Board of Health. 1t has always been
to wait for reports and until
petition had come in from the !epers
move that the resolution
be laid on the table for the time being,
until the reports. petitions, ETC.. are
brought in. Carried, and resolution was
laid on the table.
Rep. Robt. Wilcox presents the follow.
ing questions: /. Why is q company OF
the Volunteers separated from the rest
of the force, and allowed to be housed IN
private house at private expenseF =.
What object is there In it? 8. VINO Is u
that sanctions this unaccountable move
ment of the military?
Minister Ashford states that he is not
quite prepared to answer the questions OF
Noble Muller. He is waiting for report
from the Marshal who was yesterday TOO
busy with the opium committee to attend
to the matter Hopes to be able to an.
swer tomorrow and asks indulgence OF
the House. Granted.
Rep. Kalua presents the following re-
solution: Resolved, that His Elk. the
Minister of Foreign Affairs, lay before
this House the Report of the Colonel OF
Volunteers. He says in support OF the
Affairs speaks of the Volunteers in gem
eral terms. We know we have q Colonel
of Volunteers when we have been paying
500 q month, and he ought to do some
thing for his pay.
Minister Thurston says it has been
customary for the committees to do all
work of this kind. It is their business
to make all investigations of this kind
and obtain all necessary documents. If
they could not obtain them, then they
laid the matter before the House. This
matter and the bills with regard to the
military belong to the Military commit
tee. All these resolutions are simply
taking the work of the committee out Of
their hands. / therefore move that the
resolution be laid upon the table until
the Military committee has had chance
| to find out whether anything of the sort
| is necessary or not. These resolutions
are open to precisely the same objection
which the honorable member just made
against the resolution to send a commit
tee to Molokai. They are premature.
Rep. Kalua made q variety of remarks
| which were outof order. While he was
still on his feet, the President put the
| motion, and it was carried.

steam railroads on Oahu.
Minister Thurston moved that this bill
be referred to special railroad commit
tee to be appointed to consider this an,
: other railroad bills. That is what wa
done at the last session. A committe
!, should be appointed especially compe
tent to deal with this subject, and as
. affected the Government 80 deeply, h
thought q member of the Cabinet shout
be on that committee.
Noble Widemann said that the othe
, side had always objected to the appoint
ment of special committees in order &
save time. . In accordance with tina
argument, he would move it be referre,
!, to the Committee on Public Lands.
!, Minister Ashford said the Publ
Lands Committee was a good one, bu
from his experience at the time last SEE
sion (when he, the speaker, and Nobl
, Widemann were both members of
select committee on the same subject,
, he was led to believe that reference to
select committee was the best course
He thought Noble Horner, the introduce
, Of the bill, ought to be on the committe
!, and also member of the Cabinet.
Noble Widemann said he had no
made his motion with view to hayin
) it carried, but merely to show the othe
side the prepoeterousness of some of tn
, arguments which they advance here. III
would withdraw his motion.
The motion to refer it to select com
; mittee was carried and the appointment
:: Of the committee deferred.
