HAWAIIAN MEASURES.

There is but little new to write about
the various Hawaiian measures pend
/ ing. Nothing has developed since my
last letter about the refunding BILL 1t
is waiting for suspension day when,
as now Planned an effort will be made
to pass it under the two-thirds rule.
The House Committee on Territories
has ordered a Favorable report on the
telephone bill. The actual presentation
of the report waits on the preparation
of. some figures by Mr.. a. B. Browne,
of this city, who is acting as attorney
for the Telephone Company. The bill
affecting the election of delegate
from Hawaii has been favorably re-
ported and is on the House calendar.
The committee report was prepared by
Representative Lloyd, Democrat from
Missouri.
The bill to permit the sale of certain
property in Hawaii, has also been
favorably reported and is on the House
calendar. The report was made by
Mr.. James Mckinney, of Illinois. (Tug

RETURNS Of
PROMOTION
Sir. Thomas Upton Has
Desire to Visit
Hawaii.

Some interesting returns from Secre-
tary Woods correspondence We're laid
before the Hawaii Promotion Commit
tee at it's meeting yesterday afternoon
Sir Thomas Upton. the chivalrous
yachtsman, in a pleasant note bearing
the colors of his yacht Erin, announces
his desire to visit Hawaii some time
Mr.. Robinson, the park expert, makes
a whole-souled confession for both Mrs.
Robinson and himself that Hawaii had
impressed them into it's service for
proclaiming its charms.
The letters of Sir Thomas Upton and
and other letters in part:
FROM SIR THOMAS Upton.
S. Y. Erin,
Toormina, 23rd April, 1906
Dear Mr., Wood: Your letter of the
18th ulto. has been forwarded to US
here, and I note what You say about
the yacht race to be sailed from San
Francisco to Honolulu on the 18th May
next. What a change has come over
San Francisco since you wrote your
letter. 1t is very sad, and I have been
much upset by this great calamity.
I hope that one day 1 viii be able
to visit Hawaii and to have the pleas
ure of meeting you personally.
With best regards and many thanks
for your kindness in writing me.
Yours faithfully
THOMAS J. Upton.

FREE ALCOHOL BILL
1t has been assured for many days
that the free alcohol bill would be en-
acted into law at this session of Con-
gress Some very jealous advocates OF
the bill began at once to cry that there
were plans afoot to defeat the measure.
Anybody who counseled careful con-
sideration of the bill for the purpose
of safeguarding it and safeguarding
the revenues was at once branded IS
it's opponent. AS a matter of fact some
of the Republican campaign managers
wanted it passed especially for the
benefit it might assure to the struggle

tricts. They began to Delay the New
England members of the Finance Com
mittee-Senators Aldrich and Hale
because New England has not been
looking at the bill so much from the
political standpoint as from the in
dustrial standpoint.
After the animadversions had been
piiing up for d while. both the New
F,7giand senators stated that they Were
favora BILE to the bill. They believe 1t
good legislation, but they are not TO
be hurried into passing a defective
bill Both are very busy senators,
serving on a number of important
committees of the Senate and having
a lot of work also on the floor. They
are disposed to get to the considera-
ton OF the free alcohol bill at an early
day. but will insist on some hearings
that they may know exactly what they
are Going and also that they may not
be blamed subsequently for any unfav-
ora BILE development in the law without

they do not like TO take things on the
sayso of others. The other members OF
the Finance Committee have taken a
similar attitude but as there has been
no attempt to circulate misleading re-
ports about them-Mr. Aldrich and Mr.
Hale. as Senate leaders being more
perhaps. than their COS
Ieagues-these men have remained
silent
1t may happen that the House bill
will be satisfactory to all Senators.

\ Protest Against Higher Postage.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 1.-THE South
ern Trade Press association will meet
here this afternoon for the purpose of
taking action on the proposed increase
in postage on certain publications now
mailed at what is known as second
class rate. Congress recently appoint
ed a postal commission to take up the
matter of increasing this rate, and un-
less the papers of the country take
steps to protect their interests it is
feared the rate of postage will be in
creased. The attendance at the meet
ing promises to be very large, as
there are not only hundreds of MEM
bers of the southern association here,
but also many publishers of newspa-
pers and magazines from northern
and western states.

the practice to issue new instructions
regarding artillery practice as applied
to the coast forts. The new condition
imposes more work than has hitherto
been the case upon the coast artlller-
lists.
They have for the last year had one
week of encampment, when Officers
and men left quarters and barracks
and lived at the rear of their guns
under canvas. The food was cooked
in the open, and they lived day and
night In the attitude of awaiting the
unexpected alarm. This system was
used in order to give every one an op-
portunity to see what would happen
In time of war, when with small
force available 1t would be necessary
to stay beside the guns ready for any
emergency The post commander ar
ranged for sudden calls, which were
intended to represent the appearance
OF an enemy
1t was found that the work was
most profitable, and during the next
year this practice will be extended to
a period OF two weeks. The time al
lowed each day for other exercises
will be increased from one and one
half hours to two bours, and the
weekly inspection will take two days
instead Of one. in order that there
may be a complete examination of the
Intricate mechanism and elaborate
exercises Of coast defence armament,
together with a thorough trial of the
men in their drills. This imposes
much more work than has been the
case, but It is regarded as necessary
by the authorities in order to keep
everybody up to state of personal ef-
ficiency, with thorough acquaintance
with the appliances of coast defence
operations.

