PLANTS ARE
A DANGER
When Carried From
One Island to
Another.

The Board of Agriculture held n
meeting yesterday afternoon at the
Nursery headquarters on King street,
and attended to considerable routine
work, beside attending to some i'm
portant matters connected with the en-
genealogical and forestry departments.
The draft of a resolution to regulate
the sending of trees. plants. cuttings
to Honolulu from other islands, or vice
versa, was presented by Alexander
'Craw. AS to planting cane, ETC., Mr..
Giffard stated that most of the plan
tation managers have the same
brought through Honolulu. Mr..
Thurston thought that cane should be
included in the bill, as cane afflicted
with fungus diseases was being ship
ped from one district to another. Mr..
'Giffard said it was suicide for such
cane to be shipped from one place to
another.
Mr.. Thurston suggested that the
matter be brought to the attention Of
the Planters Association as 1t was
matter affecting the planters direct.
The suggestion was embodied in a mo-
ton and adopted. The resolution Of
Mr.. Craw was accepted and laid be-
fore the committee on Rules and
Regulations
Mr.. Giffard said the Olinda beetle
from Maui was quite prevalent in Ca
hu and especially on Tantalus Mr..
Thurston said it was probably brought
here largely in leis and roses. This
WAS another reason why more drastic
measures should be adopted for pre-
venting inter-island communication of
insects.
Mr.. Giffard spoke of the arrival of
Prof Koebele from Australia and Fiji.
He said Prof. Koebele was in better
health.
Mr.. Thurston said that for some time
Massachusetts had desired to obtain
Prof. Koebeles services for the sup
,pre ssion of moth which has done
millions of dollars worth of dam
age to trees and vegetation, but Prof.
Koebee had decided to remain with
the Territory of Hawaii.
A letter relative to the publication
of bulletins by the department at in
tervals was read. 1t was a suggestion
made to follow the plan used by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. Each bulletin should be number
ed, and all publications should be
printed uniformly. The Board adopt

REvIvING OLD KAKAAKo.

When, on Lane Is motion, the commit
tees report on the original third sec
tion was adopted, Dickey moved that
the bill be laid on the table. He said
the passage of that section meant the
establishing of new leper hospital.
McCandless said there was a leper
hospital at Kalihi already.
Not to keen people there for
years." Paris remarked.
McCandless, on the motion to table
the bill having BEEN defeal.,. to 6,
moved to reconsider the section and,
that being carried, moved to make the
term of detention at the kalihi hospital
not more than one year.
Dowsett moved in amendment three
months.
Paris asked what was the use of hav-
ing Molokai if they were going to have
another leper settlement Mt Kalihi.
They might as well have all the peo-
pie from Moiokai brought down here.
The proposition, if adopted, would do
more to injure Hawaii than anything
else.
Dowsett's amendment was lost, 7
to 6.
The period was made one year and
other amendments carried, with which
the bill Dassed second reaalng.

BUTTING IN.

Hewitt interrupted Dickey in argu.
ing for an amendment to the second
section with a motion to take up the
liquor bill, but was ruled out of order.
Dickey's amendment to make the
number of examining commissioners
five instead of three carried, only
three votes being against il.
Dickey, after general discussion by
Paris, Bishop and Dowsett, moved to
strike out the third section, contain
ing the condition, capable of spread
ing the disease as one to be found
by the commissioners. Carried.
Paris had the second section recon-
sidered, as it involved the appointment
by the Governor of an examining com
mission for every case. The defect was
repaired.

have ten rooms or more.
The first part of the amendment
carried and the second part was chang
ed to five rooms.
Bishop then moved new amendment
providing specifically for licenses to
restaurant keepers, with restriction to
the furnishing of liquor only with
meals, at a fee of $3.50.
Dowsett objected that they might as
well reduce the saloon license to $3.50,
as the proposal merely turned restaur-
ants into barrooms.
Bishop explained that the proposal
was intended for the relief of the
travelling public, as people complained
they could not get glass of beer with
their meals at restaurants.
Paris said all restaurant keeper
needed was one of the 500 licenses
to sell by the bottle.
Achi moved to strike ont the limita-
ton of licenses for the different is
lands which the amendment contained,
and Dickey objected to the hard labor
penalty making violation of the sub
division an infamous offensc.
The amendment itself, however, was
voted down, 8 to 4.

