sion was by Chief Justice Frear and
concurred in by the other justices.

THE POSITION.

for Eight Years-Some Changes in
the Personnel of the Office.

1T is hard to say just yet" said the
new assessor this morning, Just what
changes will be necessary in the tax
office. None of the men now there will
be let out but if the income tax sticks
larger force will be necessary and
some of the men will have to be shift
ed a little to meet the new conditions"

HOUSE OPPOSES SENATE
A VERY STORMY DEBATE THIS
MORNING.
Beckley Offer Resignation and Make
kau Wants to Adjourn Sine Die-Sen-
ate Amendment Arouses Feeling.

With Beckley Offering his resignation
as member of the house and Make
kau fighting for an adjournment sine
die, the house had a lively session this
morning. The whole morning was spent
in wranglng over a proposal which
came from the Senate, amending the
latest expense appropriation bill SD
that it was for $4,000 instead of $4,000
as passed by the house. The ameHd-
ment was finally rejected.
The proposed addition aroused En-
meluth Beckley and Makainai, who
made speeches against the increase.
Makekau spoke in favor of $40, 900.
Fourteen votes were registered in favor
of the amendment and it was declared
lost, sixteen, or a clear majority of the
members, being required for final pas
sage of a bill.
Makekau argued long on the meaning
of final passage. He said il didn't real
ly mean the final passage but
the third reading only. Dckey said
that the final reading was the last one
and Monsarrat proposed distribution
of dictionaries among the members.
The speaker sarcastically regretted that
Makekau hadn't made his point at the
beginning of the regular session.
Il didn't know about ii because L
wasn't a lawyer then" said Makekau
The chair stuck to the ruling and
Makekau got reconsideration after a
very long wrangle.
There was a tangle of rulings and
much evident scheming to get the
amendment through, in the midst OF
which Beckley offered his resignation.
He declared that the senators were
making the bill as big as possible to
discredit the Home Rule party and the
native voters.
The amendment was lost again and
the disappointment Makekau moved to
adjourn sine die. Several members sec
onded the motion. Dickey said the or
ganic act prevented such action with
out consent of the senate, and Mon
sarrat said that the organic act ought
to be suspended.
Dickey moved to send the bill back
to the senate with notice that the house
did not concur i'm the amendment. Gar
Akina told the majority they must not
pass such a motion. Half a dozen mo-
tion to adjourn, sine die, for three days,
one day and till Monday morning were
made and motion to adjourn till Mon
day carried.
In the house there is much feeling
against the senate, on account of it's
tactics lately. Home Rulers say their
Senators have betrayed them, and that
the senate is trying to make the whole
session useless to throw discredit upon
the native voters.

LAND LEASESPASSING Of BILL NO. 2.
PRENDERGAsT MAKES CHARGES
TOO.
Work of Revision and Typewriting
Taken Out of His Hands-The Sec
ton That Was Cut Out.

The printing committee row in the
House has aroused something of a
scandal which is the subject of much
talk among the members The Make
kau Home Rulers are accusing Prem
dergast of being the whole committee,
and making various charges OF exhor-
bitant prices paid for typewriting
Young Ewaliko, son of Representative
Ewliko, is declared to have lost his
job as typewriter because his father
entered the Makekau camp.
Prendergast takes all responsibility
for the changing of House bill number
2, and insists that he was right in
making the change. He also declares
that the work, rightfully belonging
to his committee, of revising and type
writing the bill was taken out of his
hands by the clerk. Prendergast says
the bill was typewriter first and then
turned over to him, the clerk refusing
to give it to him for revision in the
usual way. When he got 1t he cut out
section four, which was as follows:
section A. Every appointed employe
OF the territory, who has faithfully
and continually served the same for
more than five years prior to the COM
mencemeI of the biennial period for
which these appropriations are made,
shall receive and be paid, during the
first year of said period an advance
of five per cent over the present wage
or salary and for the second year an
advance of like amount"
Speaker Akina was the first to find
out that section four had been drop
ped, and he went to Prendergast with
blood in his eye. Prendergast put the
section back, but he still declares that
it was rejected by a vote of the House,
though the minutes show otherwise.
The row has developed the strange
fact that House bill number 2, appro-
priating salaries for the next two years
in all denortments, did not take the
ordinary course through the revision
and printing committee. when |
went to get a copy to revise it and
prepare it for the Senate" said Prem
dergast this morning, the clerk told
me it was not ready and that he was
getting it typewriter. / said that it
was my business to revise it and have

committee on revision and printing, but

SENATE RAISING ITEMS.
GOING BACK TO GOVERNORS S
ESTIMATE.
Departments Given Everything They
Require for Expenses-Action in
Raising Unanimous.

The Senate devoted it's time this
morning to consideration of the ex-
penses of the departments and bu-
reauX. The beginning was made on the
office of the Territorial Secretary and
continued to that of the Treasurer and
then down the line. In every instance
the appropriations were raised to the
official estimates of the Governor sub
mitted at the regular session, except
in cases where department heads had
said that they could get along with
less. A few items, all minor ones, were
inserted. When the Senate finished the
items that part of the bill was prac-
tically a duplicate of the Governors s
estimates.
A feature of the session was that
everybody was for putting the items
back to where they originally were. AS
each item was read a motion to raise
to the original figure would meet with
a chorus of seconds from both sides.
Even Kanuha Joined the work.
The intention of the Senate, after
changing for about score of times, is
now to pass the bill without any radi-
cal changes, or do now what they
might have done forty days ago. They
believe that with the sales of public
lands and the tax outlook that there
will be money enough to stand it, At
any rate, say the Home Rulers, if
there is not enough money it will be up
to the Governor to find more.
John Emmeluth, C. H. Dickey and
other members of the House were in
terested spectators of the work of this
morning. Emmeluth sighed bitterly to
see some of the items which he had
worked - hard to cut down, hoisted
again to the executives estimate. Ma
kekau says the Home Rule Senators
were to blame on their own advice. AS
better understanding now exists be-
tween the two houses it is not unlikely
that the lower body will accept and
naSs the Senate'S bill.
