OUR MONOPOLISTS
Tho Advortiser seems surprised to
find that our business men do not
beliove in granting exclusive fran
chises for a cable nor any other en
prise for that maltor Tho average
business man everywhere believes in
a fair field and no favor Ttio weak
ness this host Government these
islands ever haddiphyed in grant
ing to Colonol Spaulding of all per
sons tho cable franchise alienated
tho good will of moro than one of
Its friends The Colonol is ono of
those men who takes everything in
sight aud pives as littlo as possible
in roturn After making a fortune
in these inlands to what thing can
even his friends point as au expres
sion of the Colouols librality for the
public good He elects to scatter
his fortune iu the gay capitals of
Europe aud has tho impi donee to
ask for a cable that ho may tall it in
order to spend more abroad
The cream of tho Advertiser in
terview however is tho opinion
expressed by Mr O M Cooke who
by tho way intends to follow the
Colonel in living abroad Mr Cooko
think thit tho Colonels franchise
should bo extended for a year and
in an innocent looking parenthesis
he suggests that Mr P O Jones
franchise to float bonds should alo
bo extended Much may ba rightly
said impugning tho inotireu of mou
but notoriously self seeking persons
may not road tho baby act to
Rcroen tbdmselves from their dupes
It is rotten apples to steamboats
that Mr Cooke has a moult d inter-
oat in both Co1 5uldtitfi and P
C Jones scheme1
WHO DOES THIS DKSOB BE
Thoro is in fact a sentiment pro
valont in tho community which
arrogates to human conduct a
standard of right above aud
pqndent of human lawn and it -
males tho eorisoioneo of ea di indivi i
n II d r l I
uum iu ouuiuij kuu vuni vi urn utvit
ncoouutabili y to tho laws of the
laud While thof o who ohorlsh thin
dogma claim aud enjoy tho protec
tion of tho law for their own life
and property they are unwilling
that tho law rhould bo operated for
lb protection of the constitutional
rights of others It ia a sontimont
BomiroliKious iu its developemenl
and it is almost invariably character
ized by intolerance and bigotry
Tho leaders of those who acknowl
edge its obligations and advocate its
sanctity are like tho subtilo prehles
of tho dark ages Thoy are versed
in all they consider usoful and
sanctified learning Trained iu cor
tain schools in Now England to
manago word they ore equally suc
cessful in the soaial circle to manage
hearts seldom superstitious thorn
selves yet skilled in practising upon
the superstition and credulity of
others false as it is natural a man
should bo whoso dogmas impose
upon all who aro not saints accord
ing to his creed tho necessity of
being hypocrites selfish as it is
natural a man should bo who claims
for himself tho benefits of tho law
and tho right to violate it there
by denying its protection to
others
TOPICS OF THE DAY
Take notice that tho books of tho
Tax Assessors open to morrow for
tho last lime On Monday the Tax
Appeal Board will bo iu session
The Tax Assessor as far as we can
learn has not called the attention of
tho taxpayers to tho fact that tho
tax books were oponed to inspection
Heretofore it has beon customary
that such notices were given through
all tho newspapors and in the out
lying districts through poser At
one time Assessor Ah Shaw publish
ed tho delinquent list oftaxpajers
in the Chinese newspapers This
year ho hasnt ovon published tho
usual nolicoin regird to ovoutual
appeals from his assessment It
seems as if -Mr Damon the Iiosh of
the Tax Dopmjtment is afraid of ap
peals from tho assessments of his
omployee We aro surprised to see
Mr Damon approving a scheme
which will probably deprive manj
Hawaiian taxpayers of a just hearing
and a jnt taxation The plantations
and the planters aro not troftted that
way uudor our best government
Tho morning paper is trying very
hard to cast slurs on Mr Boardman
and tho immigration company re
presented by him Tho facts aro
that Mr Boardman as agent for cor
tain planters here and recently for
n certain immigration companyful
fillod his agreomont by bringing bv
tho Toyo Maru the number of Jap
anese contract laborors bargained i
for The steamer chartered to bring
tho laborers had a porfoat right
under its own responsibility to lake
any other class and number of pas
Bongors A numbor of free Jap
anese tool passage and arrived hero
mont Mr Chester Doyle and Mr
Furuya went to the immigration
dopot to intorviow tho students
