The loan bill was next taken up and
Senator Achi moved that the title be
amended to read that the total appro-
priated be 81. 100000 Instead of s2.6I5. $40
which he said was above the limit. He
said that the bill would never be sign
ed either by the President or Governor
as it was clearly contrary to the Or
ganic Act
Senator Baldwin said he believed the
bill should be cut down but that none
of the Senators would consent to have
items cut out in their own districts.
He commended however that the Or
ganic Act did not prohibit the passage
of the bill. but that the Governor could
not issue bonds beyond the legal
amount. On motion of Achi the bill
went over until today.

EXTRA SESSION.

This is practically settled, as much 81
as anything that has not come to pass

the men who have forced this condition
VIII fail TO convince the executive thai
they should have an extension of the
session. that they may consider general
measures.

nance yesterday decided to not report
Immediately the appropriation bills the
seal was set on the ending of the sixty
days without decided attempt to COM
pIete the work for which Congress set
apart the two months of the IegisIa-
tive period Thus will the Legislature
have shown in two direct instances the
contempt that is felt for the United
States Congress. After the National
Legislature had refused statehood to
two territories In which languages 9TH
er than the English are used largely,
the Hawaiians passed a resolution ask
ing that their language be made an
official tongue here. And again, when
Congress had given to this Territory
the same length of session that is de-
rnanded for the business of the major
ity OF the States of the Union, they
simply decline to be guided by the wish
OF the supreme lawmaking power and
declare that it is obligatory that the
Governor call an extra session when
they fail Of their duty. So they will get |
the extra time, and the extra months
pay as well.

it's legislative work in sixty days. The
same is true of the great states of the
Middle West and of some of the largest
states of the East and South. Yet here.
with small population and small inter
ests, more time is needed.
There is no showing on which the
Legislature. now past the period dur
ing which it could pass bills, and make
them law despite the veto Of the Gov
ernor, Is entitled to be considered as
willing to pass laws for the general
good II permitted to continue in ses-

sary. therefore they must be given
added time. But further it is not like ,

allowed hack driving to be done by per-
sons with blue eyes and red hair.
