ings of supervisors, was referred to

The bill providing that all employees
of the Territory, or subdivision there
of, shall be citizen of the United
States was considered, the Judiciary
committee reporting as follows:
"Section ! of the bill provides that
All officers, deputies, clerks, assistants,
interpreters, police, laborers and other
persons employed in the service of the
Government of the Territory of Ha-
waii, or in the service of any County
or Municipal subdivision of said Ter
ritory must be citizens of the United
States of America, and we recommend
that semicolon be placed after the
word America and the following
words added to the section, except
that in cases where it is not reason
ably practicable to obtain citizens for
such service, persons other than citi-
zens may be employed
"With this amendment we recon-
mend the passage of the bill"
The bill as amended passed second
reading.
Senator Makekau wished to strike
out interpreters and policemen and

From the judiciary committee Sen
ator Smith reported on Senate Bill No.
SO and House Bill No. 81, relating to
the payment of all fines and costs into
the county treasury as follows:
"Senate Bill 63 provides that all
fines and forfeitures of property i'm
posed as punishment in criminal cases,
all costs in such cases, and all costs
imposed in civil cases by any district
court in those cases in which no ap-
peals shall be taken, shall be paid in
to the county treasury; and House Bill
No. S4 provides that any money or
moneys collected by any district court
within the Territory as fines and costs,
are realizations for the county, and
the same shall be paid in and kept
in the county treasury for the use of
the county wherein such moneys shall
be collected.
"We recommend that both of these
bills be laid upon the table.
'We believe it better that the pub
lie revenues should be paid into the
territorial treasury and that the funds
for the maintenance of the counties
shall be certain per centum of all the
revenues collected from the respective
counties. If certain classes of reven-
ues are to be paid directly to the coun-
ties there will be disturbance of
the amounts which should be appor-
toned between the Territory and the
counties and will make fair adjust
ment more difficult"
The report was adopted passing the
bill on second reading.
Adjourned.
