Public Drinking Trough. oanserou.

The public watering trough is a
nuisance that should be abolished. It
is easy to comprehend the necessity
which compels the doing away with
the public roller-towel. the bar OF soap
and public drinking cup and the same
arguments for abolishing the public
watering trough are applicable, save
that they apply to horse and not man.
II is common knowledge that some
of the worst diseases OF horses, such
as CHAMBERS and strangles are trans
mitted in this way. Some of the
transportation companies place no.
tees in their establishments to the
effect that transfers are not to water
at public watering troughs, under pen
atty OF dismissal. II is quite certain
that this is the most common means
OF spreading strangles (distemper)
among horses and the public watering
trough should be legally abolished

THE ARMY BILL

The passage of the military bill BY
the House of Representatives by the
practically unanimous vote of 402 to
2, is an encouraging indication of a
sincere desire on the part of our law
makers to settle that end of the pre-
paredness problem as speedily as it
may be done. To reorganize the mill
tary establishment of a great country
is no small undertaking, even though
that establishment be a small affair
compared with the armies of European
powers. There is an infinite amount
of necessary detail to be worked out,
and a great variance of opinion as to
each and every point, but the Military
Affairs committees of both branches
of Congress have considered the sub
spirit of patriotism, and the bills
which represent the results of their
investigations and conclusions are at
the least an honest effort to provide
for the country's military needs. The
Hay bill in the House was reported
unanimously by the committee. Re-
publican as well as Democratic mem
bers favoring its adoption, and there
has been an equal absence of par
tisanship in the discussion of, and
action by. the whole House The vote
itself shows that politics have not
entered into the matter
AS to the merits of the House bill
as passed, it may be said that it does
not please the extremists on either
side. 1t goes too far for the pacifists
and does not begin to go far enough
for those whose fears of an immediate
invasion inflict them with insomnia
The strongest objection will be raised
TO the increase provided for the regu-
lar army. The prestnt maximum
is 100000 men. The House bill raises
this to 10000. There is feeling
throughout the country that this is
not sufficient The Senate bill pro
vides for 10000 men. and the vote
in the House on the Kahn smend-
ment placing the limit at 22O.0 ia
reach the point of harmonizing their
differences for the final enactment
the Senate figure is likely to be the
one established. The reliance placed
by both bodies on the ''federalized
national guard" idea is severely crit
icised by military experts, but there
is hardly any doubt that that feature
will stand. The amendment to the
House bill providing for conditional
discharges of regular army men into
the reserve after a period OF one year
should make the service more at
tractive and help enlistments. There
are in both bills quite a number of
features Of merit. and the final result.
while it will not wholly satisfy the
country. promises to be long step
forward in military readiness.-Globe-

PUBLIC UTILITY
BILLNOW HOLDS
CONTRADICTIONS
House Passes ~. R. SIS" With
Complications That Need
Strengthening

III. r. Co" is going merrily through
Congress with some C0nuadlCt"ry
features which have just come 10 the
attention OF corporation lawyers IN
Hawaii.
II. r. 65" is the congressional bill
designed to place public service cor
pOrations in Hawan under the super
vision and partial contrCt Of the terri
tOrial public utilities corporation. The
bill was originally passed by the ter
ritOrial legislature Uack IN 1913, went
to Washington for the necessary ratiti-
cation by Congress, meandered its
leisurely way there, often sidetraCked
by matters whicH more nearly in
volved the fate of the nation, and now
is up again for attention by the states
men.
Superintendent Forbes put in some
hard ticks for 1t while he was in
WASHINGTON. Until this bill is passed.
the public utilities commission is mi
nus some Of its most formidable
claws"
In the form of the bill as it passed
the house, several changes nave been
made in the measure as it passed the
territorial legislature. These changes
are what furnish the complaining ele-
ments. For instance, the fUuowing Is
added to the list OF pubnc service
corporations affected: anu all fran
chises heretofore granted to any other
public utility or public-utlnty COM
pany, and all public utilities and pub
lie utilities companies organized or
operating within the territory OF Ha-
wall TsYt
The effect of this is TO- pat the In
ter-Island Steam Navigation company
and the Oahu Railway & Land Com
pany under the public utlu,les COM
mission of Hawaii, and Yet the bill
specifically provides that nOuuIng shall
be done therein to limit the Inter
state Commerce Commission in Ha-
wall, so that apparently Inese two
common carriers will be under both
the territorial and, the national com
missions. ~
The bill in it's present form also
omits at one point the worus or the
courts" The effect OF this apparently
is to take away from the courts pow
ers given in previous FRANCHISE grants
relating to supervision IN certain de-
tails of public service corporation OPP
Grafton.
This affects the gas and electric
company franchises, since features Of
their service are subject 10 court re
view, yet in the franchises Q, tnes.
companies themselves the night 70 ap-
peal to the courts is Still maintained.
Further still, there Is auueu at the
very end of the bill a PROVISION de-
claring that all acts OF Tie uuIrty com
mission shall be subject to review by
the courts of the territory.
These complications will probably be
drawn to the attention OF Congress.
which has plainly rushed the bill
along without scanning its details
carefully. Even now, With these
changes, the house passed the bill
carrying the original approval of Gov
ernor Frear, which should nave been
dropped in the new copy. as the bill
is considerably modified since he ap-
proved it in the territorial legislature.
The senate may pass the bill with
proper amendment, after which the
house can concur.

