an item of $3.50, balance on account Of
j. w. Kalua's paiai contract with the
Board of Health. 1t was a bill for 5000
on which $3.50 had been paid. The bill
was approved by the administration.
Mr.. Dckey asked If this was the
claim turned down by the Legislature
last year. Mr.. McCandless answered
that the bill was approved by the
president of The Board of Health.

bring in an amendment now.

for the item, but Mr.. Kaiue doubted the
vote. On a rising vote Dickey, Kaiue,

and presented a letter to the president,
which was read by the clerk as follows:
ITO the Legislature of the Territory of
Hawaii:
your House Joint Resolution Num-
Der One, providing for County Com
missioners, l am unable to approve, as
the provision attempting to cover the
pay of the Commissioners is indefinite,
and leaves the door open for wide diff
ferences of opinion. 1t is rarely salts
factory to the employer or the employ
ed to have the compensation arranged
after the work is done.
"On the other hand, should be glad
to sign Joint Resolution providing for
Commissioners to draft a County Act,
so modified as to cover the objections L
have raised.
Executive Chamber, April IS, 1904.
