PRESENT LAWS
Thayer Says New Charter e.
fective, if Signed, Too Late
for Operation This Year

That the next municipal election will
have to be conducted under the provi-
sions OF the present charter regard
less Of whether Governor Pinkham
signs the new charter or not, because,
as passed, 1t will not go into effect
until noon Of July /, is the discovery
made this morning by Wade Warren
Thayer. secretary of the territory. As
a result. he said, he would strongly
advise the governor not to sign the
new charter ...-.o.s..
The last section of the charter states
that it shall become effective at noon
July 1, 1917, except as to sections Fl
and 81 to IS. .-s. ~.
Section q deals with the manner
in, which the sheriff, county clerk.
treasurer. auditor and city and county
attorney shall be elected. and section
81 to S. with the territorial elections,
all OF which are the same as in the
present charter. The manner In which
members of the board OF supervisors
are to be elected is contained In sec
ton s, and therefore, does not come
under the exceptions, which means
that the proposal TO elect three sup
eryisors from the fourth district and
three from the fifth district and the
mayor for four years will not, go into
effect until July or after the next
municipal election would be held BY
Law. .+= =
u am required by law to send to
each county clerk tomorrow the prim-
airy election proclamation, instructing
each one as to what offices shall be
voted for and the manner of their
election" said Thayer. AS matters
stand I cannot see but what shall
have to make the proclamation under
the present charter. OF course, have
not gone into the new charter thor.
oughly, but from what have read il
seems plain that the new method OF
electing supervisors In the county of
Honolulu does not take effect until
July !. 1t is barely possible thatsome-
where in the charter may find
saving clause. As a result to prevent
unnecessary diseord and misunder.
standing shall advise the governor
not to sign the new charter" a r.

shown by the Anti-Saloon League to-

GOVERNORS'S PLAN
ON RECLAMATION
AIDS LANDOWNERS

Waikiki reclamation, was brought
forward for consideration by the legis-
iature this afternoon when Gov. Pink
ham appeared before the two houses
in joint session and read forceful
message on the subject which some
have said was dead for the session
he joint session was held according
to the announcement made by the
Star-BuIletin yesterday afternoon.
Gov. Pinkham's message sets forth
a number Of salient features of the
proposal to drain and reclaim the
WAIKIKI marshes Among these are
the proposal for an exchange Of gov
eminent land for land taken from
private owners, that the government
should contribute its proportion OF ex.
pense, that drainage canal or lagoon
IS the only way that appears feasible
TO handle the flow that must be dis
posed of, especially in times OF heavy
rain, that the flow must be carried
out through the reef and the proposal
that a commission be named.
In full the governors message is as
follows:
