ORDER OF THE DAY.

There was dearth of reports, COM
munications and notices of intention
and no unfinished business before the
House, allowing the members to go at
once into action on House Bill 147.
This bill is duplication of one al
ready tabled in the Senate, relating to
exemptions from taxation for income,
increasing the amount exempted from
$1,000 to $1,000 The measure turned
down by the Senate was limited to
$500. This is the one bill upon which
the House is determined whole and
if the Senate repeats the knifing act
there will be wigs on the green.
In order to rush it the matter had
been made the special order of the
day and the rules We're suspended to
allow the third reading without having
the bill printed. There was no debate,
the speaker himself doing what little
talking was necessary to explain the
bill. The vote showed no opposition
and it is now up to the Senate.
POLICE POWER FOR SUPERVISORS.
House Bill SO, which confers on the
County Supervisors the power to make
and enforce police and sanitary regu
lations within their respective coun-
ties. not conflicting with the general
law. was passed for the third time.
The bill providing for the establish
ing of a hospital at Lahaina and for
its support was read for the third time
and passed. This is House Bill 115.
ONE JOB AT A TIME.
House Bill 123, which carried through
the last stage, prohibits any person
from holding more than one govern
ment office, either elective or ap-
pointiye. at one time and forbids any
county auditor issuing warrants for pay
mcnt of salaries for such offices,

HOUSE AND
PROMOTION
Maui Cuts Down Fund
for Getting the
Tourists.
HoUsE-TwENTY-sEcoND DAY.


Yesterdays session of the House was
marked by unanimity of opinion on
the necessity of pushing through bill
to reenact the increased exemption of
incomes from taxation and get the
matter up to the Senate. The Senate
matter and the House was so anxious
to give them a chance to retrieve them
selves that they pushed the bill through
all stages without waiting to have it
printed. The joke so far is on the
Senate, as the House has taken ad-
vantage of the state of affairs to boost
the exempted annual income from $500,
as in the first bill, to $1,000.
The afternoon session was differently
marked, the members snarling among
themselves over the consideration of
the items in the appropriation bill. Rice,
of Kauai, led the attack of the other
islanders against many of the Oahu
items and knocked out several of them.
Among these was $4,000 of the
amount set down for the Promotion
Committee, leaving $4,000 out of the
$4,000 wanted. The members from
the other districts considered in some
inscrutable way that this was vic
tory for them, but more short-sighted
bit of work has probably never before
been done in any Hawaiian legisla-
ture Rice gave no reason whatever
for the cut, making his motion and re-
lying on bull-headed following to
help him carry out his folly.

Of RENEWED LIFE
OLD LONE MOUNTAIN DISTRICT
TAKES ON MUCH
ACTIVITY.

The old Lone Mountain district Is
showing signs of renewed life and
activity, and not only that, ore is
showing up in larger quantities and
better values. The Unknown district,
spoken of by Mr.. Lueey, where as
says ran as high as $455, is in Lone
Mountain, and SO is the property Of
the Nevada Silver Lead Mining Com
pany.
Charles Keilhofer, superintendent
of the latter company, was i'm from
there yesterday. and he says that the
men are just starting to sink on the
ore, which increases in width and
value as it goes down.
I'VE are on the same side of the
mountain as is the Nevada Alpine.
which has been paying dividends for
years. We are seven miles from the
railroad. The Nevada Alpine lies to
the north, the Interstate to the west
and the Paymaster to the east, and
the property is seven miles from Sill

The contact Is dolomite and
quartzite, the same as the famous

feet, and is five feet wide, while the

says taken from the bottom of the
shaft average 81 per cent in lead, 2h
per cent in copper, and $14 in silver.
A picked sample went II per cent in
lead and $4O.76 in silver, with a
trace Of copper, Several other sam
pies averaged from $50 to $40.
THE ledge is exposed on the sur
face for two miles, the outcroppings
in some places extending twelve feet
above the surface. We have another
ledge which parallels this, forty feet
from 1t, which is from thirty to sixty
feet wide. Where We have sunk for
seven feet, assays at the bottom go
81 in silver, az per cen lead and 8
per cent in copper. One sample from
the shaft went II is per cent cop
per, $11 in silver and 2 per cent in

the mountain below the ledge which
went as high as $500. Goldfeld par
