After considerable discussion as
to the seating of Wittrock and
Kamai the committee took another
recess, asking that the above report
be ignored. H. P. Baldwin for the
committee then reported that they
admitted that rule had been
broken in giving the proxy to Ma
hoe who was not a delegate. He
then quoted the instance of seating
Howell and Cooper in the territorial
convention as a precedent and be-
lieved it better to break a rule and
seat the delegate than antagonize
the precinct who sent the member.
He fun ther quoted an instance that
occurred in the legislature during
his term as Senator, that where a
ruled had been broken, but the
measure passed by both house, all
lawyers he conferred with said that
the courts would sustain the mea-
sure even if a rule had been vio-
lated. The committee report was
then accepted.
