Reservoir Site
To Be Visited

There was quite discussion on
the subject of reservoirs at the
meeting of the Maui Chamber of
Commerce, last Thursday. A letter
from DR.. j. II. Raymond started
the ball rolling, and there was much
light thrown upon the subject in
general by the various speakers.
DR.. Raymond asked, in his letter,
that the chan Der endorse the pro-
position of building 100000
gallon reservoir just outside of
Olinda. The doctor told of the
scarcity of water, and stated that
he had had spells Of a week at
time when there was no water CON-
ing to him from the pipeline. He
declared that the reservoir would
cost $50, 900, and that it should he
constructed. The pipe line had
saved cattle to the value of $50, 900,
and the doctor said that on his
ranch he would have lost at least
$4,000 worth, only for the water
that comes through the Kula pipe
line.
L. Won Tempsky stated that the
site for the reservoir has already
been surveyed. He added that the
site is the only logical one for such
purpose.
w. F. Pogue said it would he
better to increase the capacity of
the Waikamoi reservoir. That re-
servoir could be made to carry
100000 gallons of good, pure,
sweet clean water. He declared
that the Kula pipe line was never
intended to supply water for 365
days in the year. 1t would take
S750,0C0 to do SO. Plenty of re-
servoirs should be filled, and then
one or two weeks shortage of pipe
line water would do no damage
Pogue said he was against the
Olinda site for a reservoir and de-
clared that the Waikamoi site was
the proper place. Pure, clear water,

purposes and while a muddy reser-
voir is alright for irrigation pur-
poses. Pogue said that pune water
would not he obtainable at the
Olinda reservoir-if built.
w. O. Aiken moved that a COM
mittee of five-to include two engi-
neers-be appointed to look into
the matter of the reservoir sites,
and to report to the legislative COM
mittee of the chamber in order that
that committee can advise the legis-
lators of Maui as to what to work
for in the legislature.
This motion was carried, and the
chair appointed Messrs. Won Temp
sky, Pogue, Aiken, Howell ana
Bruno, to take the matter up.
This committee met at six O'Clock
yesterday morning, and decided
that there is leak somewhere along
the water line The matter will be
investigated and the proposed sites
for the reservoirs will also be in
spccted during next week

FOR PRESENT RATE.
Topeka Gas Company Makes Fight
Before Utilities Board.

The Consumers Light, Heat ana
Power company, is fighting for the
maintenance of the present gas rates
in Topeka This fact was brought out
in the hearing before the public utlll-
ties commission.
]. S. Dean, and J. ]. Kicks OF
Chicago appeared before the commits
sion as counsel for the local concern
which supplies Topeka and Oakland
with gas.
Mr.. Kicks defended the attitude OF
the local company in the question OF
an increase in rates. His statement
was largely in the nature of protest.
He contended that the local d1str1put-
ing company has a valid and binding
contract with the Kansas Natural Gas
company and that nothing has happend
to justify any violation OF the terms OIL
that contract.
Two other distributing companies APP
peared before the commission. w. +.
Waggener appeared for the Atchison
Railway, Light and Power company.
He took the same stand as did the
representatives of the local concern.
FIody E. Harper, representing the
Leavenworth Light, Heat and Power
company intimated that his company
would be willing to increase the price
to it's consumers.
The Kansas Natural Gas company
has a claim against the local distri-
buting company for thousands of dol
lars, the difference between the rate
charged by the local concern for gas
and the amount that the larger COM
pany told them to charge.

SAVES ELDERLY PEOPLE FROM
KIDNEY AND BLADDER MISERIES
Sleep Disturbing Bladder Weaknesses Backache Stiff Joints
Rheumatic Pains Disappear After Few Doses Taken.
Fifth Floor.

