TO whom was referred the article pub
l.s7ed in the Honolulu Star, under date
of April %. 1908. charging members of
this House with receiving bribes in
connection with the Liquor Bill. etc.
which said article is hereto annexed
and marked Exhibit \. having duly
considered the same. beg leave TO re-
port. as follows. to wit:
First: We examined the following
witnesses: F. L. Hoogs. E II. F Vol
ters. wm. CoeIho and David Kahaule-
lio. they being, so far as your commit
tee could ascertain. the only PARTIES
able 10 give any testimony upon the
matter under consideration. and no
other parties requested to be heard. or
indicated in any manner whatsoever a
desire to appear before your commit
tee. The examination, therefore. has
been as exhaustive as your committee
could make it: but nothing whatever
has been brought out TO show any foun-
iation for the charges contained in the

said newspaper article. as more fully
appears from the transcript of the evi-
dence, taken al said examination. and
hereto annexed and marked Exhibit &.
Second: Your Committee find. that
the said article was wantonly and
maliciously published. The said news
paper in said publication showed an
utter disregard for the feelings and
reputation OF the members OF this
House by recklessly attacking their in
tegrity in such "a way as to keep with
in the law OF contempt. and beyond
the reach OF proceedings for criminal
libel While We would not abridge the
liberty of the press. yet the Dublica-
tiou under consideration is such wan
ton abuse Of the right of the press TO
criticise freely the conduct of public
men discharging legislative duties as To
suggest that the Organic Act should be-
amended in such "a way as 10 bring
such publications under the iaw Of con-
tempt.
Third. We. therefore. recommend the
adoption by this House Of the following
resolution. namely:
Resolved; That the article appearing
