economical 1 (J. wont to work and
spuut more money in enlisting and
drilling a baud of aliens than tho
"mean ways'" policy would save iu
ten years. Nothing lias more plainly
illustrated tho small-miudodnuss
directing tho P. 0. than the policy
relating to tho public baud.
KEEP HIM OUT.
An elloit ha been made, though
for tin prc.M'iit iiiiMieeo-Hftil, to add
to the I it 1 1- group of oligarchs no
os a ertiii than the editor of the
Stai. Perhaps thi would lie scarcely
worth coinnieutiugon, but for tho
striking sidelight thrown on that
remaikable boly by the incident.
Its geiiosN is theroby unintention
ally illustrated and a untigo providml
of tin righti-niinue of such a group
in seizing and clinging to tho gov
ernment of thU country. Those
nucrol organizations ulsowhero ilo
scribed, who have como to be the
real dictators of affairs, propose to
complete tho visible oligarchic circle
by tho addition of a person not ut
a year iu tho country, who by the
most liberal interpretation of the
most liberal constitution is not enti
tled oven to vote for a Uepreeeuta
tive. A man sent Into tho country
by a foreign newspaper committed
to tho cause of despoiling Hawaii of
her nationality, under instructions
to color everything ho describod of
tho local situation iu tho interest of
that uurightooua cause. This man
hitherto ignorant of and indifferent
to tho country, employed by a news
paporthat has always boon tho bit
tor enemy of reciprocal relations
between tho luitod Status and Ha
waii, is picked up like a contract
laborer to do work for denationali
zation which ho would just as readily
have hired himself to do on tho
other side. By a fairly facilo pen
and a plausible personal addross,
aided by some experience in the
Qnesso of American polities, ho gains
an aHcondancy over tho avoragely
ignorant and unsophisticated rank
and file of the -cret bodies iu ques
tion, mi thr.t tic. run away with tho
idea that tin peculiar qualitios ho
has developed iu tho most rabid
partisan journalism, aud in a species
of showy platform oratory, are tho
kind of talent that thoy need to re
present them iu the P. G. Councils
ho as to maintain aud promote
their illegitimate ascoudauey iu pub
lio affairs. Not to say that Mr.
Smith is not probably ai (it for the
post as most of those already thore,
for ho might indeed in that regard
occasionally afford an agreeable re
lief to the staid and hoiuoi lines
stupid deliberations, lint to plain
inon it ononis a moubtrou3 in
decency to thrust an absolute stran
ger, whoso prowess has been princi
pally displayed ho far by his shriek
ing, "Turn the rascals out," mean
ing, "Forbid the people of this conn
tiy from any shaio iu its administra
tion," to thrust this stranger into
the government of the country. eson
though it be but temporary, is so
iniquitous nnd yet so characteristic
of tho motive power of this oligarchy
that it needs only to bo pointed at
to bo recogui.od. It is to tho ap
parent credit of the Councils that
thus far thoy seem disposed to block
tho way against such an atrocious
accession of alienism to their mem
bership. BEHOLD TOUR RULERS.
Secret socioties devoted to politi
cal objects aro .tho curse of many
countries. Several of those noxious
weeds havo sprung up in Hawaii in
consequence of tho forcible suppres
sion of public opinion by tho P. G.
revolution. Two of them aro tho
Annexation Club aud the American
League Doth have been growing
under false pretousos from their
sprout iug. Tho Annexation Club
pretends to a membership represen
tative of tho people, but has rofusod
many challenges to comparo its rolls
with the list of registorod voters
oven under tho highly roslrictod
franchise for Nobles. It is com
posed largely of a drift element
freshly arrived, which is animated
by no higher motives than thoso
pttroly advonturous. With this ele
ment is a groat proportion of per
sons who havo boon compelled to
join undor ponalty of loss of bread
and butter, and minors who have
boon ticklod with tho precocious
feeling of importance at being asked
to join a political movemont.
Tho organization was probably
intended by some of its moro res
pcctablo promotors to exhibit a pro
soutablo front of annexation strougth
to tho viow of tho United States
Government aud people. It failed
iu this object both by refusing Com
missioner Blount n copy of its rolls
aud by tho misorablo show iu num
bers It made on tho occasion of tho
farewell demonstration to ox-Minister
Stevens. Thou tho organization
was seized by tho unprincipled ad
vent ttrora to whom its running had
been loft by tho few respectable por
iius who helped iu its organization,
as au agency for securing all the
public offices and every particle of
government patronage for its own
members. To this eud it has not
stoppod short of dictating tho poli
cy of tho Provisional Government,
and now in conjunction with its
falsely-named twin sister tho Amer
ican League it sots itself up as an
organic part of tho oligarchy now
ruling this country by stolen force.
