The Churchill county standard. (Fallon, Nev.) 1908-1920, 1911-01-19
LEGISLATURE IN S ES SION
Churchill County Has Capable
Delegation And Results
May Be Expected.

The State legislature is now in ses-
sion in Carson City, and interesting de-
velopments can be looked for within
the next few days. II precedent is fol-
lowed, work of the session will be ac-
complished along during the last thirty
days, when real work supplements dis
eussion and pickering. Tho limit of the
legislative sessions in this state is sixty
days, after which the solons must work
without pay, if lawmaking is continued.
Already numerous bills have been an
nounced. State Senator w. j. Bell, of
Humboldt county has declared his in
tention of introducing bill repeating
the law that made mandatory the
states acceptance of the North Caro-
lima gift bonds, of face value of $500, :
900.
Both the Senate and Assembly organ
izations have perfected; the attaches
named and officers elected The Repub-
licans have majority in the house,
while the Democrats are in the prepon-
derance in the Senate. Churchill coun-
ty is ably represented in both branches
of the legislature. In the Senate Thos.
Dolf will work for his constituents, and
those who know Mr.. Dolf expect re
suits, for he is suave, smooth, and not
easily disturbed by temporary reverses
with the result that the objects he
seeks are almost uniformly encompass
sed; while in the Assembly, w. II.
Williams and A. r. Merritt, both loyal
Churchill eountyites, will always have
an eye open for those things they deem
best for their section and state.
This paper will have each week a
synopsis of the legislative proceedings
of the preceding week.

Totals

When the total population Of the
United States was announced 1t Wgs
generally conceded that the basis of
representation would be raised TO 225.
900 or 230, 600 in order to hold down the
total membership, and prevent the
house becoming more unWeildy than
it is at present But when the figure s
were studied by the committee on cen
sus which will report the reapp0rtiOn-
ment bill, peculiar situation deyel-
oped. 1t was discovered that ii u @
basis of represent was raised to
a point which would prevent any in
crease in the membership of the House
Ia states would suffer a eurtallment of
their representation, because OF their
failure TO keep pace with the normal
growth of the country, and by strange
coincidence, seven of the ID states
in question are represented on the
census committee.
Naturally, the members from states
in danger of losing representation were
quick TO voice their opposition to the
plan originally proposed. and they at
once demanded that the rate be fixed at
rate that will allow every state to re-
tain its present representation. The
experts Immediately got busy, and
found that any plan which will prevent
reduction will result in increasing the
total membership to 435. There are
now 391 members.
In view of the fact that ID states
would suffer decrease in their repre-
sentation, should the total membership
of that body be held down TO 39l, as at
present, it is altogether unlikely that
the basis of representation will be ad-
vanced much beyond 100000. In the
first place, the seven members of the
census committee will probably be able
to prevent the report of any bill which
provides for greater basis representa-
ton, but, should they be overruled and
should the House itself adopt higher
figure, the probabilities are that the
Senate would reject it and substitute a
figure that will prevent the reduction in
representation from any state With
IA states involved, there would be 28
votes againsta high basis of representa-
ton and in a short session q senators
would have no difficulty at all in dictat-
ing terms to the entire Senate on a
question of this character.
The state of Idaho may count itself
very lucky that the situation described
has arisen, for had the basis of repre-
sentation been fixed at 225, 900 or over,
Idaho, would have but one Representa-
tive for the next ten years On the basis
of 2l0, COO Idaho will have two members.
New Mexico, whose population is very
little in excess of that of Idaho, will
also have two Repre-. entatlves on the
210. 900 basis, whereas it would have
only one. were Il higher figure adopted.
Neither of these states has sufficient
population for two full districts, but
each one has one full district and the
major fraction of another. and the ma
ior fraction gives an additional member
under the ~ that has always been
/ followed heretofore.

Appropos the announced dam con-
struction plans, it is stated that prob
ably all dam building work will be done
by what is termed in government circles
''force account" plan. The boarding
houses will probably be conducted by,
or at any rate, under government super
vision, and the establishing of saloons
in the vicinity of the working forces
will be strenuously opposed by the gov
ernment officials. In fact, Project
Engineer D. w. Cole has already made
it plain that liquor vending shall be con.
fined to Fallon and Hazen, and has
asked the county's executive board to
consider the governments s wishes in the
premises and refuse to license any sa-
Icon in the vicinity of the dam.

c. r. Hemenway stated that he
spoke for the Chamber of Commerce

Association, all of which, he declared
We're opposed to changing the banking

1T is not sound to press this legis-

said Hemenway. Its Importance
means thoughtful consideration and
we do not desire to see any general
or hurried change in the existing sys-
TEN, providing a proper division be-
tween the province of the trust COM
pany and the bank"
Abe Lewis, speaking for the Bank
of Hawaii, took strong exception to
any action on the bill at the present
session of the Legislature
'"Ihis bill goes to the heart and kerr
mel spf our whole local financial sys-
tenn" said Lewis. THE present law
is something that has stood the test
of time and should not be hastily over
ttlrnad without careful and mature de-
liberation. There is not sufficient time
for this at the present session of the
Legislature. We have been operating
under this system ana have learned to
depend upon it, and J., maintain that to
pass this bill now would involve a
violent and radical change. Let us
have a commission study this subject,
There is no reason for haSty action,
and hasty action in a matter of this
kind is dangerous"
Carl Smith, speaking for the First
Bank of Hilo, asked that action be
so Hawaiis financial insti-
tutions could be heard from.
Senator Fairchild stated that 2nother
hearing on the bill would be held next
Saturday. "'

