UNANIMOUS FOR A
GREATER PLAINFIELO
Joint Committee of That City and
North PIainieId Will Push
the Project.

PLAINFIELD, June 16.-Unani-
nous action has been taken by the
joint committee favoring the CONSOLE
dation of Plainfield, Union county,
and North Plainfield, Somerset coun-
ty, and an election for the purpose
will be held in September in both mu-
inequalities.
Plans are now being made to frus-
trate the clever scheme, attributed to
Mayor n. B. Smalley and Corpora
ton Counsel G. A. Reed, of North
Plainfield, whereby the plan would
be killed long before the election day.
Both of these office holders are OPP
posed to the present movement, be-
cause, it is said, the consummation of
the plan would end their reign as po-
litical@ leaders in Somerset county.
Mayor Smalley's administration
favors the speedy construction of a
$140,O00 sewage plant in North
Plainfield, although Plainfield's plant,
which cost $500, 900, is of ample size
for the use of both municipalities.
Should Reed and Smalley be able to
carry the project through there could
be no union, for Plainfield would not
bear the brunt of an additional part.
Friends of consolidation are opti-
mistic, however, declaring that the
people of Plainfield and of North
Plainfield are in favor of the union
almost to a man. Mayor Buckle,
Councilman Buxton and former May
or c.. j. Fisk, of Plainfield, are CO.
operating with former Mayor w. l..
Saunders and Councilman Charles A.
Lee, in leading the fight for union.
Mr.. Fisk, who is president of the
Plainfield board of health, and who is
a member of Harvey Fisk C Sons,
New York bankers, has been appoints
ed chairman of the joint committee
representing the North Plainfield
common council, the Plainfield com-
mon council and the board of trade.
Mr.. Lee is secretary.
Starting July / 1t is planned to
push the campaign, and a series of
mass meetings will be 'inaugurated in
both places. The local papers will
print the views of taxpayers and the
members of the joint committee,
which is made up as follows: Plain
field common council, Ralph I. Toll
les, Frank de w. Randolph, William
l.. Cloak, and Herbert Buxton; North
Plainield council, Frank Krewson,
Edward P. T. Smith, NJ. C. Van Arts
dale. and Charles A.. Lee; North
Plainield- Plainfield board of trade,

where there is no other society for
taht purpose and to arrest delinquent

CONGRESS FOR

Decides on Type of Isthmian
Waterway and Alpf0prlateS
S25,OOO,OOO to Start.

WASHINGTON. June 16.-In com
mittee of the whole the house of con
gress by a vote of no to 80 decided ~
favor of Il, lock canal across the istl-
mus of Panama. the aIhendmept to
that effect being presented by Repre-
sentative Littauer u. ".
If congress had sent a measure to
President Roosevelt providing for the
construction of Il sea level canal on the
isthmus of Panama he would have
vetoed 1t. This statement is made by
authority.
The bill appropriating. $25.00O,OOO to
continue the construction of the Pana-
ma canal, providing that no part of that
sum be used in the construction of q
sea level canal, was passed with the
approval of the president.
With members of congress sitting on
the short steps in the aisles of the
house around the space in front of the
speakers desk, with a large member
ship of the lower branch of congress,
with the galleries filed and with Mr..
Burton (O), pointer in hand, indicating
by charts the difference between sea
level and lock level canal. the house
presented every appearance of the class
room of a great university.
Mr.. Burton had given notice that
when the item in the sundry civil bill
was reached, approximating upward OF
S25,OOO.OOO. he would ask for an hour
in which to present his views on the
lock level type of Panama canal.
He prefaced his remarks by stating
that in the so called Spooner law, au-
thorlzing the expenditure of $135,0OO,-
600 for the Panama canal and giving
the president the right to inaugurate
this movement and carry it to n NC
cessful conclusion, the type was left
with the president with certain speci-
fications and limitations.
at is not fair to the president" he
said, 'and to the executive officers of
the government who have this great
enterprise. in charge to say to them
with one breath, Proceed with the
canal with all the speed you may and
with another breath to say that We
have not yet made up our minds what
kind of Il canal you shall build
"a sea level canal would, in the
Judgment of those who have carefully
studied the subject, cost the sum of
$500, 900 and more and would ex-
haust twenty years and more of time
in building"
He said thirty-four of the ablest en-
gineers of the world We're for the lock
level type, and lie believed their judg-
ment should ~be>accepted.
t Asked how he would fortify the ca.
nal, Mr.. Burton said that if he had the
ordering of 1t there would be not a fort
nor a gun on the whole isthmus. He
would protect it wholly by neutrality
as the Suez canal is protected. This
statement met with n round of APP
plause. When he concluded he was
rendered IN ovation.

