Prison While in Office.

Leavenwrth, Kan. Dec. 15.-The COM
within five or six years is one Of the
achievements that Thomas w. Morgan,
warden. hopes to see accomplished in his
tenure of office. The warden has re-
turned home from st. Louis, where he
spent some time in consultation with
Eames & Young. architects of the prison.
He announced that all technicalities had
been SO arranged that nothing would in
terrupt the construction work planned for
the winter and summer by William Car
roll, the new superintendent Of construc-
ton.
Recent disclosures and the visit of an in
spector clearly proved that there was

ing hampered and much to the detriment
of those who hoped to see the prison soon

BIG PUBLISHER
HELPS fight
FOR SUGAR

A. B. Arleigh has received from J.
F. Mason, the president and treasurer
of the great Dodge Publishing Com
pany, the following letter dealing
significantly with the sugar tariff
fight: I'D. -. -.
New York, April 8, 1918.
Mr.. A. B. Arleigh, care A. B. Arleigh
G. Co, ltd, P. o. Box SIC, Homo
lulu, T. HI.
Ny dear Mr. Arleigh:-I have your
kind letter of the 25th of March, and
can assure you that l will do all in
my power to call attention to the dis
satisfaction in the matter of the sugar
tariff. -. ...
So far as our information goes at
present, indications point to a con-
siderable revision in the Underwood
bill before it passes congress. Mr..
Wilson feels committed to very sub
stantial reduction in the present tariff
and will no doubt make a strong fight
to have the tariff taken off or greatly
reduced, on all the necessities of life.
That this will not reduce the cost
Of living is my firm conviction. We
have had ample examples In the past
to substantiate the belief ! hold. For
example: The duty was taken off
leather some little time ago, and
leather has risen steadily In value
and is costing more today on the
open market than u did when the
market was protected by tariff.
Sugar is selling in department
stores in this vicinity for $40 per
hundred. This is the lowest rate that
] have known in many years. l
firmly believe that the rate on sugar,
after the beet industry is destroyed,
and with no protection, will be over
5 cents. In other words, the tariff
reduction will work to the advantage
of the sugar trust by destroying home
competition.
The same is true regarding great
many other items on the free list.
Bibles. for example, are placed On the
by the Bible houses that they pro-
pose, in the event of this bill going
through, to close their manufacturing
establishments, discharge their work
men. and manufacture their product
in Great Britain, and they will prac-
tically sell their goods at the same
price as they are selling them now,
pocketing the difference in price.
There is to be q reduction of 10
per cent in the book tariff according
to the Underwood bill. The difference
is so slight, when figured out on the
individual book, that it will not re-
duce the price to the wholesale or re-
tail consumer, as you can readily
understand
The indications are that a very
strong fight will be put up in. the SEN
ate over this bill. for in the minds
of many it will only work injury to a
great many industries in the country
and not reduce the cost of living, In
accordance with the theories of the
persons advocating the bill.
Very truly yours,
]. F. MASON

SAYS COMPANY
WOULD Use But
LITTLE WATER

In discussing the proposed Nuuanu
pipe line for the Hawaiian Electric
Company, Acting Superintendent of
Public Works A. C. Wheeler, in let.
ter to the Star-Bulletin this morning,
states that the company under the
contract would use at the most from
10, COO to $1,000 gallons of water daily.
Wheeler points out, on the other
hand, that the Electric Company has
offered to the city free of charge about
25,000,000 gallons. of water which is
flowing daily from its artesian wells.
The letter reads as follows:
Honolulu, April 81, 1913.
Gentlemen: Relative to the recent
discussion regarding the proposed
Nuuanu pipe line for the Hawaiian
Electric Company, / desire to submit
the following data:
It Is difficult to state the exact
amount of water that any power plant
will USE. The amount of water de-
ponds on the type of boiler, con-
densers and engines and the efficiency
Of the entire plant, including the
steam pipe. / understand that the
average horse power of the Hawaiian
Electric is 1000. Assuming this, be-
lieve that 10000 gallons per day would
be a safe estimate, considering the
present type and condition of the Ha-
waiian Electric power plant These
figures may go as high as $4,000, but
in all probability will be much lower
than 10000 and will certainly vary
directly with the amount of power
used and the manner in which the
plant is kept up. However, assume
for compartive purposes, that $4,000
gallons of water will be used per day
for steaming purposes. The Hawaii
an Electric has offered the use of the
artesian water they use for condens-
ing purposes and then waste out to
sea, which water can be pumped di-
1ectly into the mains of the city, from
the condensers, as is now done in all
territorial steam pumping plants. At
the present time, the Hawaiian Elec-
trio is drawing about 100000 gallons
from their wells.
Should pumps be attached to these
wells, the water supply of the city
could very probably be increased a
least up to 100000 gallons.
1t will be seen, therefore, that the
water supply of the city can be In
creased by 100000 gallons of arte-
sian water, whereas, the expenditure,
owing to the proposed four-inch pipe
line will not exceed $4,000 gallons for
which the city will be reimbursed at
the rate of 61s cents per 1000 gallons.
Very truly yours, HI. 49,.
A. c. WHEELER,
Asst. Supt. of Public Works.
