what Miles is after. Viewed in the
light of recent years, neither the army
nor the navy is likely to produce poll
teal standard bearers, and the train
ing of men in the services does not lead
to making them good political leaders.
Political leaders should come from civil
life. Great as Grant was, he would
have been greater man had he never
been president. Political abnegation is
sometimes a mans greatest glory.

Tourists Cups

We have lately gotten out a very
neat design in a souvenir cup, showing
many old and new scenes of Hawaii,
of great interest to your friends abroad
The cup is beautifully executed, the
designs standing out in bold relief,
giving very vivid impression of the
scenes.
The metal is pewter, bright finished
inside, and handsomely oxidised on
outside. Judging from the way they
are, selling, they are the best souvenir
this house has ever placed on the mar
ket. The price is $1.5O for the regular
cup, and $3.50 for the Stems. We pack
them ready for 3mailing anywhere.

The sugar boom continues, and be-
tween now and the end of the year the
four cent mark which was predicted
last fall, will, it is hoped, be reached.
The feeling of confidence in suga' in

shaken, will return and, before long the
depression, which has rested upon the
community will give way not to a
boom, but to return to reasonable
values.
