THB LEGISLATURE.
r1FTY-sEcoND DAY-coNrINuED.
FRIDAY. July 2nd.

FRIDAY, July 2nd.
Rep. Dole said he would accept
the denial. The statement in the
resolution was not as full as the ru-
mors, which were that Mr.. Spreckels |
was negotiating for the lease of their
harbor for 80 years. He might be
charged with want of intelligence
for listening to these things, but one
of the most intelligent men in the
city spoke to him this very day
about that lease of the harbor for 80
years. 1t seemed to him an almost
incredible thing that Mr.. Spreckels
would press for any such thing, but
the old saying was where there
was q great deal of smoke there must
be little fire. Therefore he could
see no objection to their passing this
resolution. Certainly, after the re-
marks of His Excellency, he could
see no reason why reply should
not be made instantly.
Rep. Kaulukou thought the motives
of the hon. member for Lahaina
might be very good, but he agreed
with the member for Lihue that the
resolution was incomplete. 1t ap-
peared the name of Spreckels was
great bugbear, the mention of which
was as the mention of some evil
spirit. Everybody seemed to be
afraid of Mr.. Spreckels, and to re-
gard him as having a large mouth
that gobbled up everything.
Rep. Dickey-lle has long
head.
Rep. Kaulukou thought the two
principal planks of the so.called in
dependent party at the last election
was the bad qualities of Mr.. Spreck
els and the bad qualities of Mr..
Gibson. A good deal of this, he
thought, was due to jealousy. Those
who talked that way only wanted to
get the financial business into the
hands of the Noble on the other
side MIR. Bishop and his friends.
Once the Government of which the
hon. Noble was q member loaned
Bishops Bank $3.50, 900 at six per-
cent, to get that concern and its
dependents out of difficulties, but
when the Government was in diff
culties that bank only helped it by
loaning it money for which nine per-
cent was charged.
Rep. Kalua raised the point of
order that the hon. member was not
speaking on the resolution.
The President ruled that both
sides having departed from the
resolution. the hon. member was not
out of order.
Rep. Thurston said that was a
different ruling from that made
against him the other day.
Noble Bishop said the hon. men,
Der was making untrue statements
about matter not before the house.
The President stated that the hon.
member had no right to make un-
true statements. The member for
Lihue had spoken of rumors that he
had heard, therefore the chair re-
garded as really out of order n
great deal of the remarks.
Rep. Brown wished, whenever the
President saw member out of or
der, he would call him to order.
Rep. Aholo said the President bat
so many instructors, he though
they had better take recess, ant
moved to adjourn till 1:3O, whicl
carried, at 12: 10.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
Rep. Kaulukou, on the house re
suming, said that IN his remarks pre-
G vious to recess he had made a state
y ment regarding Bishop & Co.
! bank, which the hon. Noble Bisho
. said was not true. If he 9th
l speaker) had been misinformed, h
: would withdraw the statement. II
It ought to have stated the amount @
n interest paid by Bishop & Co. at
= percent instead of percent. II
thought sufficient time had bee
u taken up in discussing the resoll
q ton, and therefore moved the orde
= of the day, which carried.
t. ORDER OF THE DAY.
u: Consideration of the tax bill
,f committee of the whole.
Minister Dare said that the la'
! Minister of Finance appointed I'll
y Tax Assessors, and they had take
e. the field and were practically
D. work. If any law relating to tax
o. were enacted, it could not go in
- effect until the beginning of Il
. fiscal year of 1887. He thought Il
IN tax bill was second to none 9th
Iy in Importance, yet for the reaso
n stated it might give way to 9th
i, bills of Importance. He thereto
- moved that the consideration of t
n tax bill be deferred to Tuesday.

RS have to go into committee before
