LAMOILLE COUNTY FAIR.


Grounds in MOrrisville.
The 10Th annual exhibition of Lamoille
county farmers opened on the fair grounds
at Morrisvile on Wednesday Sept. >. 1t
being the day following the election, the
attendance was quite small. The day was
spent in viewing and arranging articles
and stock for exhibition. The fair being
held three weeks earlier than usual OF late
and the season being so backward made a
vast difference in the exhibition of all
agricultural products, 1t being ne
cessarily smaller than usual The
exhibition building was fairly well
filled but not as many entries as In past
years. The ladies ornamental needle aud
art work departments made very at

hibitiOn OF farm products in general. In
stock the several bloOds, in grades and
throughbreds are shown, in cattle, sheep
aud swine, and probably the largest entry
OF all classes Of horses ever made.
Thursday there was a large crowd upon
the grounds. The exhibition of brood

AFTERNOON SESSION.

The House re-opened at p. IN.
and resumed the discussion of the
veto message.
Noble Widemann said he had
listened to the remarks of the former
speakers, but did not agree with
them in some of the points they
brought up. The King cannot re-
turn a bill without his signature,
without giving his reasons for doing
so, because the Constitution pro-
vides that he shall do so. AS re-
preventative of the people he said
he was satisfied with the law as it
was. He believed that a minority
should be heard, and it can only be
done, by a veto by the King. l
shall have to vote no, in this mat
ter, if for nothing else than that /
believe that section II of the bill is
not military law, and consequently
cannot support it. l think that the
constitutional arguments brought
forward by the other speakers have
utterly failed.
Rep. Kamauoha spokea gainst the
bill and in support of the veto. AS
the bill did not conform to any
military laws of other nations, and
was also in many respects unconstl-
tutional, he should therefore vote to
sustain the veto.
Rep. Paehaole said the question
before the House was, are the rea-
sons given by the King for the veto
sufficient to sustain that act, or are
they not? He did not consider the
first four reasons set forth as good,
but the last three were. He then
analysed these three reasons, and
deduced the conclusion, that the
bill was unconstitutional inasmuch
as 1T gives the Command in Chief tc
the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and
the Constitution makes the King
Commander in Chief. lie also SAID
as a matter of economy, he could
not support the section of the bill
granting a salary to the Colonel.
Another objection which he
thought was a valid one was, that
the Kings guard has no voice in the
election of the Colonel. He also
said he did not believe in putting so
much power into the hands of one
man, as this bill gives the Minister
of Foreign Affairs. He should
therefore support the veto.
Rep. Kauhane said his opinion
was that those who supported this
veto, were in direct conflict with the
Kings best interests, and the inter
ests Of this kingdom.

REPORT OF COMMITTEES" '"'
Rep Paehaole reported from the
Education Committee to whom was
referred the petition to amend the
Sunday law, stating that the rules of
the House do not admit of another
bill of this nature being introduced
this session, as a former bill had
been indefinitely postponed. Adopt
ed.
He also reported from the same
Committee on the petition from
Honuaula praying that a school
house be built in that district. The
Committee finds that there are two
school houses in that district now,
and therefore recommend the matter
be referred to the Board of Educa-
tion, and the petition laid on the
table. Adopted.
Also from the same Committee on
petition to abolish tuition fees in
English schools, and reducing the
time of compulsory attendance at
school, recommending that the pray
ers be granted.
Noble Townsend reported from
the Education Committee on the bill
to amend section 20 of the Act 10
repeal chapter 10 of the Civil Code,
and to regulate the Bureau of Pub
lie Instruction, offering an amend
ment to the bill. The report was
accepted and laid on the table to be
considered with the bill.
Noble Baldwin reported from the
Finance Committee, on the condi-
ton and finances of all the depart
ments of the Government during
the last biennial period. AS this
was lengthy report it was not read
but referred to the Printing Com
mittee with Instructions to have it
printed.
Minister Thurston presented re-
port from the special committee to
whom were referred sections II and
13 of the pounds and estray bill,
recommending several amendments.
The report was accepted and laid on

bill.
Rep. Kalaukoa reported from the
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1888-07-30

Consideration of the veto message
vetoing the Military Bill.
The President asked shall this
bill become a law Notwithstanding
the veto of the King? on this ques-
tion the ayes and noes were called.
Minister Thurston said this was
by far the most important question
that had come before the House.
Each and every one of you will look
back to this time and see certain
things that will make an impression
on your mind. This country has
been making history rapidly of late,
and this circumstance will be re-
membered. The reasons the King
gave are entirely irrelevent to the
question, there is principal to-day
which we must assert or abandon;
it is, shall the people be governed
by one man on by themselves, this
is the principal that is to be decided.
The King should represent us only
as a figure head, the same as Queen
Victoria does. 1t is not an ignoble
position, but one of eXaltation, and
and an immense amount of good
could be done by him. l wish to
see an independent country and an
Independent King ruling over it.
The Supreme Court has ruled that
the King has the technical right to
veto. So has Queen Victoria, but
it should not be exercise. The legis-
lature has technical rights, one of
which is to cut off the Kings salary,
but would not that be revolution
airy act, so the King has technical
right to the veto but it should not
be exercised except by the advice of
his Cabinet. Although we admit
that the King has the technical, right
we do not admit that it should be
used without advice from his Cabi-
net. We may conceive case where
the King vetoes bill without the
advice of his Cabinet, but it would
be revolutionary, and ] say that the
Kings act to-day is revolutionary,
because ii is contrary to representa-
tive government. We have to de-
eide to-day what principal shall be
