for the purposes of the Board of Education.

Mr.. Hitchcock moved to add to the bill an
item of $4,000 for a medical education in
foreign countries for Hawaiians.
Mr.. Koakanu objected TO the item. He
said that Hawaiian boys had been to Punahou
raaaiVa1 onnd adu ti.r but hid
done them no good, and under the tutorship
of Mr.. Cooke Kamehameha III. had been
educated. but what good had it done him. If
Hawaiians went away, they would get
wise that when they returned accomplished
doctors they would poison all their friends.
He said that the money had better be kept in
the country. lie moved to indefinitely post
pone the item.
Mr. Mahelona thought that the idea of edu-
eating Hawaiians in medicine was good one,
but be objected to sending people out Of the
country. Let the Minister Of the Interior, who
was good doctor. teach few boys. A school
could be established at the Insane Asylum.
Mr. Hitchcock amended his motion by strik-
ing out the words 4" in foreign countries
Mr.. Lyons said that he had for a long time
wanted to see medicine taught in this country,
and he would like to see teacher of that
branch of science added to the corps of teach
ers at Lahainaluna, or have it taught at Homo
lulu.
His Elk. F. W. Hutchinson objected to having
it taught here. 1t was an important subject,
and required many teachers. A scholar could
only receive a proper medical education by at
tending a regular college. In most parts of
England the course was FIVE years, and in the
United States generally three years. There
were thirteen different things TO be learned.
Item at 81, 900 passed.
Mr. Hitchcock moved that the Committee
the approval Of the report of the
Committee on petitions and resolutions on in
ternal improvements.
Mr.. Rhodes objected. He thought the items
should be taken separately.
MIR. Koakanu moved to reconsider the vote
on the item of s. 600 just passed. Carried.
His Elk. +. W. Hutchinson moved to strike
out the item.
Mr.. A. F. Judd objected. He thought that
it should be passed by ali means.
Mr.. Koakanu objected to the item, unless q
similar amount could be passed for instruction |
to the ancient Hawaiian Customs. |
He only went to Hawaiian doctors himself. |
That was the reason of his good health. Once |
in a while, however, he took small doses Of the |
Bible as prescribed by the Catholic Church.
The question was discussed irrelevantly at /
some length, and finally Mr.. Hitchcock re-
uewed his original motion foran item Of $4,000 /
to educate Hawaiian youths in medicine in /
foreign lands.
His Elk. C. de Varigny amended to insert /
a 600 for medical education Of Hawaiian chill 1
