We are not making use of this Illus
tration just for the sake of doing so TO
belittle these Hawaiians for being un-
fortunate in not having a sufficient
knowledge of English, yet they were
most fortunate in being elected to this
honorable position in either House.
Nor are we making this expose out OF
pure "cussedness," but rather to show
our strenuous Republicans the utter
failcy of the contentious made on be-
half of their party for "one-tongue
Legislature" by the press on their side.
To do it would be useless and fruit
less, gaining nothing thereby.
One to hold such a position. should
have fair knowledge and under
standing of The English language. The
Legislatures motto should be-"No
nincompoops need apply" Although
ourselves Hawaiian, we do not decry
these Hawaiians for their lack of En-
Egllsh, but more to call the ma Us
attention how the party, had it been
insisted upon, would have fallen into
the pit intended for others. Do give us
lest on the "one-tongue" proposition
in the future and let us not hear any
more of it during the present session.

NEPHEW STEALS THE BODY
OF HIS AUNT.
Took Remains Back East While Uncle
Followed Empty Coffin to Grave.

Pawtucket, R. l., Oct. 16.-Behlnd
the quiet funeral Of Mrs. Adflie c.
Scharpless, which took place at the
Friends meeting house at Saylesville
today, is a strange story Of the Sc
cret removal of her remains from the
original casket and their shipment to
this city while her husband unknOW-
ingly accompanied an empty coffin to
The cemetery at Springdale, Iowa.
Mrs. Scharpless was for fifteen
years a preacher at the Friends meet
in-house in Saylesville, and married
E. V. Scharpless, a Friends minister
of Salem, Iowa, since then residing
there. She possessed a considerable
fortune, and her relatives did not
look upon her marriage as favorable.
When she died a few days ago the
funeral al Salem, Iowa, was attended
by PaWtucket relatives and the hus-
band declared his intentions Of bury
ing her at Springlale.
The details were left to a nephew
who secretly removed the body and
sent the empty coffin to Springdale,
Scharpless will attempt to recover the
body by legal process.

Waitsburg, Wash, Oct. 16.-EnlriI1g
the past few days there has been
something doing in Waitsburg among
tn liquor dealers of this hustling little
burg. Realizing that three emporiums
of wet goods were a trifle too much
for the thirsty ones of this city to
support and feeling the effects of
the competition in lessened receipts,
Martin & Co., proprietors of the ELK
Horn" and Dent Hunt, owner of the
"Mazeppa' combined forces and pur-
chased the stock and fixtures of the
Old Waitsburg saloon conducted by
Louis Grossmiller, late of Walla Wal
la. The transfer took place Thurs
day. The stock will be equally divid-
ed among the firms purchasing Mar
tin & Co., will arrange to move into
the quarters formerly occupied by
Mr.. Grossmiller and wOrkmen will
at once commence the work of remod-
cling the interior. While the work
progresses the firm will continue in
business at the Elk Horn" with the
expectation of opening in their new
location in about ten days.
Mr.. Grossmiiler will leave for Wal
la Walla where he expects to again
locate in business.
Mr.. Burdette Kent, one of our most
prosperous cattlemen will open a
meat market in the building at pres
ent occupied by Martin & Co., as
soon as that firm moves out. Mr.. Kent
is credited with the ownership of a
market in Starbuck and for some
time has been posted on the meat
business here. That the new market
starts off with good prospects is self
evident to all who have given the
question consideration.

Your letter of October 81 TO the
Honorable. the serstary of tie In
terror, has been reCerred to me for
reply. With It you transmit lettar
from C. L. Knox. Of Reno. Nevada,
asking for list Of the lands With
drawn from entry under the Reclama-
tion Law Of June II. 1902. and also ask
ing whether these lands can be located
upon by intending settlers.
Under the terms Of the law, q copy
Of which is inclosed herewith, the aec-
retary Of the Interior is authorized 10
withdraw lands pending survey and or.
animation. These lands can be enter.
ed under the Homestead Act only,
subject to certain restrictions as 20
payment of cost Of water to be used
in reclamation, size Of entry etc. It
has been ruled under the wording Of
the law that homestead entrymen can
make q filing upon 160 acres. but that
later this amount can be cut down
to 40 or more acres, according to the
discretion of the secretary.
In the case of Nevada large areas
Of land have been withdrawn, surveys
and examinations instituted, the gen.
eral feasibility Of the projects ascer-
tanned. and certain details worked ou.
1t has not. however, been considered
wise, to delay construction until every
detail has been thoroughly ascertain
ed and hence what may be termed .
preliminary or partial contract has
been let for the feeder canal from the
Truckee river to the Lower Carson
reservoir, work upon which is now
progressing.
The surveys and examinations have
not yet progressed to point where II
Is possible to ascertain the actual
lands to be irrigated or the size cf
the homesteads When this is known
the fact will be made public and en-.
try will be invited. Pending the deter.
mination of these facts, homestead en-.
trymel can u re eniries subject IL
the Irny s1ns Of the laws and to The
charges which ,Ee secretary may make
at later date. That Is to say, man
may enter upon 160 acres, but when
the plans are finally made this may
be reduced to 40 acres. Before title
can be secured, he must of course, pay
for the water and comply with othe,
| requirements not yet stated.
1t is q matter of regret that it Is
impossible not to make all of th>
plans complete at the outset, but we
are confronted with two alternative.
one Of delaying work indefinitely, thu
other of beginning it in part and deter

is made.