THREE SEPARATE
COMP ANIES FOR
0. c. PREP. BOYS

So keen has become the interest in
the recently inaugurated military drill
system at PunahOu that the older bOy3
in the academy have petitiOned for
extra drill and large number OF boys
in the fourth grade have applied for
permission to be included in the train
ing.
In view of the application Of the
fourth graders, the school officials
have decided, on the request Of par
ents, that they be allowed to take the
drill. This, says President A. F. Gift
fiths, has paved the way for the for
nation Of three complete companies
in the preparatory school, in which the
boys will be arranged according to
size. The original plan was that the
drill extend only to the boys in the
academy and to those in the fifth,
sixth, seventh and eighth grades of
the preparatory.
The contract for making the drill
uniforms, which consist of white shirt,
duck trousers and white hat, has been
awarded the Kealoha Manufacturing
Company, the order calling for about
20 dozen separate uniforms. Although
the school failed in its attempt to OBJ
tain from the government enough
Krag-Jorgensen rifles, of the type now
used by the Kamehameha cadets, TO
supply the boys, it has petitioned for
a quantity of cavalry carbines.
Nearly all of the academy boys,
President Griffiths says, have obtained
permission to take up target practise.
and this work is to begin within q
short time The range at Fort Shafter
probably will be used and the boys
will be instructed by noncommmissi0n-
ed officers Of the army.

IDAHO SOUTHERN
DEAL IS CLOSED
Oregon Short Line Acquires Terminal
of Idaho Southern at Jerome and
VIII Build Spur.

For some time negotiations have
been pending between ID. G. MacWat-
ters, receiver of the Idaho Southern
railroad, and the officers of the Ore
gon Short Line railroad, whereby the
latter road would take over the ter
minal of the Idaho Southern at
Jerome, thereby giving it uptown
yardage and trackage for the handling
of both outgoing and incoming
freight, says the Jerome North Side
News. Much has depended on the con-
summation of this arrangement, one of
the important matters being the build
ing of a grain elevator and the in
creasing of the plant of the Jerome
Milling and Elevator company whose
property is adjacent to the terminal of
the Idaho Southern railroad.
Mr.. MacWatters has been in confer
ence with the Oregon Short Line Of
ficials since last week, and on last
Friday negotiations were so far closed
that he notified the milling and eleva-
tor company that nothing remained
except the adjustment of some of the
details and technicalities and on this

RAFT RIVER ROAD WORK
IS PROGRESSING RAPIDLY
Seven Miles Regarded to Date and 115
Miles of Track Is Ordered for This
Work.

Seven miles of regarding beyond
Narshfield on the Burley-Salt Lake
line through the Raft river country,
has been accomplished to date and
the work continuing rapidly, says the
Burley Southern Idaho Advocate. One
hundred cars of ties are enroute or on
the ground and lis miles of track is
ordered for this work 1t is known
that the extension will be built as far
as Idahome, and strong indications
point to its going farther.
Monday J. E. Schilling, engineer for
the O. S. L., with headquarters at
Pocatello, and A. F. Hemming of the
construction department, were in Bur
ley on official business connected with
the new road.
Short Line officials are strangely
silent regarding the amount to build
ing on this branch to be done this
summer and fall. They will neither
deny nor affirm an intention of pro-
ceeding farther than IdahOme. Some
of the local people who are particular
ly interested in seeing the line ex-
tended are inclined to take this at.
tititude as favorable The great
amount of material ordered and being
shipped would indicate that provi-
sion is being made for more track
building than was first intended. De.
