AFTERNOON SESSION.

The House reassembled at las P. NJ.
Rep. Kaunamano, Noble Pua aud
Rep. Bipikane spoke against the
office. The latter added his offer to
serve gratituously TO those of the
speakers who had preceded him. He
assured the House that the country
would be better served if he were APP
pointed. He would not send people
90 the Leper Settlement because they
hal an old scar or sore finger. He
would not separate husbands and
wives. There were only few white
lepers. 1t was not fair to have
white man rule over ali these natives.
Oil and water would not mix, and
white man could not feel for a Hawai-
ian.
Rep. Bush favored striking out the
item on the ground of economy. The
item, he thought, could be dispensed
with without damage 10 the service.
A minister assisted by a good board
and the present board was a good one
could do the work. The secretary
could and did do all detail work. He
had been president of the Board of
Health, Immigration, etc., and had
held at one time as many az seven
commissions, but still had been able
70 do the work. The natives felt they
had not been treated justly as a peo-
pie. Whether they were right or not
in this feeling was matter of Opin-
ion.
Minister Widemann said the duties
of the resident of the Board of Health
had previously been done by one Of
the Ministers. There was no reason
why it should not be done so again.
The Minister OF Foreign Affairs had
the most time. loud calls of kokua).
Noble Ena was surprised To hear the
remarks Of the Minister. The country
had suffered great losses during the
incumbency of Mr.. Carter and Mr..
Gibson. No doubt there were plenty
of people who would like to get the
office, but were they trustworthy
Noble Marsden said the Committee
on Ways and Means had had the item
under consideration for a month.
Their first idea had been TO abolish
the office of president, but after con-
sideration they had reluctantly come
TO the conclusion that the Office was
necessary and that it was true econ
omy TO retain it.
Noble Young agreed with the last
two speakers, in many respects. Min
isters of the Crown had enough to do
without performing the duties Of the
/ President of the Board Of Health. He
had been sorry to hear the remarks Of
some Of the native members and
hoped they were insincere.
Rep. Kamauoha claimed that vac
cinatiOn was the main cause of lep-
rosy. He moved the item be stricken
+ out.
I Rep. Iosepa asked whether Ieprosy
I had disappeared since the office had
( been made paid one?
! Rep. White did not want the salary
+ 70 cucumber the Appropriation bill.
The motion to strike ont was lost
+ by u 10 %.

Salary Of Secretary $1,000.
