A COLLEGE
FOR FARMERS
Jared Smiths Views
On LahainaIuna
Scheme.

Jared Smith. director OF the Hawaii
Agricultural Experiment Station, is
strongly opposed to the idea OF having
an Agricultural College established at
Lahainaluna. He says:
"First-That the Agricultural College
should be for advanced students.
Second-That the Experiment station
and the Agricultural College, under the
intention OF the Federal law, belong
with each other.
Third-That If the Agricultural College
exists elsewhere than in Honolulu, Ill
timately, when the control of the Ex-
pertinent Station goes to the Territory
as 1t will, the station will necessarily
have to move to the college.
Fourth-That considerable money has
been spent on the station located here
and for that reason, among others, the
college should be near II or connected
with 1t.
Fifth-When the Agricultural Col
lege Is established II should be started
on as high a level as possible, and II
1t was thought advisable to start 1,
with any existing institution 1t should
go to one OF much higher grade thar
Lahainaluna, as, for instance, Oahu
College.
Sixth--The Territory must do Its
share to establish the college before !,
can take advantage OF the Federal law
which gives $4,000 the first year. SIG. 00t
the second. and so on up to $25, 900 al
the end of ten years. and the same sun
each year thereafter. The Territory II
expected to put up buildings. No par,
OF the Federal endowment can be used
for buildings or any form Of permanent,
improvements. These must be supplied
by the Territory.
Seventh-The Agricultural College
when started, should be equal to any In
| the United States. and 1t should be q
school where young men and women
can be taught, not simply to work. bu,
given a knowledge of the Fundamental
principles of agriculture. so as to nj
high positions. There ought to be a
sugar school, where sugar chemists car
be trained. Now we have to send stu.
dents to Baton Rouge and elsewhere
There should also be a good dairying
school and one to teach all branches OF
school or normal school basis. II the
attempt Is made to start on a secondary
school basis. 1t will take more than an
ordinary effort to get Federal appropri-
atoms.
Mr.. Smith is of the opinion that an
appropriation by the Territory of SIS 00(
would start college on good basis
and erect a good sized building, equip.
ped with some laboratories. Such an
appropriation for college building
here or I'm connection with the expert.
ment station, would obviate the neces.
sity of having more new station build.
| ings
Mr.. Smith says that IL the college
went to Lahainaluna and the Expert
ment Station followed 1t there. as II
would necessarily have to do. the latter
would have to have new buildings then
| in addition to those already erected
here.

HOUSE DOES A
LITTLE BUSINESS

The House of Representatives got
down to business in slight degree, the
reading of The Governors message and
the notice of several bills filling the
days SESSIONS. There was not only
fun house nut as well a full gallery
when the hour came for assembling.
Speaker Beckley said that before pro-
ceeding with business he would like to
ask that the various members OF the
House should meet with him at the
noon recess that he might learn their
preferences as to committees. The APP
pointment Of the committees was a
matter which under the rules devolyed
upon the chair and 1t was his desire
that all the places be filled i'm accord
snce with the wishes OF each member
So that the House could proceed with
the despatch OF the important business
before the session.
ON motion OF Kumalae a committee
OF three was appointed 10 notify the
Governor that the House was ORGANIC
ei and ready for business, the chairman
having already instructed the secretary
10 convey the same information To the
senate. The committee as appointed
was as follows Messrs, chillingworth,
Harris and kou, During the absence
of the committee the notification OF the

REPUBLICANS
TO HAVE
SHARE
Speaker Beckley
Ready for
Action.
(From Saturdays Daily.)

(rTOIll odtuiooy A|ohy1
"A, the Republican party has twenty
members and the Home Rule party only
ten, / believe that their repI esentation
on the committees should be In that
ratio" Speaker Fred w. Beckley thus
outlined his policy as to the makeup
of the standing committees OF the
House yesterday. and further said that
as the Republicans had agreed to the
placing of their members in caucus. the
only delay in making known appoint
ments was In the placing of the Home
Rulers. He continued:
II will determine these matters this
evening, and be ready to announce the
committees Of the House tomorrow.
The House Is now ready to get down to
work The taking arbitrary advantage
of my position to force a disproportion-
ate number of Home Rulers on the
committees has never been my inten-
tioa and I shall use my office only for
the purpose Of expediting the work OF
the Legislature. and not for making
personal capital. 1 believe there is
deal to be done, and hope the session
will be a hardworking one. There is
no reason why the party In the major
ity In this body should not bear the
brsnt OF the work. and I will give the
Republicans an opportunity to do It,"
The majority Of the House, through
a committee, met the speaker at the
noon recess and later, after the days
work had closed. and gave to him the
caucus list Of committee selections. The
list contained the names Of members
who wished to secure allotment to
certain lines Of work. and he assured
them Of his desire to cooperate with the
majority in expediting the business OF
the session. While nothing is given out
as to the selections of the Republican
caucus, 1t is the intention of the men,
beers to get down to work Immediately
and to rush the preliminary work.
Some surprise was shown last even-
ing when the members Of the Upper
House were informed that the county
bill was to be introduced into the
House. 1t is the intention of the spe-
cial committee appointed to have the
bill in charge for the Senate to push
It right along. The committee began
work last evening. so that the trans
1ation could be made in the very short
est possible time, and the printing be
done ready for the consideration Of the
measure next week II possible. The
idea of the Senators Is that there are
needed few amendments to the meas
ure. and these principally in minor de-
tails. One Senator said yesterday that
he thought the work of the Senate with
the bill could be done in two weeks
working time, and that the House.

consideration during those two weeks.
