Noble Walbridge stated that the

ciary Committee on the item of $1,000

RESOLUTIONS.
Rep. Ashford presented the follow
ing resolution:
"Resolved that the Sanitary Com
mittee be and they are hereby in
structed to confer as early as possible
with representative members of the
medical profession of Honolulu, with
a view to determining what measures
if any may be necessary or desirable
in order to prevent the introduction
of cholera into this kingdom, and to
combat it in case it shall be here in
troduced, and said committee are
hereby instructed to report after such
conference, such resolutions, bills or
other measures looking to the end
sought, as they shall deem to be for
our best sanitary interests in the
premises"
Rep. Ashford said he was not una
ware that resolution had been intro
duced yesterday, but it did not quite
meet the case. A prominent physician
had told him yesterday that the soil
here was of such character, that il
the cholera once came here it would
never leave it. He was informed that
prominent gentleman who arrived
yesterday had about convinced lead.
ing member of the Board that there
was no cholera anywhere.
Rep. Smith said if he were the
Creator he would make the member
from the Third District over again
and make him little different. He
was quite useful, but always brought
in some cantankerous idea. If the
resolution were adopted, the Sanitary
Committee would act on it immedi
ately, but not with any idea of oppo
sitiOn to the Board.
The resolution was adopted.
The President appointed as Com
mittee on Appropriations for Privat.

of the enterprise. He said to a reporter for
the Tribune that there was no doubt about
the feasibility and practicability of the
scheme if the money for it can be raised.
The plans are substantially the same as

the engineer.
Simply stated the plans provided for

vessels can be floated on and off the enor-

the car the vessels will rest securely on

six or more powerful locomotives. The
