Rep. Smith complained that one of
the papers supplied to members of
the House was always in mutilated
condition on Saturdays. He strongly
objected to the practice.
Minister Parker said that some of
the members were looking al him in
peculiar manner as though he was
the guilty party daughter and re-
marks about "a guilty conscience }.
; In a convincing and most bland man
, ner he denied the impeachment.
Noble Cornwell was also anxious
to clear himself before being charged.
3 He wished TO be as it were, like
Q C9ser's wife, above suspicion even.
Rep. Smith said that the matter
lay between the President of the As

ton that the Advertiser reporter and
the Advertiser newspaper be expelled
from the Assembly on account of an
item rejecting upon himself and

j Rep. Waipuilani said that the re-
porter should be made to apologize.

knocked out, but it lowered the
e writer in his estimation.
e Noble Thurston said this was a
