tuted in its place.
| President Smith thought food woul
be supplied them. The matter woult
come up in the organization of tn
movement.
| F. NJ. SwsnZy wished to call atten
tion TO the remarks of Mr.. Lansing ol
the quarantine movement. Though
they fitted the case. People conyer.
ant with Hawaiian language an,
methods should be the ones to Q,
among the natives. Foreigners, ever
though they might be eonversan
with the Hawaiian language, coul,
not accomplish the results whiel
could be gained by the Hawaiian
themselves. Let the latter 60 anon,
their people and tell them that il wa
not necessary to pick up their foot
along the seashore, and that il
was not necessary to wear tn,
csst-off clothing of those who haC
died from cholera. Necessary article:
would be furnished them free O
charge. The foreign citizens wer,
willing TO lend all aid possible. Tn,
natives should be taken care of.
President Smith thought the mat
ter of advice would not have very
much effect Native papers haC

aud yet the csrelessness continued
House TO house inspection was the
only method.
W. a. Kinney thought the move,
ment good one. The city should be
| locked up and house to house vista
ton inaugurated. The matter of per.
sonal inconvenience was the only
thing standing in the way.
President Smith put the motion to
institute citizens volunteer move
ment for the purpose of house to house
visitation. Unanimously carried.
