of rocks they will hatch out some
thing. The time to wrestle round |
and develop something is during
hard times, not during the times
when we are flush and need nothing. |
The Minister of Finance had said
that we are in hole That may be,
but are we going to sit down and let
the sides fall in2 MOI Let us try
to do something to help ourselves
out of the hole, Those gentlemen
are now on the top of the heap by
aid of the Reciprocity Treaty and
they can look down on us. They
are Independent. 1t is not possible
for man to get the dollar that he
gave out to-day back tomorrow.
We must use our heads to get mon
ey to pay that which we borrow,
with interest and get something
over. The support that this item is
getting in this House is more from
the Hawaiian members than from
the foreign, that shows plainly that
the Hawaians are advancing in in
telligence (applause). They may
call me an annexationist; they may
call me disloyal; but whatever [ am,
| will say that / desire to carry the
flag of Hawaii from one end of the
earth to the other, and | shall be
proud of it. Again, there will be
displayed the American flag upon
the six tall tlagstatfs at the Column
bian Exposition, but it will not fly
from that of the Cyclorama Build
ing, for from there will be the
largest Hawaiian flag that he could
buy at the Universal Bazaar Gap
plause). There is one thing that
Hawaiians have, a natural dignity,
and they can conduct themselves as
gentlemen and he had no fear that
the Band boys would conduct them
selves improperly, (Applause)
Rep. White said that he admired
the tact of Noble Ihurston; that
gentleman understood the Hawaiian
nature we'll; they liked TO be Tucked
and the honorable member well
knew how to tickle them, daughter
and applause). The people here will
miss the band, we know not how
long Noble Thurston will keep them
away, 1t may be for a year or two;
in fact maybe Mr. Thurston will take
them off to Europe on tour,
(Laughter.) He did not believe that
the money spent for the band would
do any good, for it would be all ex-
pended in wind.
Rep. Kaunamano favored the item
because he thought it would adver-
tise the country. He instanced
Judge Harris going over in aid of
Reciprocity, But the people there
said why you are from Vermont, we
know you. Then Judge Allen and
others, but nothing was accomplish
ed until kalakaua went, then they
saw something belonging to Hawaii
and believed that there was such a
place, that it needed help and the
American people helped us. The
Hawaiian Band was an Hawaiian in
stitution and would well advertise
us.
Al 1886, after the previous ques
tion had been moved about ten diff
terent times and as often withdrawn,
it was moved and carried, and the

On motion the rules were sus-
pended, and Rep. Smith, from the
Judiciary Committee, presented a
report on salaries of the clerks of
the Judiciary Department. The
committee say that they make no
change in the salaries OF the SUI
preme Clerks, but make increase in
the salaries of the clerks of Circuit
Courts. On motion the report was
adopted and the items were inserted
in the Appropriation Bill.
Rep, Smith also presented re-
