Eleventh Day-Afternoon Session
Yesterday morning Kaleiopu gave
notice that he would introduce bill
to authorize the payment of the coun-
| ty employees whose warrants are held
mp by Treasurer Trent and whom
Mayor Ferns appointees are hoping
To displaCe. But the title of this bill
provided for payment only for the
months of January and February. Dur
ing the noon recess Kaleiopu conclu-
ded that 1t would be just as well to
assure the workers of two weeks
more pay, so he withdrew his prev
ious notice of intention and introduce
ed an enabling act covering the time
between January and March 10,
1909. Those to be paid, according to
the bill, are persons employed by
the City and County through the
Board of Supervisors or by any COM
mittee or agent of the Board"
Oahu is to be punished for her fool
ishness in electing a Democratic Sher-
IN, If bill introduced by Waiwaiole
goes through, and the good Counties
of Hawaii, Kauai, and Maui are to
be rewarded for their faithfulness.
The latter, by the provisions OF Wal
waiole's bill, are to get rid of the
constant row that attends the cleo
ton of Sheriff of one party and Il
Deputy Sheriff having other political
affiliations. In the three Counties
named the Sheriff, with the approval
of the Board Of Supervisors, is given
Authority to appoint and remove his
deputy. But Oahu, for her sins, is
left out in the political cold.
