statement to go forth unchallenged'
If no check is put to the matter
now, the m smbsrs would bs CHASED
as fools, and If nothing definite lie
made, then auy Off ,ial may be pick
ed out as the guilty one and thus dc
Injustice to innocent men.
When Chillingworth had subsid.
ed, after saying that until proven,
| stamp the statement as untrue
Kumalae startled on TRADE against
the Health Committee, which had
held up an investigation OF certain
transactions which he brought to
the attention OF the House. BE
termed the committee as "palaua-
lelo," that is, lazy, which was OBJ
jected to by Chillingworth. The
Speaker called Kun ,lae to order,
that be must irefrain from indulg-
ing in personalities. Kuna!ae then
said that he could not give away
the name Of any head of depart
ment, aud was upheld in his posi-
ton by tbs Spesksr The amend
ment to the section fiaally passed
after lot OF hot air hal been let
loose.
Hsrris then offered the following
amendments ,unGer Treasury de
partment being for refund of axes,
and licenses as follows: Hsnry
Smith, S24 LAB; A McLennsn, SIS so,
j Fl Hanlon, $3.50; Manuel Bap-
tista, Sl700; r P Waipa, $40 GO;
Mrs Ii j Forbas, S2l00; Hawaiian
Ferlil'z, Co. $l776.36, all OF whic h
passed, and under the Department
Of Public Works ST. ,2l0. for rec Dup
ing E van Sender for purchase
price Of Nuuanu lot, which passe d
as we'll.
Paele moved to insert under the
Public Works Department items for
repairs of court house at Waianae,
$1,000; for jail, same, $1,000; for re-
pairs court house and Jail at Eva,
$1,000, the items being passed.
On motion of Keliinoi, new item
was inserted under the Office OF the
Secretary of the Territory, for ad-
vertising the resources of the Terri
tory, $4,000. The resolutions of
the Chamber OF Com merce we're
ordered read in support of this
item.
Paele started opposition by say
ing that there was no money to give
away for such apurposs and that
the Chamber of Conn erce was rich
and could afford to make the effort
for the benefit OF the business PEG
pie. Kumalae said he thought the
money appropriated for the Frazier
handbook should be sufficient to
give away at this time. Money was
needed for roads and it would not
do to take all for other purposes
such as this is.

serted by the following vote: Ayes

mittee.
On the Loan Bill baiug called up,
the first motion made was to refer

consideration, but was lest, then
ensued a tcrimmage as to what was
to bs doue with it, ending in ad.
