MUTUAL CONGRATULATIONS.
Rep. Brown moved q suspension
of rules, under which he made
personal address to the President.
On behalf of the Mobiles and Repre-
sentatives he desired to express their
gratitude, thanks and appreciations
for the uniform courtesy and Impair
TALLY with which he had presided
over their deliberations. The first
part of the session was somewhat
bitter, but happily that was all past.
The latter part of the session had
passed most agreeably, and in the
name of the Mobiles and Representa-
tives he wished to thank the Presi-
dent for his uniform courtesy in all
matters.
President Walker said-Nobles
and Representatives, hardly know
what to say in reply to this address
on your behalf. l am not unmind-
ful at all of your great kindness to
me, and l am not unmindful that l
have made many mistakes. l wish
you all good health and prosperity.
Noble Baldwin-On behalf of the
Mobiles and Representatives, would
like to move vote of thanks to our
Secretary for the able and efficient
manner in which he has conducted
the business of the House. 1t is a
matter of congratulation to every
member of the House that a Hawai-
ian has been able to conduct the
business of the House with the eff
cheney that he has exhibited. |
| think [ speak the mind of the House
in saying that if he shall be can
didate for the position at next ses-
sion. we shall vote for him unan-
imously.
Minister Brown said it gave him
| great pleasure to second the motion
of the hon. Noble. The speaker
have occupied that position himself
two or three sessions and knew the
difficulties of the office. The Secre-
tary had been attentive TO his duties,
obliging and courteous to all. Should
it be their privilege to meet in the
next Legislature, he was sure that
their votes would he cast for Mr..
Wilcox.
The President desired TO say a
few words on behalf of the Secre-
tary. His experience in former
terms had been that they had had
some very good secretaries and some
with whom they had had difficulties.
The present Secretary took the
Office without any previous expe-
rience, but had filed the office with
complete satisfaction. No time had
been lost in hunting for papers.
His memory had been good as to
the business before the House. He
thought the House had reason to be
very grateful for the Secretary's
attention TO business.
Rep. Paehaole, in behalf of the
members, wished TO express thanks
to the Interpreter and Secretary for
their services. The Interpreter
(Mr. w. l.. Wilcox) had been al
ways attentive to their remarks, not
only interpreting them fairly, but
supplying what was lacking in their
speeches. (Laughter,)
Noble j. NJ. Horner said the In.
terpreter had filed u place that
could hardly he filled by any other
person In the Kingdom. They
could have filled their Presidents
chair or their Seeretary's chair, pos

had been the case, but he doubted
