The bill under consideration was
an act to amend the political code by
determining the number of years
for instruction in the day and even
ing elementary schools and providing
for separate schools for Indian and
Mongolian children
Assemblyman Polsley of Red Bluff
offered an amendment which insert
ed the word Malay" after "Mongo-
lian." This was declared by Assem-
blyman Saskett, who introduced the
bill, to be an object that would
eventually result in the exclusion of
japanese children. The latter race,
Sackett said. contended they were
Malays and not Mongolians as had
been the contention of the San Fran
cisco school board when 1t resolved
to segregate the children two years
ago. A roll-call was demanded and
the amendment was finally defeated
by vote OF twenty-seven to eigh-
teen.

: IRISH consul" TO
VISIT 'OULD SOD"

Thos. McTighe, the Irish Consul"
liner Hilonian on May IS en- route to
his old home in Ireland, and 1t will be
his first visit to his home since he
left 1t in 1884, for Tom has been in
the Hawaiian Islands for nearly
twenty five years, and in all that time
he has never been away from them,
and the only trips he has made from
Honolulu were to Hilo and Kohala.
1t may seem strange, just because
Tom is an Irishman, that he has never
seen the United States mainland.
Every Irishman who leaves his native
sod is supposed to nave landed in New
York and Joined the police force. but
this didn't happen to Tom. He left his
home in County Kerry, near where

CHIEF OF DETECTIVES
AND HIS PAY

While the pay of other senior officers
of the police department, including the
salaries of the sheriff and deputy, have
been very materially raised since Jan
uary /, by strange manipulation of
the departments monthly allowance,
the only salary which has been reduced
is that of the chief of detectives. I'm
der the Iaukea administration the sal
airy was $3.50 per month. When the new
sheriff came in it was reduced to $40.
When Kalakiela failed to make good,
and the cry went up for man who
could quell the criminal classes and
clean up the town again, Joseph Leal
was picked out as a man who could
make the town safe again and give a
sense of security to householders, es-
pecially the timid women. Leal went
into office at $40 a month, began to
draw in the crooks the first day he was
in Office, and has practically cleaned
up the town. And $140 is the figure
still. The chief gets but $50 month
more than captain of a watch, who
has but eight hours duty day, and
little or no responsibility, for the re.
sponsibility naturally falls upon the
shoulders of the chief. The sheriff now
has the opportunity to remain home at
nights, and the deputy sheriff has been
relieved of some of the responsibilities
he assumed while Kalakiela was in
command.
The duties Of the chief of detectives
requires him to be at the station at
eight O'Clock and prepare for the cases
to be brought before the court at nine
o o'clock. He looks after all the cases
of detective nature, and includes all
cases not drunks or those arrested on
warrants. He has to look up witnesses,
perpare cases, keep the gambling ele-
ment down, search for crooks, respond
| to calls in all parts of the island, is
out frequently all night on duty, sell
dom is able to quit business until after
midnight, and then be on duty again
the next day. No man in the depart
ment has such long hours, and yet he
| gets no raise to the former figure. 1t
is said that the $40 salary was deeid-
ed upon so that no appointee should re.
ceive larger salary than an elected
officer. There is a movement on to
raise the chiefs salary at least to what
it was before and possibly to $175. The
position demands better pay than al
most any other in the department. It's
duties, its dangers, its responsibilities
demand a good man, and the present
chief should receive proper compensa
tion for his long hours and good work
If merit counts as reason for better
pay, the present chief has earned it
Some of the supervisors have inquired
into the matter, and it is possible the
additional allowance may be made.

use them, iron and gold must
first be got out of the ore. The
same principle applies to cod liv-
er oil. Its virtues are not in its
fatty matters (; much less in its
sickening taste and smell. No
consumptive, or sufferer from any
other wasting disease, was ever
greatly benefited by the so-called
''plain" cod liver oil. The shock
it gives to the nerves, the repul-
sion and disgust it excites in the
stomach, the outrages it commits
upon the senses of smell and
taste, are enough to spoil any
medicinal potency that may be
in it for the majority of people.
This-to say nothing about its
being indigestible. Yet there
has always been reason to believe
that, among the elements which
form cod liver oil, there ex-
listed curative properties of the
highest value. But it was neces-
sary to separate them from the
nauseating waste material with
which they were combined. This
was successfully accomplished in

day afternoon when he was handed
check for the sum of $32, 1895, settle
ment in more than full for the judg-
ment obtained by the Territory against
Cotton Brothers and Company for the
loss of dredger at Pearl Harbor, leas
ed from the Territory by the firm.
The check is from the United States
Fidelity and Guaranty Company, which
went on the bond of Cotton Brothers
& Company on the appeal to the Su-
preme Court. While it was not legally
liable for more than $4,000 of the
amount the company was anxious to
meet its liability to the full satisfac-
tion of Attorney General Hemenway
and this desire, he says, has been am
ply fulfilled.
Attorney General Hemenway argued
the case of the Territory before the
United States Supreme Court at Wash
