Even with present conditions the

there will be several more stations

they saw that their reserved fire lot
at the head of Pauahi street had been
sold.

Campbell, when the Mayor and the

thought it would be a good idea to hear
the Governor
Rice supported the motion. He
wanted to hear the Governor explain
certain paragraphs.
Castro believed the legislative branch
of the government should work indie
pendently of the executive. 1T would
simply be saying let us accept the
views of the Governor and ignore those
of other people, It is inconsistent; it
is unfair
Rice was surprised that one member
from the Fourth, who yesterday NOV
ed to hear from the Governor, should
now flop right over. If Castro wished
to shirk his duty on the committee to
get the Governor, the chair could APP
point someone else.
Long offered an amendment reopen
ing the whole thing. He moved that
the Governor and any others who
might wish to sp eak on the subject be
invited to come before the committee.
Sheldon seconded the motion, which
was put. and carried.
AS it was nearly 1870 Alfonso doubt
ed if it would be wise to keep the Gov
ernor from his lunch. He moved the
committee rise and report progress.
The motion was tabled. Alfonso kick
ed because the motion was not inter
preted; the interpreter ought to do
some work to earn his salary. The
motion was again put and Affonso's
motion was tabled.
Cohen addressed the gallery, invit-
ing anyone who desired, to step up and
say anything he had to say. Nobody
felt urgent desire to talk and Castro
was sent for the Governor.
Castro came back and reported that
the Governor was attending a celebra-
ton in honor of the birthday of the
Emperor of Japan and could not come.
Alfonso renewed his motion that the
Committee rise. This time it carried.
The Speaker called the House to or

port Off the Committee of the Whole.
Joint Resolution 1, Castro, providing
fir the creation of a Commission on

And Whereas, the Federal Congress
by an Act entitled an Act Providing for
the government of the Territory of Ha-

BE it Further Resolved, that tae
Honorable Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole,

Kama moved to have it referred to
the Printing Committee to be trans
lated.
Sheldon said the question: is one that
affects everybody in the Territory, one
concerning which much has been said
from the pulpit, and one that ought to
be thoroughly thrashed out in Com
mittee of the Whole.
The Speaker referred the resolution
to the printing committee.
The order of the day was taken up,

provided, shall be made by the legis-

Section 4, extending the Territory's
power to issue bonds passed as in the
bill, on motion of Sheldon.
Alfonso moved that section relating
to the amendment of the land laws, be
deferred until later as it sthe most
important in the bill and should re-
ceive special attention after the mem
bers had had a chance to think it over
at their leisure. He thought an oppor-

lie to appear before the committee and
express themselves on the matter.
Every man, woman and child is in

bers by promising to resign as COVER
nor on March 4. This assertion is de-
MED by Governor Chamberlain. who
