speak Tor themselves.
SecOnd-That the Ministers have
never approached any of the other
bidders as to whether they would take
part of the payments in bonds of the
Hawaiian Government, but they have
gone backsliding to one who has evil
IDENTIFY got power enough.to lead them
by the nose (as the say ing isl. The only
excuse given by the Ministers worth
mentioning is that they wanted a Blake
pump. If they wanted Blake pump
why did they advertise all over the
United states for tenders for pumping
plant, surely they knew that
tins pump was patented and
was manufactured by the com
pany bearing that name and they
must have been very blind if they did
not see the bid of The Geo. f. Blake
Manufacturing Company per Castle g.
Cooke for the sum OF $4,000, and
boiler for $2S00, making a total of
sl9'4OO, and on looking through
the various bids for erection and stack
the highest for the former was $3.50
and the latter $500 which totalled up
comes to $3.50 being the amount at
which they could have purchased
Blake pumping plant erected from
anybody else but the Homo
lulu Iron Works. o. The difference
between these two figures gives the II.
l. w. very handsome present" of
$1,000 over and above the profits they
will make on this job.
l cannot use any other term than
present as it cannot be for services
rendered or material supplied. If
any of the public or the
Ministers can enlighten me on the
reason of awarding this contract in the
face of the above figures and statements,
l will be creating obliged.
