STANDING COMMITTEES.
Noble Kauhane, from the Educa-
tional Committee, presented a report
on petition 4775, praying for the open
ing of new English school at Waia-
lua, Molokai. The committee recon-
mended laying the report on the table.
Rep. White favored establishing
school there. He moved the report
and petition be referred to the Board
of Education.
Rep. Nahum explained that the
nearest school house to Waialua was
Halawa school, about seven miles
distant. The pupils from Waialua
had to cross streams and gulches.
The petition and report were re-
ferred to the Board of Education.
On suspension of the rules, Noble
Marsden introduced resolution that
the President appoint Committee of
Legislators to wait on Her Majesty
the Queen, and instruct her that the
Legislature is ready to be prorogued
next Tuesday. He moved the previ-
Gus question.
Rep. KamauOha held that the pre-
vious question could not be moved
without debating on the resolution.
He read rule So.
Noble Peterson held that the resolu-
ton was out of order. A similar reso-
luton had been tabled, and unless
that was taken from the table, this
could not be done.
The President ruled that the previ-
Gus question was in order according to
rule Sc.
The previous question was put and
lost.
Rep. White held that Noble Mars
denis resolution was a. cOwardly one,
knowing that several important bills
were yet to be presented to the Queen
for signature, and Her Majesty re-
quires ten days to consider them.
IhinlSltI DIOM tHe
speaker that he was speaking too
loud.
Rep. White replied that he had
been always speaking in that tone of
voice heretofore, and there was no
objection raised then. He wanted to
know the rule regarding it.
Noble Young said that they were
not afraid, but they wanted to go
home.
Rep. White: You can do so if you
wish. This House can give you French
leave. The Registration Act had
passed the third reading, and it was a
singular fact that the House was not
willing to wait till after the lapse of
ten days. One of the Ministers had
spoken to Rep. Pua, and informed
him that the Registration Act was
not a good one.
Noble Young wanted to know if
any of the planters voted against the
bill.
Rep. White replied that the Minister
referred to might give the Queen .
contrary advice.
Rep. Kamauoha said that certain
bills you'd come up for their third
readlng next Monday, and it was I'M
fair to prorogue the House the follow
, ing day. He moved that the Legis-
be prorogued next Friday.
Rep. Il. w. Wilcox favored the
House proroguing next Thursday
Tuesday was too soon.
Noble Thurston favored Wednes-
day. Rep. Whites humor might
then be favorable to the Attor-
ney-General, and would not give
him the headache. Many of the
planters are anxious to return next
Tuesday on account of press of busi-
ness. If everybody stopped talking,
the business before the House would
be finished by noon.
Rep. White favored Thursday and
hoped Noble Thurston would agree to
it as that is Thurs[ tOn's1 day.
Rep. Nawahi wanted to know whe.
Their the Cabinet would be prepared to
draw up a nice little speech for the
Queen to make on the occasion OF
propagation.
Minister Jones replied "YeS.o
Noble Marsden accepted Wednes
day.

airy II, 1893, was carried by vote o.
