TO horizontal light Is based upon the
theory that its rays may be contaminat-
ed by passing through the dust and va
pors which escape from the soil In any
case. 1t Is most important that light
should be freely admitted. 10 those lower

After Passing Vote OF Censure
on the Government it Adjourns
sine die.
Yesterday afternoons session clos
ed the labors Of the Council Of State.
1t was rather remarkable closure
on account of the fact that thirteen
OF the Councillors joined in voting
resolution amounting to vote OF
want OF confidence in the govern
ment in connection with the court
OF claims. The final paragraph of
the resolution is as follows:
That, as the Executive Council
refuses to accept the advice of the
Council of State and does not heed
resolutions to the same effect passed
by the Honolulu Chamber of Com
MERGE and by macs meetings OF the
sufferers, that, therefore, in order to
relieve the present unfortunate stu
alton as soon os possible, the Coun-
Gil OF State respectfully requests
that President Mckinley advise the
the Executive Council of Hawaii as
TO what further steps are to be taken
in this matter and also that the
Secretary of the Council of State
forward copies of these resolutions
to President Mckinley and to the
Executive Council OF Hawaii.
This was adopted by the follow
ing vote:
Jones, Bolte, Kennedy, Ena, Isen-
berg, Kaulukou, Gear, Kane, Con
salves, Allen, Achi, Mott, M. P. Ro-
binson.
Councillor A q .R obertson voted
against it on the grounds that it was
beyond the province of the council
and inpertinent.
| Councillor Gear again asked the
Minister of Foreign Affairs for the
correspondence between the local
government and the department OF
State, Washington, relative to the
claims OF aliens and others impr,son.
