AFTERNOON SESSION.
A communication from the Sectetary
notified the Senate that t. Governor
! had signed Senate Bill 6S.
The Secretary also returned the Lane
resolution providing that the Catholic
| Church be permitted to hold more than
! 1000 acres of land. The resolution
was returned that it might be read
three times for legal passage. 1t was
read for the second time.
| The House sent notification that it
| had overrIduen the Governor s veto on
the county bill. The communication
was not properly worded, however, and
was sent back for correction.
House Bill 176, the bill changing the
! form and manner of examining leper
suspects, was on Lane motion taken
up out of order for third reading. This
bill provides for a iazaretto at Kalihi,
| and provides for the appointment of
commission of examining doctors.
Dickey opposed the passage of the
bill on the ground that it entailed
needless expense, the United States be-
ing about to establish leper hospital.
There should be no leper hospital out
side Kalaupapa. Paris opposed the
bill on the same grounds, and McCand-
less opposed an amendment making the
law imperative IN the event of the
establishment of a hospital by the
United States government at Molokai.
The amendment carried on a tie vote.
The bill passed py the following vote:

deficit of $261,676.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1905-04-14

The Dickey bin then again came up
for consideration on second reading,
and Achi renewed his motion that af-
ter the taxes had been collected, the
county assessors should pay into the
Territorial treasury, in addition to the
30 per cent provided in the bill, the
following amounts: From Oahu, 1925
600; from Hawaii. 500, 900; from Maui,
$40 900; from Kauai, $4,000.
There was debate on this again, and
then Dowsett s amendment offered at
the morning session giving the Terri
tory 80 per cent and the counties 30
per cent of the taxes collected was
read with the Achi proviso for relm-
bursement added.
McCandless offered an amendment 70
give the Territory 90 per cent of the
tax receipts, in addition to the sums
named in the Achi Droviso.
Achi protested that this was plain
attempt to crush county government.
Paris wanted to know whether 80 per
cent would be enough to run the Terri
tOrial government after the first of
January.
1.-THE treasurer said that it would
be enough, according to his estimates
said Dowsett.
THAT IS an estimate said Bishop,
''not positive statement of fact.
The AchI proviso then passed, and
the Dowsett amendment.
Bishop offered a new section max
ing the sums payable to the Territorial
treasury bv the counties prior claim
against the counties. This was adopt
ed, and then the bill passed second
reading, neing amended to take effect
on July l, 1905. 1t will be given to
the Revision Committee for corEec-
tons, and read for the third time to-
morrow.

NOT FAVORED.

This did not meet with great favor,
apparently. Bishop said that the Achi
proposition would not remove the diff
Guilty at all. If word goes out from
this Senate chamber said Bishop,
that we have impaired the power of
the Territory to pay its warrants, there
would be an instant panic. It is mucn
better to let the counties drift along
as best they could until January /. -
The county Ohcers would not work
for nothing remarked Achi.
81 Think said Dickey, ''it would
be better to give the Territory 60 per
cent and the county 40 per cent of the
taxes.
Dowsett, being called upon by the
President, said he was puzzled about
give the Territory 90 per cent or even
10 per cent, as the thing had turned
out, 1t might nave eeen better to make
the County Act effective on January
/, also.
McCandless, who was member of
the accounts commission, explained
that the estimate of go per cent for
the Territory and 40 per cent to the
counties had figured only current run
ming expenses and not Indebtedness or
warrants.
''And that makes the thing worse
than ever said the President.
Paris moved reference of the bill
to a special congnittee, as he did not
want to act in the dark, but that was
not considered for the moment.
Achi spoke in favor of his motion
for the apportionment. and then Dick
ey and Dowsett both seconded the
amendment for reference to special
committee, to consider the matter and
report Immediately.

BRITISH CLAIMS.

A letter from the Governor inform

This was in answer to the Dowsett
resolution. The communication was re-

Hon. D. p. R. lsenberg, President of
the Senate, Legislature of the Ter
ritory of Hawaii
Sir: In reply to the communication
from the Senate of 9th inst, transmit
ted by the clerk, enclosing a duly GER
tilted copy of the Senate Resolution
No. 40 respecting claims presented by
the British government on behalf of
its subjects, L beg to inform you that
this is a matter that was brought to
the attention of the Legislature in
1908, by Governor Dole, and I enclose
a copy of the remarks made in his
message of February Is, 1908. No ac-
ton, however, has been taken by the
Legislature.
The matter was referred to when I
was last at the State Department and
my response was that the Territory
of Hawaii could not possibly object
to any action or legislation on the
subject that might originate with the
Federal authorities.

Extract from Governor Dole's Message
to the Legislature, February
10, 1908.

"The. British government is still
pressing for payment of the claims of
several of it's citizens based upon their
treatment by the Republic of Hawaii
under martial law in 1895. Correspond
ence in this matter is with the Secre-
tary of State, who has expressed a
desire that the government of the Ter
ritory should create a commission to
finally determine these questions.
These claims were first presented
by the British government against the
Republic of Hawaii which, recogniz-
ing the justice of one of these claims
that of a person who had been sub
jected to Improper treatment as a wit
ness, paid it, but refused all of the
rest Negotiations for their reference
to arbitration were broken off by the
annexation of the hawaiian Islands
to the United States
There are several other claims by
citizens of other powers whose atti-
tude in relation thereto is similar to
that of the British government.
81 recommend that legislation be
enacted by the Legislature providing
for a commission of three persons who
shall have authority to hear and deter
mine all political claims of citizens
of foreign powers arising under the
status of martial law in the year 1895,
and who shall accept as evidence the
affdavits already fled in such cases.
commission to be final and obligatory
on the parties.
81 further recommend that appro-
priations for the pay and expenses of
such commission be placed in the
nrOnpr hills -

THE SENATE.

The Senate yesterday took up and
passed on second reading Sen
ate Bill No. 9S, which is the
Dickey bill apportioning the taxes to
the counties under the County Act, and
in its original form gave the Territory
sixty and the counties forty per cent
of the revenues collected.
Dowsett moved to amend so that
county assessors must pay TO the Ter
ritorial treasurer 80 per cent of all
taxes collected under any tax law in
any county, less the expense of collect
ing the same, the remaining so per
cent to be paid to the county treasurer.
The motion precipitated an extend
ed discussion. At the conclusion CT
this, however, the DOwsett amendment
carried on show of hands, nine to
four And then the Senate got tangled
up on the proposition as to when the
act should go into effect. Hewitt NOV
ed to make the act effective July LIST,
and the difficulty arose as to what dis
position should be made of the reve-
nues of the current year. Bishop, Dick
ey and Paris contended that if this
money was taken away from the Ter
ritory, which was now issuing war
rants against the fund, there would
arise a serious menace to the credit of
the Territory.
President Isenberg said that if half
the revenues OF the current year were
to go to the Territory. the banks
should be Immediately notified, be-
cause after that provision became
known the banks would instantly stop
cashing Territorial warrants.
''The proper thing said Bishop, !
is to make this bill effective on Jan |
uary 1, 1906, and give the counties |
share of next year taxes. The credit |
of the Territory must be preserved
To settle the difficulty, Achi moved |
that the counties pay to the Territory, |
in addition to 80 per cent of all taxes
collected in 1905, the following sums:
Oahu, $40 900; Hawaii, 100000; Maui,
100000, and Kauai, $4,000.
