THE LEGISLATURE.
153RD DAY.
THURSDAY, Dec. ~, 1892.
Morning Session.

gistration Bill presented a report in
Guiding an amended bill. Report
tabled for consideration with bill.
Minister Jones moved the recon-
sideration of the vote striking out
the item of $500 for the completion
of the Tantalus Road. Carried.
At $50, the Order of the Day be-
ing moved, Bill Ia, relating to the
establishing of Bureau of Agricul-
ture and Forestry, came up on third
reading and was passed without adj
verse comment.
Bill 214, relating to preventing
hunting or fishing on private
grounds, came up on third reading.
Rep. S. X. Pua moved the indefi-
mite postponement of the bill.
Rep. Kaunamano moved that the
bill pass.
Rep. Smith moved an amendment
that the Imprisonment punishment
be struck out of Section 2.
Noble Marsden suggested furth-
er amendment that notices be posted
on the grounds which are regarded
as private.
Rep. Ashford supported the mo-
ton to indefinitely postpone. He
believed that the proposed bill was
concocted in the interest of little
clique of so-called sportsmen who
own shotguns and want to own all
the shooting rights and privileges.
These people are not satisfied with
what they have already got in rights
but they want the earth, and they
not only want it fenced but they
want the fence painted and sanded
He looked upon the bill as an at
tempt to monopolize privileges
which this little clique think should
belong to none others than them
selves.
Rep. White also supported the
indefinite postponement. If this
law was passed, then next Session
there would be an attempt made by
large land owners to prohibit the
gathering of ii leaves or ferns and
bye and-bye these people would
claim the birds flying over their
land.
Rep. Waipuilani was in favor of
the bill. He did not think that
there was anything unreasonable in
the provisions of the bill. Now,
people who have no right go on
lands and with dogs pretend to
hunt pigs. Instead they chase and
worry cattle, and when they go of
the land they leave the gates open
and stock stray out. This measure
would be a protection to land own,
ers.
Rep. Kamauoha was not in favor
of the bill. The law of trespass at
present in existence was sufficient tc
/ cover the provisions of this proposed
bill.
Rep. Kaunamano favored the bill
The trespass law would not fill the
bill, this was necessary for the pro
lection of landowners.
Noble Baldwin said that he haC
nothing to do with the introduction
of the bill; he did not belong to any
shooting trust, in Oahu or else
where, but he believed this proposed
law was just one, and would be o
y benefit to property owners, by put
ting stop to the indiscriminat'
shooting going on at present.
On motion the ayes and noes wer
taken on the motion to indefnitel,
postpone, resulting in the loss o
the motion by vote of 80 to IA a
!, follows:
