should still be appointed by the
King. Ii was the Chief Justice who
objected this small privilege being
left with His Majesty. The hon.
Noble Isenberg was entitled to all
credit for having stood up against
the action proposed. And he was
informed that the hon. Noble Bald
win protested against the course of
promulgating the Constitution with
out first submitting it to the people.
The speaker had the credit of being
an agitator and he was glad to have
this opportunity of standing up for
the rights of his people.
Rep. r. w. Wilcox had only u
few words TO say now, as the ques-
ton was whether the House should
await the minority report. If the
minority had stated that they were
not going to present a report, it
would be just as wetl to consider
the majority report now. Let each
side have full opportunity for dis
cussion, and then let the losing side
calmly accept the decision.
Rep. Richard, when he made his
motion to adopt the report, was not
aware of any prospect of minority
report. He now asked leave TO with
draw his motion.
Rep. Brown moved that the re-
port be considered next Thursday,
whether the minority report be pre-
sented or not.
Noble Parker thought it nothing
but right that the minority should
be given full opportunity for pre-
pairing a report. Noble Cornwell
was about two months preparing his
report. (Laughter.) He could say
of his own knowledge that the hon.
Noble had been writing on it every
night for six weeks. Rep. Marques
would probably have his report
ready by Thursday, but if not he
should have more time.
| Noble Widemann repeated his
statement about the minority's ap-
pointment for a meeting, which he
said was last Friday week. So they
could see that it wasn't he that
wanted report or prevented one
being prepared.
Rep. Bush moved that the minor
ity report be received Monday.
| Noble Cornwell wanted to answer
Noble Parker back.
Noble Parker-Pll apologize to
the hon. Noble. Laughter.)
| Noble Cornwell said he only had
the report in hand for two weeks, OF
since the resignation of Rep. Kalua
1t was ready week ago and Rep
Marques was present when it was
presented to the committee. Rep
Marques had ample time before
Thursday, and the speaker was anx
ious to have it considered then, a.
he desired to get away Friday.
, The amendment deferring the re
port till Monday carried.
