HOW TO SELL MILK.

After this, consideration OF the LII
cense Bill was resumed. The section
relative to milk license was referred
to the Public Lands Committee.
Those sections relating to mercan-
tile licenses were referred to the Ways
and Means Committee, to give the
mercantile community a chance TO be
heard.
The section with reference to the
sale of drugs was amended so as to
strike out the Imprisonment clause
from the penalty.
"It seems to me,' said Dowsett,
speaking upon the proposition to Ii
cense shows, "that the longer we work
with this bill, the worse it gets. L
move that the whole thing be sent to
the Judiciary Committee to be straight
ened OUT
The motion was lost, and the Senate
went on with its labor.
On his motion to strike out the sal
mon license, Bishop arose to question
of privilege to state that, notwith-
standing the fact that as member
of the Ways and Means Committee, he
had signed a report favoring a license
to dealers in salmon, Senator had a
right to change his mind. The motion
u
carried.
Then Aehi moved to strike out the
license to sell tobacco, cigars and
cigarettes. He made plea in favor of
his motion, and Kalama moved the sal
mon section. This carried and the sec
ton passed, with the amendment that
persons holding merchandise license
should be exempt from the salmon tax.
oh ~ e @nh
ment after that.
In the hackmen' g license section, the
old fight against Japanese hackmen
all hackmen should be able to read
and write English or Hawaiian. The
provision was stricken out.
The sections licensing pawnbrokers
and liquor dealers were stricken from
the bill. So was the section licensing
livery stables. Ana then consideration
of the whole bill was deferred to await
the report of the committees to which
various sections had been referred.
VETO MESSAGE.
just before adjournment, the follow
ing message was received from the
Governor:
To the Legislature of the Territory of
Hawaii
Herewith, I return Senate Bill No.
s, entitled can Act to Amend Section
1915 Of the Revised Laws Of Hawaii"
which l am unable to approve.
The bill attempts to give any Dis
trict Magistrate the power, when JUS
tice may require, to stay an execution.
At present this authority is restricted
to Judges of Courts or record.
There has been a question hereto
fore as to whether an execution issued
by District Magistrate could DE stay
ed by a Judge of a Court of Record,
and it may be advisable to have this
power lodged in the Circuit Judges, so
far as their own respective circuits are
concerned. But the proposed bill car
ries no such limitations. However, it
is impossible to say whether this
amendment means that the Circuit
Judges shall have power over executions
issued by themselves, and District
Magistrates power over executions is
sued from the District Courts, or
whether each shall have power over the
executions issued by the other.
In it's present form, therefore, it
would give District Magistrates power
to stay an execution, not only of the
Circuit Court, but even one issued by
the Supreme Court, and would, there
fore, create the widest confusion.

Governor.
