By vote of seven 10 seven the
conference committee OF the Lcglsla-
ture yesterday laid aside the military
appropriations for consideration at an
other meeting. The vote came on the
motion ~ Emiacluth 10 strkc cut all
the itens FOR that branch. which had
been ins rted by the Senate. The to-
tai OF tn appropriations Is $3l ESQ but
there was never an attempt to pass
upon thu various Items OF that total,
Chairman Baldwin announced as the
clerk read the item, that he was IA
favor of the military appropriations.
but that he would move TO cut down
the amount which is set aside for Incl
dentals, $1,000. lie bad no chance TO
do this however as the motion 20
strike out came with a rush. 1t was
seconded by aGousaurt and the vote
showed a tie, every member Of the
committee voting. Those who favored
the striking out OF all the appropria-
lions were Emmeluth, MonsarTat, Ma
kapaahu, Beckley. Makanai, Puuki and
Kalauokalani.
There were enough interesting mat
ters In the session to make up for
the many dry and stale meetings OF
committee. There were fierce struggles
for moneys and many hearty laughs at
the efforts of the district representa-
tives t. get all they could for their
sections. one OF the hardest-fought
battles was a draw, as the committee
adjourned in the midst of 1t. 1t was on
the amendment of the Senate. which
inserted in the bill the provision for
the payment OF the subsidy for the
Oahu Railroad. This is the closing Item
OF the bill, and had it gone through
there would have remained for today's
discussions only the matters OF the
military establishment.
When the subsidy came up the mat
ter was presented by Senator c.
Brown. He said that this was not In
his opinion a thing which should give
rise to much discussion, as it was the
carrying out of a contract entered into
by the government and the railroad.
The road had been SIilt with the
promise Of the government, expressed
by legislative enactment that a sub
sidy of soc mile would be paid, and
without that there would have been
no road, and as we'll none of the large
enterprises which have sprung up
along It's line. for the prime mover IN
all Of them was the same man who
started the railroad project. The ques-
ton, he said, was simply whether or
not there should be a repudiat m by
this Legislature of a contract which
was entered into with good faith on
the part of the government and the
railroad promoters.
There were several questions as to
the fact that the road had been built
with this promise of support, and then
Represen tative Makanai said that he
thought there was no question but that
the railroad was entitled to the money
as the contract was & binding one. lie
called attention to the number of
plantations which had been brought
into existence along its line by the
presence of the railroad, and the
amount of taxes that they paid into
the government treasury, and said that
this alone showed the good judgment
displayed in aiding the building of
such & line.
This brought out Emmeluth with a
