PETITIONS.

PETITIONS.
Rep. Kalua on suspension of the
rules, presented petition from Ma
kawao, against changing the place
of holding courts from Makawao to
Paia. Laid on the table.
Rep. Kaulukou presented petit
ton from w. Fehlbehr, stating that
2,400 was voted for white police
captain in 1884, that he was the
officer in question and had received
S2,26O, and praying that the balance
of $240 be paid to him.
Rep. Brown, in discussion on
the disposal of the petition, said
this was one result of the house vot-
ing pay of the police. The petitioner
and Wm.. Tell, who formerly petit
toned for similar balance, had been
apportioned $50 a month by the De-
putty Marshal, and it was impudent
on their part to come into the house
and ask for more. The Marshal or
Attorney General should dismiss
them.
Rep. Keau said there was no
agreement. The Legislature had
appropriated the money. The
men considered it belonged to them,
and there was no impudence in
their asking for it.
Rep. Kalua said the men should
apply to the Marshal or the Attorney
General and not to this house. The
house had appropriated the money
and it was all gone. Neither the
house nor the public owed those men
any money. Ifanyone owed it, one
of their superiors must be the party.
The Tell petition had been rushed
through and favorably reported on
by the committee of thirteen. This
one should bereferred to the Finance
Committee. There were no captains
of police mentioned in the law. 1t
was title assumed by the men
themselves.
Rep. Aholo was in favor of re-
ference to a committee, but not to
the committee of thirteen, as that
was too cumbersome body and had
difficulty in obtaining majority
meeting. The Finance Committee
had enough TO do already and its
chairman belonged to the Committee
of thirteen, another objection. He
thought it should go to the Judiciary
Committee.
The petition was referred to the
Judiciary Committee.
Rep. Hayselden presented the
following report from the Finance
Committee on items of the Appro.
priation Bill
