Due to the prolonged drought the
water supply is rapidly diminishing.
This morning there was only IL feet
. in reservoir No /, some 6 IL feet in
reservoir No. 2. only feet in the
third tank and IS IA feet In basin No.
4. Fred G. Kirchhoff, superintendent
OF waterworks, said yesterday that
IL the condition continued the depart
ment would have TO open up No. tank

in the hill districts which would mean
that the city light plant would be en-.
tirely without water for power making

S. c. Subbard, acting superintend-
ent OF the city light department, de-
clared yesterday that il this was
done he would have no other recourse
but to buy Juice" from the Hawaiian
Electric company for the city street
lights.
1T looks to me ike We would have
to buy juice before the end of the
week." said Mr.. Stibbard this morning,
because the moon, which has been
giving light at night is, due to set
about that time"
The waterworKs department sent
out another notice today to citizens
asking them to refrain from wasting
water. Those who have been delin-
quent in paying their water taxes felt
the brunt of the recent order this
morning; total of twenty taps being
shut off by the department. AS
charge Of $3.50 is made on every citi'
zen who comes in to pay his taxes af-
ter the water has once been shut off.
there was some moaning and groaninG
but the staff of the department polite
" informed all the angry ones that
sufficient warning had already been
given through the newspapers and
otherwise. -.--@.-6

clared Harry E. Murray, who until
last Sunday was superintendent of the
city and county waterworks but who
was ousted by the board to make way
for Fred Kirchhoff
supervisor Petrie told the board
Tuesday night that the water he was
getting at his home from the
Nuuanu valley was dirty and there is
no one to blame but the Democratic
party which opposed the bond issue
for a municipal filtration plant on two
occasions during the life of the last
board" continued the former water
works superintendent.
THE first bond issue was brought
up last October for a filtration plant
and parks but the Democrats beat it
down and when the second bond issue,
think II was for $4S0,000, came up
in February they gave It the axe again
Now they have only themselves to
blame for the impure and dangerous
water that is being supplied the citi-
zens in the higher districts which the
pumps cannot reach" declared Mr..
Murray. .-*

THE BLUE SKY LAW
AND OTHER MATTERS
(Ry Justice J.. z. Robinson.)

Do you know that God made the
heavens and the earth and rested only
when his work was done: and that the
time for man to rest is when he has
done his work, or when he is tired?
Do you know there is a class Of men
who never earn their bread by the
sweat of their brow; who never do an
honest days work, and who live on
the labor of others; and for that reaA
son they grow narrow minded and IL
liberal?
Do you know that under the consti-
tuition of the state every man has a
right to live and prosper and to pur-
sue and obtain safety and happiness:
and is 1t not the duty Of the clergy to
know and to teach the people how to
obtain prosperity and happiness in this
world as we'll as in the next. and is
not that duty sadly neglected? -.
Do you know that the Sabbath was
made for man, and not man for the
Sabbath, and that it is lawful to do
good and to pull an OK or an ass out
of ditch and to pass the contribution
box even on the Sabbath day? -.
Do you know that the intolerance
and standpatism of those who live on
the labor of others has been the great
curse of humanity. that it has made
countless thousands mourn; and that
it is all contrary to the humane teach
ings of the One who is Lord even OF
the 'SODA'A JAMES AN E. ROBINSON.

How the Farmers May Take
Advantage of the Farm Loan Act
Frank Wilson, Federal Farm Loan Washington
81 Artie Two.

