IN THE HOUSE.


There was hardly anything of a
strictly new variety to disturb the
peaceful department of the house yes
terday. Considerable argument was in
dulged in by two members which
brought forth some hot interchange of
sarcasm, and personalities were also
flung about to shameful extent. The
cause of this warm debate CD arose
from the fact that an opinion expressed
by one of the parties was promptly
labeled as a thought of inane abb
surdity. the child of a vacuous era
MUM, subtle scheme TO infect the
public with the germs of a ravaging
poison.p
The house was hushed. For moment
the silence like that preceding a storm,
reigned- The sponsor of the measure
looked pale and worried. And though
ii was his own house he submitted to
the inevitable. The measure" then
opened on him, thus:
IF You would put in a good fixture

EXPLAINS VOTE

II wanted to explain to the Legisla-
ture yesterday why had changed my
vote on the County bill in the House, .
said Representative Greenwell. of Ko-
ma, yesterday. 1.-THE reason are simple
enough. am not opposed to the Coun-
ty bill, as such I voted as did in
justice to my people.
I'm the bin as it came down from
the Senate the island of Hawaii was
divided into the two counties of East
Hawaii and West Hawaii. In the coun-
~ of West Hawaii, originally, We're in
cluded the districts of North Kohala,
South Kohala, North and South Kona,
and Kau. The district of Hamakua
was included in the county of East
Hawaii. The House committee has
changed this, putting the district of
Hamakua in West Hawaii. instead of
Kau, and making Waimea the county
seat
Now, in my opinion, Waimea is the
most undesirable place possible for a
county seat. The county seat of that
county should have been in Kona."
