Mr.. Dole moved the salary be fixed at
5000. There was no question about "a
doctor being needed at Lahaina. With re-
gard to the skin OF this doctor he had
nothing TO do with it.. The Minister Of the
Interior and Mr.. Kalua had never CON
suited Or. Kuehn and were speaking from
hearsay evidence. Re had heard consid-
cradle himself which agreed with what Mr..
Kalua had said, but be could not rely on
it. a large wealthy plantation at La
haina ought 10 assume some Of the pay Of
the doctor.
Mr.. Hayselden supported $1,000, but
thought that was not enough. The plan
tation spoken OF by Mr. Dole does not
support the doctor-it is too mean II
wll not give him enough for his medicine
When Bfr. Turton had the plantation he
supported the doctor literally Olowalu
plantation pays the doctor 800 and finds
the medicine. Labaina plantation offered
800, the doctor to find the medicine, there
being twice as many hands at the latter
place than at Olowaiu. The doctor re-
fused the offer. lie (the speaker) was re-
ferring to Mr.. Horner's plantation. All
that the doctor has to depend on is Olo-
in Lahaina. and all Hawaiians claim tree
medical attendance.
Mr.. AholO supported 1900. He went
to this doctor when he was i'll, but he did
not give him salts. The wife of one of the
MOBILES of this House when sick went to
this same doctor and he cured her, but
not with salts. People go to him and ask
for box of pills He tells them that they
cannot have them until he finds out what
their trouble IS. They go away and say he
IS no good just because he would not give
the pills. With regard TO the flies, it
shows he goes inside the natives houses.
They have had doctors who went within
fifty or sixty feet of house and called out
to the occupants to hold their tongues out
The Doctors chief sin is that he took
little interest in the election, but that does
not affect his skill. The large plantation
at Lahaina feels little sore about the
election-that is the great trouble In
matters pertaining to public health they
ought to make regular appropriations.
Mr.. Dickey was in favor OF So 600 They
had kept the pay up in other places, and
1t would not be fair to drop it here. The
doctor at Lahaina has a long district, and
has also to go to Lanai. He did not be-
lieve in personalities. If the doctor was
not competent, it was for the Board of
Health to turn him out
The item passed at $1,000.
The Chairman stated that he ought to
have put stop to personalities when they
began. Hereafter he should draw the
line.
Salary of physician, Wailuku, $4,000.
Mr.. Kalua moved it pass at 81 900.
Mr.. Dole said $1,000 was too much
Wailuku was place where doctor could
make living without a salary. If it was
not for the hospital, they should give the !
smallest salary in the group.
His Excellency Mr. Gibson said the es-
Enlistment of the hospital had not in
volved the work it was at first thought !
it would, and he thought~$3 900 was suf- |
ficient
Mr.. Dickey said it was very important to |
have a first-class doctor at Wailuku The |
hospital was grand institution, and he |
would like to see others at different places.
It had been the means of saving many |
lives that would have been lost.
The item passed at $4,000.
