Tkoro woro Yo shall alway maintain that no situation justifies a judgo of any civil court iu making a party politi cal speech in public. Ono who ha to hold the balances ovenly in thous ands of delicate matters between tuau and man, and between the in dividual and tho community, cannot hold tho universal coufidouco that ho ought to have after making any such exhibition of partisanship. Ur'er Smith of the Star assumed tho mystic mnntlo of a seer last night, speaking iu awful tones of a secret purposo of 1'rovldonco re garding Hawaii, of which tho audi ence was expected to assume that Walter G. Smith was tho Inspired prophet. All his academic mouthing and dramatic posing was meant to say, "Now, bhoys, won't yo listen to Tim an' his gaug, and see that I got a boost into tho Councils!" VENOM OF THE ELECT. Another refuge of lies was swept away yetorday. One of the argu ments relied upon at tho November m.-ns meeting, as iu tho annexation propaganda at homo and abroad, to provo the iudopondouco of tho Pro visional Government, was that it had been fully recognized by all tho Powers save Great Britain. Tho representatives of the Towers yos torday ignored the invitation and the existence of the Provisional Gov eminent. Only two consuls ap peared at the presidential reception, lint they an reideut business men and pioiioiiiiccd partisans iu Hawai ian politic 1 1 was to bo expected that the morning organ should fnt and ftiinu in mine than ,i column of eiiMjiiounl raillery at tho I nited .St ate j Miuistci as being tho head and front of the national repieseu tatives' olVendiug. Local newspaper readers will recall tho fury of tho same paper and members of its party in the Legislature becauso attention was called in this paper and iu the Legislature to the vilo and iunoltiug allusions ot Minister Slovouft in pub-' lie mldressort to tho Government of this country, friendly a it was in a high degree to his own Government. It is a characteristic of tho clique of which tho Advertiser U tin mouth piece that no aullioiitv, no dignity, uo character is deemed worthy of re iiiocl from tho clique, unless such authoriU. dignity or character miIi jecls itself humbly and meekly to bo tho ally or the instrument of the illtiitiA most Hellish aims and policies. This characteristic of tho clique and all person and organizations that it occasionally briugs temporarily un der its sway for it own purpose, has invariably conduced iu the pu-,1. and may bo expected to do n in tin future, to tho undoing of its pniww soi.i' schemes of nolf'tiggraiidio nujiit at tho coht of ovory legitimate interest of othets that may timit iu tho way. That outburst of malig uaut vituperation against 1'icideut Cleveland and his Government, at tho November mass incut ing, will bo found to hao greatly promoted tho confusion of those who are trying to destroy Hawaiian nationality. Tho curreut attacks on the Ameri can Minister will probably also havo thoir duo ollect in proving to that functionary tho truth of tho maxim against judging by appoaraucos. Thoy let a Hood of light into his mind, which ho may trausmit to his Government, regarding tho truo character of the Hawaiian revolutionists. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE. Mr. Ash Tries to Kill Herself In a Critical Condition. At 8:!V0 o'clock jestorday evening a pistol shot was heard in a cottago on Hotel street, and a few minutos luter it was learned that Mrs. W. 11. Ash had shot horcolf in tho head. Dr. McWayno was spocdily on tho spot, nud ordorod tho removal of Mrs. Ash to tho Queen's Hospital whoro medical assistance was given hor. Dr. Mo Way no then reported tho af fair to tho police, and Captain Langloy inspected tho promises at 8:50 o'clock. Ho found blood along the floor to tho entrance and a pil low in tho middle in a pool of blood. There was a chair by tho piano, as if someone unu noun piuyuiK um in strument, and on ono Bide a rocking chair which had fallen over On a small table thoro woro glasses and oatables, two bottles of beorand one bottlo of whisky. As far as can be ascertained it was a family tioublo. Mrs. Ash had been out all day and mtuined iu tho evening, and Mr. Ash callud her to account. There woro several people iu tlio loom and whou tlie. found matters were becoming too warm, left the lioifjo taking little Delia Ash with thorn. Ash filially left tho house, but had only gone a foiv Mops when lie heard n eliot and on going back found tho woman lying oil tlio lloor. Shu had shot liertoll iu tho head, tho ball penetrating tho riul.t Jaw and lodging iu the left oar. she is lying to-day iu a critical condition. and foreigners in tho crowd. The.ro was n long string of Japanese lan terns enclosing electric lights on the mauka side of tho street, and thou sands of lights in the Executive and Judiciary building grounds and on tlio buildings tuemsolves. 