mlnutely into the TRANSACTIONS OF
each others departments. For him
self, he was not going to expend
money on roads and bridges that are
not ordered to be made by the Leg
islature. OF course there was
margin for general improvements IN
the contingent item, within which
the Minister could exercise discre-
ton.
Rep. Kaulukou said Mr.. Patty had
advanced money on this work and
should be repaid. The hon. men,
Der for Molokai said he ought to lose
the money, but that was narrow
minded opinion. He did not APP
prove of the Minister spending
money without authority, but good
faith should be kept with public
creditor.
The item passed.

ance due Estate of Jas. G..

ton, and it carried.

Minister Gibson said there was
not the same necessity for this officer
now as when the item was inserted,
as there was regular guard to the
building.
Rep. Keau moved to strike the
item out.
Struck out.
Pay of Six Messengers at $40
each per week. SG.24O
Minister Gibson moved to strike
out, in accordance with revised esti-
mates. In answer to Rep Kaulu-
kou, he added that he overlooked
the fact the original item left his
department without a messenger,
and moved to insert
Messenger Interior Department. 81 200
Rep. Brown moved to amend to
81, 200, the same as last period,
which Rep. Dickey supported and
Minister Gibson accepted, and was
carried.

Rep. Hayselden moved $4,000.
Rep. Richardson wanted to know
what was actually required.
Minister Gibson replied that there
was about 81 900 indebtedness for
printing, and $500 for compilation
Of laws. Perhaps if the item was
placed at Sc, 900 it would meet all
the requirements.
Passed at $4,000.
Books and Stationery for Regis
trar of Conveyances.. $500
Passed.
Noble Bishop moved to insert
Aid to Queens Hospital. $4,000
At the proper place he would move
to insert the hospital tax, with
which this item would be sufficient.
Rep. Keau moved $4,000.
Noble Bishop said if the hon.
member would show him that $1O,-
900 would be sufficient it would be
all right.
Rep. Richardson asked if some
thing was not likely to be paid over
to the hospital, within the next two
years, from the estate of Queen
Emma.
Noble Bishop--That is altogether
uncertain.
Rep. Kaulukou thought before
money was voted the hospital, the
Assembly should have an account of
the expenditure of tho last grant.
Noble Bishop said the Queens
Hospital was not Government in
stitution, although largely aided by
the Legislature. The accounts we're
published, according to the charter,
every six months. That had been
done every six months since it was
established 25 years ago. Some
times there was small balance
and there had been slight deticien-
cies, when money had to be Dor.
rowed. He thought $4,000 would
be barely sufficient this period.
Passed at $4,000.

sentatives. ........... $1,000
