Dung LaQ1eS masquerade.
The recent masquerade ball given
by the Young Ladies' Club proved to
be one of the most successful affairs
of the season. 1t was given at the

function by Palisadians. The hall
was appropriately decorated and the
music fine. The costumes were very
attractive, many of them grotesque
and humorous, and the happiest feel
ing existed throughout the entire
evening, refreshments being served
at the midnight hour. A partial list

The stock food problem is one of
the most serious in the world. The
algaroba meal industry will solve that
problem, as this meal is much higher
in food value than rolled barley, and
with the Renear system can be pro-
duced for one-third the cost of barley.

by preventing Andrews giving his opln-
ion.
my answer to that led to the insult
from him which caused little tumult

that that l called Mr. MeStoeker S at
tention 10 the fact that Andrews was
still remaining in the room, and re-
quested that he leave He did at that
time leave.
1.-The grand jury still insisted that
they had the right to have Andrews
there, or any counsel that they desired.
/ told them they had no right. / told
them if they could not take my word
in the matter they must go before
Judge Cooper and get the law from him.
l said I would GO up and report the
matter to Judge Cooper and they came
before the Judge. The court held they
had no right to call in counsel.
"The affair in the grand jury room
lasted some time and there was consid-
cradle bitterness shown toward me by
some members of the jury.
1.-The trouble was that the position
taken by my department was that there
was no law under which Lane could
be proceeded against other than what
proceedings had been brought against
him in the district court. and it was
to get something else to proceed against
him that the grand jury wanted An
drews in there, to proceed against
him.. -
A Slight Correction.
At this time Judge Cooper interrupt

pending before the grand jury which
had to DO with the findings OF the in
dictment against Lane. The judge

Not Out Of Debt.

Mr.. Tennev was asked concerning the
status of the Wahiawa Water Company
and the government, it having been re-
ported that the company had not play
ed fair with the government in the
matter of rental and bonus payments.
The conditions of the Wahiawa leases
include a ten per cent. bonus of all
dividends in addition to the stated an
nual rental. The company,s paid in
capital Is $4,000, the dividends to
date have been $4,000. and the surplus
down in the books is $4,000. The
government gets no share of the sur
plus and the inference was that this
$4,000 was beng carefully laid away
instead of appearing as dividends.
''There is no surplus, Mr.. Tenney
explains. "Such thing may appear
on paper but, as a matter of fact, the
company is still in debt. A large part
of the paid in capital was in cash
equivalents for water rights The COM
panv proceeded ON money advanced on
open account by Castle 4 Cooke and
this money has not all been repaid. At
the end of November and Mr.. Ten
ney consulted balance sheet, the
Wahiawa Water Company owed Castle
& Cooke over twenty thousand dollars.
There is debt outstanding, not a sur
plus of profits.
Mr. Tenney also denied that Mr..
Wilmington had been retained to look
after this particular matter in Wash
ington. He also seemed to be under
the impression that John T. McCrosson
was being made, in a measure, cats
paw of by others.
"The scheme. | believe. is one hatch
ed up by E. NJ. Watson and Frank
Thompson he said, land they have
taken McCrosson in with them and used
his name on TIE bill.
Mr. Tennev was asked if he believed
McCrosson was a man who wanted to
grab or take something that he did
not own.
''Well, if congress passes his BILL
and the decided accent went on the

he will own. that will be the water

Surveys Erroneous.

When Mr.. Iennev was shown the
letter written by Judge Wilder, he said:
''lt Is quite true that the Wahiawa
Water Company has never been grant
ed any rights to the water of the res
ervation by the United States govern
ment. What the company has been
granted is the water contained in Ger
tain territorial lands, according to the
land boundaries as they appear on the
official territorial maps of Oahu, and
the water nights on the reservation for
merly included III the DOwsett ranch
lease. The war department gives US
the right to back water up upon the
reservation in the gulch, provided we
bridge our reservoir or bitches when
ever and wherever called upon.
1t has been recently discovered
that the head waters Of the north fork,
shown on the map to be on territorial
land, are on the reservation. Further,
the intake of the homesteaders ditch
the Wahiawa Water Company had to
construct as part of their lease CON
dltI0ns, is on the reservation and the
ditch itself cuts the reservation lines
in places.
Are we, after having spent our
money in good faith, after having
developed a large section of country.
after having constructed large works
and shown our scheme to be a good
one, to be robbed now of the fruits
Of our toll? The McCrosson bill pro
vides for furnishing the military post
with a water system. The Wahiawa
Water Company viii do the same, and
we have all our resources there de-
veioped to show that we can carry out
the conditions -

