Minister Gibson said he must
decide by q new rule.


Rep. Dole said he thought the
remarks of His Excellency were
admirable till he came to the last
sentence. Literally he did not be-
lieve his ears till he found he was
supported by his hon. friend, the
member for Moloka. For instance,
the first rule of the house required
that the journal of proceedings had
to be read. Let them imagine that
the Clerk read 1t, and then that the
Interpreter refused TO read it in
Hawaiian. Under the explanation
of the Minister of Foreign Affairs
the President could not get out of
the difficulty at all. In case of dis
turbance or disorderly conduct the
President had the right to clear the
house of all persons except mem
bers, but the rule did not define
how he was to do it. He hoped
they should not hear such an insane
remark for the rest of the session.
All knew that points arose in every
deliberative assembly for which
there was no rule, and which must
he decided by the President. If
there was no demand for the prac-
tice of common sense, justice and
propriety, they might dispense with
the President and simply lay the
rules on the desk. He was sorry to
have it go to the world that the
practice of common sense was to be
dispensed with in this Assembly.
Rep. Hayselden asked what the
ruling was.
The President repeated his main
decision, that the motion of the hon.
member for Honolulu was out of
order except the report was tran
slated.
The question was put, when the
chair was sustained by % to 8.
The President was about to put
the main question, to lay the report
on the table, when .
Rep. Keau objected that, accord
ing to the ruling, the paper was not
report at all until IL was translated.
The point was over-ruled, and the
motion carried by % to z.
RESOLUTIONS.
Rep. Dickey read first time an
act TO amend chap. G, laws of 1878,
relative to the sale of ava.
Rep. Aholo presented a resolution
for an appropriation of 81 900 for
building school houses at Kaluaaha,
and another for the same amount
for similar purpose at Haawa,
Molokai. After remarks in favor of
the resolutions by Rep. Paehaole,
they were referred to the special
committee on certain items in the
Board of Education appropriations.
Rep. Aholo read first time an
act to authorize tax assessors to give
receipts for taxes to any person pay
ing when the taxes are assessed. On
motion of Minister Kapena, the
rules were suspended and the Till
read second time by its title, and
referred TO the special committee On
taxation laws.
Rep. Dickey gave notice of a
resolution to make q new rule, re-
curing two-thirds vote to carry
the previous question.
On motion of Rep. Keau, the
house took recess from II to l 80
O'Clock.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
Minister Gulick, on suspension OF
the rules, presented II report of the
Fire Limits Committee on the act 10
prevent instructions on the streets
of Honolulu, Lahaina, Wnluku, Hilo
and Kahului, recommending its
passage with certain amendments, To
one of which the Minister, chairman
of committee, took exception. The
report was laid on the table TO be
considered with the bill.
Minister Gulick also presented
the following report from the same
committee
Hon. Us. WALKER, President Legis-
la'ive Assembly:
iSir:-The select committee to
which was referred various bills,
among others "An Act to amend
section 191 of the Civil Code" re-
specially beg leave to report upon
said bill as follows, to wit: The
committee have carefully considered
this bill, recognising the fact that if
it should become law, it will initiate
a most important change in our sys-
TEN. At the present time mort
cages properly recorded constitute
the only lien on property recognized
by our law. This bill provides that
unpaid water rates shall become q
lien upon the premises supplied with
water in any particular instance.
After due consideration, the COM
mittee are of opinion that the sys-
TEN, with regard to dues to the
Government for water supply is a
proper one, and recommend that it
be adopted. The bill hereby re-
ported upon, the committee found
to be so brief as not to fully cover
the requirement of the case. They
have therefore prepared another bill,
which is herewith submitted, en-
titled "An Act to amend section l91
of the Civil Code, and to regulate
the Government water supply" the
nassnUe of which ia hereby rpcom-
