which should cau to it's aid such young
men Of the community as they needed
and the augmented committee should
frame a scheme of action TO be sub
mitted 10 a general meeting which
would be called at a future date. That
meeting will be the first Of a series
which will form and continue the Mu-
nicipal League. Ii was proposed that
the object of the League should be the
study of municipal questions and per-
haps embody the results in a charter
which might be submitted to the Leg
islature for ratification.
The discussion of the question
brought out many speakers, but the
burden OF the talk was that there was
discuss the many plans for city gov
ernment, assemble a library devoted
to civic topics and furnish a medium
for education in city matters for the
young men who will make up the cleo
torate of the future municipality. The
speakers brought out the fact that
there was TO be no close corporation
but that every class and race would be
urged to take part in these discussions
so that the work accomplished would
be without any SAVIOR Of partisanship,
but would appeal to all citizens as the
best possible basis for an organic law.
Dorin Andrews opened the discus
sion OF the motion to adopt the com
mittee's report. He urged that ac-
quaintance with all sides OF the ques-
ton was needed and that such an or
ganiZation as was proposed would
bring together men whose knowledge
of local conditions would enable them
to frame such a charter as would be
best for the city. Mr.. Andrews said
that as the Legislature would pass upon
anw charter for the city that the cleo
tion of good men to that body must not
be overlooked in the needs OF the city.
Professor Hosmer took the stand
that good city government could only
come from every man doing his whole

to pay any claims. Simply, to recon-
slider them and dispose of them as We
understand the matter"
Then that disposition might mean
the simple shelving of the claims, and
non-action. Would that transfer the
liability from the Republic to the Ter
ritory and to the United States govern
ment?' said the councillor.
1T would not be non-action, but
simply decision as to the merits of the
claims, or a decision against some OF
the claims" replied the President
calmly, awaiting further queries. But
they did not come. The councillor sat
down, and the incident closed.
Those Quarantine Bills.
The quarantine bills which were in
Cured during the enforced stay of a
large number of Chinese who were
detained at Quarantine Island by
United States Chinese Inspector j. X.
Brown last year, were again the source
of much argument in the Council.
In large measure the argument
was based on the liability of the local
Government for bills contracted by a
Federal officer who declared later he
had no responsibility in the mainte-
nance of those in detention. The ar
gument was commenced by the Secre-
tary reading the proceedings which
occurred before the Executive on April
is, when j. ID. McVeigh was present at
a conference, and a stenographic rec
ord kept of the conversation which
dealt with the question of responsible
ity of ordering the goods from Homo
lulu merchants.
President Dole said: The Execu-
tive Council has endeavored to secure
information upon the subject but have
not been able to as far as they wish.
Mr.. Reynolds is absent and we can get
no information from him yet. Prob
ably the final obligation to pay these
bills Is on the Government OF the
United States. But IL the agent of the
Board of Health ordered these goods
on account OF the Board, this Govern
ment is liable. Mr.. Reynolds state
ments disagree with Mr.. Mcveigh's u.
