quire that corporations and joint stock
companies should have corporate seals,
but We believe that If there is no such
expressed requirement every such cor
poration or joint stock company should
have one.
Sectionn of the bill recites the
sections of the statutes which must be
followed in order to entitle an instru-

With the amendments above sug-

The report was adopted.
The report on House Bill No. 104 was
tabled to be considered with the bill.
1t reads as follows:
House Bill No. 104 entitled AN Act
relating to foreclosure of mortgages,
amending Section 2161 of the Revised
Laws"
section 2161 provides that notice OF
intention of foreclosure of mortgage
under power of sale contained in. the
mortgage shall be published in the Ha-
waiian and English languages for a
period of three successive weeks, and
the amendment is that such publica-
ton shall be "once in each of three
successive weeks, the first publication
to be not less than twenty-one days
before the day of SALE"
We approve of the amendment, but
as only a portion of the section is set
forth in the bill, we recommend that
Section [ of the bill be amended so as
to read:
Section /. Section 2161 of the Re-
vised Laws is hereby amended to read
as follows:

affidavit after sale. When a power OF

tee in the Hawaiian and English Ian
guages once in each of three successive

less than twenty-one days before the

gagged property lies or in Honolulu and

Senator Smith reported on House
Bill Nc. 102 as follows: House Bill No.
1902, entitled AN Act relating to juries,
amending Sections 1879, 1880, 1882 and
17S2A Of the Revised Laws as amended
by Act "A OF the Laws of 1906
The sections referred to are under
the head of juries and trial by jury and
relate to the drawing of jurors for the
grand jury and trial jury. These Sec
tions were amended by Act "A of the
Laws of 1905, and the present bill again
amends the sections so as to remove
certain defects and better adapt the
provision of the law TO the desired end.
These amendments appear to the COM
mtttee to be proper and we favor them
but recommend an amendment to Sec
ton as hereinafter set forth.
The sections amended are Sections
1879, 1850. 1882 and 17S2A as amended by
Act "A of the Laws of 1905. The
amendments of 1905 set forth the
amended sections in full and in the
bill under consideration the amended
sections are set forth in full with the
exception of 1779 We believe that
the last paragraph should be inserted
so that the four sections as amended
will appear in full and thus avoid the
