The Hawaiian gazette., 1896-03-13

Senator Browns bill on Chinese
Immigration was referred to the COM
mittee on Commerce
The discussion then turned to the
report of the Miscellaneous Com
mittee. S nator McCandless asked
for more detailed statement from
the Superintendent of public works.
In answer To this query portion of
tie report now in the printers hands
was read. Senator Baldwin said he
had understood from Mr.. Irwin that
the Hawaiian Electric Company
could furnish as good service at a
cheaper rate. He asked for delay of
few days in the consideration of the
item. Minister Smith referred to
laws already on the statute books,
calling attention to the fact that in
order TO accept the proposition of the
com pany, a special act to that effect
should be brought in. He suggested
that the report OF the committee be
accepted and that the matter be
brought up in different form later.
Senator Brown agreed with the
Minister, but believed that the Gov
vernment should investigate the mat
ter very thoroughly and see what the
Electric Company would do. After
considerable rambling discussion, the
item in the Appropriation Bill passed
at $4,000.
Appraisers Department.
Just at this point very interesting
episode occurred. The consideration
of Appropriation Bill having, presum-
ably, been completed, it was moved
that the measure pass the third read
ing. The roll was called and the bill
passed, Senators Hooking and Hol-
stein being the only ones to vote
against the bill. The vote had
hardly been declared when Senator
Hooking announced that he wanted
to discuss the item of $500 for general
appraisers, and asked that the bill be
reconsidered. Senator Brown, evil
IDENTIFY remembering that he had for
gotten something, said "Oh, yes l
move to reconsider" On the recon-
sideration, Senator Hooking moved
that the item be reduced to $4,000. He
had understood that this appropria-
ton of $500 was asked in order to
bring an expert from Washington, or
give 4" some dear brother from the
United States a job.n The Senator
from Maui didn't believe in sending
out of the country for men. There
was just as good material in Hawaii
as in Washington.
Senator Brown was even more radi
cal, and moved that the item be
stricken from the bill. He didn't be-
lieve men could be imported who
could do as good work as the men al
ready here. The men in the States
were specialists and were no more
able To properly appraise the goods
coming into Hawaiian ports than the
man in the moon. He thought 5000
was enough for the appraisers depart
ment Senator Hooking, finding such
radical support, accepted the amend |
mept to strike out the item.
Minister Damon said the Customs |
Bureau supplied more than one-third |
the revenue of the Republic, anu the |
increased expenditure in the apprais-
er's Office had already beeu more than
paid tor by the increased revenue OBJ
tainrd from merchants who had pre- |
yiously evaded the customs law. Past |
experience bad proved that an in
expenditure would be pay
ing investment. /

MR.. HART AT BLUEFIELD,

&c "'"FfN'cs Housing Meeting at that
Point on tho Money Question.
h'ieiieid Telegraph: There were n
large number of citizens OF nil political
parties crowdtnE the city hall last night
to hear Hon, Charles Burdett Hart, cdI-
tor OF the Wheeling lntcllIgencer, dis
cu"s the issues involved in the present
canvass.
Hon. John Cooper, the pioneer coal
operator, aS chairman OF the meeting,
Introduced the speaker In a few timely
remarks.
Mr.. Hart prefaced his speech with n
It" REMARKS on the wonderful Develop
mcnt of the natural resources OF this
practically newly opened up section Of
the Little Mountain State" He then
went Into 4 practical discussion of The
conditions that now exist In the COM
merc!al world. and thog4 that would on
cEltablS ensue were the PopuistIc wing
OF the Democracy to get into power and
enact Il free and unlimited coinage OF
silver law.
a point which will appeal PARTICULARS
to the railroad men and all wage carncrs
was that under free silver. prices Of
commodities being high. wages will not
rise III proportion, hut that In all times
OF trouble they are the first to fall.
His argument throughout was one of
the best We have ever heard and showed
me free silver fallacy In Its true light
me speaker was interrupted several
times, aud had ready answer for each
interruption. The audience was an Mt
tcntiHc one and NIL expressed themselves
as highly pleased with his exposition OF
aound money principles.
II was n thorough discussion of the
money question In all It's phases and dis
played Wide research and great know
ledge OF the question handled. We re-
srct that we cannot publish Il.
After Mr. Hart had concluded there
were loud calls for Ash NJ. Prince, who
responded IN one If his characteristic
ringing speeches. Calls were made for
Hartman and Mcadnr Mr.. MclIlor
asked o'be excused, as he was out OF
politics.,
We hope It may be our pleasure to
have Mr. Hart here again, us the cam
paiEnt progresses.

Supervising New. Tor Purpose.

Since the Register bnltcd from the
sound money Democracy, headed By the
only President the democracy have been
able TO elect IN 4 period OF thirty-eight
years, It Is pursuing as conXclGac4leS; a
course as did the new conmunisiic lead
ers who We're in the saddle at the ChEca-
81 convention and uver-rod every uAm-
ccratlc prccedact anl tradition In their
mad chase aftc!' u phantom.
The Register, for Instance, could find
no room In It's columns yesterday for an
important feature In the Associated
Press report OF the night before. namely,
the semi-ollic!al announcement Of tho
attitude OF, the Democratic admtniatra-
ton toward the. P0pullSt- Democratic
ticket nominated at Chicago last week.
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
lIamlIn, after 4 visit to President Clevc-
land ut Gray Gables. gave 10 the press n
statement to the effect that republican
institution are threatened by the Chi
cago platform; that every loyal citizen
should ally himself against the forces
which controlled the conventional forces
OF lawessnGss which are inconsistent
with the malntalnment OF the republic.
Secretary IIamlln declared that the
forces In control at Chicago having been
stamped out Mt the polls by an Indignant
people, the great political parties can
again divide and discuss the other quGs-
tions which for generations have kept
them alive. The siinc dispatch said
Secretary Herbert would bolt tho ticket.
1t Ia evident TINT, as the admIniJtra-
ton regards It, there lg'n crisis In which
the national crcditnnd the governments
honor Is ut stake AMI the dispatch gly-
Ing Secretary fIamlIn'J statement was
regarded aS Important. Yet the Regis
ter, which. In the face OF Its record for
sound money, has surrendered I" the
discordant elements In the saddle at
Chicago, could find no place In rs col
umn9 for this striking feature OF the
news Of the day, which It received over
tIc Wires just uh tHG lhtvlH6cHStl ~

There is Il suspicion AMONG Demo-
crat3 In Wheeling that the Register Is

popnlist ticket nominated by The mis-
named Democratic convention ut Chlca-
