endeavor to suppress" and awe citizens
OF the United States.
For these reasons, Mr.. President, your
committee feel that the best interest OF
this community will be. served by loading
the entire military pal,aphernalia aboard
a scow, have her towed three miles from
shore, and the stuff fed to the sharks of
the sea, and, dispensing with military
appropriations, do away with those who,
on occasion, might assist land sharks to
become our masters.
Let US put the money so saved to roads
and bridges or other use, assisting in
dustry and commerce, the landmarks of
prosperity and contentment.
Therefore the majority of your Com
mittee on Military recommend that all
items from $50 to 1853 on page q, and
all items from $50 to 563 on pages 80 and
49, be stricken out.
Your committee recommends that the
item of janitor pass as in the bill, and
he to take charge of the military equip
ment until further consideration can be
made of the same.

DAVID KANUHA.
After the reading of the report, SEN
ator Kaohi moved the majority report
be adopted.
This motion opened the fioodgates of
oratory, which took up the balance of
the session.
Senator Achi rose to a point of or
der, and said according to the Organic
Act this Legislature had no right to
do away with the military, and ac-
cording to the section referred to the
Senate had no business to try to do
away with the military. as it was ne
cessity.
THE Senator is out of order" shout
ed Russell. He is speaking off the
subject
We are not considering the Appro-
priation bill,'' added Senator Kanuha.
The report of the majority is the only
business before the House"
Neither Senators Russell nor Kanu-
ha," declared Senator Achi, have any
right to propose such a move as con-
templated by them, and ! move the re-
port be returned to them for more
explicit definition as to why the mill
tary should be done away with. The
report now before the House does not
give any reasons for it's actions, and as
/ said before. 1 move definite report
be handed in
senator ACn1 lnen H1due speech III
Hawaiian, which was not interpreted.
Egring the Senator's speech, Senator
Ka uha was seen to be diligently Pc
rusif 9 the Organic Act, and finally hit
upon something which evidently gave
him & great deal of satisfaction, for,
turnins around to Senator Russell, he
remarked in an undertone. Look at
that: thew can't bluff me-"
at the conclusion of Senator Achi's
speech IL Hawaiian, which for some
reason. probably known only to Inter
prefer Bush, was not translated, Sena-
tor Crabbe rose, and in convincing
speech. declared the only report to be
considered by the Senate, was the mi
nority report.
Karuha's report, said Senator Carter,
was like an explanation given by a
professor of mathematics at a college
he attended in the States. A discussion
arose during a class meeting as to how
and why a ball thrown by a person
would make the in and out curves, Ia
miliar to every lover of baseball After
going into an exhaustive explanation
as to what caused the in-curve, the
professor was brought to a standstill
| by a member of the class declaring
that the supposed in-curve was an OUT
shoot. The professor could nor right
himself with the class. and SO it was
with Senator Kanuha's report-there
