way TO
END RKEUM ATlSM
Ease Stiff, Sore Joints and Muscles.
Makes Pains and Backache
Promptly Vanish.

Most all rheumatism is due to one
cause weak kidneys says a noted
authority The kidneys become clog
ged up, get sluggish and filter or
strain out only part of the poison
Gus waste matter and uric acid, all
the rest remains in the blood and cir
culates through the system, where it
lodges in the joints and muscles, and
causes all the trouble.
The only way to overcome this, is
to make your kidneys work properly.
You can easily and surely do this by
taking a little Croxone, which never
fails to act promptly.
Croxone not only cleans out the
clogged up kidneys, strengthens them
and makes them active, but 1t neutral
ICES and dissolves the poisonous waste
substances, and uric acid, that scratch
and irritate and cause rheumatism.
SO the kidneys can filter it from the
blood and drive it out of the system.
CroXone is believed to be the most
remarkable preparation ever known
for the prompt relief and cure of
kidney troubles, and blad.
der disorders. 1t is entirely differ
ent from other remedies. 1t is so pre-
pared that it is practically impossible
to take it without results. Relief fol-
lows the first few doses, and you will
be surprised how quickly stiff, sore,
swollen joints, and muscles, rheuma-
tic pains, and all such misery ends.
An original package of Croxone
costs but trifie, and every druggist
recommends and sells it on pos
tive moneyback guarantee. Three
doses a day, for a few days, is often
all that is ever needed to overcome
the worst backache or most annoying
urinary disorders. Advertisement

NEED CURFEW LAW
AND M||lA| ||.T' HERE
Club Women and soclarworkers Of
keokuk Believe These
Would be Of
Benefit.
NO ACTION IS TAKEN
City Commissioners Did Not Take up
the sussestlon-Police
Matron May be
Secured.

| A campaign for curfew law in the
city Of Keokuk may be started in the
near future. The matter was taken
up with the city commissioners a
short time ago by committee of club
women. The commissioners did not
seem inclined to consider the matter,
however.
A police matron is another need for
the city, according to some of the
prominent social workers Of Keokuk,
and request will be made shortly for
the establishment of matron's office
in connection with the police depart
ment Of the CITY, it is understood.
| The agitation for both the curfew
law and the creation Of the Office of
police matron grew out Of the inves-
LEGATIONS being made by some of the
club women Of Keokuk. The girl prob
lem was one OF the largest they found
confronting them. What to do with
the fourteen to sixteen year old girl
who spends her time on the streets
and In cheap theatres was what
prompted thesidea Of a curfew law.
Need curfew Law.
Judge Henry Bank OF the Juvenile
court was appealed to by the women
to offer some suggestion by which
these young girls could be kept OF
the streets and out of certain tempta-
tions. The judge declared he was
powerless to act unless there was a
curfew law In Keokuk. The only 9th.
| er means would be that of filing dis
orderly conduct charges which would
be worse than no action.
It was decided then, by the women
who are Interested that they would
appeal to the commissioners. The
council, however, did not see fit to
take up the sugg estion.
1t is believed that a police matron
may be secured under the organize
ton Of the police department laws.
How It Acts -,
The curfew law as many OF the
cities use 1t, orders young girls and
boys off the streets after 900
o'clock, and makes their parents re-
sponsible for the obeying Of this law.
1t is believed by the women who have
this project at heart that much good
would be accomplished by such a
law, and they do not intend to let the
matter drop, entirely @ III,
The need for a police matron is be-
lieved to be almost as great. as that
for 800 o'clock law. Whenever a
girl or woman is accosted on the
street by police officer that person
is branded to a certain extent. A
police matron on the other hand
could speak to the girl and help her
in many cases without the usual side
walk loungers becoming aware that
anything out of the ordinary was 60
ing on. ~S

.CUMM|NS ON
REORGANIZATION
Senior Iowa Senator Discusses the
Republican Party In a Recent Ia
sue Of the Saturday
Evening POST.
REAL MOVEMENT ON FOOT
Senator Says Those Who Voted for
Roosevelt In 1912 Had no In
tentlon Of Permanently
Leaving Party.

Senator Albert B. Cummin has the
leading article in the Saturday Even
ing Post last week. The subject is
The Reorganization Of the Republic
can Party" The senator says that
newspapers and magazines have had
many nonsensical articles on the sub
ject, largely due to the froth Of ignor-
ance or misrepresentation of malice.
The senator says there is a real
movement on for the reorganization
of the party and he is glad to have
part In 1t. He says the movement Is
on a sure foundation and that it will
succeed. Senator Cummins points out
the differences at the last national
convention of the party and freely ad-
mits that he felt 1t his duty to disre-
gard the actions of the majority in
that convention. He says the Chicago
convention was not representative OF
the millions in the party In any
sense. He discusses at length the
southern representation taking up
much the same line of argument as
he gave in his address some months
ago before the Grant club in Des
Moines.
He discusses the national commit.
tee chosen four years in advance Of
convention and calls the old plan
indefensible. He says tina. the 4,OO0,-
600 republicans who left the party
and voted for Colonel Roosevelt last
fall had no intention Of remaining
permanently away from the party.
They felt the convention which nom
mated Taft had not been representa-
tive and wanted to give old methods
Knockout blow.
They discovered. according to the
senator, of the misrepresentation of
certain states and the authority as
stunned by the national committee to-
decide who should sit in the conven-
ton.
To bring about needed changes In
rules SO that the voters of the party
will have confidence in the republican
national convention Of 1916, Senator
Cummins suggests special meeting
Or convention. He says the national
committee has no authority to bring
about the needed changes but that
they must be made through the or
ganized convention Of the party. SEN
ator Cummins says Iowans are inter-
ested In the proposed reorganization
and that while some republicans ara
still making light of it, the rank and
file are demanding the reorganization.
He calls attention to the victory in
favor of reorganization in New York
where he says the issue was directly
joined.

