and that it was their opinion the law
did not apply to the use of alcohol
by the government.
DR.. Andrews drew attention to the
fact that mythelated spirits would do
just as well as pure alcohol
for embalming purposes.
1t was ordered that the action of
the president allowing the with
drawal of the alcohol be approved.
President Smith stated the com.
mittee to whom had been referred
the matter of the store at the leper
settlement, had reported a consulta
ton with the cabinet, at which action
on the matter had been deferred to
be acted upon within one or two
weeks.
President Smith said the matter of
fish peddlers had been brought to his
notice, and that there were sixty odd
peddlers of fish in Honolulu who
had not taken out licenses.

need of taking out license for the

fish.

The Honorable, the Board of Health,
Honolulu, H. I.
GENTLEMEN: am instructed by
SIessrs. Hollister & Co., OF this city,
10 enter on their behalf, a formal pro-
test against the action of your honor
able board, in regard to the several
tenders for drugs and medical sup
plies opened by your honorable board
on the 9th instant. / am advised by
INV clients that their tender in the
premises was several hundred dollars
lower land consequently more favor
able TO the public than the only
other tender made, viz, that of
Messrs. Hebron, Newman d Co., and
vet my clients show the letter of your
secretary wherein he informs them
that sit was resolved to very respect
fully decline their TENDER Upon
teleponing to the secretary he further
informed me that the contract had
been awarded to Messrs. Hebron,
Newman & Co. upon their tender.
The circumstances of this case are
as / am advised by my clients pecu-
liar i'm more respects than one, and
my clients feel themselves so far
aggrieved by the alleged action of
your honorable board, as to justify in
their belief the most vigorous and
effective measures they can adopt as
a means of preventing the present
apparent purpose of the board being
carried into effect. In this connec-
ton, | am instructed to suggest that
two members of your honorable board
are stockholders in the corporation lit
appears by its exhibit on file in the
interior office to which the contract
has been awarded in the face of a
lower tender, and that the president
of your honorable board is closely re-
lated TO one of the two principal stock
holders in the corporation mentioned.
II may be, gentlemen, that there is
no legal restriction upon the action of
your honorable board in the premises,
and that you are at liberty to disre-
gard the merits of the respective ten
ders, and 20 award contracts at your
discretion, without regard to the ex-
istence of circumstances of the pecu-
liar character above recited. But
Messrs. Hollister & Co. are prepared
to test in the courts, if such course
shall seem necessary, the right of your
honorable board to follow the course
above indicated, and propose to so
fest it. in case no arrangement salts
factory to them can be reached in the
premises.
