we'll. He did not know what wa
the right place.
Rep. Paehaole said there wer
about thirty acres at Kamalo wher
natives were planting cane. The

Government there, and on this Ian
they wanted the Government to di
we'll. There was a good deal {
land at Kamalo which would be cul
tivated if there were water.
Rep. Brown did not approve c
the Government doing this. Th
parties who would get the benefit G
the water ought TO sink the we
themselves. All the wells on Oah
were dug by private persons. Their
was plenty of water there for wasf
ing and drinking purposes. If ther
is any large landowner there VIII
wants water on his land, let him di
we'll himself. Water has been oil
taied on Maui, and at Mahukon.
Hawaii, but the wells were sunk b
private individuals.
Rep. Paehaole said the rule lai
down by the hon. member was yer
we'll if it were consistently applied
100000 has just been passed fc
immigration who would get til
benefit of that? The planters.
it was wrong to help the planters
water, it was to help them 10 imm
grants. Why did the hon. memb'
} vote large subsidy to the Oahu I
} &c l.. Co.! The speaker saw hin
} self no harm in the Gcvcrnmel
sinking we'll. If it was su
cess private parties would d
others, and the Government won
reap large return in increas,
taxes.
