late about the project to organize an
association to secure a municipal
lighting plant here, the scheme is not

such a plant which was placed at
about $4,000, and showed just what

quire to be built. The meeting ad-

a committee of representative citi-

and push it further along.

it has not held any meeting. The
work has been going on quietly and
men appointed for the purpose have
been securing signatures of lei who
are to form a Citizens Alliance. who
will advance the matter along later.
It is understood that a number of
names have been secured.

HILLERy AND
COLBY At IT.
Senator from Morris Attacked
the Essex Reformed for
Alleged Statements.

TRENTON. Feb. 14.-Senator Col
by. of Essex county, the North Jersey
reformer. and Senator Hillery, of
Morris, the regular republican leader,
clashed on the floor of the senate yes
terday when the latter took the for
mer to task for a speech he made at
Morristown last week. According to
published accounts of the speech Mr..
Colby had declared that Mr.. Hillery
lacked backbone and was led by the
bosses. The latter accusation Mr..
Hillery denied emphatically, and he
demanded to know if Mr.. Colby had
been correctly reported in the news
papers.
Mr.. Colby replied that he did not
know that it was necessary for him
to answer such a question. He said
he had not reflected upon the integ-
rity of the gentleman from Morris,
but that he had always advocated and
would continue to advocate the cleo
ton to office of men who were abso-
lutely free from political bosses.
Had you me in mind when you
said those things?' demanded Mr..
Hillery.

MRS. POMEROY
HAS NEW IDEA
Will Tour America to Study Beau.
~ of WOmen--May Invoke Law
to Aid Her.

PARIS. Feb. 14.-ArrangenentS for
the tour of Mrs. Jeanette Pomeroy in
America have been made mere.
Primarily Mrs. Pomeroy's object is to
make scientific study of beauty in the
women of the United States, but when
her ideas are put in force they will af-
feet not only the beauty of women. but
will have Il marked effect ON art, litera-
ture. music. architecture. decorations,
marks. streets. indoor and outdoor life
generally.
If Mrs. Pomeroy is right in her con-
illusions that the women of America
are growing less beautiful year by
wear she will invoke national, state and
municipal governments to aid her in
forcing women to become beautiful
whether they will or not.
This invocation of the law may sound
absurd at first hearing, but in America
there are Il hundred thousand children
who never would have any schooling
whatever except for the compulsion of
the law. Why then should not the law
for the benefit Of the nation compel wo-
men to be beautiful regardless of their
own desires?
The contention of Mrs. Pomcroy is
that if sensations are ugly then phys
zeal deformity will result; if sensations
are beautiful. then symmetry of face
and form will follow.
The remedy is simply to surround
women with beautiful objects, dulcct
sounds, palatable foods, beautiful pic
lures, statuary and TO instill into them
correct ideas of living.

Still After Menhinick

Finley, Wash Jan. 9. 1906.
EDITOR COURIER,
Kennewick, Wash.
Dear Sir:
In summing up the letter from
Mr.. Menhinick in your last weeks
issue it appears to me his brain is
not fully developed, or his ribs are
sore on account Of the name Ct cur
town Of Finley.
Now Mr. Menh mick do not feel
so sore. As long as there is life
there is hope. We will soon have
a butcher shop or barber shop here
and will gladly give it your name,
or if you will come here aud join
our community, put your shoulder
to the wheel, we will elect you the
first mayor of our beautiful town
Of Finley and place your name in
letters of gold above the city hall
Now dear readers, Mr.. Menl1 in
lex had an eighty acre lot here.
Being centrally located the school
district bought two acres of his
land to build a school house on,
for which he charged double price
at that time. He has made no
further improvements on his place.
Although he lays considerable
stress on pioneering and 'blazed
the sage brush" the sage brush
still stands here as a monument
to his industry, Mr. Menhenick
also claims the 'out1anders" of a
dozen moons has shOrn him of his
traditions. We really ought to
sympathize with Mr. Menhenick.
He wants the world aud wishes
same one TO fence it for him. The
kind of outl ,nders we have here
is the true tiller of the soil. In
dozen moons they have built houses
and barns, spent several hundred
thousand dollars, mixed with con-
siderable elbow grease, on their
places,
Ou,landers that make farms and
build towns, that improve their
own farms which increased the val
lie OF his neighboring jawbone far
mer He also raised hogs if not al
ways Of the right breed. That is
the farmer that is the backbone of
the country
We had meeting here, Mr.. Ed.
Hanson presiding, when we chose
the name OF Finley. So now re-
joice with me, Brother Outlander,
that our town is named Finley,
also thank your blessed stars that
the town is not named Hick um-
Hick or some other Nick.
