An echo of the late campaign and
the charges of precinct-roll stuffing in

through and drastic measures sug-
gested to make the principle of "fair

the bill provides that precinct

at least five days notice through pub
lication of the secretary's call three
times in English, Hawaiian and Por-

THIRTY-ElGHTH DAY.

Strong approval of the plan to take
the Honolulu water works and sewers
from under executive control of the
Superintendent of Public Works and
put them under commission is given
by the finance committee of the House,
which this morning reported unani-
mously in favor of Correa's bill aimed
at this move. The report was adopted
by the House, and tomorrow morning
the bill will be up for final passage.
The committee makes few changes in
the bill as originally introduced. The
principal amendment is one which
makes the board similar in character
and in organization to the proposed
board of harbor commissioners. The
committee on this point recommends:
Amend Section so as to read as
follows: Said board shall consist of
five members, one of whom shall be the
Superintendent of Public Works of the
Territory, who shall be chairman, ex
officio, and four shall be appointed by

ever, that upon the first appointments,

the commissioners must be members of

HOUSE AND SENATE PASS
BILLS TO HALT WORK OF
RECRUITERS FOR CANNER|ES

Both the House and Senate this
morning passed the bills introduced on
Wednesday directed against unscrupu-
lous labor recruiters The bill is an
act defining, regulating and licensing
emigrant agents.
In the House there was no opposi-
tion to the bill itself, although it af-
forded some debate. Rice, the intro
ducer of the House measure, presented
some amendments, one of them raising
the license fee from $500 to $1,000 for
each county where the agent operates.
Another provides that in case a minor
has no parents, the consent of the At
torney- General shall be necessary be-
fore he is allowed to be recruited.
Tavares raised a constitutional ques-
ton as to whether or not the contract
labor law is involved, but was assured
by Chairman Castle of the judiciary
committee that it is not, whereupon
the bill passed third reading with a
unanimous vote.

Will Fortify
Panama Canal

by Captain Putnam along the lines
planned by Major Winslow.
Besides the work he has done at
Honolulu Major Winslow has been
detailed for other important fortifica-
tion work by the War Department,
and his selection to take charge of
the work at Panama comes as a
recognition of work we'll done
He goes first to Washington for
consultation and will then sail direct
for the canal zone to start the fogti-
fication work.
This will be the strongest fortifica-
tion ever done by the government of
the United States, and the work will
cover a period of several years, but
will be completed in large part by
the time the canal is open for traffic
in 1915.
Major Winslow stands near the top
of the majors in the Engineer Corps,
having been promoted to his present
grade April 2, 1906.

him.
