Hustle Coffee Tariff.
Shingle presented a resolution au.
thorizng the Speaker to cable a re.
quest to Kuhio to throw out his feet
and have coffee protected in the new
tariff schedule to the extent of six
cents a pound. The cable is to an.
nounce that joint resolution on the
matter was on. its way to Washington.
The resolution passed.
Alfonso asked by resolution for &c.
600 to complete the Hilo gail according
to plan.
Furtado Turned Down.
Furtado introduced a special appro.
priation bill of his own, setting aside
$4,000 for courthouse at Honokaa.
Correa protested against passing the
bill even on first reading, and moved
that it be rejected. Rice seconded the
motion, saying that such a bill would
open the flood gate for special bills
covering every resolution for appro-
priation already in. He thought now
was a good time for the House to 60
on record in the matter of special bills.
Kaleiopu, who always picks out some
technicality to chew on, like pup with
root, objected to debate on privileg
ed motion. The Speaker ruled him out
of order.
Furtado defended his bill but it was
rejected on vote.

Kaleopu's s Enabling Bill No. 2 was
read throughout second time and
passed on second reading, going on spe-
cial order of the day for today.

tain water and sewer-works, passed

Roll call showed: Ayes 80, noes 0.
Weary Debate.
House Bill 90. Alfonso, to set aside
the old jail site in Hilo as public
park, came up for a final vote. Cor
rea wanted to know how many parks
IIilo wanted, having one already and
now asking for two more. He thought
two enough for small town like Hilo.
He objected to taking up all the land
for parks and leaving none for public
buildings. He favored the Waiakea
park bill, which provides for a fairly
large park.
Kaleiopu said that Hilo only asked
for four acres out of all the Island of
Hawaii, while the little Island of Oahu
had many parks. Such reasoning was
unauswerable, although several wanted
to stem the tide of his eloquence prin-
cipally for the sake of stemming it.
This purposeless debate lasted until
, the Speaker stopped it.
, The bill carried without an opposing
, vote.
, Another Hilo Park Bill.
: House Bill l20, Alfonso was another
! park bill. Alfonso waived his right to
, speak 10 Kealawaa of Puma, who had
I made several attempts to break into
the former debate. The Puma member
q boosted hard for the bill. He thought
!, the park would be an excellent place
n for the Hilo folks to spend their time
h in and have a good, long rest
;. Kaniho wanted to know if what Ke-
/. alawaa wanted was just place for the
. people of Hilo to hang around in, and
Waiwaiole asked him if Hilo had the
;, money to fix up the place decently as
!. "A park.
n The bill finally passed.
!. House Bill III, Coney, doubling the
i. stamp tax on instruments not present
!. ed for record within three months of
!. execution, passed without debate.
