The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1886-08-24

provides, which sum OF one thou
sand dollars for each round trip, we
consider TO be fully as large as this
country is justified in giving for a
bi-monthly service, and to be
sufficient amount in the way of as
sistance, from the standpoint of the
said company judging from the
above proposition of Mr.. Spreckels.
The minority of the committee
therefore recommend that the said
bill be so amended as to subsidize a
service between Honolulu and San
Francisco once every four weeks
with the sailing days fixed halfway
between the sailing days Of the
through line: or else that the sub
sidy be fixed at one thousand dol
lars round trip for bi-monthly
line. $. b. DOLE.

RESOLUTIONS.
Rep. Dole read n first time an act
to amend sec. 1, chap. 45, laws of
| 1884, to facilitate the acquiring and
settlement of homesteads.
Rep. kaulukou presented a reso-
luton for an appropriation of
Sl23S.69, for the payment of certain
bills rendered by B. B. Macy for
work done on bridges, etc.
Rep. Brown moved the resolution
be referred to the Committee on
Public Lands and Internal Improve
ments, for examination of the bills
annexed.
Rep. Thurston moved that it be
referred to the Minister of the In
terror. as were certain other road
and bridge claims.
Rep. Kauluiou said those cases
were not similar, as in this case the
claimant was in town pressing his
claim.
Minister Gibson read letter from
Mr.. Macy, stating the position of
the claim. He assured the house
that he had not neglected the ac-
count. although it was long-stand-
ING one, and seconded the amend
ment, promising the introducer of
the resolution every information in
his power.
Rep. Kaunamano was in favor of
referring the matter to committee
and not to the Minister, because
there was dispute between the
claimant and the Department.
Rep. Castle thought the proper
course was to refer the resolution to
committee. They were getting into
loose way of doing business, re-
ferring matters in dispute to Minis
ters-probably because the latter
had seats in the house. The com
mittee could investigate the matter
thoroughly, and if the claim was
found just a special appropriation
should be made.
Referred to committee.
Rep. Kaunamano moved that all
other petitions or resolutions, respec-
ting road and bridge claims, be
taken from the table and referred
to the same committee. Carried.
