WOULD AMEND
BILL, NOT
VETOIT

An oversight on the pair of both
senate and house Of representatives,
discovered in time by the governor
came near thwarting the expressed in.
rention OF the legislature and the peo-
pie. The bill intended to transfer con
troll of the water and sewer depart
lnents from che territory to the City
and County OF Honolulu, by being
amended in The senate( left no proyi-
sion for the departments maintenance
until July 1, 1914.
1t wa sfirst thought Yesterday, Wien
Governor FreaF discovered the error,
that the measure might be sent back
with his veto, thus requiring a new
bill, but as the time is growing so
brief for such enactment, the chief
executive has discovered a better
method OF handling the subject.
: He sent down to the senate this
morning draft of a bill which he
asks the legislature to pass, amending
the waterworks bill now on his desk.
He will hold the defective measure I'M
I'll the amending bill is passed, then
eign both at the same time.
As the present waterworks transfer
bill stands, 1t does not provide that
either the water or, sewer rates may
be fixed or collected, from the time
the law is enacted until the time the
apartments are to be taken over by
the city and county.
The bin Governor Frear has sent
down, seeking to amend the one in
error, proposes to permit certain
clauses Of the law at present govern
ing the two departments, to continue
in effect until the actual transfer
takes place.

CATION. Both Mr.. Elliott and Assistant
Engineer A. ID. M0rehouSc were dis
missed on technical charges of transfer
ring the funds of one bureau to the use
of another. Their dismissal in reality
was believed to bc connected with
charges that an official circular dealing

Mount Hood

Mount Hood, upon whose lofty peak
there lies a mantle of eternal snow,
Radiant in all thy beauty, meath the
sunsets crimson glow;
Thy transcendental charms so oft have
thrilled the native breast,
When at e'entide he fingers to gaze at
thy snowy crest.
Sentinel of 0regonl that guards a
mighty land,
Yielding obedience to none save thy
Creators hand;
For the Mighty God above us who
ruleth land and sea,
Hath ordained thee as witness of His
power and majesty.
Midst the rending and the groanings
and the sounds of great travail
Reaching forth unto the heavens with
a force that would prevail,
From the earth's deep depths arising
upward through baptismal fire
Thus was born the mystic mountain,
thus was formed the stately good,
And time that mocks at human might
shall pass thee lightly by,
What God hath wrought shall still en-
dure though men and nations die:
Unmindful of the storms that pass un-
touched by human greed
Banked by the SHOWS of a thousand
years thy glaciers still shall feed
The myriad streams that from they
sides gambol and leap and play,
Lingering in places to rest it seems,
then hurting fast away.
And then, oh mighty mountain, invio-
late and supreme
Proclaim the first the rising sun that

BARRETT CITIZENS
FAVOR THE RECALL

AT mass meeting of the citizens of
the West Side in the Barrett school
house Tuesday evening, the petition
that is being circulated for the recall
of the county court received almost
unanimous support, according to d. ID.
Harger. One hundred and five of the
citizens Of the district were present
and when standing vote was called
all but two of those present stood,
voicing a sentiment as favorable for
the recall, says Mr.. Harger.
The West Side citizens express their
disapproval of the actions of the court
on account of the appointment of C. K T..
Marshall as roadmaster.
However. the meeting was by no
means one sided. Strong friends of
the members OF the court took the floor
and expressed their belief in their in
tegrity as business men,. Among those
who took the side of the commissioners
were Fred I. Lisco and Frank c. Sher-
rieb.
