THE SENATE.
FORTY-EIGHTH DAY.


Knudsen presented a report of the
judiciary committee on House bill to
amend the Honolulu Municipal Act,
submitting various amendments with
which they recommend that the bill
pass. 1t relates to the powers of the
supervisors. The proposed amend
ments add to their duties the con-
demnation of unsafe structures and
the collection and disposition of rub
bish and garbage.
The same committee reported on
House bill to amend the County Act
and the Honolulu Municipal Act res
pectively, recommending a new bill
combining the objects of both. This
bill adds a new subdivision to sec
tion of the County Act as Follows:
''To establish and maintain water
works and sewer works. to collect
rates for water supplied to cousum-
ers, and for the use of sewers. To
take over from the Territory existing
water works systems, including water
rights, pipe lines and other appurte-
nances belonging thereto, and sewer
systems, and to enlarge, develop and
improve the same. To build, equip,
maintain and regulate, ami change,
discontinue and re-establish hospitals,
school houses, court houses, jails and
houses of detention, punishment, con-
finement and reformation, and to give
aid to hospitals. Each county shall
provide for the maintenance and re-
pair of all existing school houses,
court houses and jails within its
boundaries"
The same committee returned the
bill for the relief of Henry Smith,
chief clerk of the Judiciary, recon-
mending it be considered in commit
tee OF the whole, as the judiciary
committee did not feel able to decide
the question involved.
ORDER OF THE DAY.
Senate bill appropriating 100000
from loan funds for constructing Kula
pipeline and waterworks passed third
reading unanimously.
The bill to provide for payment OF
the bonds of the loan just mentioned
by the County of Maui was also pass
ed.

Pratt 7
TO STAY

1t is understood on good authority
that if Land Commissioner Pratt is
thrown out of office either by a con-
soidation of his position with that
of Territorial Surveyor or by a fail
ure to bep confirmed by the Senate,
he will be made Territorial Treasurer
by Governor Frear. As Treasurer
Campbell's term does not expire till
the Legislative Senate is pau, this
will mean that it will be two years
before Pratt's name would come up
for confirmation. On the other hand
il is now stated on the best of auth
ority that in its present frame of
mind the Senate is ready to confirm
Pratt for Land Commissioner

Besides the action ON Governor
Frear's reappointuent of Attorney
General Hemenway elsewhere report
ed, the Senate did considerable of
miscellaneous business this morning
and made some progress with the
general revision of the tax laws in
committee Of the whole. Just before
adjournment it incontinently threw
out bill which would enforce the
contract system for road work on the
counties, after having a few days ago
forced a similar measure upon the
government of the City and County
of Honolulu

SUSTAINED
IN SHORTHAND ROW

House Stenographer Lloyds resigna
tion was read in the House this morn
ing and Speaker Holstein's action in
accepting the resignation was confirm
ed by a vote of eighteen to six.
Cohen made it apparent that he be-
lieved the resignation due to the in
fluence of the Big Stick and he roared

charges of graft which had been more

lowance, over his $40 per diem, of Is
cents per folio for transcription of

fact there has altogether come forth

WALTER F. FREAR,
Governor of Hawaii.


Knudsen moved that the Senate now
act upon the appointmet.
The same member moved that the
appointment of Mr.. Hemenway be con-
firmed.
Fairchild stated that he had been
assured that the Governor had no in
tention of reappointing Treasurer A. j..
Campbell, and therefore there was no
occasion for the members to compli-
cate the two cases.
Chilllingworth moved that the ayes
and noes be called. Carried
Coelho asked for a secret ballot, say
ing that on account of his action upon
the liquor question Theodore Richards
had caused a mortgage to be foreclosed
against a member of the Senate. Mem
bers should be protected.
Chiningworth said that personally
he was opposed to a secret ballot, but
if the conditions were such as Coelho
had stated he would vote for it.
The motion for secret ballot car
ried and the vote resulted as above,
confirming Mr.. Hemenway by a ma
jority of four of the ballots marked
one member having shirked his pri-
vilege.

quite little noise, first because the
stenographer was not satisfied with an
easy ten dollars a day, that doesn't
come many days in the year, and sec
ond because an evening paper believes
there is graft in the matter OF translat-
ing bills of the House.
Following is the correspondence be-
tween the Speaker of the House and
the stenographer:
After a quiet consultation with Mr..
Castro chairman of the accounts COM
mittee, l now find that the arrange
ments and prices for typewriting
agreed upon were to establish a price
for the ordinary typing of bills, etc, by
outside parties. This fact has result
ed in a serious misunderstanding of the
case on my part I realize that the
influence of yourself and Mr.. Castro in
a great measure secured me the posi-
tion of stenographer, hence | have ask
ed Mr. Alfonso to withdraw the reso-
luton, if such might be possible and
have the same eXpunged from the min
utes. AS you have made other arrange
ments in getting out the minutes, ! see

Joaquin Miller. the poet Of the Ser

that the average college graduate is

his capabilities than the city. Make
the college graduate work with his
hands, said Mr.. Miller, as well as
his brains. I've seen so many worth
less college men that I'm not greatly
disposed to congratulate one who has
done nothing but graduate. The prisons
are filed with oilers. The last time |
visited the Pennsylvania penitentiary |
found % lawyers and 45 doctors and
many bankers and merchants. These
men we're college graduates. 1t is