While people along in years are
naturally more subject to weak kid
neys, they can avoid the tortures of
backache, and rheumatism, and be
saved the annoyance of getting up at
night with disagreeable bladder dis
orders, for the new discovery, Crox-
one, quickly relieves the most severe
and obstinate cases.
CroXone cures these conditions be-
cause it removes the cause. 1t is the
most wonderful remedy ever devised
for Kidding the system of uric acid.
1t is entirely different from all other
remedies. 1t is not like anything else
ever used for the purpose. Croxone
makes the kidneys filter the blood and
waste matter that cause these trou-
bleS.
1t soaks right in and cleans out the
stopped up, inactive kidneys like wa
ter does a sponge, dissolves, and
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1913-03-12

drives out every particle of uric acid
and other poisonous impurities that
lodge in the joints and muscles and
cause rheumatism. 1t neutralizes the
urine so that it no longer irritates the
bladder, overcomes unnecessary
breaking of sleep and restores the
kidneys and bladder to health and
strength.
1t matters not how long you have
suffered, how old you are, or what
else you have used. The very prin-
cip1e of Croxone is such that II is
practically impossible to take it into
the human system without results.
There is nothing else on earth like
it. 1t starts to work the minute you
take it and relieves you the first time
you use it, and all your misery and
suffering soon disappear. You can
secure an original package of Croxone
al trifling cost from any first-clasS
druggist. All druggists are authorized
to personally return the purchase
price if it fails in single case.-AdV.

NORTH SIDE news
Union Pacific Park Favored
for POstOffice Location.
Seems Most Available, So Far
as Price Is Concerned.

A majority of the people of North
Topeka favor the Union Pacific park as
a location for the new poStoffice build
ing. A number of other locations
have been mentioned which would be
suitable but cannot be considered for
the reason that the sale price is too
great. The sum of 81 600 of the total
appropriation has been allowed for the
purchase of location, and the other
Ioca lions could not be bought for that
amount. 1t is acknowledged that the
most suita Bile location is at Kansas
avenue and Laurent street. Any of
the four corners of this intersection
would be suitable and highly satisfac-
tory. but owing to the Importance of
the location and the buildings on them,
it is impossible to consider any of
them. Other locations could be selected,
but an effort is being made TO secure
a location within the free delivery
limits which has been esta blished by
the government for the railroad COM
panies. This is eighty rods. All other
locations appear to be receiving but lit
tie support The location of the old
Quincy school would come within the
eighty-rod limit, but the people of
North Topeka prefer to have the new
building located in tho business district
and in a place where everybody would
see it. A E. Robinson, clerk in charge
of the North Topeka station, has re-
ceiVed WORD from the postmaster gem
eral which informs him that man will
come here in the near future to look
over the proposed locations. This let
ter also gives the requirements which
are necessary in offering locations
which must be forwarded to the post
master general. Persons who desire
this information can secure it by call
ing on Mr.. Robinson at the present 10
cation.
Foreign Money Orders.
More than 200 foreign money orders
have been sold at the postoffice in
North Topeka during the last year.
These money orders usually are sold to
Russians who wish to send money to
relatives or friends who live in the
vicinity of Saratow, Russia. Some of
the money has been sent to pay travel
ing expenses to North Topeka. Money
orders to foreign points could not be
bought at the North Topeka station
until about a year ago. This courtesy
was extended to the people of that part
of the city by Postmaster A. K. Rod

ARMY OF OFFICERS
Many Witnesses in Suffrage
Parade Investigation.
Insults and Brutal Conduct of
Crowd Revealed.

Washington, March 12.-When the
senate committee inquiring into the
failure of the police to afford proper
protection to the suffragist parade
March 3, prepared to resume hearing
today, it had before it small army of
police officers and patrolmen.
Major Sylvester has defended his
preparations for protecting the women

the shoulders of his subordinates.
Further details of the difficulties
experienced by the marchers in the
parade were told today by women ana
men. Mrs. Elizabeth A. Ballock at
tacks the conduct of the special po-
licemen. She described them as
trough, coarse men, whose attitude
was facetious and who made f11ppant,
silly remarks
Mrs. Olive H. Hasbrouck and Ran
dolph Forrest told of policing por-
line of march themselves after vain
appeals to policemen.
1--WE had no difficulty then" said
Mrs. Hasbrouck. 1.-THE police were
willing to do what we asked
Mr.. Forrest told of an attack by
three national guardsmen upon float:
He said they jumped on the float and
tore some of the decorations Inc
women were badly frightened.
Dion Miller, a Washington lawyer
testified that of $50 policemen he saw
along the line of march only two or
three were taking active steps to keep
the crowd back. He appealed to sew
eral without result He declared the
crowd would have obeyed any con-
certed action by the police.
Miss Ella Wambaugh of Cambridge,
Miss, said the policemen that she saw
were doing nothing to keep BACK tne
crowd and seemed interested in the
parade.
"A drunken man fell into our rank
just behind me- she said. Il don't
know what happened to him; 1t was
all a nightmare"

