Pissed at $4,000.


(sl2,000 in revised estimatcs)
Rep. Brown desired an expana-
ton.
Minister Gulick said there were
contingent appropriationsfor various
branches. For instance, there had
been 5000 contingent for bridges
last period, which was not enough to
build one good bridge when the
Island of Kauai was denuded of
bridges by storm. If there had
been sufficient contingent for pub.
lie buildings, the Custom House
would not have been allowed TO 90
to wreck.
Rep. Brown moved $4,000. Re-
counting amounts already voted for
particular buildings, he considered
this amount would be sufficient.
The item as in the bill was reject
ed.
Rep. Kaulukou moved S12. 900,
which was lost.
Passed at $4,000.
Rep. Brown moved to insert
DUllulug Courthouse anu I.OckllD III
koolauloa. .,...........a 900 90
That was one of the districts with
out courthouse, and court had to
be held under tree or in a China
mans shop. The Government had
the land and material, and 81 800
would put up as good building as
the Eva courthouse, which cost
about $1,000.
Noble Walker said, on the autho-
rity of the Judge of the District,
that lawsuits we're very rare there,
and he therefore regarded the pro-
posed expenditure as Unnecessary.
Minister Gulick said it would be
unfortunate if too small an amount
was voted, and the people be de-
prived of their courthouse.
Rep. Brown said he would make
contract for 81, 800, and if it cost
more he would pay it out of his own
pocket.
Minister Gulick said if the hon.
member would do so on the plans
and specifications of the EVA court
house the wind was taken out of his
sails and he had no more to say.
The item passed.
Rep. Nahale moved to insert
Courthouse and Lookup at North
kona. ........... -. ~ ,5u0
Passed.
Rep. Kaai moved to insert
Repairs and Enlargement of
N0t1, and nn1-t
Hama, Maui. .............. 81 900
Rep. Aholo said this would come
under head of repairs to Government
buildings.
Rep. Kalua agreed with this, and
moved to insert
Repairs of Courthouse and
Lookup at Honuaula........ 5000
Rep. Kaai objected to his motion
getting the 90 by in this manner,
and proceeded to argue the neces-
sity of passing his item.
Rep. Kalua contended the Hama
building was not in very bad con-
dition by any means, and moved
that $500 be granted, as amply sufli-
cient.
Rep. Richardson supported the
item for Hama.
The item passed.

Courthouse at Waimea, Ha-