They returned with a report that a
number of tho men did tint possess
fifty dollars bona flih The Advor
tiser jumps to the conclusion that
tho raonoy produced by the stu
dents havo beon furnishod through
sources known to Mr Boardmana
company and it indulges in certain
threatening language which poems
to omauatp from tho quill driver of
an opposition immigration eompauy
The Independent has at all time
beon opposed to Tapanoso immigra
tion If wo aro to add commercial con
troversies and fraudulent competi
tion to tho other evils we had better
mako a dooidod movo and demand a
full stop as far as Asiatic immigra
tion is coucorned

TOBACCO HABIT CURED
HON It V MORKllOUSnS TKST1
MONY
Tho romarkablo cflects of tho
Ilagoy Cure as applied by tho
in3tituto established in this city
for tho disenso of using tobacco
is vividly sot forth in tho com
munication that follows Coining
from a man of such prominonco
as Mr Morehouse is tho testi
monial speaks volumes for tho
euro
San Josk Sept 20 1893
President of the Hagey Cure
Dear Sir Without solicita
tion and in tho full conviction
that tho truth of tho Ilagoy
Cure as applied to tho tobacco
habit should bo publicly known
from ono who has tried tho
troatmout and knows its ofiicacy
I tako this means of thanking
your company and at tho same
time informing thoso who tlosiro
to quit tho habit of tho use of
its forms of your wonderful
remedy I took your remedy
only eight days while I was in
formed by your physician that
two weokss treatment was neces
sary to insure a euro I learned
to uso and acquired tho habit of
chewing and smoking tobacco
whon a moro boy and havo often
tried to quit tho uso of tho same
since I reuchod manhood and
while 1 found it easy to stop
chewing and smoking I still de
sired to chow and smoko and
I found tho effect of quitting
tho uso of tobacco was to mo
moro injurious than the uso of
it Now I neoded something
that would so ovcrcomo tho ofiect
of tho long uso of tobacco upon
my nflrvous systom and at tho
samo time destroy tho desire to
chew or smoke Your euro has
dono that Aftor about six days
uso all desiro to chow or smoko
was gono and my norvous sys
tem instead of being disturbed
by tho non use of tobacco scorn
ed to bo rostored to health and
thoro was no unploasant oifect
of any kind in fact tho only
uesiro was to eat una my appe
tite for food was simply raven
ous Tho truth is that your
roincdy is perfect and any per
son who will honestly try it
With determination to quit tho
uso of tobacco will succeed Of
this thoro is no doubt As to
tho offect of tho remedy while
using it 1 can only suy that
thoro is nothing dangerous or
unpleasant about it No ono
need fear that bo will bo poisorf
cd or injured Ho may oxpori
enco a peculiar sensation about
tho eyes while under tho influ
ence of tho modicino but this
passes readily away and is of no
consequonco and will do no
harm I write this of my own
accord in hope that tobucco
users who desiro to quit tho
habit may know that your
remedy will euro thorn and be
cause you justly desorvo groat
credit for giving to mankind a
remedy to onablo him to roliovo
himself from tho curse of oithor
an inhoritod or acquired at
potito for an injurious wood to
thoso of a norvous organization
or sedentary occupation I do
not Avish to bo considered n
moralist on tho effects of tobacco
upon tho human systom I only
know it hurt mo I desired to
be rid pf tho habit I am rid of
it Your remedy onabled mo to
master tho habit
and fioo my
self from its injurious ollbets
I know it will onablo othors to
quit tho uso of tobacco if thoy
want to quit for tho remedy
kills tho desire to chow or smoko
and restores tho norves to thoir
normal condition and loaves tho
man in that condition that ho
needs only tho will to quit tho
tho uso and the habit is gono
You desorvo success You will
succeod and although thoro is
a puorilo sontimont
among peo
ple that tho uso of any romody
to quit a habit is an ovidonco of
montal woaknoss and ulso many
persons engaged in tho produc
tion manufucturo and sulo of
tobacco may fool that thoy owo
it to themselves to opposo any
romody which may liborato tho
victims of tho tobacco habit yot
this intelligent ago will prompt
people to caro littlo for tho
opinion of othors Avhon thoy
know tho blessings to bo ac
quired by relief from tho curso
of a habit or disoaso I write
this that you may uso tho same
as you may deem best caring as
1 do more for tho truth than 1
do for criticism
Truly yours
