59th Day-Morning Session

With only one more day of the
session left after this one, the House
this morning found itself nearly
through with its work and had diff
Guilty in finding anything to occupy
itself with. Two Senate bills were
on the order of the day for final
reading, but they were quickly dis
posed of.
Kawewehi grasped the opportunity
to bring up again the subject of nam
ing one of defenseless Hilo's parks
after that eloquent statesman and
disinterested patriot Kealawaa, in
Producing concurrent resolution to
that effect in place of the joint reso-
luton that died because the Senate
adjourned too early yesterday. The
House, to Kealawaas great JOY,
adopted this second resolution.
Cohen succeeded in having Senate
Bill III, to take OFF the penalty for
delinquency in the payment of taxes,
revived, and 1t will come up for re-
consideration this afternoon.
Both the Senate and the House
will probably hold sessions tomorrow
night lasting until midnight, as they
will be afraid TO adjourn earlier lest
the Governor take advantage OF their
absence to veto n few bills. The
night session will probably be the
usual love feast. Kaniho is expected
to forgive everybody, even the re-
porters, as he did last session, he be-
ing of a mild and forgiving nature
Kaniho, unfortunately, has not been
In his seat In the House since the
luau he gave last Saturday.
Kealawaa's Park
II seemed n shame to Kawewehi
that after Kealawaa had invested in
nd distributed a box of cigars as n
token of his appreciation of the eff
forts of the Representatives to name
a park after the venerable member
from Hawaii, the scheme should fall
through just because the Senate
took notion to adjourn before the
joint resolution passed by the House
yesterday was sent up to the upper
chamber. So Kawewehi introduced
concurrent resolution that the
park at the corner of Pitman and
Ponahawai streets be known as Ke-
alawaa Park.
Alfonso opposed the resolution on
the ground that a concurrent resolu-
ton cannot become a law. But the
House serenely adopted the resolu-
ton, anyway.
Hospitals Exempt
Senate Bill IS. to exempt hospi-
tails from taxation, which was resur-
rected yesterday to take the place of
a House bill to the same effect killed
in the Senate, passed its third read
ing. 1t had ben amended so as to
include the institutions to be benefit
ted by 1t only hospitals which main
tain free beds.
Kalaupapa Magistrate
Senate BIZ $50, appropriatlng
5000 for the salary of the District
Magistrate of Kalaupapa at s25 a
month, also passed its final reading
in the House without opposition or
debate.
Second Readings
Senate Bill 1852, making an addi-
tional appropriation of $4,000 for the
use of the Second Circuit Court of
Maui for the biennial period ending
June 30, 1909, passed its second
reading under suspension of the
rules.
Senate Bill 1853, relating to the
dissolution of corporations, also pass
ed its second reading.
Out of the Waste Basket
House Concurrent Resolution 20,
Alfonso, the Home Rule resolution,
which expresses the opinion that all
