MOVING FOH ECONOMY.
It its n significant commentary on
tho violent zoal of thu slavish anti
national organs in thoir support of
thu P. G. and its bureaucratic vaga
ries, that their liugos the Ministers
and Councillors are compelled to
institute checks 141011 their voracity
for treasury pap. The fact is that
since the halcyon days of thcold
Advertiser when it was owned by a
member of the Cabinet, and those
of early in the career of the new
Advertiser when it was run to a
chalk lino laid down by Mr. Thurs
ton, there has never boon such a
bleeding of the treasury to sustain
a servile press as fiom the 17lh of
January last under the Provisional
Government. Wo have boloro chal
lenged a comparison of the advoi Us
ing and printing expenses of the
Piovisional Government with those
of any recently preceding adminis
tration. Such an exhibit would show
that the Hawaiian Gazette Company
(owner of tho Advertiser) simply
lives and moves and has its being
from tho public funds, liesidos tho
drain on tho treasury to keep tho
partisan tone of tho Advertiser up
to conceit pitch, the Provisional
Government has indulged hi extra
vagance of press subsidising never
before practiced here. Before its
time Government notices were not
duplicated in one language except
ing on rare occasions when tho
widest publicity was deemed to bo
in tho public interest. The publica
tion of the laws was given out to tho
lowest bidder regardless of party,
for one paper in English and one in
Hawaiian. Under tho highly econo
mical now order of things, oven,
description of Government advertis
ing is given to two English paper
tho P. G. laws, diplomatic formali
ties, appointments of all kinds from
heads of bureaus to poundniastors,
all go into the Star in addition to
tho Advertiser. Tho Star is a crea
ture of tho Annexation Club, and
the Government is afraid to get into
bad favor with that organization.
Therefore, the public money has to
be wasted m subsidising tho evening
organ, started as it was to down tho
Bulletin and thus extinguish in
dependent press criticism of the
now aud irresponsible rule. It is
nothing that this object has misor-1
ably failed, and that tho evening
organ has gained neither hold nor
standing in the community. So long
as its owners have a grip on the fears
of the Councils, of which they aio
not slow to boast on the strcots, the
thing must bo sustained at tho ex
pense of the taxpayers. These facta
will show how futile is tho proposed
scheme of economy in public print
ing likely to prove if couJiued, as ap
pears tho case, to a more regulating
of tho forms of oidoring services
under that head. From the nature
of tho reform projected, it would
appear that the organs have been
gobbling up patiouago without au
thorization perhaps appropriating
it from each other's columns and
trusting to thoir ''pull" with heads,
and their powers of blackmail over
subordinates, to got thoir pay all
right. Possibly it is a great re
form to roquiro that hereafter these
leeches on tho treasury shall draw
their fill only through sucking tubes
provided by their nurses. The pub
lic would have more assurance of
economy being tho object, however,
if the Government began to cut oil
useless advertising and stopped all
wasteful duplication of advertising
matter.

Editor Bulletin:
Tho Advertiser of Oct. 11, on
the
subject of tho Mouroo doctrine, savs
"that perhaps there aio certain mat
ters going on in tho world which
may bo entirely unknown in tho
oilices of both our afternoon con
temporaries. It is with the kindliest
feeling those lines aro penned, and
we hope they will not bo misinter
preted." Kindliest feeling! Kind
liest feeling! In the name of all
that is sacred, have 1 read aright?
is it possiblo there is such a tiling
as "kindliest feeling" to bo found in
the columns of tho Advertiser, a
paper that has been filled aud refilled
and rammed down with malignity
aud slander for tho last eight or
nine months, with tho lov. S. E.
Bishop sitting on tho heapspitting
vituperation at a helpless woman?
This looks serious; something is go
ing to happen. Wo will huvo to
wait for future events, wo hope it
will be for tho best, Hish; hush;
hark; lay low, keep dark, till the
moon rises, aud watch for the tum

Flattory That Pays.
liwTon Bulletin:
Holy Jerusalem! how that Star
man can Hatter. But, thou, the cull
ing fellow knows the kind ho can
play with, and will oagorly suck thu
llattory. Ho whistles tliusly: "False
witnesses like Nordhoff have des
cribed the reform leaders here as
filibusters and brigands, etc. Mr.
Thurston aud J'rof, Aloiunder have
dono much to dispol this fnlso idea
and estimate; but Prosidout Dolo
could do more than both." Whew!
Johosaphatl As for "intellectual"
capacity and force of character,
Piesident Dolo and Prof. Alexander
are about equal, and for either or
both together to tackle the brains
at Washington on tho subject of
robbing a nation, they would imme
diately be set down as two harmless
old grandmothers' led astray. In
regard to Mr. Thurston squaroly
measured lie is nothing more nor
less than an egotistical vain-glorious
blatherskite of an ass. Although
Mr. Thurston, with a littlo more ex
perience among men, might mako a
passable living as bill-sticker and
tootor of horn, for a. 0110 horso show.
The Star man is smart, aud in a
messuro justified whilo blinding
his simpletons with llattory, ho at
the sumo time bleeds them.

