GOVERNOR
SOUNDS NOTE
OE WARNING
VETOING THE NEW MAUSOLEUM
BILL HE POINTS OUT THAT AP-
PREPARATIONS ALREADY EX-
CEED INCOME.

Governor Garter sounded a warning
this morning Of the financial condition
Of the Territory. 1t came in the fol-
lowing message vctoing Senate bill No.
1O6 appropriating $4,000 for the creation
of a masoleum for the protection of
the remains Of the Hawaiian rulers and
chiefs.
This bin carries an appropriation
of $4,000. have already shown, in my
message relative to House bill Number
1863, that the various appropriations
which have already passed both Houses
exceed the estimated income by S217.-
$3.50. And while it is stin possible
for the conference committee to strike
out sufficient items to keep the appro-
priations within the revenues, yet to
accomplish this will require the sacri-
ficing Of many items of more immediate
Importance than that provided for in
this bill. Therefore, I am not willing
to further embarrass the situation by
the approval of this expenditure"
passed despite the veto of the governor.
He wanted to take up the consideration
of the matter at once unless there was
some reason for postponing action tenn
porarily. The motion prevailed and
Smith then spoke in favor of the pas
sage of the measure.
ChillingwOrth said that the motive in
caring for these remains was a lauda-
Of the country were not in condition to
admit of the appropriation of $40. 1000
being made. He felt that the appro-
priation could be postponed until a
time when the finances were in better
schape. He would favor sustaining
the governors veto.
Replying Smith said that this country
owed it's greatest financial prosperity
to King Kalakaua who had succeeded
in getting the reciprocity treaty where
distinguished people had failed. He
felt that so far as the future was con-
cerned the financial condition of the
IIleIl
than it was now. He said that the
present was the time for the enactment
of the appropriation.
Bishop said that the present mauso-
leum had been adequately repaired and
was he knew in first class condition.
The matter could well be deferred un-
til a later session of the Legislature He
predicted that if the present appropr1a-
tion were made it would result in pri-
Vate parties who had already attended
to having the remains of some of the
rulers taken to other places asking for
financial relief.
The governors veto was then over
rided by the following vote:

den Woods, Makekau, Hewitt, Smith.
