of order" speeches on the resolution
presented by him. Noticing a ma
lority OF the native members present
he Judged that the opportunity for
obtaining a favorable vote should not
be lost, 50 he moved the previous
question to end debate and press
vote. Happily the rule, requiring a
four-tifths vote to carry, was not
complied with and the foreign men,

to listen to further harangue upon
the subject.
Noble Horner was opposed to the
resolution, as it was interfering with
the rights of the Minister.
Noble Baldwin was opposed on the
same ground and not on account of
any desire not to relieve the sufferings
of the afflicted.

was possible was now being done.
The Board of Health were not for

of a capable specialist.
Rep. Kaunamano was in favor of
the resolution, as were also Reps.

subject was under consideration, al

neither intention nor wish to neglect
the interests of the sufferers by the
Board of Health.

tired, of the discussion andlendeavor-

without delay, the previous question.
