State Funding for the Bishop Museum STATE FUNDING FOR THE BISHOP Joyce D. Kahane Rescarchcr Report No. 2, 1988 Legislativc Reference Bureau State C:apitol, Room 004 Honolulu, Hawaii 96813 FOREWORD This study on the Bishop Museum was prepared in response to Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 56, adopted during the 1987 legislative session. Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 56 requested that the Bureau study the feasibility of designating the Bishop Museum as the State Museum for Natural and Cultural History with an annual line item appropriation for the operation of the Museum, and to consider state acquisition of Museum real estate properties that are of cultural and historic significance to the State. The study primarily focusses on the question of state funding to the Museum. We extend our sincere appreciation to Bishop Museum staff and administration for their gracious cooperation and assistance throughout the course of this study. We also wish to acknowledge administrators of Hawaii state departments and agencies, and state agencies, museum organizations, and museums around the nation who responded thoughtfully to our questionnaires and provided us with valuable information and help.

Bishop Museum as the State Museum for Natural and Cultural History with a line item appropriation of an annual public contribution for the operation of the Hawaii State Museum and further, that the study consider acquisition, by the State of Hawaii, of those Bishop Museum real estate properties that are of cultural and historical significance to the people of Hawaii." The Resolution states the Bishop Museum would be a more stable and productive educational and scientific institution if such public funds were made available, and points out that the Bishop Museum contributes to the public because: (1) Specimens and objects of natural, botanical, ethnological, architectural, historical, and archaeological value or interest are transferred to the Bishop Museum, pursuant to section 6E-6, Hawaii Revised Statutes; (2) The Bishop Museum is a rich reservoir of educational resources for Hawaii's students; (3) The Bishop Museum conducts research programs in the Pacific region and these studies help preserve the arts, artifacts, and biological specimens of the Pacific; and (4) The scientific research conducted by the Bishop Museum on animals, plants, and cultures of the Pacific is beneficial to research institutions throughout the world, and this research focuses international attention on Hawaii. STATE FUNDING FOR THE BISHOP MUSEUM The Resolution offers as a model for the relationship between state government and the Bishop Museum, the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., an educational and scientific institution founded and operated under the concept of public-private partnership. The issue of state support for the Bishop Museum is not a new one. In response to legislative requests, the Legislative Reference Bureau published two reports entitled: Feasibility Study: State Acquisition of Bishop Museum' and Financial Vicissitudes of the Bernice P. Bishop Museum,' in 1972 and 1973, respectively. The 1972 study concluded that "state acquisition of the Museum is not a viable option at this time.. Financial assistance, rather than government acquisition of Bishop Museum, appears to be a practical and feasible method by which the State of Hawaii could support a part of its responsibility in the area of providing museum services.. Financial assistance to Bishop Museum could enable it to play a greater role as the institution for the learning, preservation, and presentation of the unique culture and heritage of the children of Hawaii".' Methodology In order to determine whether it would be feasible to establish the Bishop Museum as the State Museum for Natural and Cultural History with an annual line item appropriation, and for the State to acquire certain Bishop Museum real estate properties, it was decided to gain a broad perspective on museums; learn about the funding of museums in other states, and the concept of the public-private museum partnership; better understand the workings of the Bishop Museum, in relation to other museums in the nation; and examine the contribution of the Bishop Museum to the State of Hawaii. The emphasis of the study, as in Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 56, was on the question of state financial support to the Museum. Accordingly, the principal data gathering activities consisted of the following: INTRODUCTION (1) Review of certain printed materials on museums, and attempts to locate information on government funding to museums in the United States; (2) Investigation of the concept of the public-private museum partnership and the workings of the Smithsonian

    Bio-bibliography of C. Montague Cooke, Jr. 31 Bibliography By WILLIAM J. CLENCH CURATOR OF MOLLUSKS, MUSEUM of COMPARATIVE ZOOLOGY INTRODUCTION The following list of titles and scientific names of both plants and mollusks is complete, so far as can be traced, for the work done by Dr. Cooke. He left, however, several manuscripts in various stages of completion, which in time will be published. The type specimens of most of the species, subspecies, and varieties de- scribed by Dr. Cooke are in Bishop Museum and the Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia; but many type specimens were generously donated to other institutions by Dr. Cooke, for his was an exceedingly broad policy. Any type series in sufficient numbers was divided and such duplicates as could be spared sent on exchange or as outright gifts to other institutions. He believed that this policy not only aided other workers in their reference to authentic material but safeguarded type specimens by housing them in various parts of the world. With few exceptions, the new species described by Dr. Cooke, either alone or jointly with other authors, were based on material from Polynesia and Melanesia, wherein lay his main interest. His knowledge of these areas was profound, and his library contained most of the malacological papers dealing with Polynesia and Melanesia. His collection contained many specimens that had been compared with type material in other institutions. Both the library and the collection were years in the making, and all were available for use by his colleagues and correspondents. A LIST OF MOLLUSKS DESCRIBED BY C.

