they did there her name would re-
main forever in the hearts of the
people. BY passing this item they

in Hawaiian in favor of the passage
of the item, followed in the same
language by Rep. Paehaole against
it.

ture, but not for the amount spent

Minister Gibson, referring to the
recommendation of the committee
visiting Government buildings, moved
to insert.
Repairs to Insane Asylum. ...... $1,000
Rep. Kaunamano opposed the
item, considering the item just passed
would afford enough for repairs.
Rep. Castle was delighted with
the small economy of some hon.
members this afternoon. The Asylum
should have been under the Board
of Health instead of the Interior
Department, and there was no reason
why more parsimony should be
exercised with regard to that insti-
tuition than to the operations of the
Board of Health.
Minister Gibson said the $40, 200
would have to be very carefully
managed in order to make it suffice.
There was double the number of
inmates that there was two years
ago. Four additional attendants
besides u female nurse had to be
engaged. An improved water supply
was required. and SIS, 900 could very
well be spent.
Rep. Kaunamano said he had no
particular objection to. the item.
Noble Walker thought the pro-
posed amount would not be enough
for the requirements. Some of the
rooms of the institution needed to
be enlarged. He could see no rea-
son why the house should desire to
reduce this appropriation, when it
was so liberal in other matters.
Passed at $4,000.

of last period.

Minister Gibson said this used to
be done in the Attorney Generals
Department as part of the police
service. He understood contract

alone, who made the contracts. He
moved the item pass. Carried.

member for having relieved his de-
