THIRTY-NINTH DAY.
THURSDAY, June 18th.

THURSDAY, June 18th,
The Assembly was opened with
prayer by the Chaplain at 10 A. NJ.
Present: Hon. ]. s. Walker, Presi-
dent; Mobiles Dowsett, Kaae and
Kuihelani; Reps. Hayselden, Keau,
Lilikalani, Baker, Kauhi, Amara,
Brown, Kaulia, Kaulukou, Pahis,
Kaunamano, Wight, Nahale, Ma
hinu, Kekoa, Kalua, Aholo, Kau-
kau, Richardson, Ksai, Thurston,
Paehaole, Kauai and Palohau. The
minutes of last meeting were read
and confirmed.
PETITIONS.
Rep. Keau, on suspension of the
rules, presented two petitions from
Honolulu. The first, with 100 sig
natures, prayed that the sale OF
opium be licensed, because it was
being sold now illegally and the use
of it was increasing. The second,
with 1870 signatures, asked for a law
to prohibit foreign laborers from
being employed on the wharves. On
motion of the introducer, the first
was laid on the table to be con-
sidered with a bill given notice Of,
and the second likewise, to be CON-
sidered with a bill to be introduced
by him.

The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1886-06-17

Rep. Kalua moved that the Min
ister's reply be received and laid on
the table. There was no document
ary evidence that Meyers was a
Hawaiian subject, or that he had
taken the oath of allegiance.
Rep. Kaulukou moved in amend
ment that the report be adopted.
The Minister OF Interior had no
right to go to the Foreign Office for
information. The Minister had
complied with the resolution as far
as it was possible for him to do so.
If any further information was de-
sired, a new resolution, addressed to
the Minister of Foreign Affairs,
would have to be introduced.
Rep, Palohau supported the mo-
ton to lay on the table. He under
stood that the resolution requested
the Minister to state the date when
he became a Hawaiian subject,
according to the laws Of this King
dom requiring that any person hold
ing office must be subject, The
Minister believed this officer was a
subject, but did not know the exact
date when he became one. He did
not believe it was necessary for him
to go 10 the Foreign Office for in
formation.
Rep. Aholo did not think il made
any difference whether the report
was adopted or laid on the table.
When q man takes the oath of allie
glance he goes before the Minister
of Interior, but when letters of deni-
zation are granted the matter per-
tains to the Foreign Office. He be-
lieved it was better to lay on The
table, and the information desired
could be asked from the Minister OF
Foreign Affairs.
The motion was carried.
Rep. Kaulukou objected that the
amendment should have been put
first, but the President overruled

The NIayGower's Day.

1t was comparatively easy per-
Torrance for the MayAower Tuesday.
From start to finish she kept the lead
and crossed the line a good two miles
and half ahead OF her English COM
petitor
1t was a contest between Yankee
sloop and English cutter. The wind
was light 1t filled the sails OF the
Mayfower and carried her over the
water like bird. 1t was hardly
enough to lift the heavy cutter over
the course. The yachtsmen all agree
that the Galatea needs a stiff breeze.
Lieut.. Hem probably has made the
discovery that we mean to keep that
American Cup on this side OF the wa,
ter, if such a thing is possible.

One OF the new clerks in the Phila-
delphia Post-Office forgot the combi-
nation with which he locked the big
safe, and the door was drilled open.
The Republicans, who are laughing at
the mishap, need not be reminded
that their placemen never forgot any
combination that gave them access to
the public money, as the increase of
more than $100,000000 in the nation

antly proves,-N. Y. World.
