One More Bill
Must Be
Passed.
Long Period Salaries
May Be Made to
Conform.
Question OF County Work Still
Arouses Spirit of Antasonism
in the Lower Body.

This is the last week of the Legisla-
| ture. There is no question as to the
correctness of the statement, for the
sixtieth day of the session, if there
| should be no adSo urnment before that
time, will fail upon Saturday, July IL.
1t is expected, however, that the work
will be finished before that day and
the adjournment taken.
The last regular budget measure, the
eighteen months salary bill, comes up
this morning on third reading, all the
others having been cleared away. 1t
is not thought that there will be a
long conference necessary over the
long period expense measure, as the
additions to it are not extensive or rad
ical, and it is expected that the SEN
ate will concur The same action is
looked for on the Six Months salary
bill, though a motion was made to non
concur, action being deferred.
The House will hardly spend much
time over the Eighteen Months Salary
bill today, as it was threshed out rath-
e. fully on second reading. There aTe
however some things which will call
for argument, and the outlook is tcat
several hours may be given over to the
talking, which is always ready to low
when money matters are up. There
will be made efforts to have the sal
aries of certain officers conform to the
rates fixed for them in the six mouths
bill. AS it now stands some men will
work for the remainder of this year at
one rate. only to find that they will
have to suffer a reduction when the
new year opens, and to work along at
the lower price during the eighteen
months of the fiscal period. If these
changes are not made in the House on
third reading. 1t is certain that there
will be a longer conference on the
measure, for it will certainly be put in
shape before the two houses finally
pass it.
Despite the fact that the conference

GOVERNOR
WILL CD
To LANAI
Gay May Not Get
the Whole
island.
Grazing Land Must Not
Be Used for Grow
ing SisaI.
Government May Dispose OF Lanai
Land on Special Agreement
for Fibre Growing.

Il Gov. Dole and Land Commissioner
Boyd with such others as are interest
the middle of this month, on th'
Iroquois, to decide upon what shall be
done with The government lands on the
little island. Captain Rodman of the
Iroquois has very kindly placed that
vessel at the disposal of the Governor
for the purpose, though the trip will
probably not be made until after the
arrival of Admiral Terry, the new COM
mandant.
The Governors visit is to be made
for the purpose of considering two ap-
plications for Lanai lands. Chas. Gay
who now owns two-thirds of the island
has made application for the lease of
the remainder, which comprises some
of the best land on the island. L. E.
Pinkham and others have also made
application for the land, with the in
tention of starting sisal plantation,
but it is thought that the two en-
terprises are in some way connected.
Governor Dole is reported as being op-
posed to the idea of placing an entire
tcIa ~ as
is sought by Mr.. Gay. There are other
bitches in the matter, however, which
are likely to interfere with the growing
of sisal upon Lanai.
The lease on a considerable portion
of the land now under control of Chas.
Gay is about to expire. Most of this
land was leased for term of twenty
one years 20 Hayselden and Gibson as
pastoral or grazing land. Cay now
wants to renew this lease and, if sue
cessfuI. himself intends to start a sisal
plantation on a large scale. He wants
the twenty-one year pastoral lease re-
newed. This is where the difficulty
comes in. If granted a lease of Lanai
for pastoral purposes, and the land
used for something else. the lease will
be forfeited to the government.
Gov. Dole and Land Commissioner
Boyd have decided that sisal growing
is using land for agricultural purposes,
and if the sisaI plantation should be
started, the lease would be forfeited to
the government. On the other hand no
agricultural land can be leased by the
government for a longer term than FIVE
years. The man who wants to grow
sisal won't take a lease of that kind,
however, as it takes four years for the
