Hawaii Acting Governor Extends Session and Vetoes Item
The Acting Governor Henry E Cooper extends the legislative session by fourteen days through August 8 1901 to pass appropriation bills. He vetoes a 20000 item for land purchase for a hospital site, citing land grant concerns and territorial land laws. The messages prompt debate in both houses over unpaid bills and future loan appropriations.
