NOT A PATENT MEDICINE.
Hyomei, the Guaranteed Catarrh Cure,
Prescribed by Physicians

Hyomei, the Guaranteed Catarrh cure,
Prescribed by Physicians.
No one should confound Hyomei
with the patent medicines that are
advertised to cure catarrh. 1t is as
far superior to them all as the dia-
mond is more valuable than cheap
glass. Their composition is secret
but Hyomei gives its formula to all
reputable physicians.
Its base is the valuable eucalyptus
oil, famous for its antiseptic qualities.
This is combined with aromatic and
healing gums and balsams, making
a pure liquid. which when used in
the Hyomei pocket inhaler, fills the
air you breathe with germ-killing,
misunderstanding and healing pow
ers that kills all catarrhal germs
there may be in the throat, nose and
lungs.
How foolish it is to try and cure
catarrh by swallowing tablets or liquids.
The only natural way to cure this dis
ease and all other diseases of the respi-
ratory organs is to breathe Hyomei.
This treatment has been so sue
cesful, curing 80 per cent, of all who
have used il, that Hyomei is now
sold by w. II. Sheldon under an absolute
guarantee to refund the money if it
does not cure. You run no risk
whatever in buying Hyomei. If it
did not possess unusual powers to
cure, it could not be sold upon this
plan.
The complete Hyome outfit costs
S1O0 and comprises an inhaler. a
bottle of Hyomei and a dropper. The
inhaler will last lifetime; and ad-
ditional bottles of Hyomei can be OBJ
tanned for so cents.

THE HONOLULU TIMES.

lance to Hawaii, coupled with the
rigorous laws against assisted i'm
migration makes it impossible for
Hawaii to hope for relief from
that source, even if such imni-
grants could stand the climate,
which is far more trying than is
that of the South. 1t must be re-
membered that the Hawaiian Is
lands are situate south of the Tro-
pic of Cancer between the nine
teenth and twenty-frst degrees of
longitude, consequently on or
about the same level with, for in
stance, Vera Cruz, Manzanillo,
Hongkong, Bombay and Burmah,
Cuba, Formosa and Mexico City.
The impossibility of securing
sufficient supply of Hawaiian or
other laborers able to endure the
work in cane fields forced the
planters of these islands into a re-
lance on China and Japan for the
necessary supply. The Chinese
have always proved themselves to
be a law-abiding, docile, and in
dustrious people, but the United
States exclusion laws shut out this
nationality from Hawaii as soon
as annexation became an accom-
plished fact, and the only present
practicable source of supply is
Japan, though small number
have come from Korea.
Since the annexation of these is
lands the difficulty of maintaining
an adequate supply of agricultural
field laborers has been very great.
Chinese are absolutely prohibited,
and while the japanese still come,
the number of immigrant laborers
hardly balances the number of
Chinese and Japanese who return
monthly to their homes, and the
scarcity of labor has enhanced its
value.
There exists in the minds of
some, who are unfamiliar with
the nature of field work in tro-
pical cane field, the impression that
white men can perform the work,
and that the proper way to conduct
a sugar plantation is to divide the
land into small lots and give them
to white men to cultivate instead
of doing work of cultivation by day
laborers working or a wage under
one controlling management.
A list of the nationalities that
have tried field work in Hawaii has

cessitating emigration, these people
show no disposition now to come
to the islands, and even if they
were willing to efnigrate to Hawaii
the laws of the United States
would hinder them from receiving
that assistance without which emf
grafton would be for them impossi-
BILE. And here it may be stated
that if other Europeans can be
found who could endure labor in
the cane fields of Hawaii, the i'm
migration laws would render them
unable. The geographical position
of these islands and the great dis
tances which such emigrants would
have to travel would necessitate
their being assisted in ways which
are prohibited by the laws, as they
can not themselves meet the cost.
Of the Portuguese who originally
came to Hawaii as assisted emf
grants, those who did not go to
the mainland have so prospered
that now they do not engage to
any large extent as plantation la
borers, and their children, by the
aid of the excellent Hawaiian free
school system, have fitted them
selves for more congenial occupa-
ton than field labor affords.
1t has sometimes been argued
that the Hawaiian sugar industry
is in exactly the same position as
that of the Southern States, and
that if the latter can supply their
labor needs, Hawaii should be able
to do the same. This, however, is
wholly misleading and untrue. If
Hawaii had large indigenous po-
pulation such as exists in the
Southern States, and if Hawaii
could draw upon the large streams
of immigration entering the United
States, from which to supply Its
requirements, as does that section,
then such comparison might be
made. If there were no indigen-
Gus population upon which the
Southern States could draw to sup
ply the labor required in the fields,
and were they wholly dependent
upon Italian and other European
immigration for labor, they would
stand in relation to Europe geo.
graphically as does Hawaii in re-
lation to Asia. Furthermore,
while there is stream of Italian
and European immigration from
which the Southern States can

are no white men laboring in cane
fields here. Those who have tried
it have never stayed by it for any
length of time, and abundant evil
dence is Forthcoming that the
white man can not and will not
stand the work of tropical cane
fields.
Some little time ago the manage
ment of the Eva plantation, on
the island of Oahu, decided to ex-
pertinent with American farmers.
Fifteen families of highly respect
able people were carefully selected
in the Western States, and all
their expenses paid to the planta-
ton, where houses had been erect
ed for them, each with a garden
patch surrounding it, and where a
large patch of common land" had
been set apart for their use as
pasture for such stock as they de-
sired to keep. Here they were
given lots to cultivate in cane, and
every help was rendered in the
way of blowing and preparing their
fields, but Notwithstanding this
and all the Eva Plantation Com
pany expended on this effort to
raise cane by white farmers, these
people were not able to perform
the necessary labor, and they
drifted away by degrees, so that
in about year none of the fifteen
families was left Other expert
ments of similar nature have
been made with like results.
In connection with the question
of demonstrating" and of encour-
aging small farming, it is proper
here to point out that all the lands
cultivated by plantation companies
who find it necessary to irrigate be-
cause of the uncertainty of the
rainfall, were either arid wastes
or poor pasture lands before they
were acquired by these COM
panies, who sank artesian wells,
established expensive pumping
plants, or constructed extensive
water bitches and pipe lines, and
at great cost poured water over
the lands and made agriculture
thereon a possibility. If develop
ment by homesteads only had been
possible the lands which are now
cane fields would be in their prim-
tive condition, because their irri-
cation was only rendered possible,

Houses have been turned into hos

of the shift that left the mine at that
hour states that the mine was in good
condition and a gas explosion was
hardly possible. His shift left shot
hanging which the new shift may have
fired. It is suggested, from the force
of the explosion, which could be heard
for miles around and which tore heavy
timbers aside and piled tons of dirt
into the shaft, that bad shot had set
off some dynamite which had been
stored conveniently for work.
