The Kishi controversy was a vex.
ing problem for the territory. The
Willesden's immigrants were detained
because Of sickness. Kishi furnished
the food. The territorial board of i'm.
migration held. and still holds, that
the federal government is morally and
legally responsible for Kishi's claim,
and it is likely that former Governor
Frear felt the same way about it, for
he vetoed a bill to pay Kishis claim
during the 1913 session of the legis-
lature. Despite the fact that Repre-.
sentative Cookies bill during the 1915
session to pay the caterer had been
enacted. the Immigration commission.
ers refused to approve payment and
were invited before the senate to ex-
plain.
Before that astute body the commits
sioners remained firm. They refused
to yield, and as suddenly as the affair
had come up, just as suddenly did the
public, the senate and public officials
in general forget ii. But Kishi didn't.
Auditor Fisher says that forthwith
