ORDER OF THE DAY.
Third reading of bill to prohibit
barbed wire fences.
Rep. Nawahi moved the bill pass.
Noble j. M. Horner moved it be
ind, iinitely postponed. 1t was no,
fair for members of the House who
had no interests at stake in the mat
ter to bring in a measure compelling
those who were producing the
wealth of the country to tear dowr
miles and miles of these fences. The
people who put up these fences useC
them because they could not gel
any other kind in time to protec
their property. They were reason
able men and would take thes,
fences down as fast as they could
wherever they were an offense to tn
public. This he had done himsel
with the fence round his garden. Ii
his district there were scores o
miles of fences of this kind. The,
never harmed anybody, but larg
droves of wild stock were drive
that day, against which no othe
fence was protection. Accident
would happen. A horse was kille
on certain bridge, but that was n
reason why the bridge should b
destroyed. He had known cattle t
be killed on board fences.
Rep. Nawahi considered Their
was no necessity for the barbs t
lacerate any man or beast that acci
: dentally came in contact with til
fence. The railway track was fence
with barbed wire, and man gettin
t out of the way of train might ru
: against the barbs. A horse was di'
, embowelled at Hilo, and man wa
/, badly hurt there, by this kind {
fence. The property owners wer
deaf to circumstances against Oh
nuisance. The bill was not sweepin
in its provisions. 1t simply require
! that in towns, or where the Ministe
of Interior might designate, tn
fences should be removed. A
i, amendment was also passed on SCI
!: ond reading, that the Act should nj
j come into effect till six months, bl
d this amendment was left out in el
crossing.