It is not necessary to describe tho
false' character of the American
League. Its membership and direc
torate aro to n largo extent Identical
with those of tho Annexation Club.
That its very name is false is proved
by its having as its first ('resident a
man who is not an American, but
who has registered 1i!h nationality
horn as a native of Ireland. There
is good reason for bolioviug that tho
League is but au inner circle of tho
Club, designed for work that it
would bo inexpedient to reveal to
tho "X"-signid Portuguese, the ruu
away sailor and the kindergarten
elements of the Club. At all events,
the Club aud tho League havo as
stiniod a prepoudorrpice iu tho gov
ernment of this country which
amounts really to the fact of a sec
ond revolution within tho year. Tho
tail anil the ears have como to be
moro than tho whole dog. Both tho
Government aud its press are thor
oughly cowed and dominated by
these orgauizatious. Thoso aro tho
bodies who are goiug to celobrato
the revolutionary anniversary to
morrow, tho P. G. having nothing to
celebrate but its owu subjection to
irrcsponcihlo and unscrupulous ad
venturer. Western Civilization."
Tho much quoted "Wostorn Civi
lization" has had its offect iu tho
Hawaiian Islands in othor things
than politics. It has brought to the
shores of Hawaii a class of pooplo
whoso ideas of what is and is not
good for tho comfort of humanity
are obtained through contact with
persons whoso mission ou earth is to
devise ways and means for tho
advancement of art and science as
thoy apply to homo lifo. Old resi
dents will romombor whon tho shops
of Honolulu wore limited and stock
likewise, but wostorn civilization has
changed this and what was formerly
obtained by direct importation by
individuals is practically laid at
thoir door by tho ontorprisiug mor
chant. Tho Hawaiiau Hardwaro Co.,
siuco its iucoption, has beon tho ad
vanco guard in all matters of im
provomouts whoso trend is iu tho
direction of economy to tho con
sumer, and in keoping a day or two
ahead of the timos iu tho mattor of
uovolties. That company was tho
first to introduco to tho plantation
managers tho colobratod Jones lock
ed fenco for offoctually rosisting tho
attacks of stock. It was also tho in
troducerof tho aormotor, acknowl
edged by pooplo who uso it to bo tho
best wind eugiuo manufactured. The
latent innovation by this company
is thu Standard Manufacturing Co.'s
onamol bath goods, which include
elegant porcofaiu lined tubs for
battling, wash tubs aud sinks for tho
kitchen, and handsome wash stands
for tho toilet. It is tho intention of
tho Hawaiiau Hardwaro Company to

THE ELECTRIC AGE.
Installation of Plant of Hawaiian
Electric Company.
Splendid- Exhibition of Engines' and
Dynamos Description of ilia
Various Machines.
Notwithstanding several other at
tractions yesterday evening, many
people responded to tho invitation
of tho Hawaiian Electric C
Co.. to viow
tho inauguration of their lighting
plant. There was a perfect atmos
phoro of light in tho spacious dyna
mo room, fully forty incandescent
lamps being aglow. Uosidos heavy
machinery described below, there is
an elaborate arrangement of gauges,
meters, switches, etc., all of exceed
ingly beautiful mechanism, a de
scription of which would require a
largo treatise on electrical science to
be made gouorally intelligible. Tho
company is not quite ready to sup
ply power, tv noil u is iiiu ui'llhi
will bo again printed by electricity,
as it was for more than a year until
tho breakdown of tho old company's
plant a few weeks ago.
Tho Hawaiian Electric Company
was originally organized iu October,
181)1. with a capital stock of S'JO.OOO.
Tho electric plaut was locatod on
King street aud had a capacity of
about eight huudrod lti-c. p. lamps,
wit h a number of motors used dur
ing tho day time, ntid was worked up
to its full capacity. A bill granting
a franchise tn erect polos and ruu
wires in tho st roots of Honolulu, was
passed by tho Legislature of 1892
and signed just ono year ago. This
franchiso was offorod at auction nnd
purchased by V. W. Hall for tho
Hawaiian Electric Co. lit May of
last voar the company was re-ortrau-
izod and tho capital stock increased
to $1M),000, and the following oil!-
cors elected: win. G. Irwin, I'rot,
dent: Alex. Vouug, Vice-President;
Wm. W. Hall, Treasurer; E. O.
White, Secretory, aud Thos. May,
Auditor. Since thou Mr. May re
signed and Mr. Godfrey Brown has
Iksou elected to take his place. Tho
slock has all been sold and 70 per
cent has been assessed and paid in.
Pour lots have been purchased on
tho Esplauado, on tho north side of
the new market building, corner of
Alakea and Halokauwila streets.
