Vice Speaker Rice was in the chair.
Ordinarily Rice wears the broadcast

he is as great a rascal as any one, ;"
said Castro, who was particularly vehe
ment. eff there is graft going on in
this House that any member knows
about and has not told, then | submit
that that member has committed a
grievous wrong. If such a thing has
occurred, which I doubt, that member
has placed this whole House in false

Long Struck With Surprise.
Long said that he was struck with
the strangeness of the idea that such
charges as appeared in the afternoon
paper should be ascribed to him.
ssEver since the word graft was
uttered in this House by the Speaker
on Saturday the air has been surcharg-
ed with suspicion and talk of graft. l.
believe that this matter should be in
vestigated, and that if there is graft
among the members or paid official OF
this House it should be exposed.
ssIt has gone so far, Mr.. Speaker,
that the chairman of the Committee
on Accounts has questioned the Legality
of paving some of the translation ac-
counts. Tt has gone farther, there have
been charges made of attempted brib-
cry. I favor letting the investigation
go further and go into all these ques-
tions. I for one desire a thorough IN
vestigation.

any such a thing as was charged in the
paper.
Rice Exposes the Press.
Rice warned the members from tax
ing the newspaper stories too seriously.
Everybody knew that the papers had
to have so many headlines everyday
and that they were not always par
ticular about what was printed.

until today.
Want No Purchasing Agent.
When consideration of the bill to
amend Act 68, the law providing a
purchasing agent for the Territory,
was up, Single proposed a further
amendment, his being one to knock
out the purchasing agent altogether.
The original amending bill is to sim
ply defer the coming into force of the
law until after July 1, to remove the
restrictions the Legislature has unwit-
tingly put upon itself in the matter
of spending money.
1t is understood that the heads of
departments induced Hapai to hold up
the Legislature money in order to
teach the members the Inconvenience
they had caused and would cause in
the future by the law, with the hope
that the law would be killed, just as
Single proposed in his amendment.
There are some in the House very
much opposed to taking off the
restriction so far as the de-
partments We're concerned, however,
and the members debated until the
time for the call on Queen Liliuoka-
lani arrived.

The feature Monday in the trial of
Patrick Calhoun, president of the

Ter of the legal answer made previous
to the present prosecution, wherein
James L Gallagher, former member of

oath as to his innocence of wrOngdo-
ing imputed to him by the district at
tOrney's office. Section by section,
Gallagher, who was on the witness
stand, heard the document read and
at the end he confessed to the Jury
that, the sworn statements read were
false.

Gallagher all details of the plot to re-

A FLYLESS TOWN

A very healthy movement is spring
ing up all over the country for the ex-
termination Cf the house fly. Its twin
pest, the mosquito. has been practi
cally conquered and the fly can be pre-
vailed against by the same means. A
thoughtful citizen Of Salisbury gives
some sensible views to the Post on
the subject. Referring to the fact that
in an attempt to abolish the house fly
nuisance. Florida, Georgia and Louis
lana are engaged in an anti-iy cam
paign, and the boards Of health Of
several other states are now issuing
bulletins concerning the pest, he says:
The house fly and mosquito breed in
filth and dirt, and if each householder
would see that his own premises are
kept clean and free from refuse Of all
kinds these insects would not find a
place for breeding. While it may be
possible TO exterminate the flies and
mosquitoes. this danger and trouble
may be greatly lessened by the proper
use of screen doors and window
screens. In this day of inexpensive
screen and wire cloth, there is no ex-
cuse for any householder Of even
means being without screens.

es of the flies we will soon get rio of

Mr.. Koonce has been an attorney