SENDING CHILDREN TO BILLIARD PARLORS

Legislators who are holding up the school bill or striving
to eliminate the vital provisions that make the schools and
the school children first charge HaWaS revenues are
giving their active support to the perpetuaton of conditions
of which Wapahu school, as presented in another column

They may present variety of excuses to support their
position but the practical fact of their attitude u.s. that they

billiard parIorS instead of the schools. @
No man with any humanity in his makeup can view this
condition with indifference.
is certain that the Federal authorities who are in
measure involved in the promise of the Territory of Hawaii
to furnish the children within its borders free public school,
ing, will not consider the situation with indifference.
Make no mistake. 1t is impossible for the people and the
interests of this Territory to feed financially off the favorable
American laws and kindly interpretations of the United
States government and then, when the children of the pub
lie schools come up for the privileges and opportunities that
child deserves declare there is not enough money 10 90
around; the children must suffer- and there altogether too
many aliens anyway.
Who brought these alien children here And who gain

those alien children

viding for bank examiner.
f. / Spalding of the Bank of Homo
lulu, in response to question by Fair
child, stated that the banking inter-
ests also objected to the bank exam
nation hill, because the Same object
was covered by existing law,
"The banking interests have warm
personal regard for Mr., Brown, and
amicable relations with his bank" said
Spaldng, but we do not feel that we
can support him in this legislation. AT
the present time there is no cause for
suspicion against any local institution

of the late financial crisis, maintain
ing a cash payment when their MAIN

services at that time, but we can not
agree with him on this point. The
banks feel the present law providing
and trust companies is sufficient The
treasurer can examine the banks UNI
der the present law twice a year"
In response to question by Senator
Fairchild, Mr.. Spalding showed that
the examination referred to was man
datory in it's Mntent.
Mr.. Spalding then stated that further
law-making was undesirable and that
no good purpose would, be served by
allowing banks to encroach upon the
province of the trust companies.

stated that the whole objection to the
bill was based on a dog n-the-man-

to the desire of the First American

fully regulating the banking and trust
business Of this Territory"
When Chairman Fairchild called the
meeting to order, he read the comfnu-
nication and the resolution, and then
suggested that since Senator Brown
was the introducer of the bill in the
Senate, it would be well for him to
make any argument he had in support
of its passage.
The whole banking community
seems to be against the BILL" said
Fairchild, the introducer being ap-
parently the only banker who is for
it,"
Brown Defends Bill.
This bill has been before the tinan-
cial community since February "a
last" said Senator Brown. ITO ask
that this bill be deferred and the sub
ject be considered by a commission is
simply a desire to kill the bill at this
session of the Legislature. The new
Senate bill, No. 81, has been drafted
to meet the objections Of those trust
companies that were represented at a
public hearing of this community. I
have told what the intention of this
bill is. 1t is simply giving the bank
ing corporations rights they are entis
tied to, to act as trustee and to hold
property under foreclosure Now such
property must be sold within five
years by the bank holding it-oftimes
at a loss. 1t gives the trust companies
the right to do banking business. 1t
is just and reasonable"

CAPT. MAX SCHLEMME
WRITES HIS VIEWS

Editor Evening Bulletin: As
| am subscriber to the Event ne
b u etin and also read. to certain
l'eXtent the other newspapers of Homo
lulu, ! for one, an old resident of the
Islands, must say that there seems to
Cottrill, who was sent by President
Taft here to take charge of the internal
revenue office, which l think is very
wrong. And why sit? Because he is
a colored man?
In one of the papers l one time saw
that Mr. Atkinson of the Republican
club stated that Honolulu should be
the last city in the world to have a
negro inspector
I, for one think different, and say
Honolulu shall be the first city for such
people.
If any of you went thirty-six years
ago through the Islands, and even now
this very date, you will see some of
our best citizens are married to brown.
And in all of my experience in the
Islands | found some of these colored
people most true and faithful and with
a good and open heart and good feeling
towards others.
| myself, with my last two years eX-
perences would rather have colored
Governor of Honolulu today, with a
good and true heart, than man like
Governor Frear, who has no feeling for
man with family except his own.
l have always said to some of my
friends, when Mr. Cottrill arrives
would be one of the first ones to shake
hands with him, and | had a chance
to do so last Saturday, as | happened
to notice quite a lot of people to turn
around in the King street car going to
Kaihi and ask one another whether
that wasn't Mr.. Cottrill sitting in the
back of the car / also was asked and
turned around to look, and / told Mr..
Fernandez, the man who did ask me,
that it was him and that | would talk
to him as soon as he gets out of the
car, and before | knew it Mr.. Cottrill
got off the car at the corner of Ka-
Mi road and King street / myself got
OFF at Berkeley switch and walked back
TO meet him. When / arrived there L
asked him if he wasn't Mr. Cottrill and
he answered, Yes"
| told him then / was very glad to
meet him, congratulated him and said
that / hoped President Taft would send
some more men down here like him,
after which he introduced me to his
wife, brother-in-la and his little son.
After which | excused myself from him
and said | would have a talk with him
in his office some day. And / must say
that the man Is very fine gentleman
ever met, and ! am also sure that
every native Hawaiian will support
him, Respectfully yours,

in Southern waters this year visiting
many out-of-the-way islands in the
