The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1886-07-20

MONDAY, July 10th.
Hon. Mr.. Bishop, from the Com
mittee on Education, presented the
following report:
Hon. J. s. Walker, President
Legislative Assembly-Sir: The
Committee on Education, to whom
was referred an Act ''to provide for
the appointment of Hawaiian youths
in the Bureau of Government" in
troduced by the Hon. Jesse Amara,
have considered the said Act and re-
port as follows: The work
now being done in the Bureau
of Surveying is important
and often difficult, requiring the
greatest care and exactitude, in
which inexperienced young men
could not be entrusted to take
part. The Surveyor General and
his assistants could not give their
time to instructing youths without
detriment to the work which is now
pressing upon them, and unem-
ployed young men in such an office
would be an annoyance to those who
might be at work, and their
idleness would be damaging to
themselves. The Surveyor Cen
eral is quite disposed to employ
home talent in preference to send
ing abroad for strangers of whose
qualifications and fitness he has no
guaranty; and if the right kind of
young Hawaiians can be found to
work in the office or in the field, no
doubt he will give them a chance,
and no special law is required to
authorize him or the Minister of the
Interior to do so. Young men
who wish to become tirst-class sur
veyors should not only learn the
higher mathematics in school, but
should there study surveying also,
and then if they are ambitious and
conscientious they will be secure Of
employment. Believing the pro-
posed Act to be impracticable and
unnecessary, we recommend the
Assembly to lay it upon the table.

The report Of the committee, on
motion of Hon. Mr.. Cleghon, was
adopted.
Rep. Pahia, on suspension of the
rules read q report signed by six
members of the committee of thir-
teen on the Police of the Kingdom.
Rep. Brown said the report just
read had been handed to him just as
it was about to be presented. Had
attended no meetings of the COM
mittee as he never had received any
notification of the meetings. He
observed that the committee had
added $40, $40 to the amount asked
for by the Attorney-General, and
submitted in the Appropriation
Bill. The total sum asked was
| SLIT 1922, while the committees re-
port asks for $218,3 800. He objected
to the manner in which the pay of
sheriffs and deputy sheriffs, in the
Island of Oahu is proposed to be
distributed, and showed that the
pay of deputy sheriffs and police is
out of proportion to the population
and extent If districts. He disap-
proved of the house saying what each
policeman shall receive. That mat
ter should be settled by the Marshal
and Deputy Marshal.
Rep. Dole said the honorable
member for Koolauloa was more for
tunate than he had been, for the re-
port had not even been shown to
him. He noticed that the commit
tee had gone over to the appropriation
bill of last session, and whenever a
member of this Assembly was found
to be deputy-sheriff, his pay was
increased.
Rep. Dickey said he had received
notice of only one meeting of COM
mittee, when the matter referring to
William Tell was under considera-
ton, and called attention to the fact
that the report before the house was
but minority report, being signed
by only six out of thirteen members.
Rep. Keau was in favor of receiv.
ing the report and laying it on the
table. A motion to lay on the table
was carried.
