PROMOTION WORK
TO Be SHOWN
senate

At the regular meeting of the pro-
motion committee held at II o'clock
this morning, Secretary Wood present
ed to the members, for their approval,
his answer to a communication from
the senate committee on forestry, ag-
riculture and promotion, asking for a
complete statement with regard to the
advancement of local promotion work,
the number of incoming tourists, the
increase of tourist travel during the
past two years, and other questions,
eight in all. along these lines.
The statistics compiled by Secre-
tary Wood in his answer cover pc
riod as far back as five years, and re-
lating also to the increase of promo
ton work during the past year. The
statement was approved by the mem
bers present, and several suggestions
were made with regard to the EDtel
accommodations. One of the mem
bers stated that, instead of dealing
with the hotel accommodations on
Oahu alone, that it would be a good
plan to include all the other islands as
we'll
Following a general discussion of
Mr.. Woods statement to the senate
committee, the regular business of the
meeting was taken up. The secretary
reported that, at the request of the
members of the Chinese baseball
team, he had made inquiries as to
special rates for them on their tour
to the coast next month. He called
on Hackfeld & Company. and made
arrangements whereby the members of
the team will be given the regular
rate covering theatrical talent, which
is fifty-six dollars. This offer holds
good for the China, which is scheduled
to sail for San Francisco April 16.
A communication from Zeno K My
ers, which was read at the meeting,
was to the effect that he could no Ion
ger continue as member and chair
man of the promotion committee and
asked that his resignation be accept
ed He gave his reason as being that
of urgent business which required all
his attention. His resignation was ac-
cepted by the committee, and a vote
of thanks rendered him for his long
service in behalf of local promotion
work. The matter of appointing a
new chairman was taken up and the
name of Fred Baldwin was proposed
by Mr. Hemenway. 1t was voted to
ask Mr.. Baldwin to accept the chair
manship of the committee.
Another matter which was taken up
at the meeting, but which was not
thoroughly decided upon, was the idea
of making canvass of all the busi-
ness houses OF the city with view
TO securing data concerning the in
crease in percentage of the tourist
travel this year over last year. In

First Veto of Session Sustained
in House When Reasons
Are Made Plain

Governor Frear's first veto of the
present legislatures action on any
measure appeared shortly after 10
o'clock this morning, the chief execu-
tive sending back to the house its bill,
introduced by Jack Kalakiela, prohib-
iting the sale of fish or other products
from ponds used in raising and main
tanning ducks and other fowls.
In his message the governor called
attention to the Objectionable fea-
lures, and his objections were heartily
sustained by the representatives. who
voted unanimously to sustain the veto.
Immediately thereafter the parent
Of the original bin introduced H. b.
1o5, covering the same subject and
eliminating the flaws. This was read
for the first time and under a suspen-
sion of the rules, placed on the order
of the day for second reading next
Tuesday.
The governors first veto message to
the 1913 legislature reads as follows:

DEMOCRATS SPLIT

violently opposed to Z. ID. Pringle, in
dorsed by vote of Ia to l0 IN the
central committee for collector OF GUS

was caDied back to Washington, it is
low said on good authority tnat the
minority has sent word TO John II.
Wilson, the Hawaii committeeman who
went to Washington, that the insiders
want r. w. Cathcart. On other things
there is also said to be a big split.
The committee, it was learned yes
terday, recommended l.. Helbush for
postmaster at Hfio, j. NJ. Bright, for
Lahaina postmaster and t. b. Lyons
for Walluku postmaster. But the mi
nority wants H. u. Corbett for the
postmaster at Hilo and has sent on
word to that effect.
