Senator oily" surprised the mem
bers by moving to adopt the report. 1t
took some minutes before the members
could catch their breath, and upon the
president putting the motion, adopted
it with whoop.
House bill No. l, providing a special
appropriation of 100000 for the exI enses
of the extra session, was then called
for it's second reading.
Immediately after the clerk had read
the title, Senators Baldwin, Carter and
White were on their feet clamoring for
recognition. White shouting his II move
to pass the bill"
The president recognized Mr.. Carter,
who sarcastically moved to increase the
amount of s45, 900, as this body was just
as dignified as the last, and did not see
why an equal amount should not be
appropriated.
Upon "Oily's" motion the bill passed
second reading.

for third reading today. What's the
use of that" said Crabbe; make 1t an
order for this afternoon wednesday,
The bill was placed on the order OF
the day for today.
The surprising event, as, we'll as the
! most sensational, was "Ony's" double
somersault
When the appropriation bill was call
ed, he moved to place all the items in
the Attorney Generals Department, in
the hands of the judiciary committee.
Instantly there was heard cries of
"kokua" from all the Republican mem
beers. Carter remarking it was the most
sensible thing he had heard during the
session.
DIR. Russell. who had been sitting half
asleep, demanded to know what that
most sensible remark was Upon
being informed he said he was doubt
full as to the compliment, as the Ju-
dietary committee did not enjoy the
confidence of the House.
He objected to the motion on the
ground that it would take too long a
time for them to report.
Senator Baldwin said ii was because
oily" was from Maui. that such a
good motion was made. He mentioned
talk he had had with Judge Hum
phreys at the lunch table, at which
the distinguished jurist advised that
the right course to pursue in regard
tfY,.r 1s., Il
of departments and find out from them
what positions should suffer.
Senator Russell offered an amend
ment. that the judiciary committee
should act in conjunction with a like
committee from the House.
The Senate judiciary committee, he
said, was composed of three Republi
cans. and If they were mixed with
some good Independent blood, some
good results might follow.
Where's your three Republcans?"
inquired Carter; Cecil Brown and
committee-he's not one" pointing to
oily"
Yes" said DIR. Russell he's a Re
publican; didn't you know that"
oily" rolled his eyes and smiled,
evidently pleased at the compliment.
senator Kalauokalani contended that
as there We're so many large lump
sums in the section, and so many high
salaried officials, the committee might
be influenced for friendships sake, and
necessary reductions would not take
place, He favored the Senate going in
To a committee OF the whole in order
to investigate the different items. No
disputes would then arise as to the /.
right or wrong of their decisions.
