KEEP. IaendOle Sdlu G1dG III the OISCuSSIOn
of this question i'll 1887, much had been
said about Governor Dominis's long period
of service. He had presented a petition
on behalf of Daniel Napela, an aged teacher
who had served the public we'll and faith
fully in his line, for 81 years. Members
were opposed to that petition, as they said
on the principle of the thing. The prinCi-
pie they maintained then, they are against
now. He could not see the justice of vot
ing a permanent settlement to Governor
kNr,IR,
man and refusing it to Napela on the
ground of his being a native.
Noble Smith said If Napeia was the huS-
band of the Heir Apparent, he would pro-
badly vote for his receiving pension.
Governor Dominis had suffered greatly
from illness. 1t would be discreditable to
the country if he were reduced to beggary
because of his physical inhrmities
The ayes and noes were taken on the
motion to strike out, as follows:
