demon EAL0BYNNR THE SENATE AND MLS AO MHA 2l0D1 1H OIL RUNNING SHORT
A WARM DISCUSSION ON THE
SUBJECT.
Arises on a Bill Which Carries an APP
preparation and Seems a Cinch for
Whoever is Appointed.

Senate Bill No. S6, relating to the ap-
pointnent of bailiffs for certain courts
IN the Territory of Hawaii and dehn-
ing the duties and powers of such
Dallits and fixing the amount of their
compensation, and providing for the
payment of such compensation. was
brought forward for third read
ing. An oral report had been made by
the majority of the judiciary commit
tee tavoring It's passage Carter OBJ
jected TO the bin on the ground that it
carries an appropriation, and wanted
TO know II the Senate was going to es-
tabiish precedent i'm the matter of
placing appropriations in bills, and said
he was sorry that he couldn't have
shown Senator White the introducer of
the Dlh, the errors in the same
Achi said as far as he knew. only one
judge wanted bailifts, and for the past
twenty years the police department
had been performing the work of bail
MS ana there never has been any kick
coming.
Senator Paris asked White If the
salaries stated in the bin We're meant
for the time the bailiffs were employed
IN their duties or for the year around
ana said the reading of the bin favored
the latter White jumped up with his
previous question cry, Ignoring the
question propounded by Senator Faris
a stirring discussion: Senator Carter
Achi and Cecil Brown objected strong
ly what they called the high handed
proceedings of the Senator from La
haina and the manner the President
upheld him. What looked like the be-
ginning of warm mix up was abruptly
cut off by Senator Kanuha moving a
recess until 1:8O
When the Senate opened this morning
IA majority of the Judiciary Commit
tee, consisting of William White and s.
h. kaiue, reported, adversely on Cecil
Browns bill, Senate Bill 4, eXempting
certain property from executions The
principal point in the report was that
the Dill is practically the same as Act
70, brought in by Senator Kalauoka-
lani. Achi moved to table for consid-
Grafton with the bill This was lost and
the report was adopted Following is
the report:
The majority of the judiciary Com
mlttee to whom Senate Bill No. 4. en-
titled An Act relating to exemption
or certain property from attachment
and execution and repeating Section
l4S3 OF the Civil Laws" beg leave TO
report that they have carefully exam
med and considered said bill. The OBJ
1ect of the bill is praiseworthy in the
extreme.
The policy of all American States and
Territories is to provide liberal exemp-
tons so far as to give one the opportun-
ity to mend his broken fortunes and to
protect the wife and children against
the improvidence and recklessness of
the husband and father; also to secure
to the labOrer and the professional
man the tools and appliances and the
DOCKS and instruments with which
they respectively earn a livelihood
While commencing to the fullest extent
the very laudable purpose of this bill
we yet deem it illiberal and congested
and recommend that the same do not
pass.
Senate Bill 26 with the same object
in view and yet more comprehensive
ana more in the interests of struggling
humanity is in the opinion of the ma
jority free from any objections.
A majority of the same committee
strongly recommended the passage of
Senate Bill 26, bearing on the same sub
lani.
Cecil Brown attacked the last report
and defended Bill A. The report was
adopted, which passed the bill on sec
ond reading. 1t will be read a third
time tomorrow
Mr.. Paris introduced a resolution
asking for $4,000 for roads in South
Kona. Referred to Committee on Pub
,ic Lands.
Mr.. Kaohi had a resolution, asking
FOR small amounts for various roads
On Hawaii.
Senate Bill No. to repeal sections
1917, 1918 and 1919 of the penal laws re-
lating to forest roads passed third
reading.
Senate Bill No 81, an act to regulate
the fees of witnesses and jurors was
called for third reading Paris favored
the passing of the bill, but objections
were raised by Senators j. T. Brown,
Cecil Brown and Carter. Achi favored
a postponement, as the bill he said, is
quite faulty; Senator White did not
take part in the discussion for some
Ftime, but finally come in with his in
evitable II move the previous ques-
ton" and said he wanted the bill pass
ed. He was ruled out of order and
further consideration of the bill was
postponed until tomorrow.
