The Daily bulletin., 1890-11-11

lighting was we'll done now, The
city was left in darkness last night.
The suburbs were not lighted at all.
Noble Muller moved to strike out
Secs. 8 and 8.
Noble j. nj. Horner said that the
Government furnished the lights at
GO cents, and would reduce the rate
if the House had granted the appro-
priation asked. The company was
to charge 704 cents. This made a
difference of thousands of dollars
against the people of Honolulu
themselves, besides which the street
lighting would have to be paid for out
of the treasury. The Government
would be able to improve the SER
vice, if it had not been for the con-
spiracy in this House to root it out
altogether.
Noble Marsden said the hon. No
BILE was assuming what was not in
the bill in his comparison OF charges.
Rep. Brown had been informed
by one of the first electricians of the
country that, If the works were ex-
tended to give enough power for all
the lighting desired, new storage
reservoirs would have to be con-
structed or else the extra amount of
water he let run to waste. Under
the circumstances he thought it
would be public advantage for a
company to take over the house
lighting, but he was opposed to any
exclusive franchise.
Rep. Paehaole would support in
definite postponement and, if that
failed, would vote for striking out
the Objectionable features of the
bill. From the first section every
thing in the bill was a giveaway
from the Government.
