lwyers to Explain
Constitution to Voters
rom a s,ar CoTepondent Of TIE Tribune
oany, Sept. 12.-within a week

)any, sept. l2.-Wlthln week
Alphonso T. Clearwater, presi-
dent Of the State Bar Association, will
appoint a committee Of lawyers in each
of the sixty counties OF the state TO eX-
plain 10 the voters the excellent things
in the proposed constitution.
Judge Clearwater, who, as delegate at
large, took a prominent part in the
work Of the Constitutional Convention,
said tonight that the adoption Of the
proposed constitution would result In
large saving to the taxpayers of the
state
"The executive budget alone" said
Judge Clearwater. "will result in
economics of which the people have
but little conception. The short ballot
proposal, with its reorganization OF the
various state departments. will inaugu-
rate another long needed reform
The provision in the judiciary article
charging the Legislature to adopt
simple civil practice act, he added, was
one Of the most important reforms.
"Cf course continued Judge Clear
water. this provision will meet with
the opposition Of lawyers who are
welded 20 the old and involved prac-
tice. Lawyers of the first rank, how
ever. long have urged the adoption Of
such an act"
Regarding the short ballot proposal,
Judge Clearwater said II would end the
bureaucracy that now exists in this
state.
ION pay day" he said, albany
swarmed with men who rendered no
adequate service for the money they
drew from the State Treasury. The bu-
reaucrat, like the mite IN the cheese,
thinks the state is made for him"
Judge Clearwater heartily Endorsed
the home rule for cities proposal. He
said that, while he would have approved
a more liberal measure, he thought the
moderate one adopted was perhaps
wiser.
While. as was inevitable. there were
compromises, he said, the amendments
as a whole must commend themselves
Alto every broad minded, reflective citi-
zen as an advance upon the present or
ganic law.

SAYS HUNGARIAN IS
GUILTY OF BRIBERY
London Paper UncOvers Scandal
Involving Editor of News
paper Here.

London, Sept. 13.-"The Morning
Post" publishes the following from a
Hungarian correspondents;
1.-THE chief agents of Austro-German
intrigues in he United States are the
editors of Observation-Disclosures papers
and an Austro-Hungarian consul. One
editor, who now uses another name, is
one Martin Dienes, who figured in a
notorious political scandal in Hun
gary The scandal occurred some ten
years ago during the Premiership OF
Count Khuen Hedervary.
"Dienes was at the time editor of a
Budapest daily paper, an independent
organ, and he was approached by
Count Szapary, an intimate friend Of
the Premier, and was employed to bTlbe
independence party members of Parlla-
ment TO abstain from giving their vote
on a bill then before the House and
not TO deliver any speeches in the House
against the bill.
"The bill proposed, if | remember
rightly. to increase the standing army
by 100000 men. Dienes undertook the
mission and received money for brihes
but Zoltan Papp, the first man to whom
he gave f4OO, exhibited the money the
next morning in open sitting in Parlia-
ment, saying: i have been handed this
money as a bribe.
1.-The inquiry that ensued showed that
Dienes was TO have received 10 per cent
and above Of the money expended in
brides. The police issued a warrant
against him, but he escaped TO America.
Another agent is the publisher and
editor Of New York paper always in
the service of the Austrian government
for the purpose Of counteracting the in
dependence agitation among American
Hungarians.'

Cocoanut Oil Makes
a Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, the less soap you use
the better.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. just plain mulsified
eoeoanut oil (which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), is much better
than soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing, as this can't
possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abundance
of rich. creamy lather, and cleanses
the hair and scalp thoroughly. The
lather rinses out easily. and removes
every particle of dust. dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves it
fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
(it must be mulsifed) at most any
drug store. 1t is very cheap, and a
few ounces is enough to last every
one in the family for months.

Exposition committee arranges for
Sunday matinee races each Sunday

May, June, July, August and the
first three Sundays in September.
The exposition track where the
great events are to be held. is de-

records will he shattered is a fore

the exposition course is modern in
every respect and with the track

Dan Patch family and owned by Saw

Whiie the various sport events
Seld so far at the Pacific
International Exposition have made
the world sit up and take notice.
there is one part of the list to come
which is attracting the attention of
some OF the most prominent men in
the United States and abroad. This
Is the program of the harness races
to be held on the Exposition track in
June, October and November. In
arranging for these events the Off
Gals of the Panama Pacific lnterna-
uonai Exposition took a step that
had never been taken by past uni
versal fairs and the move was one
deserving great credit.
Two meetings are scheduled, a
summer and fall schedule having
been prepared. The first of these
begins on June and closes on June
10. The fall meeting opens on
October 80 and runs until November
- and the entry list to date shows
that some of the greatest horses and
drivers of the speedy sulky have
tossed their hats into the ring for
all these dates. Twenty-four days of
racing have been provided for by the
Exposition officials and considering
that such meetings would be worth
thousands of dollars to any Eastern
track, the foresight of those who ar
ranged the exposition schedule must
be appreciated.
The prizes hung up are sufficient
to attract the greatest drivers in the
world and have done so. For the
first meeting, which occupies eleven
days in June, there is approximately
$4,000 to be distributed among the
winners OF Tic thirty three events.
In only four of these have the en-

will take s12.00O of the big amount

The conditions drawn up for these
races are extremely liberal and

to do so with all possible haste.
There is one exception to this rule,

cause of their Importance, having
until June to be selected. Each Of
these events are worth $4,000.
The wonderful responses that
have come from the harness schedule
have set at rest all doubts as to it's
success. Despite the fact that the
big war in Europe will keep many
important trotters at home, the en-
try list will be one of the largest
ever known among American and
Canadian candidates. Famous East
ern drivers, such as Alonzo McDon-
aid and L. Shuler are already in
California, grooming their entries
for the big purses. Mcdonald is
located at Pleasanton, both busy
with active training, something they
could not accomplish in the East
with the cold weather prevailing
there.
The advisory board chosen by the
executive committee, which was It
self named by the exposition direct
ors. comprises some of the greatest
figures in American turfdom.
Among them are the presidents of