Upon this property, measuring 100
by 200 foot, has been erected ono of
t ho largest aud most substantial brick
buildings in town, nnd well adapted
for the work for which it is intended.
This buildiug is of brick, sot on
stouii foundation ft fool deop by 2
feel thick, btillt ou tho coral rook.
The roofs cover separately tho two
rooms formed by a dividing brick
wall, and are ot galvanized corru
gated iron. Pur tho purposes of light
mid ventilation each roof has a ven
tilator the whole length of tho
building composed partly of glass
aud partly of louvres. Tho roof
trus.'cs are made heavier than usual
for the purpose of lifting the heavy
parts of machinery durintr erection,
examination or reiiairs. i'ho walls
havo been built with a view to a sec
ond storv when required iu the
future. The dividing wall between
the rooms has linen so placed that a
width of fi'J feel in tho clear has boon
uivon to the dynamo and onaino
room, while the other room dovco;!-!
lo mo Donors, coai storage, on-., is
only 11 feet wide Iu tho clear. The
steam boilers aro placed at ono end
of tho room and whon complotod
will consist of four multi-tubular
stool boilers, '20 foot by G foot, tho
tubes bolng 1 inches; capable of
sustaining a working pressure of 120
pounds to thu square inch. They
are of tho ordinary typo fired under
aud roturniug through tho tubos.
Tho smoke stack is D foot 8 inches
iu diameter aud about 110 foot high.
It is built of 1-inch steel plates, and
aftor boiug woll paiutod inside is
lined with brick and bo protoctod by
an annular cap at tho top that no
moisture is allowed to got botweou
tho stool plates aud bricklining. At
presont . but two of tho boilers aro
in placo, these boiug considered
sufliciout for prosout requirements
tho foundations only for tho othor
two boiug built so that thoy may bo
addod as soou as noedod. Tho stoam
pipos are led across tho boilors into
auu along tuo watt oi mo ongiuo
room, tho whole being of ample
dimensions for full capacity of the
four boilers. Tho stoam pipe for
oach ongino branches off just whore
required.
Tho steam engines at present in
placo consist of:
I cross compound condensing Ball
ongiuo of 200 li. p.
1 cross compound condensing Ball
engine of 150 n. p.
1 Armiugton tc Sims single ongiuo
of 100 h. p.
(Tho horso-powor given is for non
coudouslug.) Tho oxhaust pipes aro ho con
structed that tho engines may bo
changod from condensing to uon
coudensiug in n few minutes, or vice
versa, but whother condonsiug or not
all tho exhausts havo to pass through
a counter current food-water heater
boforo leaching tho condonsoror be
ing oxlmusteu into tho atmosphere.
Tho condenser is of tho ordinary
Bhowor typo and takes its injection
water from a series of 5 ten-inch
artesian wolls drilled lu n corner of
tho ongino room closo to tho con
denser nnd air-pump. Tho air-pump
is an ordinary direct acting Blako's
vacuum pump, M-in, steam cylinder,
lH-ln. air cylinder aud 21-iu. stroke.
Besides tho air-pump a small Blake s
sorvico pump is used to drain tho
exhaust pipes ami bottom of feud
water heater, Tho exhaust pipes,
feed -water heater, unudousor aud
ulr-puinp aro of full capacity tor all
(ho powor ultimately to bo dovelop
od by tho four boilors. Tho water
supplied by tho artesian wolls is al
most fresh and in caso of accidont
to tho city water pipes !. intended
to feed tho boilors.
All tho foundations for boilers,
engines and dynamos aro built of
ample dimensions and ou the coral
rock, tho lowor part being of stono
aud tho top ot pressed brick, so that
notwithstanding tho high velocity
of enginos and dynamos whon in
motion, not a jar is to bo folt. In
fact these ponderous machines when
doing their work make as little ado
as so many family sewing machines.
The plans for the building were pre
pared by Mr. C. B. Riploy. The
brick ana stono work was done by
Mr. I. Lisbman, tho carpenter work
by Mr. A. Potrie, tho plumbing by
Messrs. Emmeluth & Co., the boiler
settings by Messrs. Harrison Bros.,
and tho plans for tho arrangetnont
of tho machinery and 'foundations,
logeinpr mm mo Bieam macuinory
neon auu connections were nirnlsn
cd by tho Honolulu Iron Works Co.,
while tho dynamos aud all pertain
ing to tho. electric installation were
furnished by Messrs. E. O. Hall ft
Son, and consist mainly of:
1 self-regulating Thompson-Houston
alternating current dynamo with
instruments for maintaining 2000
lamps of 10 o. p.:
2 compound lEdtsoti dynamos of
low pressure with capacity of main
taining 750 lamps each;
1 Edison dynamo of low pressure
for maintaining tKO lamps or 20
horso-powor for motors;
2 Thompson-Houston low pressure
compounu dynamos, oacli tor main
taining 200 lamps or 15 horse-power
for motors.