The bill which would transfer the
water and sewer systems on Honolulu
from the territory to the city and
county was called for third reading
this morning by the senate with a IA

Chief IS
HERE To LOOK
At DRYDOCk

Engineering experts of the navy are
now in consultation here over the
problem of the Pearl Harbor dryd6ck,
and the result of their deliberations
will practically determine the meth
DDS to be followed in order to anchor
the huge basin to the treacherous bot.
tom of the harbor Rear Admiral Ho.
mer Stanford, chief of the bureau of
yards and docks, has himself come to
Hawaii to go thoroughly into local
conditions, sarriving yesterday morn
ing on the transport Logan. With him
is Civil Engineer F. r. Harris, public
works officer at the New York navy
yard, and considered a drydock ex-
pert. President S. G.. Hindes, of the
San Francisco Bridge Co., contractors
for the Pearl Harbor dock, arrived
here on the Sierra this morning, and
this trio, with Civil Engineer E. r.
Gayler, public works officer at Pearl
Harbor, and "Drydock Smith, local
superintendent and engineer of the
contractors, forms combination of
engineering brain that should be able
10 successfully cope with any prob.
lem which might come up.
After the drydock "blew up," Civil
Engineer Gayler evolved an ingenious
scheme for holding down the bot
tom, by constructing the basin OF
huge concrete blocks, cast on land,
and liften into place by the new float
ing crane, underwater concrete to be
poured between the blocks by the
tremies, to make a solid whole. This
plan was forwarded to Washington,
and later was peronally explained to
the bureau chief by Mr.. Hindes, who
came here after the accident to con-
suit with Civil Engineer Gayler, and
then made a flying visit to Washing
ton. 1t was given out at that time
that the GayIer plan has been accept
ed. The Pearl Harbor drydock prob
lem, however, is Of such vital i'm
pOrtance to the navy department that
the bureau chief himself decided TO
have consultation on the spot.
Today ali the interested parties are
on the ground. Mr.. Hindes55Went di-
rectly from the steamer to the harbor,
and there met Admiral stanford and
the civil engineers. 1t was a busy

site, and probably the first of num-
Der of such consultations.
Admiral Stanford did not care to
give cut any statement until he had
had a look at the actual conditions,
and talked over the situation with the
local naval engineers. The chief of
bureau was here for several weeks
last summer, and is thoroughly ia
miliar with Pearl Harbor and it's prob

but short time to take. up the

very short time with Admiral
Moore. He received the salute of

WASHINGTON, ID. c., April 3d.
President Wilson would like such dis
cretion as would permit the appoint
ment OF a governor for Hawaii from
ganic law, making a selection of thai
character legal and possible, would
meet the hearty approval OF the chiel
executive.
Up to this time the president has
not announced an intention of seek
ing remedial legislation during the
extraordinary session of congress
now in progress. II is known that he
does not like restrictions and limita
uons. He may find il desirable tc
urge q change in the organic act un
der which he could select a governor
from the states and send him TO Ha
wall This would not become neces.
sary If the Democrats can reach some
agreement under which is good man
is tremendously recommended for the
govern0rship,
President Wilson is a strong advo.
cate OF employing experts in all lines
OF activity He wosllds like 60 send a
man TO Hawaii who IS fully equippe
in all matters pertaining to the land
laws, irrigation and immigration. and
ether features of local interest. In his
opinion such governor would be en-
tirely free from personal bias and in
a p6ition TO impartially administer
all branches of the territorial govern.

ing Hawaii are precisely the same as
those relating to the district of Co.
lumbia The law requires that com
missioners must be citizens and resi-.
dents of the district. After carefully
inspecting the field of applicants Mr..
Wilson made it known that he sought
experts and none of those seeking the
places came under that classification.
He said ii would be preferable TO re.
peal the law and give him authority
to make selections from outside the
city of Washington. But he will make
a determined effort to find suitable
men here before he will ask Congress
10 amend the statute The same will
be trpe of Hawaii.
Beyond the desire of the president
to have greater latitude in choosing a
governor of Hawaii there has been nno
material change in the sitHation 1t
is figured that within brief period
now the president will take up ap-
pointments in Hawaii and clean the
slate so far as he is concerned.

conferences with President Wilson.
He advanced additional reasons why

FRANCHISE BILL
PASSES SENATE

Agreeing on one physiological
amendment suggested by Senator
Metzger, the senate this morning
passed the bill for the extension of
the Rapid Transit and Land Com
pany's franchise, only two dissenting
votes being cast, by Senators Brown
and Coke &..
The battle of the senate over, the
measure will now go to the house,
where, it was reported this morning,
it will meet with little opposition.
When the reading of the bill was
over, Senator Brown rose, moved that
it pass final reading, then withdrew
the motion, stating that he wished a
section stricken out. But before he
named the section, he withdrew his
second motion, which permitted Sena-
tor Metzger to get the floor.
The motion the latter made changes
the phrase, which makes the franchise
subject to any provision in the organic
act, broadening it so as to include
laws of the United States or terri
tory. Senator Judd at first objected
to the amendment, saying that the bill
had been drafted after great amount
Of thought, and that he would prefer
TO have it remain unchanged. l..
Senators Coke and Brown, who
voted against the bill, signed partial
concurrence to the report Of the Oahu
committee, in which they stated that
they concurred only SO far as recon-
mending that the measure be placed
