Minister Brown - The hon. Noble
seems to forget that these appropriations
are all contingent We don't know
whether any of this can be spent. Ii
will depend on whether the receipts
from the Postal Savings Bank will be
sufficient. do not think they will
myself. do not think there is any use
in referring it to a committee.
Noble Isenberg-We have appropria
tons for roads and bridges in section !
for all the islands. therefore move t,
strike out all these items. ! don't think
we can afford to borrow SO much none,
just for the sake of having better roads
Rep. Lucas-I think it is very bae
policy to strike out anything of contin
gent fund. This money is only put her,
to be used in case of necessity. I thnl
the least We can do is to pass these item
as they are in the bill.
Minister Brown-All the expense
under section l must be met first Thes
are the luxuries. Section is what yo,
might call the luxurious portion of tn
bill.

parchment. He had only voted ths

| without careful consideration The

and now this was for the whole islands

J.. When we make these appropriations fo
Honolulu, we expect the same liber,

of people in Honolulu. The countr
wanted some return for it.
Rep. Robt. Wilcox was willing to Civ
