FLAURENcE WARD ARRIVES.

The auxiliary schooner Flaurence
Ward of the Commercial Pacific Cable
Company. arrived yesterday afternoon
at four o 'cloek from Midway Island,
thirtv-six days out. She arrived just
when waterfronters were beginning to
express some anxiety as to her fate.
But the reason for the slow trip is
given by Captain Piltz as due to con-
tinued strong Lead winds and foul hull,
the vessel not having been on the ma
rine railway for about year. There
was no pilikia on the trip. Among
those who returned from Midway were
Mr.. Harley, who has been cable oper'
ator for a year and returns to Homo
lulu to join the local staff.

The following plea for the passage
OF a bill giving authority to construct
an arrigation and over dam across
Snake river at Five Mile rapids has
Just been sent out with the accom-
panying statements, by the Pasco
Commercial club:
A bill which was introduced by
Wesley L. Jones of Washington,
granting authority to the Benton Wa
ter company to conduct a dam across
Snake river at Five Mile rapids, has
passed the lower house OF congress
and is now pending in the senate
says the circular.
An opposition has developed against
this enterprise for the reason that its
possibilities and benefits are not un-
derstood and fear that vested rights
OF the public may be granted to a
private company to the detriment of
the general good.
We believe that all public rights
are amply protected by an Act to
Regulate the Construction of Dams
Across Navigable Wates," passed by
the national congress on June 21,
1906. Ch. 350S. "a, stat. L. 3S6, and
the statutes of the state of Washing
ton.
The plans, construction and op-
Grafton of the canal and locks made
necessary by the dam will be under
the direct supervision of the secre-
tary of war and will not interfere
in any manner with navigation, but
will aid it by overcoming several
dangerous distractions in the river.
1t would require ar expenditure Of
over half a million dollars to put the
channel in as good condition for navi-
CATION as this dam will without a cent
Of expense to the federal government
or the state of Washington.
The proposed location is the only
place within one hundred miles
where a dam sufficiently high to de-
veiop a great amount of power for
irrigation. manufacturing and electri-
cal purpose can be constructed with,
out backing the water over existing
railroads and other valuable vested
interests
The benefits accruing from this en-
terpr'se are various and vast.
/. The navigation Of Snake river
will be improved for number Of
miles without cost to the state or
general government
2. The power developed (estimat-
ed at from 90 to 10000 horse power,
according to heighth OF damn will

The Kansas City Star publishes the
following review of the prohibition
movement throughout the United
States:
Prohibition is making great gains.
North, south. east and west sentiment
against the liquor traffic is growing.
Within the last week three more
counties in Missouri-Boone. John
son and Ray-joined the dry col
umn making 6S counties out of ia
that have ousted the saloons, says the
star.
In Detroit, Mich, the brewers, made
desperate by the growth of local pro-
hibition. nave decided to close 200 of
their saloons when the licenses eX
pire, May l. The comptroller Of De-
troit estimates that at least 1915 per
cent OF the whole number of 1900 sa-
ioons, or about 225, will quit.
Illinois, too, is being swept by a
dry" wave. Headed by what prom
ises to be hot campaigns in Chicago
Springfield, Bloomington and De-
catur, residents of S4 Illinois counties
will vote on the saloon question in
.he spring.
! 1900 Towns to Vote Soon.
Reports from many counties indl-
cate that the anti-saloon adherents
have been successful in obtaining
enough signatures to allow the ques-
tion to be balloted on at the polls. 1t
is estimated that 1900 towns will
take part in the contest
Ernest A. Scrogin, attorney for the
Anti-Saloon league of Illinois, and
district superintendent, declares 1t to
be certain that 80 per cent of the
townships in the counties in his juris-
distion will vote on the question.
There are 1O2 counties in Illinois,
of which 10 already have voted in
favor of prohibition. When the 81
counties vote in the spring there will
be only eight counties left in the state
in which the prohibition question has
not been made an issue 1t is esti-
mated that there are 600 dry" towns

Chicago is to vote on Sunday sa-
loon closing April I, and petitions
bearing 16S,O62 names were taken to
the city hall Friday. Most of these
petitions were circulated by the Uni
ted Societies, and 1t is contended that
they presage a victory for the saloons
in the coming contest.
The Liquor Issue in Congress.
Never before have the saloons and
their enemies lined up with such de-
! termination to make the struggle one
of life and death. Representatives OF
the prohibition party. the Ant-Sa-
loon League Of America, the Women's
Christian Temperance union and the
various Christian organizations ap-
peared Thursday in Washington be-
fore the house committee on the judi
ciary to urge a favorable report on
one or more of the bills introduced
to protect dry" local option districts
from receipt of interstate as well as
intrastate shipments of liquor; that
is, to bestow the right of border line
confiscaton Of liquors shipped to des-
tinations within prohibition districts.
