MUST NOT SPANK
EVEN BAD GIRLS
LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE FINDS
PLANT AGAINST ATKINSON.

Miss Corson, teacher, and DR.. Rod
gers, secretary of the Board of Educa-
ton, were the witnesses this morning
before the Legislative Joint Committee
which is investigating the Department
of Public Instruction. No important
testimony was adduced. Miss Corson
had something of a grievance against
the Superintendent, on account of hav-
ing been told mot to do it again" after
she had mildly whipped a bad girl in
her school. Questions from Dunno
broughtzyOut the fact that the order
probably came from the Commission
ers of Education.
1t appeared from the testimony that
the bad girl was very bad one, and
that after standing her antics a long
time, Miss Carson did some gentle
spanking. The parents complained to
Mrs. Hall, one of the commissioners
The result was an order from the Su-
perintendent that bad girls must not
be spanked any more. Miss Corson did
not seem to like this order. 1t consti-
tuted the most serious testimony yet
brought forward against Superintendent
Atkinson, and the legislators were natu-
rally deeply shocked that he should in
terfere with the spanking of really
bad girl even though it did refute the
charge of showing no interest in the
conduct of the schools.
On being questioned by Dunno, how
ever, Mss Corson spoiled the case. II
appeared that the anti-spanking order
came from Atkinson as a fiat of the
commissioners and that they all object
ted to spanking.
The committee will meet again tOmor-
row morning to hear further testimony.

regarded as unsatisfactory, nor do /
want to try and hang on for the sake OF
the salary. But there were charges
which were being worked up i'm private
involving others besides myself, and ]
did not want to resign while they were
pending. Resignation at such a time

THE HOUSE.

What is Governor Carter going to do
with the Sunday bill as passed by both
Senate and House? That is the question
which was discussed by many people
in and about the Capitol this morning
and there was at least large sized
impression abroad that the robin 's-egg-
blue chamber was to be used as an
execution room for Quinn's only child.
The suggestion that he might veto the
Sunday bill in the full expectation that
the House and Senate will pass it over
his veto was instantly entertained. BY
so doing the governor would gain the
applause of all the truly good and the
non-elect would have their sane Sun
day. That the two chambers would pass
the bill over the Governors veto is as
sured for there are % in the House and
II in the Senate pledged to its support.
If however the Governor wishes to
defeat the bill tactics for delaying it
will be easily found Minor defects in
its construction or in it's punctuation
may be found and it may be sent back
for correction each time. The Legisla-
ture has completed one day less than
half it's term of go days and there is a
raft of work ahead of it so that the
time left is by no means great
The matter is up to the Governor and
the outcome is being watched with in
terest
Secretary Atkinson notified the House
that the Governor had signed the fol-
lowing bills:
No 8, to Regulate the Examination Of
Jurors as to their Qualification or In
terest.
No. 6, to Encourage Diversified In
dustries.
No. T. Amending Sections 1858 and
1853 of the Revised laws relating to the
Duties of the Registrar of Conveyances.
The report of the Conference commit
tee on the bill respecting the minimum
pay for laborers on government work,
reused the opposition of a number Of
members from places other than Ho-
nolulu district. The committee re-
commended the passage of a bill maxi
ing the minimum pay 81 day except
i'm Honolulu district where the mini
mum shall be $3.50 a day. Member
after member from out of town at
tackled the report on the ground that
it was favoring Honolulu and at last
Long got an opportunity to say that
the bill did not prohibit other districts
from paying their road labOrers $3.50 or
more If they wanted to, it is simply to
made the minimum $3.50 in Honolulu.
The debate continued for considerably
over an hour without much addition to
the sum of human wisdom,
Kalawaia at last choked off debate
by moving the previous question. Ka-
lawaia is one Of the silent members of
the House but his was one of the wise
speeches of the morning.
On a vote to adopt the report a tie
resulted as follows
