: he wanted to show his feeling towar,
the Governor and how ridiculous tn,
whole thing was.
SENATE MESSAGE SENT BACK.
Speaker Beckley called for the regu
lar order which was the reading of tn,
Senate message returning House Bill
No. 3, being the six months current
appropriation bill, which now carries
$1,219, 446.S7.
When the list of changes was read
Kupihea moved to send the communica.
ton back to the Senate as an impor-
tant provision which was passed by the
Senate was omitted from the communi-
cation. This was done. The House
then took a recess to o'clock.
JUDICIARY COMMITTEES REPORT.
Immediately upon reconvening Chair
man Andrade said that the Judiciary
Committee was ready to report but be-
cause of the short time had no oppor-
tunity to prepare a written report. I'm
der suspension of the rules Andrade
then made his report verbally:
your Committee on Judiciary, to
which was referred House Bill No. 1
and the Governors message returning
the same without his approval, has had
the same under consideration and begs
to report thereupon as follows: Your
committee finds that the bill as passed
Is defective, and that the Governors
message thereupon is in accordance
with the law.
| Your committee has taken upon it
self to draft a new bill, with the same
objects and purposes. and herewith
submits the same. Your committee
therefore recommends that the mes
sage of the Governor be accepted and
that the bill submitted be acted upon at
once"
PAELE FINDS FAULT.
Paele explained that the two COM
mittees met but that Senator Achi
made the point that they could not sit
In conference, but as separate bodies
He gave as his personal opinion that
the Governors veto should be over
riden, and then the House could do as
it thought best about passing another
bill. This would put the matter up to
the Senate, which took the measure and
amended it but let it go through with
out being amended in the matter of the
title which is now declared defective.
For that reason the Senate should over
ride the veto.
KANIHO READY TO RESIGN.
kaniho supported Paeles plan to
override in long speech. In it's course
he called attention to the fact that the
expense bill for the regular session had
been signed and said that many bills,
with items for expense Illegally incur
red in them, had been pressed upon the
House by the Governor. He said: II
am ready to vacate my seat and resign
from the Legislature. Not on account
OF any feeling but because we cannot
stay here and expect the officials of
this House to serve us without having
their pay. 1t will take six days to pass
a bill and the Governor will take ten
days and the end of the session will
come and we will have worked in vain.
we should override the veto and If the
senate Will not do likewise, then It will
be time enough for us to vacate our
seats In the House." He said also that
he had heard that the reason for It all
was to force the passage of the salaries

their senses but he could not and gave |
1t up.
kUMALAE OFF THE TRACK.
kumalae went off on a tangent de-
claring that the Governor had no right
TO call an extra session but only n
special session. The chair promptly
called him down by reference to the
right section. Kumalae called atten-
tion to what he deemed an illegal act I
Of the Governor in appointing the code
commission saying the bill called for
one Hawaiian and the Governor had nj
appointed three white men. He decar-
ed that the Governor controlled the
senate and that body did what furnish
I'd an excuse for the veto of the bill.
The cause of 1t all was that the Senate
hoped to cause the House to suffer
munger and thus be forced to pass the
bills. The House, he said.
epresented the people and should stand
ipsfor the rights of the people.
Andrade forcefully argued, saving he
alked to the House and not to the GAL
cry, that the title of the bill was for
expenses of the extra session OF the .
louise, whereas there was no proyi-
ion for an extra session of the House =,
n the Organic Act. He showed that :
here could be no money drawn from !,
he treasury under It, for the\treasurer :
ould not legally pay out any money.
Pulaa spoke at length. his remarks
ot being translated in full. but their .
enor being that OF Kaniho's speech.
