tempt on the part Of the Federal Gov
eminent To usury control of the public
schools of the States. In some States
the right Of a State to control Its pub
lie schools may be regarded as much
more important than the exclusion OF
Japanese laborers. We In California
are willing to waive the smaller point
for the sake of gaining the larger one,
but other States may not see II In that
light.
ION the other hand, II the Govern.
ment does not insert In the treaty u
provision which insures to Japan the
right to send Japanese children 10
American public schools 1t Is very
doubtful that japan would agree to It,
I mean to say that japan Is somewhat
suspicious on this point and will in-
sist ON some guarantee from the United
States Government that no discrimina-
ton shall be practIced against Japan
ese in this country. The difficulty OF
making such a guarantee without In
ringing upon the rights Of the States
is a perplexins one,
IF an exclusion treaty Is submitted
to the Senate we propose to work foi
its ratification with all our might, We
are willing to waive our right To eX'
clude Japanese from the public schools
and we shall ask other States to do the
same. We believe a majority OF tn,
Senators will agree that this consti'
tutional point can be kept In the back
ground for the sake Of removing friG

A(RI(UL1URALCOL(E(E
ADMINISTRATION MEASURE
RATHER THAN PARTY BILL

The proper course of action to be
taken in connection with the plat
form declaration of the Republican
party on Il College of Agriculture
and Mechanic Arts was brought up
by w. o. Smith at the meeting of the
committee held in Republican head
quarters last evening.
Mr.. Smith stated that he had gone
over the report of the Department OF
Public Instruction prepared by Mr..
Harrington. He was impressed with
the fact that the Agricultural Col
lege was not a school In any sense of
the word, but college. an institu-
ton OF advanced learning He be-
lieved In the measure but thought the
bill preparing the way for the college
should be an Administration rather
than II purely party measure.
There were matters OF general ed
ucational policy involved and as this
also included matters OF expense he
thought that from every standpoint
1t would be better to leave the gen.
eral policy in the hands of the Gov
ernor. II the Governor did not see
III to act, the members of the Legis-
lature could do as they saw fit.
Mr.. Smiths view met with the APP
proval of those present at the meet
Ing and 1t was proposed that the
legislative subcommittee should
meet with the Governor and go oyer
the whole subject. Here was an in
stitution that would give the young
students of Hawaii many and event
ually all the advantages of an ad-
vanced college OF the mainland. II
would be grand thing for the Ter
ritory and should be fostered In ev-
cry way possible,
Mr.. Harrington reported that he
had finally found law passed by
Congress which furnished Il prece-
dent for the establishment of these
colleges in Territory. The law was
in connection with the college endow-
ed for the Territory OF New Mexico
and contained In Volume 6 OF the
United States Statutes.

the Territory to transfer the titles to
the water works to the Counties All
IL could do would be to turn over to
the Counties the right to use the sys-
tens, the control to remain with the
Superintendent of Public Works,
who would have general supervision
and to whom would have to be- refer
red any large extensions or other i'm
provements.
Smith suggested that the vote on
taking over the water works ought
to be restricted to the taxpayers, the
ones who are most vitality affected.
Ballentyne was inclined to throw
cold water on the entire scheme, and
spoke several times In opposition to
II.
RoGertson's Conclusion
Chairman Robertson said: THE

to get Congress to convey back To tho
Territory the title to the publ,

Republican Organization Adopts
Scheme For Primary Law
And Other Laws

The figures of Assistant Superin-
tendent of Public Works Rowland,
which were published In the Bulletin
last night, showing deficit of &c.,
900, when properly analysed. fail to
show any such legitimate deficit. = IN
fact, they show that. while there may
not be any gain, there is practically
no loss In the operation of the Homo
lulu water works for the ~ months
ending June 30. 1906.
This fact was brought out at the
meeting of the Executive COMMITTEES
IF the Republican Central Committee
with members of the Legislature last
night.
Rallentyne's Analysis

subcommittee on legislation, had

sideration at the meeting. lie stat

there was no necessity for reading
them. Mr.. Harrington asked him to

cluded In the annual costs. had no

of permanent improvements. This
brought the supposed deficit down Ia
within u thousand dollars of the an.
nual receipts. II is possible that
there are other items charged In the
annual costs which might he simi
larry eliminated.