to tho pending litigation. Further,
that although Spieckols is entitled

Tho Supreme Court has rendered
a unanimous decision, prepared by

of E. Wory against conviction in the
Disliict Court for keeping a disor

REVIEW OF THE TBOOPS.
Ores Parade on Palace Squaro
Sconos in tho Aftermath.
Tho battalion drill of tho P. G.
army on Saturday afternoon on
Palace Squaro was a grand succoss,
so far as drawing a crowd was cou
corncd. All tho oflleors woro in full
plumo and pauonly of war, while
tho rank aud file lookod gay in new
uniforms.
Co. E, regulars, headed by a
drummor, and comniandod by Capt.
Good, was first on tho parado
ground and took a staud noar tho
Opera Houso. It was followed
shortly after by a dotochmont of Co.
A under Lieutenant Kin. Co. F
followed, in command of Lioutenant
Ludwig, marching down Richards
street, preceding Co. C, Portuguese,
undor Captain Camara. Tho latter
company was headed by oifjht 1110m
bors of Co. A, Co. B, "missionaries,"
precoded by two drummors and led
by Captain Hugh Guuu, came on
tho ground in roally good stylo.
Captain Zioglor marshaled Co. A,
Gormaus and sailors, with military
precision, and tho showing that com
pany lattorly mado rollected credit
ou its commander. Co. D, artillory,
undor Captain Wildor, marched out
through tho Executive building
grounds from tho barracks.
After tho different companies had
assembled at different points on tho
square tho drum corps under Drum
Major William C. King signaled at
tention, and Lieutenant Major J. W.
Pratt formod the compauios in line
previous to hauding them over to
Lioutenant Col. J. H. Fisher, who
in turn formod thorn for inspection
by Col. Sopor, commanding tho
forces. The battalion was put
through difforout evolutions aud
then, under thoir respective ollicers,
they were drilled for some time. No
littlo amusement was caused by tho
mistakes mado by nearly every com
pany. Co. A under Captain Ziegler
camo the nearest to a presentable
military standard. Once whon an
order for "right turn" was given.
Co. C turned to tho loft and Captain
Camara had to run and push the
men tho opposite way. Long after
a command for "order arms" had
been givou sevoral members in Co.
E were shouldering thoir muskets
and expectorating tobacco juice over
their shoulders.
Commander J. H. Soper, Quarter
master W. W. Hall, Ordnance Olti
cor A. Gartenberg and Army Surgeon
Dr. Rodgors marched down in front
of tho lino after the maueuvres to
make the regulation inspection,
after which the parade was dis
missed. "AFTEIJ THE DRILL."
After the different companies re
turned to tho drill shod, refresh
ments wore announced and the vol
unteers, with the exception of the
"missionaries" and the artillery com
pany, waited. Before long kegs of
beer arrived. Co. F had four kogs
and tho others sevoral each. There
wero probably fifteen kegs punished
by tho warriors. Col. Sopor super
intended the "punishing" act, and it
was a "punish" indeed. There was
no thought of poisoned boor or poi
soned peas, but everything wout ex
cept tho kogs. There woro cheeso
and crackers, also cigars.
in ino miusi 01 luo least u nn, a
member of Co. B, got into a fight
with a Portuguese mombor of Co. C,
and Jim's arm was arrested just as he
was about to hit his antagonist with
the butt of his riflo. Later this
same member attacked Captain Ca
mara aud came near destroying
Camara's "phiz." There wore sevo
ral other scraps, aud finally, "after
the boer was gone," squads of tho
army ou liberty wont down to tho
morry-go-round and for a time one
would think bedlam was let loose.
Sovoral of the guards still had thoir
muskets in their hands. In one
saloon a musket and a belt of cart
ridges were taken from a guard aud
handed over to tho police.

