Salary of Minister, $4,000
Passed.
Chief clerk, $1,000.
Rep. Baker moved $4,000.
Rep. Rice moved it pass as in the
bill.
Rep. Rosa said he had moved tc
raise the salary of the Clerk of the
Supreme Court to $1,000 to make ii
equal with that of the chief clerks o.
other departments. The House ha(
voted his motion down with the as
sstance of the Ministers. This sal
airy had hitherto been $4,000, bu
this Reform budget proposed to in
crease it by $1,000. A Hawaiian
clerk such as that of the Supreme
Court had great deal of extra la
Dor on account of his knowledge o
two languages.
Noble Macfarlane was opposed OIL
general principles to increasing sal
aries of officials, but from his eX
perience in the finance committee h
could say that the chief clerk of tn
Interior had more work than an
other clerk. There was u perfel
, system of checking in that depart
ment, brought about by years c
hard work by the present chief clerk
! The salary was none too much, an
, he hoped it would pass as in tn
bill.
Rep. Kahoolsano supported RI
duction of the item. He had n
doubt the hon. Noble (Macfarlane
was correct as to the work, but
bill had just passed to transfer til
Z care Of prisoners to another depar
5 ment, and another bill was intro
duced to relieve it of the postal SCI
II vice.

that had been said about I'll
= amount of work. He was sorry IL
Minister of interior was detained .
home by his physicians order. I'll
n Cabinet was willing to take the sem
+ of the House on the question, but
n believed that the old salary
$4,000 was suilicient-that is, that
J. competent man could be got for Il
re position at that amount.
Rep. Nawahi was in favor of i
'r duction.
Passed at $4,000.
in Salaries of assistant clerks, SIS
ly 400.
n Minister Brown moved the lite
~ pass. There are five assistant cler

: head one at $4,000, two at $36
and two at $2400 each. Then .:
400 is wanted for two junior clerk
