taken up to-day, on which various for
nal amendments were made.

Mr.. Stewart, to insert the words, ''or Of

THE election for Governor, State
officers and Representatives in Con-
gress from California takes place
to-day, November 4th. One new
Senator in Congress to take the
place of Senator Stanford will also
be chosen by the Legislature that
is elected to-day. Great interest
has been taken in this election
throughout the State, chiefly on &C
count of the new tariff, which ia
vorably affects California fruit, can
ming, wine and spirit interests, the
protective duty on which has been
increased, and will be maintained if
the Republican party is successful
and perhaps lowered if the Demo
Gratis gain majority in Congress
in this falls elections.
The nominees of both parties for
Governor are popular men, and
well known throughout the State.
Ed. e. Pond, the Democratic nomi-
nee, has been Mayor of San Fran
cisco for three years, and is highly
respected; and the same may be
said of Col. Markham, the Repub-
Iican nominee for Governor, who is
a prominent lawyer and capitalist
of Southern California, residing at
Pasadena. Judging from the tone
of the California papers, the latter
is extremely popular, and will
carry all the southern counties by
heavy majorities. The Republicans
appear to be very confident of
electing their Governor by at least
ten thousand majority, though the
Democrats elected their Governor
two years ago. The Australia,
which leaves San Francisco, No
vember 18th, will bring the news of
the result of the election in Cali
fornia and in several other States.

Noble J VI. Horner asked if it would
be constitutional II the word Chinese
in the bill be altered 10 read laborers."
Rep. Brown said the question was on
the liberty OF persons after being ad-
mitted into the country.
Noble J. VI. Horner said it would be a
general law If changed as he proposed.
Rep. Bush said the part OF the bill that
was unconstitutional was that which re-
ferred TO agricultural laborers when their
time of service expired.
Noble Macfarlane favored getting the
opinion OF the Court. He would like to
know whether an ex parte opinion of the
Court would be binding. He referred TO
the case arising out OF the late election.
Rep. Brown said it would il the Court
was sure of the law.
Noble Macfarlane said 4 restrictive
clause must be imposed Notwithstanding
the opinion of the Court
Noble Widemann said it was an es-
tablished fact that an opinion OF the
Court is not decision. They will say it
is an ex parte opinion. II a case came
before them they might reverse their de-
CIslon. He was not over fond OF the
Supreme Court, but in this instance he
would like TO have their opinion.
noble baldwin thought IL We'll 10 reier
the matter TO the Court for their opinion.
Any case likely TO come before them
would be under the provisions OF this
act. The proposition in the bill is max
ing an agreement with the laborers be-
fore they enter the kingdom.
Rep. Nawahi thought before the House
went outside for aid, they had better
first discuss the bill themselves inside.
He was in favor OF referring the matter TO
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
Noble Macfarlane asked Rep. Brown il
the question was to he referred to the
Court now or after they had discussed

was that this action would be constitu-

Noble Widemann moved as an amend.
ment that the Attorney-General and

THE House settled down to BUSH
ness in earnest yesterday, and got
through with considerable work
for which the members really de-
serve to be patted on the back. The
election law with its one hundred
and seven sections was finished and
passed to q committee for revision.
The consideration of the labor bill
was next in order. A question arose
as to its being constitutional, and a
committee of two, the Attorney
General and Rep. G. Brown, were
appointed to draft questions to the
Supreme Court for an opinion. A
report was read from the special
committee on the resignation of DR..
Lutz. In the afternoon four bills
passed to their third reading, while
eleven others were not so fortunate
they were all indefinitely post
poned.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. COR
RECTED.

The Ka Leo o Ka Lahui, of the
29th ult., copies an article from
the Washington Post by that
patriotic Hawaiian, Cesar Celso
Moreno, from whom we learn sun
dry items Of interest. First, that
the seIf-styled Voice of the Ma
ton is the organ Of the National
Reform Party, whereupon we beg
to congratulate them. We are also
told that the said Moreno was
formerly Prime Minister OF Ha-
wall, but the readers of the Post
are not informed of the fact that
the Moreno premiership lasted five
days and that those five days
sufficed to get us into nearly seri-
Gus trouble with the Representa-
tives here of the three Great
Powers
In like manner the Post relates
the fact that Mr.. J. i. Bush has
been twice member of the Cab
met, but we here know more of the
circumstances Of Mr.. Bushs in
cumbencies than might be cOnve-
nient for the Post to recite.
Now comes the pith of the mat
ter. Mr.. Moreno certifies of his own
personal knowledge that Mr.. Bush
and r. W. Wilcox are learned
and progressive native Hawaiians y
and should be called upon to guide
the ship of state. To Judge Of their
fitness for such charge, we need
not, though we might, refer farther
back than the journals of the pre-
sent Legislature. The bundles of
illegal leases granted by Mr..
Bush during his former tenure
of office, the foolishly incen-
diary speeches of Mr.. Wilcox,
which only failed in creating
mischief by reason of their utter
foolishness, the military bill which
he introduced and then wished to
withdraw on the appearance of an
amendment, may help to gauge the
fitness for rule of these typical
Hawaiian patriots" Only suppose
that the abortive attempt to upset
the present Ministry had succeeded
what should we have seen? The
recall of the typical Hawaiian pa
triot Moreno, and the possible
establishment of such a triumvirate
as Hawaii has never yet been tried
with, sore as her trials have been
In spite of the persistent mis-
representations of her enemies and
false friends alike, Hawaii is not sc
completely misunderstood by the
people of the United States as tc
allow the utterances of this trium
virate any possibility of Influencing
the policy of the American govern
ment towards us. Our interests
have been rudely pushed aside il
the sweeping changes of the McKin
ley tariff, and 1T best becomes us tt
avoid sensational or melo-dramati'
FRANKS in the face of such kee1
observers as those who are watch
ing us.
A series of such orations as hav,
been delivered both within tn,
House and on the street by tn,
Bush Wilcox faction, or the mer'
proposal of re-habilitating Moreno
as a possible factor in the Govern
ment Of this country does US NOR
harm in the States than can be cor
rected by any amount of tourist
advertising.