May Call Morgan.

Chicago, March 12.-It is possible
that ]. Pierpont Morgan may be
called as a witness in the Alaska coal
land fraud cases, which are on trial
here before Judge Lands in the
United States district court. John E.
Ballaine, former president of the Alas
ka-Central railway, today was ques-
toned by Attorney Albert Fink of

From The Times Readers
Baying at the Moon.

To the Editor of THE TIMES:
The criticisms aimed at william Jen-
nings Bryan in connection with his
standards Of living. lecture tours, and
SO on, are sordid and shabby. OF
course, great men have always been
parked at more or less, but these days
there Is a continual chorus of yelps at
the distinguished. And II Is going be-
yond the limit when questions are
raised whether Mr. Bryan as Secretary
Is earning his salary. A man of his
CALDER and personality Is earning more
than the Government will ever pay rim
by MERELY LIVING. Such men are
OF a value impossible to measure by
commercial standards; 1t should be con-
sidered that the world needs something
besides-pork packing, for instance, or
typewr!ting. 1t is the few msn of
Bryan's size and fashion who uphold
society, and II those few were to perish
OF the face of the earth today, the
human race would disintegrate for lack
of spiritual force to hold II together.
Yet, people arise with itemIzed accounts
and try to figure the worth of such
man in dollars and cents. European
governments are criticised for their
doctrine of "lese majes;e," but !, ap-
pears that we need little OF such re-
striction in this country, where nothing
is held sacred. Perhaps, being new
country, We are not so far removed
from the primeval as the older nations,
and the instinct of the chase still sur
wives. But, IL we must hunt something,
lot lis use our ammunition on coyotes
and skunks and not on the kings OF the

TARIFF-MAKING DISPATCH.

For the way he continues to urge members of the
Senate and of the House 10 drive through with the
tariff work, President Wilson is sure of hearty
public approval. In that purpose he has the back
ing of voters not only in his party but in other
parties. Even those who don't want and don't believe
in the sort of tariff Congress is giving the country
wish it to 60 into operation just quickly it
While the tariff measure has been going through
Congress industry and business have managed to
make out fairly well under the circumstances. But
as the weeks have gone on it has become more diff
6cult for mills and factories to write business and
merchants have been more and more embarrassed
to know just how much-or rather how little-to add
to their stocks for "hand-to-mouth" trade.
As soon as~it became fcregone conclusion that
there was to be new tariff every business man
wished to have the uncertainty over as soon as pos
sible, and, whatever anybody may think of the pro-
visions of the measure as principles, is bound
to state that both the House and Senate have done
very creditable work in trying to get to the end of
their schedule-making with dispatch.

HUERTA'S FALL NEAR?

There is every indication that the Huerta govern
ment in Mexico will soon fall. The unofficial news
is that President Wilson has very good information
to this effect and that il will not be easy for the
American ambassador to Mexico, when he arrives,
convince the President to the contrary, however
strong the ambassadors sympathies with Euerta-
and apparently they are exceedingly strong.
President Wilson, then, has been entirely right in
his Mexican policy since the day he took office There
is no telling how much truth and how much non-
there may have been in the reports of Euro
pean official influences that tried to move the Pres-
dent to give his support Huerta. But there is no
doubt that very powerful private interests of many
countries, including our own, have tried in every
possible way to gain Mr.. Wilson over to the cause
of Huerta.
1t is greatly to the credit of the President that
he did not permit himself be moved in one direc-
tion or the other until he sure that his final
course was right
