OUR GREED

We believe in reliable goods of
known worth.
We believe in fair and honest
profits.
We believe in selling goods
for spot cash only, that we may
not be compelled to make up on
one what we would lose on an
other.
We believe in treating every
visitor with the utmost considera-
tion-no matter whether they
buy or not.
We believe that marking
goods in plain figures at the
lowest possible price is the only
right way.
We believe in advertising and
doing exactly what we advertise
TO do.
We believe in giving salts
to our customers, feeling that
they are not only the best, but
truest, advertising mediums.
We believe modern progressive
merchandising means more thar
the mere buying and selling
Of commodities. 1t seeks tC

"CuckOOs' Of lesser magnitude who never express
an opinion on public matters until they know
that 1t rs ndOrsed at the White House All OF
these initiative statesmen condemn the Carlisle

for the benefit Of the Senate and House, ana was
very severe In his criticism of the Secretary for
offering his cOld-water advice 10 Congress just
at this time when the interests OF the Demo
cratic party required that the bills should pass.
Those who would be most likely TO know say
that Mr.. Carlisle sent the letter to the Senate
upon his own responsibility. because ne reared
the Senate by some combination might repeal
the sugar schedule and leave him without the

MIR. BECKER SAYS HIS COMMITTEE WILL REPORT
IN FAVOR OF AN INCREASED REPRESENTA-
TON IN SENATE AND ASSEMBLY.
Albany. Aug. l6-Chalrrnan Tracy c. Becker. OF
Buffalo. who Is chairman OF the committee which
has charge OF the proposed amendment providing
for Legislative reapportonment, to-day consented
FOR the first time to talk on the work OF the COM
mittee far II has advanced. He sad:
The committee has under consideration a proposed
amendment which was formerly introduced In the
Convention which provides that the Senate shall
consist OF fifty members and the Assembly OF $50
members. So much OF the amendment has already
been adopted by the committee. This proposed

TO provide afirmatve.y that this enumeration should
be made under the direction Of the Secretary OF
State. because Il was thought that this provision
would prevent any attempt by the Legislature to
favor partisan ends by vestlng the duty OF taking
the enumeration. which requires the appointment
OF a large number OF enumerators In some officer
person TO suit Its own partisan purposes. and
also to avoid controversies which have heretofore
occurred between the Governor and the Legs.a ture

CONGRATULATIONS TO HAWAII

THE CUCKOO" MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE COM
MrTTEE on FOREIGN AFFAIRS BACK DOWN.
Washington, Aug IG tSpecial).-The majority OF
the House Committee on Foreign Affairs Is slowly
and grudgingy receding from its unpatriotic and
ridiculous attitude toward the Hawaiian Republic.
The cause OF this Is not obscure. The cuckoo
chairman Of that committee has been notified
by many prominent and influential members Of his
party. that, unless some action should be
taken by the committee on the Boutelle reso!u-
lions and reported to the House. steps would be
taken to compel 1t. Mr. McCreary seems 10 have
realized. at last that his srnothering tactics could
no longer succeed. and he accordingly called a
meeting of the committee to-day. and submitted a
substitute for the Boutelle resolutions. which at
the last meeting he had declared TO be superseded
by the action of the Executive. The substitute
provoked spirited discussion. but all amendments
were rejected by party vote, and the substitute
was then unanimously ordered to be favoraby re-
ported to the House. 1t is not unlikely that the
resolution will provoke some debate and that an
amendment may be offered to incorporate the idea
that the United States recognizes the business OF
the cause of the Republic Of Hawaii.
The substitute adopted by the Committee
Foreign Affairs reads as follows
Resolved. BY the Senate and House Of Representa-
tives of the United States Of America In Congress
assembled. that the United States of America con
assumption of the powers. duties and responsible
ties Of such government as Is indicated by the re-
The Joint resolution was adopted as a substitute
for that introduced several weeks ago by Mr.. Bou-
tee. of Maine.
The four members OF the Royal Hawaiian Com
mission who came here to secure redress for ex-
Queen LiuOkalan or to prevent the recognition
OF the new Republic started for Honolulu via San
Francisco last night.
Whatever the exact nature OF their mysterious
mission to Washington may have been. 1t seems
certain that 1t was a complete failure. Announce.

duced himself to Secretary Gresham. and simply
had the hearing In the public reception which
would be accorded to any private citizen
foreign visitor calling on personal business. There
Is every reason believe also that the royal
ENJOYS failed to the President before his de-
parture for Buzzard's Bay. II they did get adj
mission to him. II must have been late last night.
as up to the close OF official business at the White
House yesterday they had not been received
The position understood to have been taken by
the State Department was that when the United
States Government offered 10 restore Liliuokaani,
on condition Of granting general amnesty. and she
refused that offer, insisting upon taking OFF the
heads OF the chief members Of the Provisional
lations with the ex-Queen as terminated.
