for the purpose Of gaining informa-
ton. AS to the means proposed,
the same thing had been employed
with success in California. The en-
enlargement of tourist travel to the
islands should be promoted in
every possible way.
Rey. Paehaole supported the in
definite postponement. 1t was all
very we'll for the honorable Noble to
say lie did not like such treatment
OF bills, but the action of that gen.
tlcman and others on the fishery
bill yesterday was not yet cold.
Noble Macfarlane explained that
the fishery bill had been rejected
session after session.
Rep. Paehaolc took the honorable
Noble at his own word. The bill TO
encourage the Paradise of the Pacl.
fic had been rejected last session
after long fight.
Noble Mac'arlane wanted to be
understood. The fishery bill was
not thrown out till it had been 10 q
committee, and all he advocated
was that this bill should be COM
mitted.
Rep. Paehaole coniended that the
Paradise of the Pacific, with it's
twentyfour issues in two years,
was less valuable than the regular
newspapers in advertising the
country abroad.
Noble Won Tempsky called the
speaker TO order, rs he had spoken
fifteen minutes.
Noble Kauhane was in favor of
the bill being referred to commit
tee. lie thought it would have
been better If last Legislature had
given assistance 10 tins paper. Peo-
pie abroad were not too well inform
ed about this country. There had
been an increase OF tourist travel
the past two years. He had seen
the last two steamers come in with n
great many strangers, most of
whom were tourists who would
spend great deal of money in the
country.
Rep. Nawahi was still in favor of
his motion. 1t was not certain that
the increase in travel was due to
this paper. BY and 10y the Bulletin
would claim to have helped and ask
for a subsidy, Then Dan Lyons
would come along and ask for aid
for his paper, and even Mr.. Bush
himself might want subsidy.
Noble Mccarthy spoke of the
benefit of similar publications in
booming Southern California. The
publishers refused offers of adver-
tisemcnts of patent medicines every
mail, because their object was who'll
ly to advertise Hawaii. Although
he knew that three members Of the
Committee on Commerce were hos
tile to the bill. he was willing that
it should go before them for inves-
LEGATION.
Rep. Kauhi said the bill provided
| $500 q month out of the treasury TO
these publishers, and wanted to
know if the treasury woald get any
thing in return.
Noble Mccarthy said not at pre-
sent, but indirect benefits TO the
country were expected which would
repay the expenditure.
Rep. kauhi considered it q bad
bill, and it should be killed before
it did any harm. II parents saw a
centipede approaching child in 8
cradle, they would not wait till il
got at the child and bit it. Ii the
honorable Noble wanted to know
what harm was in the bill, let him
come TO his house and he would
give him something to listen to al
night.
Rep. Lucas thought it would moi
cost more if the bill was referred Il
a committee. He thought it was ,
good bill and it would be tim,
enough to throw it out after com
mittee reported on it. The com
mittee, if they saw fit, could reduce
the amount proposed. Ii the paper
would help out the Punchbowl ant
Volcano roads it would do good,
The ayes and noes were called OF
the motion to indefinitely postpon
the bill, with the following result
