recommended q reduction Of the tariff

removals from non-pOlitical office were
less sweeping than those since Pres

sharp contest with the Senate over sus-
pensions and nominations; and devoted
his 1857 message entirely to the exist
ing tariff, denouncing il as vicious and
unnecessary, and demanding the
abolition of duties on raw materials
When reelected in 1892, he took office
in 1898 in the midst of threatening cur

auguraI speech declared that so far
as the executive branch of the govern

withheld when their exercise is deemed
necessary to maintain our national
credit or avert financial disaster" Ac-

on motion Of Carter. 1t was de-
cided that until conditions are better
I in California the board establish a
quarantine Of Jwenty-one days on all
live stock imported from that state.
same 70 take effect Immediately after
The date Of shipment, and 10 apply IA
all ports OF entry: and that such i'm
portation be confined TO those ports
which possess the necessary convent
enCes FOR quarantine.
The action Of the board was taken
On account OF the prevalence Of CLAN
derS in California Notwithstanding
the great precautions which have been
taken. cases Of the disease have crept
in here and the danger 10 local live
stock arising from the unsatisfactory
state Of affairs in California is very
great and calls for radical action on
the part Of the local authorities.
Georse r. Carter expressed himself
as in favor OF going TO even greater
extremes and prohibiting the importa-
ton Of live stock from California al
Jogsthsr. One State could quarantine
against another without violating any
interstate law. He thought that z
risk would be run even by driving
stock through town 10 the place OF
quarantine.
The effect Of the motion viii be the
speedy establishment OF quarantine
stations in Hilo and Kahului The
expense Of quarantine will have 10 be
borne by the importers.
Carter spoke Of the apparent indif-
ference Of the infected State TO the
serious situation which confronted il
and said that through il local live
stock interests were being jeopardized.
Self-proJection was the first law Of
nature. Unfortunately. the greater
part Of stock brought here passed
through California, and this was the
principal reason Of his modified mo- |
ton
II was further moved that q COM 4
munication outlining the action of the I
board in the matter be forwarded 10 .
Governor Frsar, with the request that
he forward same TO the Governor Of I
California.
The good work OF Brother Matthias
Newell Of Hilo. along the line OF in
specJion and quarantine. was warmly
commended. and il was decided TO
leave the matter of a more adequate
recognition OF his services TO the f.
nance committee.
On the motion Of Isenberg it was
decided that in future the board meet
On the first and third Wednesdays Of

ion Of business and 10 enable the
members Of the board 10 arrange their
business 50 that they might attend the
meetings without unnecessary conflict

COLONIES ARE
MAKING
READY

Fred L. Leslie. a well-known resi-
dent of the islands. returned from the
Colonies in the Mariana after a pleas
ant visit in Melbourne. Sydney and
Auckland He states that lavish prep
| arations are being made for the recep-
| ton of the American fleet In the three
to make its visit the most enjoyable
for the Americans.
Great rivalry exists between the
three towns, and aside from the SUBJ
scriptions of individuals, the govern
ments both state and city are partici-
pating so that the American sailors
will have a time in far-off Australia
not equaled by the receptions accord
ed them in their own country. There
has been raised and appropriated
sum of money aggregating nearly a
quarter of million dollars for the
visit TO Sydney. The sailors are being
referred to as "our coming cousins
or s'our American cousins" The fleet
Vice Admiral Poore in his flagship. the
Powerful, will meet the American fleet
at Auckland. Remaining there
couple of days, the Powerful will con-
vey the Governor General to Mel
bourne and there participate in the ,
welcome to be accorded at the Victo-
rian port.
The landing at Melbourne on August
% will be followed by procession and
reception. The entertainments are to
be separately given by those Interest,"
ed. There will be the civic celebra-
tions, the entertainments by the Com
monwealth and the State entertain
ments. 1t has been decided that the
uniforms of the sailors will entitle
them to free admission to the theaters
on one day of the visit. Free automo-
biles will be at the disposal of the
men, also. The trans will be free and
into the country on the
railroads will be given to the sailors
in uniform.
The Australians are getting wise to
the fact that the American sailors are
strangers to English money, so the
government has made it known that
during the visit, and for a reasonable
time after, traders and others who
may take American money at its face
value shall be refunded in British coin,
either at the Treasury or the banks.
Meanwhile, at the Intelligence Depart
nent or other suitable places, speci-
mems of genuine American money may
De exhibited, giving their names and
exact value.
Sydney's first blast of enthusiasm
will reach the fleet from the Heads.
The Heads are the gateway TO the
.ity. 1t is proposed to have at least
q, 900 people with flags and bands of
music congregated there as the war
hips pass in, to properly welcome
hem.

ainment of the American fleet in

-ision will be made for a thousand

the men of the fleet, the
government will act in conjunction
