Prendergast Gnd.) promptly moved
to table the communication. Makekau
Qnd) wanted the matter to go over
until Monday. Emmeluth Qnd.) said
there was no necessity of the House
wasting any time on that, as the Or
ganic Act was very plain on that score.
He declared that United States was in
control here now, and not a classics
tering government, and the United
States did not pay any subsidies.
Hogs (Rep) suggested that the Unit
ed States did pay the Oceanic Steam
ship Company a subsidy, but Emme-
luth declared it was simply a mail
contract that they held with the Am
erican government, and not a subsidy.
Hogs still contended that it was a
$751; 900 subsidy, but Emmeluth persist
ed that it was not. Makekau Und.)
again got the floor and attacked En-
meluth, claiming that he was not con-
sistent; that he had insisted on the
message going over until the courts
should decide whether the Governor
not willing to even allow discussion on
the o. r. e L. matter. Kaniho Qnd.)
seconded Makekau's argument, but the
motion to table carried.
The House then proceeded to discuss
what the various committees had been
doing during the past three days when
they were supposed to have been at
work. Makaipai Qnd.), chairman of
the committee on public lands, said
that he had no report, for he had al
ready made one, which had been ta-
bled Emmeluth, chairman of the jul
dietary committee and finance commit
tee, said that he had not finished his
reports, because the other committees
had not given him the necessary infor-
nation. Ewaliko (Ind.) said the mill
tary committee was nearly ready, but
had little more information to get.
Prendergast Ond) said that the agri-
culture and forestry committee would
soon be ready.
Finally, Monsarrat (Rep) presented
a unanimous report from, the select
committee on the pay of stenographers,
which appears below. The report was
tabled for consideration later. If it
is adopted, the old system of making
the Territory pay the expenses of pri-
vate cases will be continued. The re-
port reads:
Honolulu, Oahu. May "a, 1901.
Hon. j. A. Akina, Speaker House of Rep
resentatives.
Sir: Your special committee to whom
was referred the matter of stenogra-
piers. beg leave to report as follows:
Your committee after careful investiga-
ton find that in addition to their duties
as stenographers to the First Circuit,
the present employees, attend the Second
and Fifth Circuits; that their time is so
fully occupied that they do most of the
in their own time, and that
hey are men In whom the judiciary place
the utmost confidence. Your committee
are not in favor Of paying stenographers
by the day, and so much per folio for
Your committee would
that the pay of stenographers
for the First Circuit be placed at 81, 200
instead of $500. Your committee also
find that the Judiciary Department can
well dispense with the services of ste
nographer, as the stenographers of the
First Circuit have always done this
work, and as this item Is new" your
committee recommend that it be struck
put.
Your committee find that all stenogra-