CHICAGO, June 16.-John Alexan.
der Dowie, testifying in the hearing OF
the Zion City controversy in Judge
Lands court, told of an instance when
his body and soul became separated
and in his spiritual being he distinctly
saw his own dead body lying beneath
a STROUD.

fighting the liquor traffic in Melbourne
and was regarded by him as Il divine
warning that he was about to die. At
another time, the witness asserted, his
spirit left his body, and the Angel
Gabriel and the Virgin Mary were
present in the realm visited by his
spirit. This narration of life and death
was brought out by Attorney Newman
during his cross examination of Dowie.
Following the vision. the witness
continued, two ~acquaintances came to
him and told him they had dreamed
that he was to be assassinated. Then
while alone in the tabernacle came a
voice warning him to .'arise and CO."
Il went" said Dowie, ''and while on
III way nOliC 4 iGdId an CAHlOSlOH.
The next day found that my enemies
had tried to kill me with dynamite.
The back of the tabernacle had been
wrecked"
Dowie denied in the course of the
examination that he had ever repre-
scented himself as Elijah the Restorer.

by saying that he told his people that
he "came in the spirit and power of
Elijah"
Dowie declared that he had received

casion when he held a meeting of 1000
persons who had been cured of disease.

A RECORD BREAKING YIELD

w. f. Phillips is harvesting his
crop of sugar beets this week, and
dug $50 pounds per square rod or an
average of $4,000 pounds per acre.
this means forty-four tons per acre,
The patch was planted merely for a
trial. to see what Plateau could do
towards raising sugar beets, and
when the average crop all over the
state is less than twenty tons per acre
1T looks as if our farmers might be
able to raise enough beets in this val
ley to let the Grand Valley take a
lay off for a year or two. as soon as
we get our railroad.
Mr.. Phillips saye he has taken no
extra care of the patch. in fact has not
even cultivated it. The beets aver
age about three pounds each and are
remarkably smooth and uniform in
slze.-Plateau Voice.

IT WAS DISH PAN DAY.

Visitors in the city today passing
along Main street were caused to
wonder II the dish pan and a granite
dish pan at that was not the official
emblem of Grand Junction. Every
lady that passed on the street either
was carrying a big dish pan or else
wore a disappointed look because she
did not have one. Investigations
were made and finally the mystery
was solved. Wheatley. the five and
ten cent store man was selling gran
ite dlshpans at ten cents each.
Such rush at a special sale has
rarely been seen in Grand Junction
is seemed that every lady in town,
whether she needed one or not. want
ed one of those pans and shortly after
eight O'Clock this morning the Wheat
ley store was crowded to oyerfiowing
with bargain hunters and shortly
after nine o'clock every pan had been
sold and still the crowds kept coming
Mr.. Wheatley states that he sold 139
of the pans and could easily have
disposed of 1000. 1t is safe to say
that more homes in Grand Junction
have new dish pans today than ever
before in the citys history.
All day long dish pan hunters have
been visiting the store but have left
in sorrow and disappointment. but
all of the hundreds of visitors had
. good chance to look over the big
new store.
1t was a typical special sale rush
and Mr.. Wheatley''s belief in the
value of advertising is stronger than
ever.
In his big red automobile Hi Henry
the veteran minstrel man. attracted
much attention on the streets at noon
during the parade of the company.
Republican orators held a meeting
at Fruita Saturday night. They ad.
dressed a fair sized crowd. There
was no unusual features connected
with the meeting. Everything passed
on very quietly indeed.
