new ELECTRIC
FRANCHISE BILL
MAKES PROGRESS

Senator Coke's bill granting to The
odore Hoffman an electric franchise
was favorably reported on by the Sc
iect Oahu committee this morning
with the amendments suggested at
the public meeting Thursday after
noon, and passed second reading.
1t appeared that the bill would pass
without comment until Senator Brown
offered an amendment which makes il
necessary for the city to first get the
consent OF the legislature before buy
ing out the proposed new electric CONG
pany. Before this amendment had
been passed on, the whole public util5
ity commission problem was bGoughs
into the discussion. ...
And during this discussion Senator
Coke declared that the Hawaiian Elec.
trio company could not be made amen
able to any utility commission, as its
franchise had been acted on by con-
gress. and that certain methods of
charging rates had been fixed in the
act. ITSELF which the. company could
stand on IS contract. -.s:.@
Senator Judd took issue with him
On that point. and quoting from the
franchise act read that any consumer
Oh petition could bring thel company
into court. .#*
They NAV bring them into court,
certainly" said Coke, but that does
not give a commission authority to
rass on the acts of the company. But
wsat | want9to impress now is that
this bill have introduced specifically
puts the proposed company under the
authority of any commission which
may now or hereafter be formed"
Before this. Senator Judd stated
that a representative of the mer-
chants association had called on him
to say that the merchants of the city
were opposed to the passage of the

Calie Hoke Smith, Genevieve Clark and Fay
Hardy Lead the Movement in Simplicity.

WASHINGTON, Sept 27.-Simplic-
itys the thing in Washington now
adays. now that Democrats of the
Jeffersonian cult have come into their
own. Even Washington society
smacks of it, for the women. old and
young, who are shaping social custom
are true Democrats.
And none more than the Southern
women. and none of the Southerners
more than the three girls who this

Smith, daughter of Senator HoKe
smith. of Georgia; Miss Genevieve
Champ Clark. daughter Of the Speak
er, and Miss Fay Hardy, daughter Of
the Representative from Texas.
For one thing, this three VIII have
no formal coming out parties. They
come Of democratic families, who
scorn things too ornate. Senator
Hoke Smith. especially, is known to
have a particular aversion toward the
so-called debut" The formal com
ing-out party, he has said has an un-
desirable tone. In his mind it is rather
like a matchmaking contrivance.
His daughter is as Independent as
her progressive father. She desires
none Of the blaze Of glory when she
goes out in society. She will be seen
at the formal functions, both in
Washington and in her Atlanta home,
but without the formal debut. She
will be in Atlanta much Of the fall

by Woman Interested in
Election.

NEW KENSINGTON. PA, Sept. 81
Mrs. Harry X. Bernhard. who con-
ducts a small store in this city, may
never have devoted much time to
women's suffrage, but she surely voted
her "old mans" ticket at a special
election here to-day.
When Bernhard came home the
little wife told him he must vote for
the consolidation of New Kensington
and Arnold at election. While he
promised to follow his wife's instruc-
tons his manner created distrust
Mrs. Bernhard was up with the
birds and, carrying a baseball bat as
a persuader she marched down to the
polls with her husband and stood
there while he voted. She broke the
election laws by making him show
her the ballot, which she folded her
self.
