HOUSE
lly concurring in tho amendment
mndo by tho Senato to the resnlu- i
Hon embodying the Oigaiilc Act '
amendments, tho Houso of Hepiesen
tatlves practically concluded 11b lis-1
bora this morning.
Cohen's untl-prohibltlon resolu
tion passed with flying colors, only
two dissenting votes being record
ed, those of Sheldon and Nukalckn
Cohen supported his resolution In
it stiung speech which pointed out
tho fallacy of allowing Wolloy tn
proceed with his campaign nt Wash
ington under tho prctenso that
he was representing the sentiment
of tho people of Hawaii. Cohen's
point that tho enactment of a Fed
ora 1 prohibitory Inw for Hawaii
would simply stamp Iho Terrltorj
ns unublo or unlit to .regulate lis In
ternal affairs, wus Indorsed by a
number of Houso members In sup
porting speeches.
Upon the convening of tho Houso
of Representatives this morning,
Representative Sheldon, chnlrman of
the rules committee, Introduced a
resolution Hint It wus tho sense of
tho Houso that no bill would he con
sidered by tho House dealing with
matters foreign to the cnuso for the
proclaiming of tho special session
proposed amendments to the Organ
ic Act.
Sheldon moved for tho ndoption of
his resolution, seconded by Furtado.
Tho resolution read: "Resolved
by tho Houso of Representatives of
the Tenllury of Hawaii In special
hcsslon thnt they will not, consider
hills not connected with the call or
tho Governor by proclamation, ami
that bills that may bo Introduced or
may be sent from tho Senato shall
bo tnblcd without debate.
long moved for tho postponement
of consideration of tho resolution,
stating that tho adoption of tho reso
lution "would bo a direct slap at tho
Senate," stating thnt yesterday tho
Senate had adopted a resolution, that
It would not consider any bills other
than thnso already Introduced.
Speaker Holstelu observed that tho
House had no oITlctal cognlzanco of
what had been done in tho Senato,
nddlng that tho resolution introduced
by Sheldon was of a highly nrlvllcced
chnracter, affecting tho rules and pro-
L-i-uiiro oi ino Mouse.
Douthllt then offered an oral amend
ment under a suspension of tho rules,
to tho effoct "that It is the senso of
this Houso that no bills other than
those affecting tho amendments tn tho
Organic Act will bo considered by
this Houso, excepting bills providing
ior mo expenses or tho special ses
sion of 1909."
Tlio amended motion wns adopted
with a unanimous voto, tho appropria
tion bills of tho expenses of tho Son
nto and Houso for tho spccinl session
woro then passed on second rcadng.
Hoprcsontatlvo Cohen's antl-prohi-bltlon
resolution was then taken up
and after Its reading by Clork Wood