Hawaiian Hardware Co., L'i
Saturday, Oct. 14., 1893.
There has been an air of
business along the water front
during the past week that has
permeated a good many of the
stores of Honolulu, principally
ours. The indications are
strongly in favor of increased
trade during the next six
months and we are taking time
by the fore lock and preparing
ourselves for what we think,
will be an era of good times.
Honolulu and the Islands gen
erally have passed through a
period of depression that will
be long remembered ; the
people of the United States
are suffering from a more ag
gravated form of the disease
and the people there look for
relief through legislation while
it has come to us through nat
ural, at the same time, unex
plained course it just came.
The prospect of a higher price
for sugar in the near future
has given the managers con
fidence and they are willing to
expend money for improve
ments and repairs, a fact which
would not have existed had the
outlook not been bright. For
years Hawaii has been depend
ent upon sugar to an extent
that when there was a good
year almost every inhabitant
shared in the prosperity and
when a poor season came
along they linked arms in ad
versitv. To a certain extent
the same state of affairs exist
today, the sugar producer
looks with a bright eye and a
light heart to better times, and
he invests accordingly. The
laborer who has worked dur
ing the past season on the co
operative plan finds himself
better off than he expected by
several hundred dollars and he
yearns for an outlet for his
savings. Diversified industries
on Hawaii are practically in em
bryo ; that they will develope
and be numbered among the
resources of the country there
can be no doubt. When that
times comes, though sugar will
ever remain the leading pro
duct of the islands, coffee and
fruits will occupy such promi
nence that when there is an oft
year in sugar, the loss to the
merchant will be made up from
the money spent by the promo
tors of other industries.
Unless all signs fail this
country will be connected with
the United States by a com
mercial treaty that will be as
great a boon to the fruit grow
er as was the reciprocity treaty
to the sugar planter. Land
that now lies idle will be plant
ed in fruits and canneries will
spring up like mushrooms.
The prohibitory duty on canned
goods entering the United
States from this port will be
wiped out and canned Hawaii
an fruits will be known through
out the world. The prospects
for Hawaii's advancement
among the world's commerce
are brighter now than they
have been for years, and for
that reason we have added
thousands of dollars worth of
goods to our stock during the
last few days.
Notice the stacks of fine
grade "Aloha" and plain cocoa
mats in our show rooms. Our
London buyer hunted England
over for the best products of
the manufacturers, and we
have never had mats of a better
quality of fibre or closer woven
backs than we offer today as a
result of his efforts in your and
our interests. The same may
be said of scissors, we've never
had a larger or more varied
stock of these goods than are
on our shelves today. We
prefer some lines of goods
made in the United States to
those of England and scissors
is one of them. The steel is
better and the workmanship
surpasses the English just as
a French kid Parisian-made
boot excels in beauty the pro
duct of the shoe factories in
Northampton. There's a knack
about the finishing, the polish
ing and the putting together
of American scissors that is
lacking in the British. We
have them for button holes,
ripping, cutting or for dress
making and tatlors use. The
peculiarly bent ones are for
doing delicate work on the
nails. They cut corners on
toe nails so that ingrowths are
entirely done away with.
It is a strange, but none the
less true fact, that another
branch of the cutlery trade is
monopolized by England for
the same reasons that America
controls the scissors branch.
Pocket cutlery from the fact
ory of Wostenholm is superior
to any made in the world. It's
difficult to find a person who
would accept a knife made by
any one else, even as a gift.
We have a show case and
several shelves filled with pock
vet knives from this well known
factory. They're in pearl, and
tortoise shell handles with from
two to six blades, one diminu
tive specimen is suitable only
for ladies owing to the size ;
the quality is the best. Larger
knives with bone handles and
supplied with little tools for
use by campers are included
in the assortment.
Our notice about wire fence
last week brought us inquiries
from all over the group, and or
ders from several plantations.
We can meet the demand now
that the "Pfluger" is belching
thousands of coils of galvaniz
ed and black annealed wire
into our warehouses. The
locked fence is made with this
wire and the addition of spring
stays and washers which are
sold only by us. There is so
much saving in the cost of
erecting the fence and so much
life added to it that compari
sons with the old style fence
are odious. t manager on
Kauai who is using our new
fence puts his posts forty feet
apart and the stays at a dis
tance of six feet. If you've
been accustomed to building
fence and locating your posts
every five or six feet you will
have no difficulty in calculating
the saving by adopting our
new methods. Other people
find it more economical and
there's no reason why you
should not.
Washita oil stones, either
plain or in boxes, are new
arrivals with us, and we have
added also to our stock of in
sulated wire and tape for use
in putting in telephones or
electric bells. Electricity is
one of the branches in some of
the schools in the States, and
there are no doubt many lads
in town who have read up on
the matter and would have put
call bells and burglar alarms
in their parents homes but for
the expense. So far as our
charges for material go this
is an error. Two or three
dollars will pay for the material
necessary for either a call bell
house to your bed room.
The Keystone Beater has
driven every other kind of con
trivance for beating eggs out
of one-half the kitchens in Ho
nolulu and we have enough of
them left in stock to supply
the remaining half of the po
pulation. We have also among
our new goods several hun
dred gross of tacks of various
sizes put up in neat Japan
lacquered boxes which may be
utilized as receptacles for but
tons, hair pins, etc., after the
tacks are used. The price of
these tacks is about the same
as those put up in the conven
tional stiff paper. The quality
is in keeping with the boxes
containing them.
If one style churn is better
than another we have it. If
you want one that will make
butter in five minutes the Am
erican Wonder is the churn you
are looking for. If you want
one that will make just as good
butter, but will take a little
longer to do it we have it for
you. If you want a barrel
churn that will turn out the
golden hued necessity in we
don't know how many minutes,
it's yours for the asking. The
bill will go to you at the end
of the quarter. It doesn't
make any difference what kind
of a churn you want we can
supply you. We have the
wooden spoons for working
the butter after you are
through churning and the
moulds for putting it in shape
for the table.
