US TO send our cattle there and sell at
decent profit TO the rancher, and encour-
age breeding in this country. The ex-
ports from Tahiti are So 900. The trade
could be largely increased by this COM
munication. | move the bill pass.
Noble J. NJ Horner-I 90 in for i'm
provements, but have TO be convinced
they are such. There is nothing raised
in Tahiti that we want here. We don't
want bananas or cocoanuts-we have
plenty all around us. | cannot see that
this communication would be any benefit
whatever TO the islands.
Noble Widemann-When the San
Diego subsidy was up, Noble Horner was
full of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. with it
To-day he is all dried mp. The French
Government want that steamer, and
they offer $1,000 month, but our giving
$1,000 a month is out of proportion. All
We could send there would be few head
OF cattle. In Papeete, where the French
Government is, they use three head of
cattle week.
Noble Cornwell-T think it wise
policy TO open steam communication
with any country. | believe the line to
Tahiti will be good thing. | move the
bill be considered section by section.
Noble Macfarlane-There appears TO
be a disposition on the part of some
members to vote for this subsidy be-
cause of the defeat of the San Diego SUBJ
sidy. Opposition to that line should
have nothing to do with this subsidy.
The Hilo trade could not support &c 0
ton boats. Livingstone, Clark 4 Co.
have not made a single contract either
| at Hilo, Mahukona or Honolulu Where
ever they have applied they have been
| repealed. There is no trade in Hilo to
support line. This is not an indepen-
| dent service-it is part of the Oceanic
| Service. | move that, to try this line,
we insert the sum of $l2 900 in the APP
preparation Bill. By the time the year
was up, the French Government would
| do more

business would be done, and he would
vote against it. He moved the previous
