FLAG FOR HAWAII.

FLAG FOR HAWAII.
Kumalae's bill providing for a flag
for Hawaii was introduced and read
| the first time. 1t is the bill of the
last session, legalizing the former flag
of the Islands. The same action was
taken with regard to the bill of the
former session, fixing penalties for pro
curers and agents and owners of houses
run for immoral purposes.
Vida had passed the first time his
bill empowering the sheriffs to appear
as prosecutors in all courts.
ON BOARD OF HEALTH.
The Board of Health next took the
attention of the House. Harris intro
ducing a resolution setting forth that
as members of the Board of Health
were professional men and could not
give the time necessary to attend the
investigation ordered by the committee
of the whole house, referring the whole
matter to the standing committee. He
moved the adoption of the resolution
and Knudson seconded tie motion.
Kaniho at once moved to table, saying
that he wanted the original purpose
carried out. the board brought in and
all permitted to question the members.
Aylett supported the resolution. saying
that there was great amount of sick
ness in the city. he had the fever him
self. and it would be a hardship to call
the physicians in here.
Speaker Beckley asked if the physi-
clans, being unable to come here, could
appear before the standing committee
and give the information. Again, after
more discussion, Beckley arose, and.
declaring that when the Legislature is
in session it is the supreme power, he
wanted to know if committee of this
House must seek public servants, or
must they come and give their state
ments to the representatives of the
people.

a bill making emergency appropriations
to meet the needs of the several de-
partments. On motion OF Knudsen, the
report of the Finance Committee was
adopted, and the bill accompanying it
passed to first reading.
The Printing Committee reported
, that Governor Dole had received the bill
making an appropriation to pay the
expenses of the present session of the
House.
! Rules reported that the rules of the
last session be adopted, with the
amendment of one section providing for
the appointment of a Police Commit
tee, and the addition of another sec
tion defining the duties of that COM
mittee. A motion of Paele to adopt the
minority report failed, and on motion
of Kumalae the majority report was
taken up for consideration. Paele got
the floor on this, and spoke against
the proposed changes in the majority
report, under which the House would
take the appointment of officers into
its own hands. but nobody supported
him, and on motion of Harris the ma
jority report was adopted by a party
vote, after the Speaker had explained
the nature of the changes proposed un-
der it's provisions. Then the House
took recess until afternoon.
