THE HAWAIIAN BELL TELEPHONE
COMPANY

Met at half past twelve to-day, 920
out of 1000 shares being repre-
sented.
Mr.. E. p. Adams stated that they
had met to consider proposal from
the Mutual Co.
Mr.. w. o. Smith thought their
proposal was unreasonable. What
would benefit one would benefit all
he recognized that no good could be
attained by the establishment of two
companies. Their idea of making
no money was too thin. The objects
of the HI. b. Co. were not extortion,
and the rates were now as low as
they could be put. The III. b. Co.
had been started by the same men
who were now starting the Mutual,
why hadn't they declared a dividend.
Their earnings for two years had
been absorbed in material and per-
fecting their lines, and their property
was now worth 100000. The Mu-
tual Co. did not make a sound bust
ness proposition and he objected to
the II. b. Co. giving way.
Mr.. j. II. Brown thought that the
proposition of MIR. Davies was a
good one and showed good spirit.
Mr.. E. p. Adams felt sure they
would lose many subscribers who
had telephones in their private
houses, if the treaty we're not con-
tinued, he would have to give it up.
1t was not right or just that the
owner of one share should have the
power to defy the rest,
Mr.. Cecil Brown said the Mutual
Co. had to increase its capital; they
had $4,000 worth of material, had
to pay freight and Mr.. Widemann's
expenses. The lot cost 10000 and
was in Mr.. Cartwright's name and
did not yet belong to the Mutual Co.
They had no poles or lines up and
only capital of 100000. He adj
vocated the withdrawal of their
propositions, and eventually the Mu-
tual Co. would ask to be, taken over
to the fold of the H. B Co.
Mr.. w. o. Smith explained that
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1884-04-09

the chief stockholder in the II. B.
Co. was gentleman well known us
q business man. They had not acted
unreasonably but had hitherto ac-
ceded to all the terms of the Mutual
Co.
Mr.. Cassidy said the instruments
of the new company had been out of
use in America for two years and
were of the poorest construction.
Their cable was of no use to the II.
b. Co. and would only last for q
couple of years. For $1,000 the II.
B. Co. could obtain all the best ma
terial they needed. There was not
q line now out of order, and Diamond
Head line, where out of repair, was
not in their control.
Mr.. Cecil Brown moved and Mr..
w. O. Smith seconded the following
resolution which was carried unani-
mously;
Resolution. 1t is hereby resolved
that the Hawaiian Bell Telephone
Co., through its secretary, notify
the Mutual Telephone Co. that il
cannot accede to nor accept the pro-
position submitted by communica-
ton dated April 7th 1884, and fur
ther to notify the Mutual Telephone
Co, that the Hawaiian Bell Telephone
Co. withdraws its proposition OF
April 2nd 1884.

JAMAICA's POLITICAL CONSTITUTION

In addition to its exodus Of work
ing men, Jamaica is possessed with
another trouble. Lord Derby had
proposed "changc in the political
constitution of the island," which
did not accord with the views Of the
Colonists. He recommended the con-
stitution of British Guiana which
was held up as "a model for it's
morality" Lord Derby's selection
was unfortunate, for, the number of
convictions in British Guiana, during
a period of four years, was "from
5! up to - per cent" of the popu-
lation, while in Jamaica it had only
been "from Il to 2 per cent.
Several large and enthusiastic pub
lie meetings have been held recently
at Kingston and the following is one
of the resolutions that was adopted: {:
That this Meeting protests
against the change in the Political
Constitution of this Island, as pro-
posed in Lord Derby's dispatches
dated the 1st December 1888, on
| the ground that, Notwithstanding the
liberal sentiments expressed by Lord
Derby to deputation in November
last and enunciated in those des-
patches, the "despotic" power Of
Crown Government will not be re-
moved; nor will the people of this
island obtain "a substantial power
in matters of finance,'' or san effec-
tive part through their elected repre-
sentatives in managing its affairs. -
On the contrary, the Government
and Legislature will continue to con-
sist of a single Chamber, presided
over by the Governor, with an Off
cial majority, who, as the late un-
official members truly affirmed when
retiring from the Council, will be
compelled to vote as his Excellency
may command, whether they "shall
believe such command to be in ac-
cordance with the dictates of reason
and conscience, justice and truth, OF
not. F" In matters of general Legis-
lation and Cover nment, the Elective
Minority will possess no power at
all; and in matters of Finance, the
power professed to be given to them
will be so fettered, that it can at any
moment be overridden by the Gov
ernor. This Meeting declares, that
the Governors presence and power
in the Council, have been in the
past, and will be in the future, un-
duly restrictive of the freedom OF
debate; and that nine Elective Mem
bers will be numerically inadequate
to represent the various interests OF
the Island and in view of the fact
that the Crown still retains exclusive
privilege to initiate finance, as well
as the prerogative of veto, this meet
ing hereby records its emphatic pro-
test against the Crown also pos
sessing power to usurp at pleasure
that control over taxation and ex-
penditure, which ought only to be
exercised by the Representatives OF
| tha PnOnIa -