much for any talk of steal or grab

show you that it does not propose to
give this water away for nothing. In
return for the privilege of taking and
using this water, it will be obligatory
upon McCrosson to furnish free of
charge all the water needed for post or
encampment purposes and to construct
and maintain a suitable pipe line and
reservoirs therefor.
1.-The local Legislature has no more
to do with the military reservation than
it has with the appointment of our
judges, and consequently action by that
body would be as useless in the one
case as in the other.
L ut statement That NICHOLSON kept
the bill up his sleeve and sprung it as
surprise on the unsuspecting public
is not correct according to my informa-
ton. which is that the matter has been
pending before the war department at
Washington for some months; that the
agents of the Waialua company have
been cognizant of that fact; that they
specially retained Judge Hatch at
Washington to buck the proposition,
and that Mr.. Wilmington, for them.
made a trip to Washington in connec-
ton with the project. Ny understand
ing also is that until the war depart
ment had approved of the project the
bill was not to be introduced in CON
gress, and | assume from the fact that
the bill has been introduced that such
approval has been secured. although /
have no definite information on the
matter one way or the other
~ agree with you that. if the bill
can not stand the test of intelligent
criticism, it should be defeated or
amended. but that criticism. in my hum
bic judgment, should be presented
through our Delegate to the committee

torious one, what is the objection to IL!

The body OF Miss Anna Wendler Of

heavy dent in her forehead strengthens
the opinion of officials that she was
murdered.
Miss Wendler left her home to

started back when she met death. Her

on the river bank about two miles
from Usage City this morning. Beside
them were a pipe and package

Whether killed at the place where
her effects were found and carried

FIRST BOAT GOES
TO ROOSEVELT
TWO MESA MEN GO IN RoW6oAT
BY WAY OF CANALS OF IRRl-
eating SYSTEM.

PHOENIX. July 1.-The first trip
ever made by Reesevelt to Mesa by
way of boat was that of yesterday
when Roy Thorpe and James Craw-
ford arrived in Mesa by way of the
Mesa canal. having made the entire
journey from the dam site by means
of an ordinary row boat.
The original idea of the voyagers
in making the trip was to enjoy the
sensations of going over a route that
is seldom freQuented and also attempt
ing a feat which has never yet been
least two parties have made the trip
by boat from Roosevelt to Granite
Reef. but the making of the entire trip
by water from Roosevelt to Mesa is a
record.
The row boat which was used
throughout the journey was in a very
delapidated condition at the end Of the
trip. Before the start was made three
bottoms had been placed in the craft
and one of these had been worn
through by the constant friction with
the boulders and sands found in shall
low waters. Many times the men were
compelled to lift their craft from the
water and carry it over obstacles and
at othed times had to haul it along
the sands
After leaving Granite Reef the boat
was placed in the south side canal and
followed it until the division gates
were reached yesterday about noon.
The remainder of the trip was made
by. way Of the Mesa canal.
One insident OF the TRIP was that
just prior TO leaving Roosevelt one of
the men exchanged a faithful dog
TO which ne had become attached. for
a puppy. The idea being that the old
er dog would be entirely too heavy for
the craft. The dog. which was left at
Rocsevelt. n some manner chewed the
rope in two with which he was tied
and followed his master the entire dis
tance. arriving at Granite Reef but a
few hours after the boatmen had left
Those who understand the Salt river
will recOngnize that the feat performed
by the dog is even greater than that
by the men. Coming through Box can
Yen necessitated the animal swimming
for a considerable distance, while the
falls this side Of Mormon Flat would
offer many obstacles. The men are
well pleased with their adventure. but
have no serious intention of attempt
ing TO go INTO competition with the
stage company. nor did they attempt
to break any speed regulations.

WAGES FAII. To
KEEPPACE WITH
LIVING EXPENSE
Republicans and Democrats
Do Not Agree as to the Cost
Of Living Between 1900
and 1910,

WASHINGTON, June 25.-Republi-
cans and Democrats do not agree as
to the cause in the increase in the
cost of living between 1900 and 1910.
The majority report of the senate com
mittee which has been investigating
the question was presented TO the
senate today by Chairman Lodge. A
meeting was held prior 10 the pre-
sentation OF the report in which the
minority members protested vigorous
ly against the character Of the find
ings.
Concerning the advance in the cost
Of food, the report says:
''The supply OF government availa-
BILE land for general farming has been
materially reduced and the ranges
are being rapidly cut up into homes
for settlers. The cost of producing
livestock has been materially In
creased"
Concerning retail prices. the report
shows that in the United States in
the spring of 1910 they we're at the
highest point in many years. AS com
pared with the spring of 1900. prices
for bacon were more than 20 per cent
higher, ham 33 per cent higher, tlour
about so per cent higher butter
about As per cent higher, sugar about
II per cent higher, and eggs 100 per
cent higher.
Practically no articles OF food were
lower than in 1900. Furniture was
about the same as in 1900 Earthen-
ware was slightly lower Shoes and
clothing were considerably higher.
Wages have not advanced as rap
IDLY as have prices" the report says,
and salaries have advanced but lit
tie during the last ten years"
Hours Of labor in practically all
wage occupations are shown to have
been reduced. This reduction af-
fected the weekly earnings Of en-
ployers for the reason that the large
majority of wage earners are en-
ployed on the piece basis or at an
hourly rate. From 1900 20 1907 full
time weekly earnings advanced 17.s
per cent There are no figures for
years subsequent 10 1907.
The tariff is discussed at great
length and the conclusion was reached
by the majority of the committee
it had been mo material factor I'm
causing the advance in prices during