Tho lighting capacity of tho plant
is therefore l2-rK) lamps of 10 candle
powor, burning at ono time, while
tho total number of lamps connect
ed with the system '-calculated for
casual aud iutortuittout uso may
safoly extend to several time the
nhovo number.
Tho alternating current machluo
is boljed to tho largor of tho Ball
engines, and whon doing full duty
requires --uii-norso powor to unvo.
The two largor Edison machiuos are
boltod to tho smallor Ball ongino
and together oporalo tho threo-wiro
system to which all lamps within a
radius of throo-fourths of a milo
from the works aro connected. Moro
distant lighting is supplied by the
alternating current machine.
Power for tlay uso is furnished
iroin tb throo smaller dynamos
oporatedsix lo ongiuo formorly
used at the palaw, though this sot
ot machines may bo roliovod or rein
forced by tho main plant at a mo
ment's not ire, since tho output for
lights ami powor is of tho same
character.
Tho low pressure current is iu all
cases carried first to centers of dis
tribution, which arrangomont whou
completed guarantees uniform cau
dle power at all lamps, irrespective
of distance from source of supply.
Tho dynamos aud othor 'electric
apparatus were installed under tho
supervision of W. I. Warrinor, the
company's superintendent.

Saturday, Jan. lii, 1894 .
By the ingenuity of man the
bath room of to-day is made
quite as presentable as the
parlor. In the United States,
where materials are close at
hand, even the medium priced
houses have the bath rooms
fitted with floors and wain
scoring of tile, as fitting ac
companiments to the enamel
baths. But tile floors are not
absolutely necessary to the
comfort of the person who
uses the Standard Manufac
turing Co.'s enamel tubs
Hfbn. f.lK'n !,,. t,:., w
iiiw tuts a 1111. llllllklt TV c
have in stock, some very hand
some patterns of enamel tubs
and some quite plain. The
one we show you in the store
is a good one for comfort be
cause it is broad, broad enough
in fact ior the 14-ioot shark
that died rather than go to the
Midwinter Fair.' This tub has
a handsome relief panel on
the side and an oak rim
around the top, the faucets
and all trimmings are nickel.
Taken as a whole it is a very
handsome and useful article
for a gentleman's home.
We've seen all sorts of ma
chines and contrivances for
sharpening cutlery but noth
ing to equal Frank Walcot's
emery file. A half minute
will suffice to sharpen the dull
est of knives or scissors with
out the slightest injur)' to the
cutlery. For carvers it sur-
passt'S tin; ordinary steel be
cause it requires less time and
puts a better t:dge on the
knife. Tito cmik will find it
indisputisible fur use in the
kitchen in keeping his bread
knife always ready for use.
These sharpeners nave been
introduced by Mr. Walcot, the
inventor, in every portion of
the world where knives are
used. In South Africa they
sell for four shillings each, in
the Colonies two and six pence,
in the United States a dollar,
and here in Honolulu they arc
worth two dollars each but we
let you have them for fifty
cents. Cioods do not always
bring their value in this coun
try. One of the beauties of
this sharpener is its long life;
seven or eight years of con
stant use will not wear it out,
and for tliat reason alone it is
worth its weight in coin of the
realm to men on plantations
who are constantly buying files
to use in sharpening hoes and
cane knives, ror an all round
sharpener it has no equal.
The people who are using
the Colorado brand of lubri
cating oils express themselves
as being very well satisfied
with the quality. Of course
you can get a cheaper oil just
as you can get a cheap quality
of anything else, but who wants
to use an inferior quality of
oils on good machinery.'' A
superintending engineer here
tells that he has discarded lard
oil from the engines under his
supervision and substituted
our Colorado engine oil; this
must be a matter of consider
able saving with lard oil at
$1.25 per gallon. We men
tion oils at this time because
it is the season when they are
being used on plantations.
Our success with the plows
has been on a par with our
oils. No one has ever seen a
breaking plow to equal the
Hendry. Nor has there ever
been invented a furrow plow
with as many points of excel
lence as the Hendry Double
Furrow plow embraces. These i
plows are a necessity on plan
tations. Our stock includes
about everything to be used
where the ground is tilled
and the cane ground or the
juice boiled. In belting we
have the most superior grades
of genuine oak tanned and of
all sizes. We have also the
genuine Helvetia for centri
fugals. By constant additions to it
we continue to keep our stock
01 goods lor the household the
largest in Honolulu, and by
the devotion of care and atten
tion to the selection of the arti
cles for your use we are en
abled to offer them to you at
much lower prices than you
have been accustomed tn.
