At 10:50 o'clock the Senate adjourn
ed. HOUSE.
Minister Cooper reported the follow

into free public recreation grounds,
and to maintain the same as such un
der the supervision of the Minister of

the laundering of clothing, bed cloth
ing, napery towels, and other articles
of like character.
Joint resolution, relative to the pres
ent system of taxation.
Just at this stage a recess of 15 min
utes was taken to give the committees
a chance to consider and sign various
reports.
Upon resuming the work of the ses
sion, Rep. Pogue reported for the Fin
ance Committee on House bill 86, re
lating to the payment of current ac
counts by granting the Minister of the
Interior power to borrow sums not
exceeding , $150,000 each time. The
committee recommended passage. Re
port laid on the table to be consider
ed with the bill.
Rep. Pogue also reported on House
bill S7, relating to the receipts from
the store at the Molokai settlement.
The committee recommended that the
bill be laid on the table. Report laid
on the table to be considered with the
bill.
Rep. Atkinson reported in part as
follows for the committee to whom had
been referred items in the appropria
tion bill bearing on the Department
of Foreign Affairs:
"Salary of Minister of Foreign Af
fairs f9,000.
"Salary of Secretary $4,S00.
"Salary'of Clerks (one at $2,400 and
one at $2,000) $4,400.
'"Salary of extra Clerks $1,000.
"The committee consider it better to
ivide the salary in this way as it will
div
prevent a Minister from raising the
pay of the ordinary clerks out of the
general appropriation for clerks, which
could be done were a lump sum voted.
There should be a sum set nsidp for px -
tra clerks wno are sometimes requir-
ed under an urgent press of business.
'Salary Clerk of Executive Council
o inn inCto q r.AA
"The object of the raise asked
for j
in this item was on account of the .
personal attributes of the present in-j
cumbent. but your committee does not j
regard this as a good reason. Unless i
for very good reasons, salaries should
not be raised and Government em
ployes should not be led to think that
Legislatures will be disposed to raise
salaries for special incumbents."
Rep. Pogue reported for the Finance
Committee on Senate bill 2-5. "An Act
to amend Section OS of Act 51 of the
Session Laws of 1S96. relating to in
ternal taxes, approved June 3d, 1S96,''
in part, as follows:
"That Schedule E grants to arbitrary
powers to the assessors to place a ficti-
tious and intangible valve to cornbin
i ations of property for business pur
! poses.
i "That no law on our session hook
lje n enforcement to create more
"auuii Liiau uub Mime tomt'auit'
E.)
"In the opinion of your committee,
the burden of taxation can be better
and fairer placed where it should be
the imposition of an income tax. where
the assessment can be made, not by
guess work or arbitrary ruling, but
! by the inspection of books of the ac
tual accounts of those liable to taxa
tion. "We do therefore recommend that
this bill be laid on the table, and that
a substitute, which we herewith in
troduce, providing for the repeal of the
present system of valuing property on
fictitious valuation be adopted."
Rep. Pogue moved for passage in
first reading of the substitute bill while
Rep. Richards moved its rejection on
the ground that it would bring on an
other fight between the people and the
Government. The motion of Rep.
Richards was lost and the substitute
bill passed first reading. Report laid
on the table to be considered with the
bill.
For the Finance Committee Rep.
Pogue reported in part as follows, on
items in the appropriation bill referred
to that body:
"Line 111 "We consider that the
Postmaster-General should be relieved
from the actual care of the details of
the Honolulu Post Office, and that the
secretary not only be the bookkeeper
of the bureau, but should also be prac
tically Postmaster of Honolulu. We do
therefore recommend that, this line
read 'Deputy Postmaster-Gneral, $3.
600.' "
"We concur in the above report with
the exception of the permanent settle
ment to Kaiulani. We consider that
this lady has been deprived of her
rights through no fault of her own
and that the amount in the appropria
tion bill is not a sufficient compensa
tion. We would therefore recommend
that the item pass at $6,000."
A. V. GEAR,
J. D. PARIS.
Report laid on the table to be con
sidered with the bill.
Rep. Robertson reported for the Ju
diciary Committee on various items in
the appropriation bill.
Rep. Gear reported for the special
committee to whom had been referred
House bill 23, relating to the proce
dure in actions of condemnation under
the right of eminent domain by de
claring certain uses connected with the
production and distribution of electri
city and electric power to be public
uses, and providing for the condemna
tion of property for such .uses. The
committee recommend passage of a
substitute bill which was presented.
This went through first reading and
the report was laid on the table to be
considered with the bill.
Rep. Kaai introduced the following
resolution:
Resolved, That the Committee on
Government Lands and Internal Im
provements be instructed to confer
with Superintendent of Public Works,
Rowell for-the purpose of ascertaining
the amount of money necessary for
laying pipes from the water head at
Kapela in Iao Valley to the town of
Wailuku and Kahului, on the Island
of Maui and that the committee be
further required to report by May
ISth."
Rep. Loebenstein "The resolution
embodies requirements which the com
mittee feels it cannot carry out. The
committee has wearied its limbs by
walking back and forth to the Public
Works office for information without
being able to get any."
Then came a long discussion on the
adoption of the resolution. It was
finally put through.
At 12 m., House adjourned.
Margaret and Lassie.
Tom Hollinger, owner of Margaret
H., the sorrel mare that lowered the
colors of Directress last Saturday, still
is thinking of the offer made to him
for a race on the 21st with Irish Lassie.
It all depends on the conditions Mar
garet II shows out after a rest from the
real work of her match with Direc
tress. Today or tomorroy Mr. Hollin
ger will have his racer tried out and if
she goes as he thinks she should, the
proposal of the Irish Lassie people for
a match will be accepted and details
fixed. The race would certainly make
a most interesting one.
