Minister Fhurston saws il has been
customary for the committees TO do al
work Of this kind. 1t is their business
10 make all investigations of this kind
and obtain sll Necessary documents Ii
they could not obtain them, then they
laid the matter before the House. This
matter and the bills with regard 10 the

tee All these resolutions are simply
taking the work Of the committee out OF
their hands. l therefore move that the
resolution De laid upon the table until
the Military committee has had chance

is necessary or not. These resolutions
are open 70 precisely the same objection
which the honorable member Just made
against the resolution 70 send commit
tee TO Moloksi. They are premature.

Second reading OF bill to provide for
steam railroads on Oahu.
Minister Thurston moved that this bill
De referred to q special railroad commit
tee to be appointed 70 consider this and
other railroad bills. That is what was
done at the last session. 4 committee
should be appointed especially eompe-
tent TO deal with this subject, and as it
affected the Government so deeply, he
thought member Of the Cabinet should
be on that committee.
Noble Widemann said that the other
side had always objected 10 the appoint
ment OF special committees in order to
save time. In accordance with that
argument, ne would move il be referred
TO the Committee on Public Lands
Minister Ashford said the Public
Lands Committee was good one, but
from his experience at the time last ses-
sion when he, the speaker, and Noble
Widemann we're both members of
select committee on the same subject),
ne was led to believe that reference TO
select committee was the best course.
He thought Noble Horner, the introducer
OF the bill. ought to be on the committee
and also a member of the Cabinet.
Noble Widemann said he had not
made his motion with view to having
It carried, but merely to show the other
side the preposterousness OF some OF the
arguments which they advance here. He
would withdraw his motion
The motion to refer it to select COM
mittee was carried and the appointment
of the committee deferred.
Second reading Of an Act with regard
to foreclosure and sale of mortgages. The
Secretary read the bill
Rep. Brown moved the bill be referred
