a committee named from those present
at the luncheon.
George W. Smith moved, as the sense
of the meeting, that the Legislature
appoint a joint committee from both
houses to take up the Waikiki reclama-
ton scheme.
Senator Smith favored the Cooper
motion, which was seconded by Repre-
sentative Rawlins. who pointed out the
sanitary aspects of the Waikiki plan.
Upon the matter of expense, Editor
Smith suggested that Congress might
be induced to insert an item for a
drainage canal in its next Rivers and
Harbors bill, and thus carry out the

as providing the bureaus of irrigation,
etc Congress, in choosing this as a
place for garrisons, would want to have
it hea1thful.
The Cooper motion prevailed, with
amendments empowering Mr.. Pinkham
to name his own working committee.

that work ruin. Now because we
hunder hundreds of these garments
weekly we naturally know the best ma
terials to use to give the best satisfac-
ton to the patrons. We would not
think of using soap containing a bit
of I've on ladies' clothes. We would
never dream of using the common blu

do not buy them. We keep studying
and experimenting all the time, in a
scientific manner, how to launder.
Don't you think it would be safe to

Senator Dubious Makes Appeal TO the
Voters Of Illinois

Aurora, Ill--Senator Dubois of Ida
no this afternoon addressed 1900 peo-
pie on the probability Of the spreading
of Mormon political power TO all parts
of the United States He urged his
hearers to use their influence with con-
gressmen to prevent the continuance of
polygamous marriages, which, he said,
were still made among Mormons.
The Mormons absolutely control
Utah now politically, and a United
States senator. governor or congress-
man cannot be elected in Idaho or
Wyoming against the wishes of the
Mormon church They are the great
balance of power in Oregon, and will
soon control the senators in that State.
They are beginning to be very power
full in Nevada Unless checked they
will become the balance Of power in the
