GOVERNORS
BUSY TIME
lie Is Preparing Matter
for Information
OF Congress.

It's from early morn till dewy eve"
with Governor Carter's work these
days For his grinding toll the pres
ent session of Congress is the occasion
President Roosevelt in his message
having dedicated big gun to Hawaii
the Governor has gone into the ammu-
milton factory to rush forward a sup
ply of cartridges.
Il do not know whether L shall be
able to get away" the Governor said
had received from Admiral Goodrich
to accompany him, week from today,
in the cruiser Chicago for a trip to
Hilo and visit to the Volcano
"A good many letters have to be got
off, for which data must be prepared
Yes" the Governor assented, for the
information of Congress and promo
tion of legislation the Territory badly
needs.
One matter needing attention is that
of personal property in the custody of
the Territory. An opinion of the At
torney Generals Department holds that
boat is of no use to the Territory or
to the United States, and there are
old animals and road machinery to
, which the ruling applies.
There must be legislation on that
question. 1t involves a waste of prop
erty that might be sold to either party's
advantage, but at present is of no
benefit either to the United States
Government or TO the Territory. We
ought to get authority to sell any such
property.
Il must write to Delegate Kuhio and
give him data in aid of his measure
to secure an appropriation for payment
of the expenses of our sessions of the
Legislature He has asked for it. It
would be mighty good thing. The
Federal Government, | understand,
pays the legislative expenses of every
other Territory This is not so i'm
portant however, as other matters be-
fore us
With regard to the Governors busy
days, it may be mentioned that he was
rung up on business at 7:15 yesterday
morning. From that time until in
the afternoon he did not have a mo-
ment he could call his own. Even as
for luncheon he tasted none and it is
doubtful II he so much as took thought
to cinch up his waistcoat band for
reduction of the gnawing vacuum.
His sole relief from grind a the
executive desk was an excursion he
took with Supervisor Jack Lucas to
the outlet of the storm water drain
age system. This was to investigate
a dammfng of the outflow by the fill
ing-in of the marine park site at Ka-
kaako with harbor dredgings. The
matter has been brought to the atten-
tion of the Board of Supervisors by
petitions and Mr.. Lucas as chairman
of the road committee, solicited the
Governors influence to secure an ex-
tension of the system through the fill
ed-in tract by the Federal authori-
ties.
Governor Carter was not prepared to
give out his views on the matter yes
terday evening. but said he was going
to send a letter to the Board of Su
perVisors relative thereto.
All the time the Governor was at his
office, between morning and evening,
there were people in the outer room
awaiting their turns for interviews.