1 no speak ers' tand was supnliod with incan descent electric lights. Shortly before 7 :H0 o'clock a Portu guese band, headed by J. M. Vivas, minus a coat, and a lot of Portu gut'o youngsters carrying torch lights, marched from King street into tho square. Tho only grown up moil in tho procession carried transparencies with tho mottoes: "P. O. aud Portugoo," "We're tho 400," "Liberty aud Union," "No Mouarch In Ours," "America Is Our Goal," "Lily Make Itoom for Your Auti," and "Progresso Uniao Libordado." Thoy marchod in front of the speaker's stand and aftor the band playing a solcction tho kids were uirocleu to tuo cornor oi Kiehards and King streets, whoro tho band at intorvals interrupted tho speakers much to chairman J.U. Atbortou a discomfiture. Aftor a selection by tho P. G. band stationed on the Ewa end of tho speakors' stand, Chairman Ath orton addressed tho throng as fol lows: Follow citizons and ladies, Tho last mooting of citizens in this city was hold on Nov. 28, 1893. It was a protest against tho conduct of Presi dent Clovolnud. and was a docisivo aud enthusiastic gathering. Tho lottor of Secretary Gresbaui was tho causo of biuding into closer relations the men who are iu favor of a good government, against a rotteu mon archy. This meetiuir, fellow citi zens, will fittingly closo tho celebra tion of tho first anniversary of tho Provisional Government, which is sustained by the best aud most trustworthy, not only mou, but wo men, of tho country. The Provi sional Government has been on trial for one year, and is not only mntori alh strong but also financially. This government will stand until lit absorption into the great American I. nion. (b'iro crackers on tho square drowned thu speaker swords.) hen the noise had subsided, however, tho chairman introduced ,1. It. Castle. Mr. Castle felt that there was eiy little to say, but that little should bo said so that it will reach our children's children. What is to be said can bo brielly said. Ono year ago to-day our 'platform contained two clauses, tho abolition of the monarchy and absoprtiou into tho American I nion. On tho '2Mi of last month the .last. nail was driven into the colli n of the monarch, lie foro 1 807, with the strength of our right arms and with steadfast pur pose, tho mother will lake Hawaii into nor own. It lias been said every road loads to Jloino. This U appli cable to Hawaii, and it may bo said, nil roads lead to Washington. Ho wished there was uo other govern ment than tho I'rovixioual Govern ment until the consummation of their project,! :iiiiunlion. Ho want ed no republic but tho Groat Knpublic. On the question of an annexation ho did not think any man of right mind wished for any thing but annexation. It was a very simple question. Tho talk, "You're not out of tho wood," aud "Don't count .vonr chickens before thoy are hatched," which has been hoard in tlio pnt few days emanates from ocoplo who may as well bo royalists. They are enemies. Were it not for the justice of our causo the day would not be observed. It showed cowardice. Muoty-uino years ago the English took these islands, and were it not for the Napoleonic trou bles wo would not bo staudiug hore to-day as an iudopondeut country. ICaniohaiiioha HI. was bom on March 17, and he advocated annexa tion to tho United States. Tho ouly delay with regard to annexation will bo by tho party which uphold slave ry. Tho long liuo of illuniiuatiou out-counts anything tho spoaker had over seen. He ended with remark ing' about someone colobrating his wedding day that night. After a selection by tho P. G. aud Portugucso bands A. S. Hartwoll was introduced to spook on tho legal side of tho question. The spoaker began with: My talk is drv, you know, but is a short one. The do- volopmeut oi national industry is peculiar to no climate or country; wherever you fiud the community civil liberty is sure to come. Tho days of divine right of kings and qucons is gone forever. Tho gov ernment of the Hawaiian Islands on Jan. 17, 1H9.1, was tho constitutional monarchy established in tlio rovolu stablo government. This isle out of the Pacific, inhabited by all nation nlitiert, has peon lit to resist abaolu t'lin and creato a purer form of gov e unieiit. Aecoiding to Prof. Alex a 'dcr' history