Legislature.

said Petition is that all women who
are citizens of the United States may
be permitted to vote in regard to this
measure; if this request should be
allowed a new election law ought to
be passed this season; but your com
mittee douU. that the Legislature has
time to prepare said Law in proper
conditions.

DR.. RAYMOND is FIRM.
Will Not Give Even Soldiers Chance
to Cause a SMALLPOX
Epidemic Here.

A proposition to disembark eight
hundred and forty officers and men
from the troopship Fitzpatrick, now
lying outside the harbor in quarantine
on account of smallpox having broken
out on the vessel between San Fran
cisco and Honolulu, was made on Sat
urday to the Board of Health by Major
Robinson, Depot Quartermaster, U. S.
A., and only yesterday afternoon at a
special meeting of the Board, was the
request denied. The result is that the
ship MARY e. Foster" in the harbor,
has been engaged by the military au-
thorities and the troops will be placed
aboard until the transport can be fu-
migated.
At a meeting of the Board of Health
on Saturday request from the troop
ship was made by Major Robinson
that the men on board be permitted
to land and placed in quarantine at the
Kalihi detention camp until the men
can be furnished with new uniforms
which had undergone fumigation and
until the troopship had been thorough
ly disinfected.
Yesterday the Board of Health met
twice and through the firm attitude
of the President Dr. Raymond, sup
ported by DR.. c. B. Cooper, the re-
quest was denied.
The two. doctors rightly held that
it would place the city in the greatest
danger to permit $40 men from an in
fected ship to be landed here and
placed in a camp where more than a
handred well people are located, a
camp which from it's very situation
and peculiar surrounding cannot be
safely guarded in case any of the men
should wish to break through the
Gordon an occurrence which naturally
would happen.
This was at the morning session.
When the Board convened again at
3 o'clock, Major Robinson was present
accompanied by Colonel Maus, U. S.
A., Inspector of the Department of
California, which includes the mill
tary post here, and United States
District Attorney Baird ]. A. Nc

MONDAY, APRIL Is, 1901.
THE FIRST VETO.

After sleepness nights, the Gov
ernor of the Territory had decided
to veto the law, passed by the Legis-
lature, reducing the tax on female
dogs. The measure is one which
undoubtedly has caused great un-
easiness to the Chief Executive, as
being the first one relating to tax
questions. The Governor could not
be swerved from his duty and he
repudiated any tax law which can
lower q tax on bitches from 50 to Sl
and thereby equalizing the sexes Of
the canine family.
The Independent., 1901-04-15

The naivite displayed by the petit
TONERS that all women who are citi-
zens of the United States should be
permitted to vote on this measure is
amusing and astonishing. Who pre-
vent the dear ladies from voting ex-
cept they do it per hatchet? Let them
go on voting on any question they
please, but for the present, at least,
there voting will be a strictly private
piece of personal pleasure to them.
The Protective League is not sue
cess and never will be as long as it
is composed of men, who may mean
well, but who through lack Of practi
cal experience cannot grasp existing
conditions.

Major Robinson was asked to report
as to whether he had found any other
means for caring for the troops.
Major Robinson: Il asked that the
Board be re-convened this afternoon,

with a hypothetical case and l did not
wish to urge the Board to take vote

there were any facilities here for un-
loading the Fitzpatrick so it would be

for such a time as the government
might hold it. Several legal points

plications might come up. have also

| torney-General Dole, presented the
following resolution:
Whereas, there are now about four
hundred (400) uninfected people in the
detention camp who will have to be
provided for elsewhere in case it is
| used for the purpose requested; and,
| Whereas, there is no other suitable
place in Honolulu for the segregation
of smallpox or plague patients; and,
Whereas, it is believed that one
death from plague has just occurred
|
in the community; and,
| Whereas, the prevalence of small
poX greatly adds to the danger of in
fection of that disease here; and,
Whereas, the character of the po
pulation renders smallpox and plague
exceptionally fatal in this community
as well as difficult to control; and,
Whereas, a ship suitable for quar-
antine purposes can be had by the
Federal authorities which will serve
the purposes required;
Therefore, the Board of Health, rec
ognizing the uniform courtesy ant
great aid and kindness Of the Fedora
quarantine authorities and other Fed
eral authorities in the past, with ex
treme regret deems that it can mo-
comply with the request of the Fed
eral authorities without endangerint
the lives of ,Ae public entrusted to its
charge and without subjecting the Ia
cal community to greater danger anC
distress than will be caused to the
soldiers by denying the request.
The motion was seconded by DR.
Cooper and was unanimously adopted

