GREAT REGISTER
TOBED|SCUSSED
Republican Legislative Com
mittee Will Draft Bill For
Legislature.

The great register of voters, which
is called for in the Republican Terri
torial platform, Is to be taken up at a
special meeting of the Republican leg
islative committee within the next two
or three days.
Briefly this move is proposed to es-
tablish permanent registration for
voters of all parties, and to prevent
the need of registration before every
election. It's advocates point to the fact
that such plan will secure larger
votes. as many voters do not register
in time. either through carelessness or
Indifference.
Under the plan proposed the names
of all voters registered will be kept on
file at the Capitol, open to inspection
at all times and whenever changes IN
precincts are made, they will be noted
down. 1t will be like keeping set ol
books and transferring an account from
one column to another.

committee said today that he will cal

fact that its members are already pull
ing off some considerable sales, that
has given rise to the street talk of
lively competition between the two in
stitutions There are persistent reports
that the Honolulu exchange will lower
young adversary, but these are denied
by members of the former body.
A broker numbered among the mem
bers of the Hawaiian exchange declar-
ed this morning that it's policy is to
get business at a smaller commission
but larger in volume, and that If it is
necessary the new exchange will cut
still further In fact, although the two
exchanges are outwardly harmonious,
the feeling between them is said to be
growing acute.
The new exchange is not regularly
running yet. Members trade one with
the other but no regular open sessions
have been held.
The new schedule of commission
rates is now as follows
ON stocks selling below 81, cents
per share; at 81 and below IS, 3 cents

Governor E'rear does not think that
the plans agreed upon will involve OH
extension in the size of the building,
particularly If the collection of taxes Is
taken over by the counties, thus va
eating the space in the Judiciary build-s

bureau of the Territory.
The walls of the building are con-
sidered to be in perfect condition, es-
ceptionally good work having been done
in their construction.
An idea that has been suggested in
connection with the remodcling of the
Judiciary building is the erection of a
hall of records to the rear of the main
building and connecting by coIlonade.