Only farmers or prospective farm
ers who wish to borrow money may
join the national farm loan associa-
tons provided under the Federal
Farm Loan Act. 1t takes ten or more
to make UP one OF these associations.
IL farmer wishes to borrow he
should find out IL such an association
has been formed in his community. IL
1t has, he should make application to
the secreary-treasurer for member
ship. II no association has been
formed, he should attempt to get ten
or more farmers who wish to borrow,
to meet for the purpose Of organizing
The process Of organization is very
simple. One OF the members should
write. to the Federal Farm Loan
Board. Washington, d. C., for blank
have been received a meeting of the
prospective borrowers should be
called and these articles Of association
should be adopted, signed, and ack-
by each member. Each
member will indicate the amount he
wishes to borrow. and the value and
description OF the land he wishes to
use as security.
This association elects five or more
elect a president, a vice. president,
secretary treasurer. and a loan COM
mittee Of three members.
This is as gar as the association
can go until after the Federal land
bank of that district is established.
Then, upon application, the Federal
land bank will furnish the local asso-
citation with a blank application for
charter, which should be filed out and
filed with the Federal land bank,
along with the articles Of association.
These documents. should be accom-
panied by a written. unanimous report
Of the loan committee placing val
uation on the lands OF each Of the
members.
Then the appraiser of the Federal
land bank will come to inspect the
lands Of the members and o. K. or
reject the valuation prepared by the
loan committee. rs
No one farmer may borrow more
than $4,000 nor less than 800. No
farm loan association may
start with less than $4,000 of loans.
Each member joining the local as

amount he borrows. II he borrows
$1,000 he will get $3.50 in cash and a
certificate OF stock for $50. Or he may
make his loan $1,000 and thus have
net loan OF $1,000, taking long time
to repay the $50 invested in stock
as on the thousand borrowed. This
investment is for the purpose of pro-
Yidng the increasing capital of the
Federal land bank, and the local as
ISOLATION invests 1t in the land bank
stock. The borrower will get his
money back when he pays off his
mortgage, and will get what divi-
dends 1t earns while 1t is invested.
Now, what is the object OF requir-
ing the borrowers to thus group
themselves into loan associations?
Primarily that the loan associations

Rev. William Gaines,
Jamestown, n. D.
Dear Sir: 1 have yours concerning
the Sunday Blue Sky law, which l
hold to be no law at all, it is clearly
contrary to the constitution and the
first principles of natural right and
justice. 1t is a remnant of religious
or clerical bigotry and intolerance,
for which the clergy and the lawyers
are in a way responsible.
According to the pretended law it is
a sin and a crime for a person on the
first day Of the week to buy or sell
fruit. candy, cigars, newspapers or
magazines; to play billiards or to go
to places of innocent amusement. On
one side of the meridian line the doing
of q thing Is sin and a crime, and on
the other side of the line 1t is neither
sin nor crime. BY our greatest jurists,
such laws have been denounced and
held void.
Now. sir, let me tell you that I am
not above working with my own hands
to make an honest living. ! own good
farm and grow carloads Of pigs and
lots Of corn and grain, and care lit
tie for my office only so far as 1t puts
me in a position to maintain the right
and to denounce the wrong. / hope the
people did not elect me, by a great
majority, to come here and to act the
part of a coward or dummy.
And, now, sir, let me ask you few
questions:

Mother Praises Remedy
That RelieUed Her Baby
Dr. CGidDeRs Syrup Pepsin
Is a Dependable Family
Ln1nfipe.

Nearly all the sickness incident to
baby's life is due to constipation, or
inaction OF the bowels. At the first in
dication OF irregularity in this impor-
tant function, relief should be afforded
promptly. A mild laxative should be
administered to gently carry off the
congested waste and leave the stomach
and bowels free to perform their al
lotted tasks.
OF the various remedies recommend
ed to relieve constipation, the combina-
ton of simple laxative herbs with pep
sin, as prescribed by DR.. w. B. Cald-
well and sold in drug stores under the
name Of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
is the most effective. 1t containS no
opiate or narcotic drug, is pleasant to

and quickly brings the desired relief
IN an easy, natural manner.

better policy. In no sense has he been
doctrinaire. His writings have easily
given him leadership. No American
economist has appeared in dozen
years to contest with him the primacy
in this field.
1t is entirely desirable that such a
man should be made the chairman of
the uniformed commission. He will
doubtless now be given the opportuni-
ty to advise in the selection of the
other members. His own appointment
thus assures the high character of the
tariff investigation. The work should
soon be effectively under way.
