is simply a necessary matter of form
to make the money available. The ap-
preparation was made ait the last ses-
sion Of the Legislature and the money
is in the treasury. But provision
of the original bill is that only half
the money could be used in each year,
and the well-known delay in the Sc
lection of a site for the colleges tied
the money up so that this action is
necessary to get it out for use.

IN THE ASSEMBLY.
Standing Rules Adopted as Presented
by Committee.

After the opening yesterday at the
regular hour, $50, leave of absence
was granted to Messrs. Moultrie, Shan
ahan, Cartwright and Sims, to Mr..
Seward and to Mr.. Landsborough.
REPORT ON RULES.
The first business was the considera-
ton of the report of the Committee on
Rules. To this committee had been re-
ferEed Cutters resolution of Wednes-
day on committee clerks and attaches,
with Sanford's amendment ttreeto 1t
will be remembered that Sanford. on
behalf of the minority, wished to add
to the list recommended by Cutter clerks
and Sergeants alarms for the Demo-
cratic minority and for the San Fran
cisco delegation. The committee rec
commended the adoption of both resolu-
ton and amendment, and also a few
minor amendments to the list of stand
ing rules first presented.
Among these amendments was one
which made rule 75 read as follows:
mo additional attaches shall be ap-
pointed or elected except such attaches
or employees as the Speaker in his judg-
ment may deem absolutely necessary to
carry on the business of the Assembly,
in which case he is authorized to make
such appointments.
BEFORE ADOPTION.
The whole matter being before the
House. a good deal of discussion en-
sued, some of it little acrid. Mr. Cam
iretti, as leader of the Democratic mi
ncrity, made lively talk ON economy
He said this Legislature had come be-
fore the people pledged to economy and
reform. So nobly had they expressed
their devotion to these virtues that
they had received encomiums from the
pr ess and the people all over the State
There had been much talk and many
promises concerning the cutting down
of the number of salaried employees, but
it seemed to him that the lists that had
been read in this house did not carry
out their pledges. Let us be honest,
said Caminetti IF we need all these
attaches, let us have them, but don't
let us claim to have made reforms UNI
less we have really done So
The rule allowing the Speaker to ap-
point other attaches if in his Judgment
it should be necessary having been
criticised, Mr.. Cutter said he had such
confidence in the Speaker that he was
quite willing to leave the matter in his
hands.
CAMINETTTS CRITICISMS.
Mr. Caminetu claimed that the House
was starting out with too many en-
rloyes. Twenty years ago, when the
Legislature sat 12O days instead of CO.
and when the volume of work was
much greater and there was a great
deal of special legislation to do, there
were not nearly so many assistants
employed as now. He said the Republi-
cans in caucus had parceled out the
patronage at SS per member.
Caminetti then took the list of at
taches and went part way down it with
a running fire of ridicule and criticism,
scme of which cut pretty close to the
line, and his fire was SO we'll directed
that he got tie majority, and especially
those who had been instrumental in

an informal meeting last night and

Delegates From Hawaii Relate
Their Experiences.

The delegates from Hawaii to the Y.
p. S. C. E. Convention in San Fran
cisco met in Kawaiahao Church last
night TO relate, for the benefit OF those
interested in the work of the society
their experiences while in the city.
The church was filled with people, the
majority being young natives.
In front of the pulpit was a large Ha-
waiian flag. The remainder OF the
church was appropriately decorated.
The young ladies and gentlemen who
represented Hawaii so well arose in
their turns and told of some particular
things that were brought forcibly home
to their minds. At the close of the
meeting the Kawaiahao girls sang two
songs. The meeting was very inter
esting one and pleased all who attend
ed
