AFTERNOON SESSION.

After "A long recess, the House re.
ceived IA number of committee reports.
The Judiciary Committee had three,
one reporting in favor of Carley's bill
to define the legal meaning of the word
Garage" another favoring Shingle e
bill for service of legal papers by pub
LEGATION, the third recommending Fur
tado's bin regarding the payment of
jurors for the table. All the reports
were adopted.
The Finance Committee tabled Don
thitt y bill to amend Section 1854, with
the consent of the introdueer, the mat
ter being the same as that covered in
House Bill 1876. The committee rec
commended the passage of Douthitt'E
House Bill 1876, which brings the law
relating to the issuance of preferred
stock nv corporations into conformity
with the law elsewhere.
First Veto Message.
Then came the veto message from
the Governor, borne in proudly by Pri-
waite Secretary Mcbride. BY the very
way he carried his hat, it could be
seen that Mcbride knew his errand to
be an important one.
The veto was upon the Enabling Act,
the Governor reminding the members
that both they and he were in public
Offices to work for the public and not
TO squander the public money. He
stated himself TO be in favor of pay
ing those who did actual work, even
though illegally appointed, and OPP
posed to paying out good money 10
those who did no work at all.
On motion of Rice, the consideration
went over until tomorrow, while the
Speaker announced a meeting of his
cabinet.

passing by good majority in the
House of the special immigration tax
bill, bill intended to raise approx

grafton of European laborers into the
Territory. The special tax is of two
per cent, TO be imposed upon all in
comes over $4,000 year.
The bill is one proposed by the plan
ters themselves and worked for BY
them, the opposition coming principal
ly from the Hawaiian members of the
House, who see in the bill one to pro-
vide means to ultimately deprive
them of their political control.
One of the important points made by
the passage of this bill is that it prac-
tically kills every other bill in the Leg
islature relating to increased taxes, al
though the benefit to the general fund
from the special tax will only amount
to about $4,000 year.
Sugar Advancing.
During the week the quotations for
sugar have been advancing most salts
.factorily, the hopes of the producers in
the matter of prices being in n fair
way to be met.
Mainland Demand for Pines.
The demand in the Eastern markets
for Hawaiian pines has been such that
the stocks in all the large cities have
been practically exhausted and yester-
day cable was received from the New
York agent of the Hawaiian Pineapple
Growers Association announcing tlat
the demand was greater than the sup
ply and asking if shipments were be-
ing made This is regarded as most
satisfactory and a direct and most con
vincing proof that the advertising cam
paign is bringing about big results.
At the present time the various can
ming companies are sending out some
big shipments.

Rice presented a resolution instruct
ing the sergeant-at arms to arrest all
members absent from any session of
the House without excuse certificated
by the Speaker.
Everybody thought this was joke,
but the Speaker gravely read the rules
to show that absence without excuse
was a sufficient cause for arrest.
Alfonso wanted the sergeantat-a
to be armed with badge and billy
and moved that the vote on the reso-
luton be deferred until April !.
Shingle rose to oppose the resolution,
stating that it would be a degradation
for an honorable member to be pulled
by anyone, even so exalted parsonage
as the honorable sergeant-atarms He
wanted to know if this resolution was
directed at him or who.
Rice explained that the resolution
was to force members to be in their
seats on third readings and not allow
them to skip out and shirk going on
record on important matters.
The resolution will come up for a
vote on Monday.

The second petition bore the sigma

points out that the Moore Bill will
