and in m st e opp'Sitiun to any
a tf mpr at political n.j jstice or class leg-
islation.
Ketolve', 1 That ne respectfully rec-
ommend the following amendments to
and alterations of the draft of the pro-
posed new constitution:
2. We desire to mark Section 2, Arti-
cle 1 of the drtft particularly w th our
approbation, and fervently trust that the
insertion of this section is not mt rely a
s rothing forma ity, but will be properly
and precisely enforced, after promulga-
tion of the Constitution.
3. Tuis is a cosmopolitan community.
There can be no logical reasons adduced
as to why English should be the domi-
nant language. The Constitutional Con-
vention might, with equal piopiiety, re-
quire that an alien before being adu itted
to citizenship be aWe to titiderstandingly
read and writi Latin. We suggest para-
graphs 3 a d4, Section 2, Article 18, be
stricken out
4. Many a sober, honest, hardworking
mechanic ams lrom $4 to $5 a day, yet
never becomes the owner in his own
light of property of the value of $00.
Many a well educated, intelligent man
lias a hard Btruggl. to keep body and soul
together. It is unreasonable that he
bould be classed uith a refugee from
justice because he is po. r. Poverty is
not a crime Paragraph S, Section 2,
Article 18 should be stricken out.
5. lnall countries acenain term of res-
idence i-- required tor acquirement of toe
full privileg n of ei izeiHnp Amid the
-i liar conditions in which we are situ
ated, it is probably po ible that 'special
rights of citizenship" may be justly
granted ti all who have support d
the Provisional Government of Haw ii
We c msider it unjust to the Hawai an
people and country, and undignitie.ii in
;he proposed new Hawaiian Republic to
issue letters of denization. An3 person
who has sutficieiit intere-- t in the welmre
of the Hawaiian Islands to desiie the
privileges of citizen hip should be first
willing to renounce bin native citizen-
ship or allegiam. We suggest that Ar-
ticle 19 be stricken out.
B We acquiesce in the sentiment that
Sanford B. Hole be the first President of
the proposed Hawaiian Republic, and as
the regis'eied voters are so unanimous in
their choice of Sanford B. Dole for tlie
Presidency, we favor grant ng the Con-
stitutional Convention authority to elect
him for a four-yea- r term, with eligibility
to 7. All succeeding Presidents should be
elected by the direct vote of the duly
quu'iried voters. It - within the province
ot th- - Coosutu'iona' Convention to prc-o- se

13, 14, 15, 16, 17 and IS, Article 50, be
stricken out.
12 By linen 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14, Art-
icle 57, complete iwwer is placed in the
hands of a few. These Iine-- i are incon
sistent and c'ash with Section 'i, AriL-l-
1. We sugg st tint they be ttneken
out.
13. Class legHation is a very danger-
ous weapon. The middle or working
classes in all civilized countries are al-
most up in arms against it. It is the
gridiron with which monopoli-t- s would
burn the mark of the serf deep in the
flesh ot the p' j ir man. It is not in har-
mony with enlightened, orinnecord with
free institutions "One man one vot-,- "
is our motto We would suggest that
Article 76 be stricken out.
14. There should be an endeavor to
keen as far as possible within th- - bonds
of Republican simplicity We suggest
th..l Section Gaud 7, ArticleTS tieslri. ken
out. There is no object'on to an Ad-
visory Council formed on the lines of
the former t nvy Council. Legislative
power originated in the peopje, col-le- c
ively, only, and while they may
transfer thene functions to Representa-tue- s,
tlie Representatives cannot make
a transfer of ti is trust to another inde
pendent bnd. The notion of the Presi
dent appointing nve men with legis-la'i- ve
iHiwers is unsafe.
15. Wo would further suggest tl--
pioxisiuns be tnad-- i in tile prpoi--

strates and offices enumerated in line-18.-

10. We rn it to with-
draw jiovernment aid from terrain
denominational schois, and recom-
mend liberal appropriations in that
direction.
It is unfair to presume that the man-
agement of denominational schools
would act in any manner detrimental to
good government Wo be ieve that
the teachers will instill g
principles in the minds of the vo-in-
In this position we are sustained to a
great extent by the views o Min-
ister S M Damon and tho liberal edi
torials wmen nave laieiv appeared in
the daily Pacific Commercial Adver-
tiser
17. We are willing to grant the fran-
chise to women under the following con-
ditions:
(a). That if they be given men's
privileges, they accept men's hard-
ships.
(b). That thov shoulder arms and do
military duty in times of riot and war.
(c). That they permit the dissiptiion
of that indefinable law which from time
immemorial has marked the sicial relat-
ion-" of the two sexes, and which lias
protected woman in the enjoyment of
peculiar rights and courtesies, as tlie
weaker sex.
18 We, are of the opinion that once a
man is determined to swear allegiance
and qualify as a citizen under the Ke-pub-lic,
no question should arise as to
what his political sentiment had pre-viou- -ly
been. Treason stares one in the
taco upm violation of the oath of alle-
giance We advise the adoption of a
conciliatory policy.
19 The crown lands should be opened
tip for settlement. Small holdings and
associations proposing to colonize land
should be encouraged. Extra induce-
ment should be iffered to bona fi e eet-tle- rs.
Tha Government should improve
and cheapen means of traunportation,
thus furnishing a small farmer better
facility for conveying his product to
market.
20. We favor the levying of a differ-
ential tax. A graded h come tax should
be adopted. Under the present taxation
system the ricil man almost escapes tax
at ion, while the ioor are exce.-sivol- v
texed. This inequality should bo abol-
ished.
21 Tlie safety of tin, Republic should
not be jeopardized by injudicions reten-
tion. As law and order must hrt main-
tained, liberal police appropriations
shi mid be made.
i2 Sunddy h set apart hy custom as a
day of rest and recreation after sir day?