SALOON LICENSE.

Achi moved to make the retail liq-
uor license $500 year for Hilo, Wal.
luku and Honolulu, and $3.50 for other
towns.
Bishop opposed the amendment.
McCandless did likewise, showing
that the bill made reduction from
$1,000 to $500 for saloon licenses.
Achi argued that nobody could run
a saloon in Koolaupoko and pay $40 a
week in license. The same thing APP
piled to Kona, Lahaina and Hama, and
while liquor was bound to be sold Mt
those places the treasury would re-
ceive no revenue thererrom
Several members informed the mover
that there was special provision for
small towns elsewhere in the bill. The
amendment was lost, 8 to 2.
BoTTLER'S LICENSE.
The section providing fee of 800
year for selling unbroken packages
of less than five gallons passed.
Hayselden moved new provision for
a license at 5000 a year to hotels and
restaurants, to sell liquors only to bona
fide guests.
Bishop moved an amendment to max
it $3.50. Carried.

The mover and seconder had stated
that there was no occasion for secrecy,
Dickey saying the reasons for rejecting
certain Appointments were not in any
wise personal.
LEPRoSY BILL.
The second reading of Senate Bill 6s
was called, with it to be considered
House Bill 176.
Dickey moved to strike out all the
sections of the House Bill after the en-
acting cause and that the sections of
the Senate Bill be considered instead.
Achi defended the house Bill. All
along he had heard the cry Ono
money, no money" land here was a
bill to reduce the number of medical
examiners from FIVE to three, which
would save $50 for every examination
of suspects at Kalihi.
Dickey argued that money should not
count in such matter, showing from
the official report that but 16 persons
were examined in SIX months. Call il
90 and there would be only eighty in
the biennial period. What should saw
ing of $500 a year amount to against
the protection of these Islands from
the spread of leprosy.
! After Paris and Dickey had further
argued against the House proposal Achi
related some cases many years old OF
mistakes that were made in committals
of persons to the Molokai Settlement
Paris replied that Achi showed he
had no use for the examinations and
decisions of any number of doctors.
Achi' IS motion to Give the House Bill
precedence of consideration was voted
down.
The first section of the bill passed il
accordance with the majority report OF
the special committee.

Bishop, to 60 on record as he said,
moved to amend the distillery license
fee from So to $500.
Paris seconded, asking why should
they throw away revenue for Is years.
He argued that the enterprise would
be rather easy thing to start and
anybody going into it would know
what he was doing He would be in ia
vor of taxing the product so much a
gallon. The United States tax, he was
informed, was $l.25 gallon.
Achi asked If the previous speaker
did not know that the distiller must,
under the Federal law, own real es
tate.
"What does that amount tof' Paris
rejoined An acre or so of land for the
building site would comply with the
law"
Woods said the Territory would get
revenue from taxes on the land used in
cultivating the Ii root for the distil
lery.
Paris replied that it was big estate,
like the Bishop estate which would bt
principally benefited.
Dickey said the license in the orig
inal bill was $lUvO, which the House
changed to SIS. The law now allowed
distilling for a license fee of $3.50. He
moved to tax the product ST. a gallon
81 would amend to % cents gal
Ion, - Paris moved
Dowsett said distillery could moi
be started without an expenditure OF
several thousand dollars. 1t would be
all right to look after revenue after the
thing was started. Why not amend the
bill by making the period five instead
of fifteen years and leave the fee al
$5f
Paris replied that for export pur
poses five years might be necessary
but people here who drank would moi
wait until the liquor got ripe.
Recess from IL to 1880 was taken.

AFTERNOON SESSION.

McCandless, on resumption of the
debate on the liquor bill, supported the
So license fee. but objected to n per
gallon tax. One of his pleas was the
new source of employment distilling
industry would afford. L.
Paris accented an amendment of 10
cents gallon tax, which was carried.
Dowsett accepted an amendment to
make the period of license ten years,
which was carried, but reconsidered on
motion of McCandless-w who did not
know the motion had been put and
then it was lost. Fifteen years car
ried
Achi had an amendment carried that
the 10 cents gallon fee be paid
monthly.
