tendent OF the Insane Asylum, was

Mr. T.. A. Mott-Smith reported ver-
bally that an expenditure of twice the
amount Of the present charge for exca-
Vations would make the system self
supporting; enlarging upon his idea. he
said that the same applied to the garh-
age arrangements. and outlined a plan
for making the entire system self-sup-
porting. His plan was not considered,
DR. Cooper ruling that the matter could
not be taken up until complete reports
were before the board.
DR. Sloggett reported that the ex-
penses of the Molokai and Kalihi set
Elements were as economical as could
well be managed, and that he could not
recommend any reduction
The committee to whom the matter
of licenses to sell poisonous drugs had
been referred recommended that Ii
censes be issued only to those who
could pass satisfactory examinations.
and the following resolution was
framed and approved:
THAT an answer be sent to the treas
urer advising him to issue licenses for
the sale of poisonous drugs to those
only who can pass an examination be-
fore three graduated pharmacists as to
the nature of the drugs and their ac-
lions, and also sign an agreement that
upon condition of being allowed the
privilege of selling poisonous drugs.
that they will abide by the regulations
of the Board of Health in regard to
the sale of the poisons.
I'VE believe that the recommendation
is necessary for the preservation of the
health of the public and for the pro-
lection of the class of people who would
be supplied by those who are applying
for the licenses"
