The Hawaiian gazette., 1870-07-20

| Wooien mil called upon him LOT DISCUSSION, ana
they had debated the subject pretty thoroughly. Ii
was certain he had said that wool would not be i'm
ported from foreign countries, mandatory
have to depend upon domestic produce, and the
growers would probably demand ruinously high
prices. The Bill could do possible harm and il
might do good therefore he supported its passage.
Mr.. Lyons somewhat doubted the good Of the
Bill as the bonus had been lowered to g, 1000. He
had but little hope at any rate for home industry
$4,000 was voted for foreign steamers, &c, what
was that but protection. He thought that our home
industries should have some good support. There
difficulties iG the way of the establishment Of
these mills, the distance fron iron manufactures,
for machinery, aud the cost Of labor, &c. He hoped
that the Bill would pass in some form other.
His Ex Mr.. Smith supported the passage of this
Bill as had been shown by his vote on Mr.. Bishops
amendment The Act included both protection and
bonus for work 1t had been shown in the case OF
sugar, that aid and protection there had resulted in
the starting of many plantations it might prove SO
in this case it was worth trying He had estimates
in regard to the setting up of MILL the cost would
be about $4,000, on which release of duty would
contribute s. 00O with other things rents bonus &C.
would bring il to abouts7, 900. which he thought
was sufficient aid from Government. As amended

Next on the orders was Act to provide the
| licensing the carriage of firearms.
Mr.. Lyons moved to indefinitely postpone further
consideration of the Bill.
His Ex. Mr.Hutchison stated that the object of
the Bill was the protection of foreign birds intro
dueed, he reiterated very strongly his former re-
marks on the subject. He amended Section 1st 10
read that the Minister of Interior should have pow
er to grant licenses carry firearms for the space
of one year. in the District of Honolulu for IS.
Mr. Lyons stated that he was opposed to the Bin
on account of its Sweeping provisions, all carrying
of whatever fire was made a criminal offence.
Minister of Interior stated that he was perfectly
willing to accept any amendment that would refer
| to the making a criminal act of carrying arms,
unlicensed to shoot birds Such an amendment was
was lost, and the Bill with amendment was ordered
to engrossment. House adjourned.

The Bill was read its nature being to enforce the
carrying of lepers all Hawaiian coasting vessels
on pain of losing their licenses
Mr.. Kaiue moved indefinite postponement of
further consideration.
His Ex., Mr. Smith, moved to order to engross-
ment.
The Bill met with very strong opposition on the
part of some of the members, their ground being
that it would be outrage to force the epeIs into
vessels crowded with passengers, thereby endanger
ing their health and lives.
His Ex, Mr. Hutchison, defended the passage Of
the Bill, and showed very clearly the absurdity of
the objections advanced by the opposition, as all
coasters now carried, with perfect indifference, both
the sick and the weil-lepers and those far from the
disease. He introduced the Bill SO that no vessel
could object or refuse 10 carry them, and If the
House declined to pass it, they would have to vote
for special vessel.