Foraminifera of Hawaii: Literature Survey THOMAS A. BURCH & BEATRICE L. BURCH (Research Associates in Zoology, Hawaii Biological Survey, Bishop Museum, 1525 Bernice Street, Honolulu, HI 96817, USA) The result of a compilation of a checklist of Foraminifera of the Hawaiian Islands is a list of 755 taxa reported in the literature below. The entire list is planned to be published as a Bishop Museum Technical Report. This list also includes other names that have been applied to Hawaiian foraminiferans. Loeblich & Tappan (1994) and Jones (1994) dis- agree about which names should be used; therefore, each is cross referenced to the other. Literature Cited Bagg, R.M., Jr. 1980.

  • Three Chinese Stores in Early Honolulu
    Three Chinese Stores in Early Honolulu Wai-Jane Char Early in the nineteenth century, there were three Chinese stores in Honolulu, listed in The Friend on August 11, 1844 as "Samping [Samsing] & Co., Ahung & Co. [Hungtai], and Tyhune." The stores are long gone and forgotten, but they were significant among the commercial establishments of that time. The first store mentioned, Samsing Co., had a modest beginning in the 1830s, next to a bakery on Fort Street, in the middle of the block near the west entrance of today's Financial Plaza. Later Samsing Co. had a location on King Street facing south in the middle of the block between Bethel and Nuuanu Streets. Yat Loy Co. carried on a dry goods business there for most of the twentieth century.1 The second store mentioned was Hungtai Co., begun even earlier at the northeast corner of Fort and Merchant Streets, where today stands the multi-storied Financial Plaza. In 1838, the store moved to a building called the "Pagoda" on Merchant Street, facing the harbor, between Fort Street and Bethel, then not yet opened as a street.2 The third store, Tyhune, also started before the mid-3os, was at the south- west corner of Hotel and Nuuanu Streets. It was marked merely as "Chinese store" on a map drawn by Alexander Simpson in 1843, during contentions over the land claims of Richard Charlton.3 During the period the Chinese stores were in business, Honolulu changed from a small village into a flourishing town with lumber yards, wharfs, streets, schools, and churches.

  • Princess Ka'iulani
    MARILYN STASSEN-MCLAUGHLIN Unlucky Star: Princess Ka'iulani PRINCESS KA'IULANI has long been an enigma. The familiar stories of her short life offer little to go on. Published picture books describe the happy child or dutiful teenager or attractive woman, and the oft- told tales become a bit more romanticized with each retelling. It is dif- ficult to see a real Princess Ka'iulani moving through her adolescence in Europe: first, aware of herself as a princess, focused on her educa- tion, trying to please others; then her struggle through sadness and disillusionment; and finally the reluctant and sometimes bitter accep- tance of her fate—a princess with no kingdom to rule. When we peel away the myth, we see Ka'iulani as a young woman forced to face dramatic changes in her short life because of repeated disappointments and thwarted expectations. Through her letters and the observations of others, Ka'iulani becomes a multifaceted woman —a flesh-and-blood person, not a wispy, gauze-like replication. Princess Victoria Kawekiu Ka'iulani Lunalilo Kalaninuiahilapalapa Cleghorn, only direct heir by birth to the Hawaiian throne, was born October 16, 1875, to the resounding peal of bells from every church in Honolulu.1 Daughter of Princess Likelike and businessman Archi- bald Scott Cleghorn, she was reared to be royalty. Her mother died when Ka'iulani was only eleven, and the future princess was doted upon by her father, her Uncle David Kalakaua, and numerous rela- tives. She grew up surrounded with the certainty that she could some Marilyn Stassen-McLaughlin is a retired Punahou teacher, tutor, and freelance writer who has had a continuing interest in Princess Ka'iulani and the 'Ainahau Estate for more than twenty years.

    Published online: 9 July 2020 ISSN (online): 2376-3191 Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey for 2019. Edited by Neal L. Evenhuis. Bishop Museum Occasional Papers 129: 1 –2 (2020) Twenty-Five Years of the Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey 1 NEAL L. E VENHUIS Hawaii Biological Survey, Bishop Museum, 1525 Bernice Street, Honolulu, Hawai‘i 96817-2704; email: [email protected] In 1992, the State of Hawaii designated the Hawaii Biological Survey (HBS) as a program of the Bishop Museum. The Survey is an ongoing natural history inventory of the Hawaiian Archipelago and was created to locate, identify, and evaluate all native and non- native species of flora and fauna within the state and maintain the reference collections of that flora and fauna for a wide range of uses. As the primary state repository for all spec - imens and objects, the Bishop Museum also maintains up-to-date databases of all groups of plants and animals that occur within the state boundaries. Additionally, as part of our effort in disseminating the latest information on updates to those databases, the Bishop Museum annually publishes the Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey . In 1995, we published the first of these Records (for the year 1994) in two volumes (Articles and Notes). Those first Records contained a total of 29 papers by 32 authors. Some 105 species of plants and animals were newly recorded for the State, including 3 new species-group taxa. The success of those first Records bade well for the ensuing years, in which numerous observations have been published by our many colleagues in Hawai‘i, the nation, and worldwide.
