Mr.. Kalua moved the resolution [
adopted He thought the interpreter wa
thehardest worked officer in the House.
was talking continually from the beginnin
OF a session 10 the end.
/. Mr.. Hayselden said the messenger an
( janitor had been paid at the same rate c
last session. If the pay per day was ri
! duced he did not see how those two officer
( would be able 10 refund anything
/ Mr.. Dole supported the resolution, as h
/ thought the pay would be very fair at s
( a day. 1t was sufficient for the worl
done.
Mr.. Richardson said he would supper
the resolution II the pay OF messenger wa
fixed at 81 per day.
Mr.. kaulukou moved 10 amend the reso
luton by making the pay of the interprete,
So day. Every member would appre
ciate the work done by that office. This
janitor had rather responsible position
as he had TO take care of the property OF
the Assembly. Some of the members went
away at times forgetting TO lock THEN
desks and the janitor was responsible
Each member was provided with spitoon
but some expectorated on the mating and
this had to be cleaned mp by the janitor.
Mr.. Dickey said that both the Secretary
and the committee on accounts had been
derelict in their duties. The secretary
ought not 10 have paid any money out I'M
til he knew the rate per day. Ii was a
piece of shiftlesSness.
Mr.. Keau spoke against the resolution.
On the question being put the resolution
was referred to a select committee.
ROAD NEEDING REPAIRS.
Mr. Nahinu presented a resolution that
the Minister of the Interior, as President
of the Board of Health, instruct the Road
Supervisor for the district of Honolulu to
fix the road leading to KakaakO from the
foot of Punchbowl street. The honorable
member said the late heavy rains had left
the road in a terribly bad condition, and
on account of the accumulation of rubbish
there was a very bad smell. A number of
wagons had attempted to pass along the
road, but had to give it up.
Mr.. Dickey asked Mr. Nahum if he had
notified the President of the Board of
Health as to the condition of the road.
Mr. Nahinu said the road was so bad
that wagon broke down there the other
day. The bad smells were too near the
Branch Hospital to be of any good.
His Excellency Mr.. Gibson said he
trusted the Assembly would pass the resO-
luton. He would regard it as an admoni-
tion to the Minister of the Interior and the
President of the Board of Health. If there
was money, and he continued to hold the
office of Minister of the Interior, he would
see that they had excellent macadamized
roads. The road leading to KakaakO was
a very pleasant one for a drive. 1t was
the intention of the Board of Health, with
regard to the bad smells, TO have them
remedied as soon as possible
Mr.. KaunamanO moved the resolution
be referred to road supervisor Hart.
Mr.. Dole moved the resolution be re-
turned to the introducer and he consult
with the Surveyor General about the road.
The President said it seemed TO him
that great deal of time had been wasted
in discussing this resolution.
Mr.. Richardson, to stop further discus
sion, moved the resolution he laid upon the
table. Agreed to.
