WILL PROBE into
COST OF LIVING
Senate Adopts Resolution for
Committee to thoroughly In
vestigate.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 1o.-The Sem
ate on Wednesday adopted the Elkins-
Lodge resolution providing for a spe-
cial committee OF seven senators to
investigate the causes of the present
high cost of living. Discussion of the
subject consumed the greater part OF
the days session.
Speed is to be one ,of the most Inn
portant requirements Of the commit
tee for the investigation. "A report
next summer would not do" said a
leading member OF the Senate to-day.
ut should by all means be in by
April or May. so that the people can
get a good understanding OF 1t before
the fall campaign"
1t was stated to-day authoritatively
that all the sessions Of the committee
would be held In this city and that
the Investigators would probably get
q large part OF their evidence from
the government departments. The
Agricultural Department and the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor
have much Information that can be
at once placed at the disposal Of the
committee.
The chances to-day were that the
FIVE Republican members of the com.
mittee would be chosen from list
comprising the names of Gailinger
Lodge, Elkins, Smoot, McCumber and
Crawford. If Gallinger is on the com
mtttee he wifi be chairman and Craw.
ford will not be member. With
0allinger off the committee, Lodge
will be chairman and Crawford viii
be on the list.

ALL DOUBT IS
NOW REMOVED
Electric illumination by September
First Assured --Magnate Viewed
Country and Was Convinced

Mr.. j. G. Robertson of St. Paul.
the hacker and associate of Geo.
Chrysler in the electric light en-
terprise, arrived in the city Tues
day evening, and the next day
took a good look at the city and
the surrounding country, presum-
ably to ascertain just what sort
Of country and how much is tri-
butary to Beach.
The gentleman was apparently
we'll satisfied with the prospect,
for he at once signitied his will
ineness to waive the difference
with the city council and ordered
full speed ahead with the enter
prise. Mr.. Chrysler thereupon
filed his bond with the city aud
itor and telegraphed for materials
with which to begin work.
Mr.. Chrysler and his assistant
have begun the work of wiring
buildings and are already be-
sieged by people to have their
homes wired first of all. When
ever possible, however. they will
wire buildings in course of con-
struction first of all. as the job is
easier and much less expensive to
the patron.
The site secured for the power
house is the southeast corner of
the block west of the Russell-Mil-
ler plant and the building will be
of FIRE proof construction. 1t
will be equipped with an engine
of $50 horsepower. direct con-.
nected to three-phase, sixty.cycle
alternating generator of the latest
type.
Inside Of two weeks the work
will be on in earnest and Mr..
Chrysler promises that if nothing
unforeseen occurs to delay things
Beach will have electric illumin-
alton by the fisrt Of September.
The gentlemen declare that they
will abide by the terms of the
franchise ordinance (which will
appear in full in next weeks
Chronicle) and do business with
our people right. Mr.. Chrysler
will make this city his home and
give the plant his constant per-
sonal supervision.

chandise, and each and every
article sold will be guaranteed to
give satisfaction or the price will
be returned to the purchaser.
One of our special features will
be the BUILDING of both HAIR
NESS and SADDLES to ORDER.
Many people of the Golden VAL
ley, and all the old-time stockmen.
know Mr.. Lucus' reputation as
a mechanic, and as he will build
the saddles and cowboy outfits
himself and personally oversee all
harness work, customers are as
sured a class Of goods that is far
superior to any make of factory
work.
For those who want a cheap
grade Of harness we will say that
we will also carry a full line of
factory harness, enabling customers
to compare the two grades. To
those with whom we are acquaint-
ed we ask you to come in and visit
US, and we ask all others to come
in and become acquainted. We
guarantee you hearty welcome,
reasonable prices and superior
grade of goods.
We are prepared to do all kinds
of repairing, on both harness and
saddles. and do it neatly and
promptly.
All we ask of you is to inspect
our line and get our prices before
buying.
Yours for business,
