Rep. Kamauoha read for the first
time bill TO amend Section 81 of

The same member offered the fol-
lowing resolution:
"WHEREAs the Honorable f. G.
Macfarane has before this House
charged the U. s. Minister with
"unwarrantable action on q recent
public occasion " - faction which
could only be intended TO interfere
with and obstruct the Administra-
tion," without naming the occasion,
or defining the action referred to;
And whereas, there has heretofore
been no opportunity for this House
to express It's opinion on this subject /;
Now therefore be il resolved, that
it is the sentiment of this House that
such language and action of the
! Honorable f. G. Macfarlane concern
ing the Minister Resident of a
friendly foreign Government is en-
tirely uncalled for and without justi-
lication by any facts which have been
presented to this House;
And be it further resolved, that
all minutes relating to this matter
be expunged from the records Of this
House.
Noble Marsden was in favor of the
passage of the resolution he con
sidered that it was the wisest course
He was willing to give Noble Mac
farlane all due credit for being jeal.
Gus of any Sights which may have
been considered as cast upon the lla-
waiian Kingdom, but he thought that
he action Of the honorable member
was hasty and ill,consldered, He
had read carefully the address of the
American Minister as delivered or
Memorial Day and only by assump
zion could any reference be found tt
our local affairs and no one had {
right TO construe that assumption
into direct reference. He hoped
that this would be the last heard OF
this matter.
Noble Macfarlane said that besides
his question on the matter there had
been question addressed to the
Minister of Foreign Affairs by Re
preventative Bush, that the Cabine
iay before the House all The CORES
pondence on the subject. He haC
not heard anything more on this mat
ter outside of the Minister'S asking
for further time, Thought it would b,
unwise TO take action on this resolu
tion until that matter was laid belor,
,be House. When that happened h
would have something to say TO jusIi
fly his course in the matter.
Rep. Ashford favored the resolution
He had heard the resolution read by
Noble Macfarlane, in which he pro
posed that the American Minister b.
Tehuked. He could not understan,
how that could be when there wer
no charges or specifications present
ed 1t WAS generally understood tina
it was Tor speech made by the Min
ister on Decoration Day AT Nuuan
Cemetery, but all were left in TIA
dark relative TO the objecLionabl