A PROPER REPORT

. Last week the Protective League of
Honolulu presented report to the
Legislature praying that the so-called
Dispensary bill be passed. The petit
tion was presented Immediately fol-
lowing a strong resolution of the
Chamber of Commerce against the bill.
The Protective League evidently
thought that it would have great deal
of pull and their petition, signed by
Ga per sons of great deal of weight.
The promoters of the petition failed
to connect, however, and the follow
ing is the report presented by the COM
mittee to which the petition was re-
ferred in the Senate this morning.
1t reads:
HONORABLE SAM E. KAIUE,
President,
Sir:-Your Committee on Miscella-
neous Petitions to whom Petition No
26 was referred respectfully report as

nolulu contains about GA active mem
bers of whom about 60 were electors
at last election; while as fact there
are about 100 voters who took part

Representative
Government.

THERE is certain objector to
the initiative and referendum up at
Liberty, Mo-, and he tries to make
his point by saying that Thomas
jefferson declared that the people
were not qualified to legislate. We
are not sure that jefferson said
that; if he did we would like to
know in what connection. Like
some theological questions you
can prove almost anything from
Holy Writ by taking a verse here
and there, but the investigation
should always be followed to the
connection.
But how about representative
legislation at times! Let the
Louisville Courier journal speak
concerning our present Congress.
They do not earn their salaries, at
least. Hear TINS:
"The House is now composed of
3j7 members, of whom four-iifths
do hardly anything to earn their
salaries. To most of them, per-
haps, the idea of earning their sal
aries has not occurred. 1t is con
sidered unparlamentary to suggest
that IA Congressman ought to earn
any part of his salary. 1t is a very
liberal estimate to say that 20 per
cent. of the members Of the House
do practically all the work. Ten
per cent. of them do most of the
work. The remainder are merely
malingerers, who are already far
too numerous
How much better it might be if
we could keep that 80 per cent. at
home-who are certainly no better
qualified to legislate" than the
peOple-and send the other 10 per
cent to do the work with little
trial help from the whole people
in the line of direct legislation.
Mexico Missouri message. (Mexico, Audrain County, Mo.) 1899-1918, 1901-01-17

THE MESSAGE is of the opinion
if Audrain farmers will give their
farms the proper attention i'll the
rotation of crops, and i'll addition
with unstinted diligence save all
manure that accumulates and care
fully feed it to the soil, they will
have but little need for CONNER
cial fertilizers. Audraiu dirt is all
right. 1t never gets tired but it
may get hungry. AS you take
away from the soil in crops, pay
back in manure. Most any farm
where stock is kept accumulates
sufficient manure to keep the land
healthy and rich.

THERE are those who are bob
bing up here and there who OPP
pose the initiative and referendum.
One objection is it will give the
President or an executive officer
no chance to veto lcgislation-and
that seems to be about as wcighty
a point as they can get against it.
Well, that's wcighty, isn't iti
What the people want or do not
want, the President has no right
to veto.

CONGRESS does not approve of
home study for growing children,
and in accordance with its recon-
mendation the Board of Education
of the City of Washington has de-
cided that there must be no home
study in grades below the sixth.
Commenting on this action, the
Missouri School Journal says that
Yin the opinion of many thought
full men more children are hurt
from the lack of study than from
too much of it. If the children
had fewer things to study and gave
these more thought both in school
and at home the result would be
stronger and more satisfactory
mental development" There is
also Il movement on foot to reduce
the minimum of outside work re-
quired in the seventh and eighth
grades. 1t is the dreary routine
work that lessons the vitality of
the child, and not the good,
healthy intellectual effort. Judg-
ment on the part of the teacher is
all that is necessary to make home
study a delight and an aid to men
tai development instead of a him
.drance.