CONFIRMED PROOF.
Residents of Pendleton Cannot Doubt
What Has Been Twice Proved.

In gratitude for complete relief
from aches and pains of bad backs
from distressing kidney ills-thous-
ands have publicly recommended
Doan's Kidney Pills. Residents of
Pendleton, who so testified years ago,
now say their cures were permanent.
This testimony doubly proves the
worth of Doan's Kidney Pills to Pen
dleton kidney sufferers.
Henry Williams, of College street,
Pendleton, Ore, says: "It is over
two years ago since I made a state
ment for publication in our local pa
pers, in which l highly recommended
Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at
Pendleton Drug Co.'s drug store.
This lapse of time has only confirmed
and strengthened my good opinion of
this remedy. Before using it I had
been troubled for nearly four years
with dull heavy aching pains across
my loins and kidneys. Colds always
aggravated the complaint and caused
an irregularity of the kidney secre-
tions. I lost a good deal of rest
nights through having to rise at in
tervals, and the annoyance and worry
sapped nearly all the energy out of
me. Doan's Kidney Pills changed all
this, and, as I said before, they are
worth their weight in gold to anyone
suffering from disordered kidneys or
backache."

Eight-Hour Law I'm Navy.

Washington. d. c., Aug. 1.-THE
navy department officials who have
charge of public works are much in
terested in the effect of the law re-
lating to the employment of labor and
the limitation of such work to eight
hours a day. 1t is estimated that this
requirement will mean an Increase of
from 8 to 10 per cent in the cost of
public works. Instructions have been
given to those in charge of work at
the navy yards to see to 1t that there
are no violations of the law and that
all such occurrences are reported
promptly and specifically to the Wash
ington authorities. The law is in
terpreted at present in the navy de-
partment as applying only to the
work itself and not extending to the
production and preparation of the
material which enters into the con-
struction of naval public works. In
the specifications which have been
compiled lately, an addendum gives
special warning of the requirements
of the new law and what is expected
OF government officials I'm the service.

Development Discouraged.


Before an individual, corporation,
state or government can with any de-
grac Of certainty enter into the con-
struction of works involving the use
os waters. two things must be known.
First, the amount of flow at different
seasons ut the proposed point of di-
version, ana, second, the amount of
water which is necessary to satisfy
the vested rights below the proposed
point of diversion. The state, in CO.
operation with the government, has
un ndertaken TO secure records as to
stream discha rge- which to be of much
value must extend over a period of
two to five years At present it is inn
possible to determine what amount of
water is necessary to satisfy vested
rights. which information is necessary
to know If any surplus water exists in
Capital seeking investment in this
line is, therefore, discouraged, and
tho value of legitimate rights very
much lessened because of this uncer-
tainty. Even where n court decree
has been rendered, II may ne upset at
later date unless all who claim the
right to the use Of waters were made
parties to the suit including the state,
as trustee of the surplus waters, If any,
for future users.
All present vested rights will ulti-
mately come before the courts as
water becomes more valuable as a
matter of self-preservation, as al
ready experienced on certain Ore
go nstreams, considerable areas have
been in the courts having their rights
adjudicated for the second or third
time, and perhaps again in the future
as new bitches are built. If a new law
will provide systematic method Of
determining these rights, also the re-
cordlng ana protecuon forever on the
part of the state( it is believed the
increased value would justify the ex-
pense. The certainty of new right, II
permitted, would greatly encourage
new development up to the limit of
the beneficial use to which each
stream could be put.
With the water laws OF the western
states uniform, the troublesome ques-
tions Of interstate rights would be
eliminated
AS the future of large part of this
state will depend largely upon irriga-
tion, which in turn is dependent upon
laws providing = careful administra-
tion over the waters to eliminate the

Continuing the discussion of the
needs of irrigation legislation in Ore
gon begun recently in the Burns
Times Herald and concluded in the
last number of that paper, State En-
gineer Lewis says.
When hut a few rights exist on "A
stream no difficulty over the division
soon as the appropriations exceed the
supply trouble begins. Numerous
bitches are now being constructed to
utilize the flood flows for so-called
winter irrigation" Constant meas
urement OF the waters and police con-
troll will be necessary to indicate when
these canals should be closed and the
regular flow go by to satisfy prior
vested rights.
with the construction of storage
reservoirs, the question is still fur
ther complicated This question will
soon arise on the Umatilla river as to
how late in the spring the government
its storage reservoir.
Mr.. David Eckles reports a trouble
some case in the Grand Ronde valley
whic his typical of nearly all storage
projects on the natural channel of a
stream. and must be relieved by legis-
| lation. IL irrigation by storage is to
be encouraged. The stored waters
were turned from the reservoir into
| the stream channel when needed, with
| the exception of recovering the same,
with due allowance for loss, at his
ditch diversion, but the regular flow
and increased supply was taken by the
bitches with earlier rights taking
water Mt points above his headgate.
The difficulty was temporarily over
come by turning out the stored water
| at HlBll dIiis nIlSdtllb az Il ulSduNdh
| tage.
These difficulties are and have been
successfully met in other states,
whose laws provide for careful ad-
minsitrative system over its waters.
The stored water is measured each
year, and each owner protected by the
state in its use at any distance down
the stream, with due allowance for
loss by evaporation and seepage, re-
gardless as to the number of bitches
diversions between the reservoir and
place of use.
