ment would work so that salaries were
paid by the Territory to all hereafter.
He brought this up so that the other
counties would learn how they had
been doing what was unnecessary.
Kaleiopu refuted the statement OF
Kaluna that 10000 persons paid no
taxes in Honolulu. The auditors re-
port showed that $40, 2S5 had been paid
in poll tax here. On Maui, with all its
plantations, only S7459 had been paid in
poll tax. Oahu is paying 81, 467, 7O2. 40
in taxes and Maui only $685.
The member from Maui was on his
feet during part of Kaleiopu's address
and both talked at once for a while.
Kaleiopu contrasted Oahu and Maui
so far as taxes go, Mauis share be-
ing only a quarter that of Oahu. He
did not want to twit the member from
Maui but he would not stand for any
remarks about Honolulans lodging
their taxes.

Afternoon Session.

House Bill 120 was returned from the
Senate, approved. Another communi-
cation advised the House of the &C
ceptance of the report of the special
joint committee on Senate Bill 30 by
the Senate.
A petition was received from Pepee-
keo, Hilo, from fifteen signatories as
ISOLATED together for land settlement
purposes, asking for the opening up
for settlement purposes of the gov
eminent land at Kulaimano. The
matter was referred to the Public
Land committee.
After the House had been ten min
utes in session Pail offered his daily
motion to adjourn. Withdrawing it.,
however, when Coney asked for the
floor to present a report for the Health
and Police committee recommending
tabling of a request from the Assoc
ciated Charities for an appropriation
of S2400 a year for running expenses,
there being no bill before the House
in which the item could be placed Rice
explained that the request had reached
him too late and had been presented
only through courtesy. The report
was adopted.
An Act providing $4,000 to finish the
Kalihiwaena school was introduced by
Kalana.
WALLACE AGAIN.
A joint resolution was presented by
Moanauli asking that J. Lor Wallach
may be permitted by the Board Of
Health to engage in the treatment of
lepers at the Kalihi Receiving Station,
according to the provisions of Section
1927 of the Revised Laws of Hawaii,
the Board of Health being humbly re-
quested to give Wallach the permis-
sion. The resolution further resolved
that some patients at Kalihi be given
under Wallach's control for six
months, the Board Of Health TO pay
their expenses.
Coney asked that the resolution be
tabled at once, but Moanauli asked
for a consideration of the matter on
it's merits. The request had more
merit in it than some members
thought. Here is a man willing to
treat lepers successfully, who has in
the past treated lepers successfully.
The resolution requests that the law
be lived up to, insomuch as the man has
been denied permission to practise his
skill as he desires. 1t is right to take
the matter up and deal with it prop
erly.
The House is sitting in the interest
of the public and this resolution IL
surely in their interest as dealing with
the health of the people
Coney said the resolution would be
the greatest imposition on the public
This man, calling himself Doctor
Wallach wants to practise on the un-
fortunate lepers. If there was any

their pay raised. He was willing to
vote for the raise of territorial salaries
if the pay of the county officials be
raised If one is swallowed the other
should be.
IF county salaries are to be cut
will have an axe out for the territorial
salaries and will make the pay of the
heads of departments 5000 month! 1
move the bill pass as read" said Ka-
leiopu in conclusion.
Sheldon asked for a postponement of
the bill until Friday next to give the
members time for consideration.
KaIeo reminded the House that he
had favored the pruning of the items
when in the Committee Of the Whole,
but the members acted hastily in pass
ing the items, too hastily for one man
to stem the tide. He agreed with the
member requesting an adjournment.
CONEY FEELS GROWN UP.
Coney objected to the impression
which seemed to prevail that he and
the other members were in leading
strings He was big enough to take
care of himself and had known what
he did when he brought in the bill.
Why did not the Oahu members de-
eide what they want IN the way of
fixing Oahu's salaries and give the
House less hot air about it. But oahu
members knew nothing about Kauai
and had no business butting in.
Rice moved that Rawlins be allowed
to speak on the postponement, Sheldon
amending it by asking that he be the
last.
THE GOVERNORS HOOKS.
Rawins stated that the enthusiasm
of the occasion had swept the House
off its feet. Oahu had been cut out of
$50 900 by the income YAK amendment
which the Oahu members had unani-
mously agreed to, and this will partly
be made up by the fines from police
courts. Oahu is in bad position now.
Kauai is the richest island of them
all. having more money than II needs
Maui is benefited by the income tax
amendment, but Oahu loses. Oahu
cannot afford to raise taxes all around
but must go carefully. He did not
believe in sending out a bill for the
Senate to get it's hooks into or the
hooks of the Governor either a bill
ought to leave the House properly or
not at all. He asked for delay until
Thursday.

Nor was the homicide excusable
or justihable either at common law
or under the New York statute, for,
TO be excusable. it must have been
committed by accident in doing a
lawful defense Of Thaw or his wife,

with respect to the defense of in
sanity, II Thaw was insane when he
killed White, he not only cannot be
punished, but he was guilty of no
crime, and this is true although he
may have been sane before he COM
mitted the act and may be sane now.

or not he was insane Is OF course
question OF fact which must be de-
termined by the jury from the eyi-
dence; but there are certain tests es-
tablished by law in this state, as else
where, for determination OF the ques-
ton whether. II he was to some ex-
tent insane. his sanity was sufficient
TO exempt him from responsibility.
"In the first place II IL everywhere

press statutory provision, that II
Thaw. at the time he killed White,
was so insane that he did not know
the nature and quality of his act. or

must be acquitted. N. Y. Pen. Code,

"1n the second place, IL Is equally
well settled that mere moral or emo
tional insanity, or frenzy produced
by anger, jealousy, or other like pas
sion. Is not such insanity as will ex-
empt from responsibility, where the
person knew the nature and quality
