"There are hundreds and thousands of people. in the large cities and towns who cannot afford to pay the prices de manded for the best dairy and cream ery butters. Oleomargarine is in every respect better and more healthful than country store butter. Give the middle class a chance to place on their tables an artificial butter that looks like but ter, that tastes better than most dairy butter tastes, and is absolutely nutri tions and healthful. Let there be fair ness in this matter, and a repeal of all prohibitive law3 that work injury and injustice to a larpe number of people."

It is positively learned here that public sen timent in Japan is turned in the direc tion of taking possession of Hawaii. While tbe native Hawaiians still con stitute the largest nationality, 34,000 to the Japanese 25,000, tbe latter have tbe largest number of male adults, being 20,000-to the natives' 16,000. There can be no doubt that a small Japanese squadron -with,!, 000 troops, co-operating with the resident Japanese, could easily overcome any resistance possible for all the rest of the population of Ha waii to make. The safety of this gov ernment against an early conquest by Japan must be in the protection of the United States. Failing in that, appeal must be made to British protection. The feeling of this government is be coming clear that they may at an early day find themselves under the necessity of surrendering these Islands to Eng land in order to escape from Japan ese aggression unless the United States adopts a definite and decided policy of protection. For a week past the papers which support thegovernment have been clam orously attacking Chief Tax Collector Shaw for his alleged offence of taking work from white printers and giving it to Chinese. Shaw states that he gave no work to the Chinese-, but did protect the government from an attempt at ex tortion by three dailies, the Advertiser, Stat and Bulletin. These papers made separate tenders for printing at nearly the same rates. Shaw regarded this as a combination, which he determined to frustrate, and had the tax list printed for just one-tenth of what the dailies had asked. A V 12 it Y RICH 8ILTKK MINK.

Special to the Observer. Monroe, April 22. Mr. " Henry E. Knox and his field corps, of Charlotte, have located for the Seaboard Air Line an artesian well near the freight depot. Mr. Knox is pretty well satisfied after making a thorough survey that by bor ing through the strata of slate under lying this entire region .that an abun dant supply of water can be obtained. The Seaboard will in, all probability have its well bored as soon as possible. The meeting being conducted in the Methodist church by Rev, W. R, Ware will continue this week. He Is doing all the preaching himself and the meet ing is a great success. His sermon last evening from the text: "Whose Image and superscription is it," was an' exceedingly able and interesting one. Yesterday's Observer hit the nail on the head with a sledge hammer when it surmised there was a probability of a union between Union and Mecklen burg. . : , An idea can be formed as the amount of travel over the Seaboard Air Line now when it is stated, that this road. during the last 29 days, has made $47,- 000, clear of expenses, from the passen ger service alone. - i airs, r annie Hynnm, of Kandolpn county, came this morning to visit Mrs. l)r.

A Cartons Principle as to Water Pressure Holding a Ball Against a Nozzle. Firemen and others interested in ex tinguishing fires are interested in the new invention of the Ball Nozzle Com pany, of New York. It appears that when a fire nozzle is made slightly bell shaped the stream of emitting water will hold a ball close to the end of the nozzle, making a spray of the stream instead of jet in the usual fofm. It is claimed that with the ball nozzle the stream can be so sprayed that a fire man can walk behind the sheet of spray from a nozzle right into a burning room. Scientists are trying- to explain the principle on which the waterpress ure holds the ball against the nozzle in stead of driving it away. Dr. Smith's Thirty-Sixth Anniversary as Pastor.

Thurston arrived in San Francisco Saturday.

Bains in Texas and a Depressed Liverpool Market Caused New York to Drop 10 to 11 Points. Special By Private Wire to Harrison Watts. Siw York, April 22. Bains In Texas were largely instrumental In bringing down prices to-day. Kalns In thatBtate were quite general. In some sections they wtre copious, and in others light. Prices here were depressed by tbe decline In Liv erpool of 4 to 5 points. Here and In Liv erpool there was heavy liquidation for long account, and New York prices dropped 10 toll points, and might have declined fur ther but for tbe support given to the mar ket this evening by prominent bulls here. Furthermore there was considerable local coveringand also heavy buying by tbe con tinent. The market therefore rallied and closed firm at a net decline for the day of 3 lo 5 points, with sales of 259.800 bales. Borne of the bulls claim that that the rains In Texas were insufficient. Tbe signal service predicis fer the next 24 hours in eastern Texas, fair weather, preceded by showers to-day, and a lower temperature to-morrow, though warmer weather in the north ern portion with fresh northerly winds.
