On suspension of the rules, Rep. Ka-

of Confidence in the Cabinet. 1t read
as follows:
"Resolved that the Legislature
hereby expresses its want Of conf
dence in the Cabinet"
Rep. Kapahu said the Minister of
the Interior and the Minister of Fin
ance were good, charitable men, but
he felt constrained to bring this reso-
luton.
Rep. Kamauoha said the Cabinet
were able and honest men. There was
no doubt that they possessed the con-
hdence OF the community. They were
men OF integrity, who would be able
to secure funds to carry on the Gov
ernment. But would they carry out
the wishes of the Queen? Would they
do what the Queen and the Hawaiian
people wanted in regard to the Lot
terry, the Constitutional Convention,
etc. Would they do as the Queen
them to?

brother were in the Cabinet he would
vote him out if he were put in in vio-
ation of principle. That was why
le would vote against the Cabinet.

he Cabinet was put in in violation of
principle was incorrect. (The
