ing Iolani Palace.
Mr.. Havselden offered an amendment
to the first section by inserting the words
upon draft on the Minister of the In
terror"
Mr.. Brown opposed the amendment.
This was u bill to relieve the privy purse.
1t should be the sole province OF the Cham
berIain.
His Exeellency Mr.. Gibson said the ar
rangement would be satisfactory either
way. He did not recognize it as part OF
the privy purse expenditure, hut as public
expenditure

TAX RECEIPTS BILL.
Third reading of an Act relating to tax
receipts.
Mr. Brown moved the bill pass and that
the ayes and noes be taken.
Mr.. Kaulukou moved it be indefinitely
postponed.
Mr.. Thurston said he certainly hoped the
bill would not be killed, as no reason had
been given.
Mr.. Hayselden favored the motion to
indefinitely postpone. He was in favor OF
doing away with the tax receipts at cleo
tons, but there should be some way to
identify voters.
Hon Mr. Bishop hoped the bill would
pass They could try it and see how ii
works at the next election.
Mr.. Kaulukou said there had never been
anything wrong with the tax receipts until
the Planters Labor and Supply Company
was organized He was told that it spent
! 10000 in trying to control the election.
Mr.. ThurSton said that statement was
| false The company takes no interest in
! politics As Secretary of the Planters
| Labor and Supply Company he could say
! no money had been paid out, only for le-
| ultimate running expenses. Never before,
until the advent of His Excellency Mr..
| Gibson, had the civil service been so de-
| bauched. During the last election, boxes
! upon boxes of gin were sent to Kalawao
! and by the order of Mr.. Gibson.
Mr. Hayselden said that statement was q
| lie.
Mr.. Thurston said it was not lie.
Mr.. Hayselden said it was, and dared
Mr.. Thurston to prove it.
Mr.. Thurston said that with this inaugu-
ration of debauchery there had beer
| trouble He was in favor of this bill.
His Excellency Mr.. Gibson said that Mr.
Thurston had INDUCED in his usual style
| of conversation, which was slightly pro
| voking, and forced him to make a few re-
marks. Mr. Thurston had made a tota
denial of Mr.. Kaulukou's remarks abou
the Planters Company spending money
| for election purposes. He thought Mr.
| Kaulukou was referring to an item in tn
report of the Planters Company at tn
time w. o. Smith was Secretary, and which
read, Sundries, etc, $31 600" These
| funds were employed to influence planta
tons in the elections. Mr.. Thurston coulC
not be content until he had dragged

INSULTING and scurrIlO-z5 for Irrigation or Q
worthy OF an honorable menIt.55ee, cele-
worthy of common street brawler An
honorable member should never arise 70
make an assertion without he had EVIL
dence to prove it. He (the speaker) would
simply say with regard to his AUTHORIZING
the sending of ardent spirits to Mololzai
That 1t was utterly false. There had been
a man who charged the Board of Health |
with something of the kind. Mr.. Thurston |
should have evidence to prove that he (tba |
speaker was the one that took the matter
in hand
MT lhurSton said that a man told the
Assistant Superintendent at KaIawao NJ
that he had brought up three
'ases of gin by order of Mr.. Gibson.
His EXcellency Mr. Gibson said that tho
nan made no such statement. and Mr.
-hurston was nothing more than a scur-
ilous falsifier
Mr.. ThurSton called the Minister 10
rider. If he called him falsifer he (tbe
peaker) would call the Minister a liar.
His EXcellency Mr., Gibson said Mr.
hurston was indulging in rant and sour
lous defamation without any proof what f
yer. He should not arraign anyone with +
1t he had absolute proof.
Mr.. Fhurston said he had absolute proof
Mr. kaulukou thought that Mr.. Thurs !"
n should not interrupt the Minister. )
His Exceliency Mr. Gibson said that dpr-
g the session Mr.. Thurston had made 81
nseIt sufficiently conspicuous to be re- u
rded as unworthy of being called a gen
man. A
Mr.. Kaulukou moved the previous ques-
Il.
