IN The SENATE
Continued from Page One).

Bill No. SO, entitled AN Act making
Additional Appropriations for the De-
partmental use of the Territory of Ha-
wall" begs to report as follows:
Your Committee recommends the
passage of the bill with the following
amendments:
Under the head of Department of
Public Works amend the item reading
Completion Extension Wailuku Build
ing Lease to County from February l,
1907 $1,000" to read as follows:
Completion of Wailuku Jail and Fire
Department Building, and refunding
the County for amounts expended by
it in construction of such building, 81
O0O."
Under the head of Department of
Education amend the item reading
Unpaid Rents and Incidentals s6.6SO,"
to read Unpaid Rents ana Incidentals,
S., 19O"
In explanation of the above your
Committee would state that it has been
brought to its attention that the Coun-
ty of Maui has already expended and is
still spending its own funds toward
the completion of the building known
as the Waikiki Jail and Fire Depart
ment, and Independent of any possible
existing arrangement made between
the superintendent of Public Works
and the Board of Supervisors of the
County of Maui, it is your Comcittee's
opinion that the County should be re-
imbursed for such amounts thus ex-
pended.
The reduction of the item of 5000 to
$3.50 under the head of Board of Edu-
cation is occasioned by the striking out
of the item inserted by the Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction for the
purchase of an automobile. Your Com
mittee is of the opinion that it is not
advisable that such an item should be
inserted in a bill which, as recommend
ed in the message of the Goevrnor. is
presented to meet the estimated re-
uqirements of the several departments
of the Government to the end Of the
present biennial period Your Commit
tee does not consider an automobile
one of these requirements.
From the same Committee Senator
Dowsett reported favoring the bill fix
ing the wage of laborers as follows:
Your Committee on Ways and Means
to which was referred Senate BIll NO.
p, entitled AN Act to Designate the
Pay of aLborers engaged in Construct
ing or Repairing Rods, Bridges or
Streets, Water Works or other works
for the Territory of Hawaii, or for any
political subdivision thereof" begs TO
report as follows:
While not DESTROYS of hampering the
economical administration of the work
of the Counties, your Committee feels
that there is merit I'm the provisions of
this biz the extent that If a judicious
selection Of labor is made, and faithful
and efficient service is rendered in car
rying on the public works in the sew
eral Counties, the wage rate as fixed
in the bill is not excessive.
When the bill was called Senator
Smith opposed. In fixing the hours for
labor the matter was different, but to
say that all kinds Of labor, good and
bad, was wrong He understood the
objections that would be raised in his
opposing the bill, but he could not help
that, he was doing what he believed
is right

IDERUNA is a universally recognized

It will relieve catarrh in its most OBJ

Peruna will bring relief.
Peruna is not a local remedy, but an

Catarrh is a difficult disease to cure
and many doctors dislike to attempt to
treat it at all.
AS soon as the people become ac-

The editor of the COURIER

The editor Of the COURIER
realized on his judgment for
S4OO against J. K. and j. w.
Robertson last Friday, the
judgment growing out of the
COURIER Signal deal January
81, 1905. 1t cost us S4OO to get
the S4OO from the Robertsons for
breach of their contract, and
it also cost them a considerable
sum to defend the suit and pay
costs. How much better it
would have been for all parties
concerned had the Robertsons
lived up to the terms of the con-
tract and not have undertaken
to hold us up for S40O without
giving US any value received for
our money. Honesty still con-
tinues to be the best policy, not
only because it is rig ht morally,
but, in the end, it is also more
profitable financially.

Baseball.

The Marceline baseball team

and INDUCED in a game with our
boys for the purpose, it is pre-

while on their way to Salisbury
for a couple of rounds with the
Salisbury Champions, one Sat-
urday and one Sunday. At Key
tesville the Marcelin neites got
more "practice" than they want
ed as our boys carried them
down the line to defeat by
a score of Z to 10. Harvey of
Armstrong did the pitching for
Keytesville and Chas. Schell, ,Jr.,
acted as backstop.
In the two games at Salisbury,
Marceline was victorious Satur.

The farmers generally in this
section are complaining that the
wheat will be nothing like as
abundant crop in this county
as was promised in March.
It did not stool out as it should
have done, and other causes
combined have reduced the
yield, from present indications,
to perhaps as much as one half
and not over two. thirds of a
crop at best. The farmers,
however, have the consolation
that prospects are good for
wheat TO reach the 81 mark and
and probably more than ST a
bushel, owing to the shortage
of that cereal in Oklahoma and
parts of Kansas and the badly
damaged condition of spring
wheat in the north.