we havo not had a e 'id government for tho past fow v ais. Wo havo not had a stablo J, eminent, respected by foreign (Civilized nations, within tlio past twenty years. Wo will not haven stable government until wo are an uexi d to our great neighbor. Our commerce would greatly en banco, with our beautiful harbor aud Pearl Lochs, if we ouly had annexation. Wo have been fortunate in getting men iu public oQices who havo the respect of the community. H. Waterhouse spoko fu Hawaiian as follows: Follow citizens, This evening the bright light has broken out in the sky, and everything is clear to us. Y'ou have seen to-day that men with bare foot aud without coats have gouo into that palace ovor there (meaning the Executive building). The only thiug we must do is to go forward, go forward. Attorney-General . u. hmitli said he had been asked to speak in favor of tho Government. lie was proud of tho Hawaiian people and their actions during tho pat twelvo mouths. They do not quilo understand-tin situation and havo been misled, but Europeans in thoir places would havo acted differently. Tho sneaker closed his remarks bv comparing Hawaii to a baby and tho P. G. n n wet nurse, nassintr throned trials and tribulations triumphantly, adding that the Government would be stronger still a year from that (lay. A. G. M. Hobertsou, District Magistrate, spoko about his boing one of the boys, adding that he was pleased to find iu tho present revo lution the boys who told Knlakaua in 1887 to como down off his high horse, and in 18W to Wilcox to come out of tho gasoline tank. Intelli gent inquiry into annexation dis closes tuo fact that tho Hawaiian Islands will not loso independence, but acmiiro ereator indonondonco. Now that thoro is no more monarchy nud uo nobility, I feel that all boys when they grow to manuoou win do good citizens. Tho voico of tho poo pie own tho throno nud not the (jueen. loyalists talked about res toration, but it will never be. While we are waiting for admission to tho United Males, it uonoovo3 us to uo patient and considorato. Finally whon our hopes have boon roalizou, nud crowned with success, wo can Hawaiiaa Harflware Gc, L'ci WHY LDCOL ear. "Tho sun has arison, etc." W. G. Sulilh. cdlloi of tho Slor, wa introduced as ono of tho boys. Ho spoko about tho troublo on Jau. 17, 1893, and nbusod the Qucou. Ho also spoko about Switzerland, Franco and tho wild woods of Aus tralia. Tho Government had lots ot powerful enemies, mouleil men, sonio of whom nro working openly and some secretly for thoir over throw. Tho meeting closed about nine o'clock. A largo number of natives who had gathered to witness the illumination hung around after tho meeting dispersed.

In the United States, where materials arc close at hand, even the medium priced houses have the bath rooms fitted with floors and wain scoting 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 "the tub's the thing." We 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 for the 14 foot shark that died rather than go to the Midwinter Fair. This tub has a nanusome rebel 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 sutttce to sharpen the dull est of knives or scissors with out the slightest injury to the cutlery. For carvers it sur passes the ordinary steel be cause it tequiroa less time and puts a better edge on the knife. The cook will find it indispensiblc for use in the kitchen in keeping his bread Knile always rcauy lor use. These sharpeners have been introduced by Mr. Walcot, the inventory in every portion of the. world where knives are used. In South Africa they sell for four shillings each, in the Colonics two and six pence, in the United States a dollar, and here in Honolulu they arc worth two dollars each but we let you havo them for fifty cents. Goods do not always brim; thirir 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 that reason alone it is worth its weight in coin of the realm to men on plantations who arc constantly buying files to use in sharpening noes and cane knives. For 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. Oi' course ynij ra act 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 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 nave also tne genuine Helvetia for centri fugals. By' constant additions to it we continue to keep our stock of goods for the household the largest in Honolulu, and by the devotion of care and atten tion to the selection of the arti cles ior your use we are en abled to offer them to you at much lower prices than you have been accustomed to.