Strict Sunday legislation is a relic
ofrlieda)S of religious bigotry and in-
tolerance. It is iiicjinpatihlo with reli-
gious freedom, and do--s not make a
itenubtn! more hoi jr. We tugest a more
liberal Sunday law.
23 We feel th-- t should our recom-
mendations be accepted and m u'e por-
tions of the proposed new laws the pro-
posed Republic will be strengthened
thereby.
Delegate Smith moved reference to
the Committee on Legislature.
MinisterSmithsaidhedld not know
what the Committee on Legislature
had done. It was unfortunate for thn
petitioners that the petition came in

Committee on Executive.
Delegate Baldwin said he also
wanted to know what the Committee
on Legislature had done? They had
not done anything, aud he favored

there was no great (leniuid for the

Abies.
Tlie majority report wa9 adopted.
Minister Smith reported for the
Committee on L on Section
1 of Article 17. The committee re
commend the pasiage of Delegate
Carter's amendment as a substitute
for the section.
Tlie amendment is as follows:
"All persons born or naturalized in
the Hawaiian Islundi, and subject to
the jurisiliciion of the Republic, are
citizens thereof."
The amendment was adopted.
The same committee reported on
the proposed new article to be inserted
between Articles 57 and 5S. Tlie com-
mittee recommend the follow substi-
tute:
"If from any cause a general elec-
tion shall not be held at tlie appointed
time, tlie Minister of tho Int'rior
shall, without any unnecessary delay,
appoint another time f r the holding
of such election. And the election so
held, upon such appointment, shall
he deemed to be a general election."
Adopted.
The same committee reported on
Article 77. The committee recom-
mend Section 2 read as follows:
Section 2. For the purpose of ex--
amiu ng applicants for registration as
voters, anil determining their eligi-
bility, there shall be live boards of
registration. One for that portion of
the Island of Hawaii known as Puua,
Hilo and Hamakua ; one lor that por-
tion of tlie of awaii known as
Kona and Kohala ; one for the Islands
of Maui, lolokai, Laimi and Kahoo- -
lawe; one for the Island of O.iiiu, and
one for
.' the Islands of Kauai ..i Nii-ha- u.
Such hoards shall consist of
three members each, who shall he
appointed by the Piesident, with the
approval of the Senate The Presi lent,
subj, ct to such approval, may till till
vacancies, if any, ot such boards.
Provided, however, that tor the nrst
ehction held under this Constitution
the President, with the approval of
tbe Cabinet, shall appoint the mem-
bers of such board, and, with like up
proval, may till vacancies in such
boards which shall occur before the
first inee'ing of the Senate.
Appointments by the President dur-
ing a vacation of tlie Senate shall be
valid until the succeeding meeting of
that body
Members of any of such boards may
be removed by the President, with
the approval of the Senate.
Adopted.
Undei suspension of the rules Arti-
cle 25 was reconsidered, and the Attorney-G-
eneral propoed the following
amendment as a new section:
"In case of the absence from tlie seat
of Government of any member of the
Cabinet, the President may appoint
one of the remaining members of tlie
Cabinet to temporarily pel form the
duties of the member so absent. Any
such ad interim appointment shall
not, howeier, be.valul for moicthan
sixty days from the date of appoint-
ment."
Councillor Tenney moved the recon-
sideration of Article 7 (Previous Con-
viction or Acquittal.
Curr ed.
Delegate Viva9 moved that the pro-
viso allowing the right of appeal to
the Government in criminal cases be
stricken out.
Minister Smith spoke against the
motion and Delegate Vivas in its fa-
vor. The first speaker held toat the
objection was a mediaeval prejudice,
aud the second held that the proviso
was itself a return to medievalism.
Councillor Brown said this matter
was being considered in Great Britain.
The object of the proviso was to allow
the Legi-latu- re to enact laws if the
people desired.
Delegate Robertson favored Dele-
gate Vivas' motion. He considered
to give the right of appeal to tbe Gov-
ernment would bo a great bard-thi-
upon defendants. Many criminal
cases weio merely fights between two
individuals, for example, libel cases.
Those would be the cases in which the
right of appeal would be mad me of.
Minister Damon held that juries
were very just in this country, except
in political trials. In these cases de-
fendants would be persecuted and the
station house would become a Bastile.
He believed in giving even a political
prisoner a fair trial.
Minister Smith said this provision
would help to save the jury system.
A great many persons weie in favor
of abolishing the jury system alto
gether.

KAMEHAMEHA MANUAL.
Anniversary Exorcises Commenced
Under Pleasant Auspices.
The anniversary exercises at the
Kamehameha Schools began Tues-
day afternoon. The Class of '94
have digged" and pried and blasted
until they have fitted a suitable
homo for a class tree. They selected
a large-leave- d banyan, and chose a
conspicuous and favorable spot.
Invitations were issued to 150 of
their fair friends, or fast friends,
and the ceremonies of the occasion
passed off with great eclat, though
with republican simplicity. The
boys sang a favorite hymn, there
was a brief invocation, then came
the address of John Aea, chosen by
his classmates its their representa-
tive for tbe occasion. In earnest,
feeling words be gave utterance to
tbe sentiments appropriate to tbe
hour, and, while the band played
familiar airs, each of the class ad-
ded his pile of earth to tbe mound
around tbe tree. The Class song
was sung, followed bv the, Ch.- -
cheer. Arm If! tilt) IvntJ-- ntnm.l n,1

Kamehameha cheer rang out on
tbe air, and the crowd scattered,
needing no formal invitation to oc-
cupy the chairs around the tables
loaded with good cheer. Class
