
edy. 1t is in this way that Feldmeyer
Brothers are selling Hyomei, the
treatment that has made so many re-
markable cures of both acute and
chronic cases of catarrh in Annapolis
and vicinity.
Hyomei is not a pill, nor is II a
liquid that has to be taken with a
tablespoon or wineglass. Just breathe
it in by the aid of an inhaler that
comes in every outfit, and benefit will
be seen from the first treatment.
1t destroys all germ life in the air
passages and lungs, and enriches and
purifies the blood with additional
ozone. 1t cures catarrh Of the head
and throat, or of the stomach, liver
and kidneys. Wherever mucous mem
brane contains catarrhal germs, there
Hyomei win do it's work of healing.
When using this treatment, the air
you breathe will be found like that on
the mountain high above the sea level.
where grow balsamic trees and plants
which make the air pure by giving of
volatile antiseptic fragrance that is
healing to the respiratory organs.
Remember that If Hyomei does not
cure you Feldmeyer Brothers will re-
fund your money.

Tanning the Zebra.

The domestication of the zebra is no
longer regarded as hopeless. A serious
attempt is being made to utilize the
herds which range in the East African
Protectorate. A stockade was erected
in a favorable spot on the Morendat
River, enclosing an area Of about for
ty-eight acres. Out Of this projected
an arm. into which the herds were to
b. headed. Four or five hundred ma
tives were collected, and on an Octo-
Der morning the Gordon Of heaters sur
rounded the ground on which the zebra
had been seen to Craze. But on this
occasion the zebra went the wrong
way. the whole 800 Of them charging
through the Gordon and escaping. Lat
er on the Gordon was strengthened,
and European riders were added. II
was a most exciting struggle. A dozen
or so were got into the arm, and the
rest charged the heaters. Headed
back, the large herd got the wind-o or
the smaller herd, and entered the arm
at full gallop. Subsequent counts
showed the number Of animals to be
eighty-fve: two foals have since been
born in the bona. and the old and
young are becoming wonderfully tame.
They now frequently Craze within q
few feet of the tents in which the men

Asked to explain, the pursuer said:
I'VE had a first cabin passenger named
Henry Robertson on board. Soon
after leaving Queenstown he realized
that he had not brought enough money
to meet the probable amount Of the
customs dues likely to be levied here
on the presents he had purchased
abroad. He did not know a person on
board through whom he could effect q
loan.
HE came to me and said II his
mother had not sailed for England by
the Lucania on the very day he had
sailed on the Campania he could have
avoided anything more embarrassing
than a brief delay at the pier here un-
til she could telegraph funds to him"
But why not do 1t anyway asked
some one.
"Iow?" inquired Mr.. Robertson.
~Why. we are likely to get into WIRE
less communication with the Lucania
in day or two, and you can ask your
mother to deposit the money with the
Lucania's pursuer, and get the same
amount credited to you on board the
Campania here"
Forthwith the following message
was prepared for the Campania's oper-
ator to dispatch as soon as the Lucania
could be located:
Mrs. J. L. Robertson, Passenger, Luz

Communication with the Lucania
was established half an hour after mid

were about fifty miles apart. The SER

ser and also Mrs. Robertson as soon as
the message was received on the Luz
