A PROBLEM IN HAWAII Shall Chinese Laborers Be Excluded From the Islands, While Bars Are Let Down to the Japs—Former the Better Workmen of the Two [CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE] Honolulu, Territory of Hawaii, May 19. EDITOR GAZETTE:—One of the greatest questions before America today is what shall be the future relations between the people of the United States and the people of China. In the near future a new treaty is to be made between America and China. Before that is done, the intelligent thinking people, not of one section only, but of the whole country, should carefully consider this question. Large interests, present and future, are involved, and in the cause of right and liberty and the future development and prosperity of the United States, this important matter should receive careful attention. Hawaii is becoming not only the most remarkable place in the Pacific, but is fast growing to be one of the important world centers. Here are gathered people from all the great nations. Here in Honolulu the East and the West, the Orient and the Occident, constantly meet in friendly intercourse. The world comes to us, and Hawaii is now becoming a great international experimental station. Almost every man of world wide fame and every traveler will in time surely touch at these Pacific Islands. The visit of the great American fleet this summer will the Hawaii Promotion Committee the general prosperity of the Island. 3. To bring the Chinese labor into more friendly touch to the American interests of the country. 4. To show that the Chinese wall are loyal to this American history and wish to help in its development, prosperity and welfare American ideals. 5. To bring about more fort, among the Chinese, along motion lines. The views of Secretary Stuart Chinese Exclusion regulations, generally given from "The North Atlantic Review," make interesting news. It has also been well said that Straus' views, as given, may be regarded as the view of the Executive he says: 'I would not suggest any in the established policy of right including Chinese laborers of every description, both skilled and unskilled." "But the advocates of the adoption of a limited number of Chinese workers for Hawaii will find that adoption of the policy advocated by Secretary Straus the government gone quite as far as it can be expected until there is a radical change in opinion among the legislators nation, who fear the labor keenly as his Satanic Majesty is abhor holy water." This is very true. The Chinese Hawaii can expect very little Congress "until there is a change of opinion among the leaders of the nation." We might further that there will be no "of opinion among the legislators nation" until the public opinion on the public opinion of the great American people is educated a fairer view of the subject. I aim of the present movement the Chinese of Honolulu to bring important world centers. Here are gathered people from all the great nations. Here in Honolulu the East and the West, the Orient and the Occident, constantly meet in friendly intercourse. The world comes to us, and Hawaii is now becoming a great international experimental station. Almost every man of world wide fame and every traveler will in time surely touch at these Pacific Islands. The visit of the great American fleet this summer will bring Hawaii more prominently than ever before the world. Great movements affecting the East and the West may have their origin in Hawaii. CHINESE WANT BARS LOWERED Honolulu, April 26 The Chinese of Hawaii have inaugurated an educational campaign to be prosecuted on the American mainland in an effort to modify popular opinion with reference to the admission of Chinese immigrants to Hawaii. It is hoped that by the time of the next session of Congress a modification of the present restrictions may be secured. To this end a considerable fund has been raised to be spent in sending information to the newspapers throughout the country. The pleasant relations which the Chinese have always succeeded in maintaining with the other races in Hawaii, and the fact there is no sentiment against them there, is grounds for the hope that something may be accomplished from the movement. Many of the local chinese are American citizens, having been either Hawaiian born or naturalized by the Hawaiian monarchy prior to annexation. CHINESE MEET AND MAKE NEW PLANS Honolulu, May 1. There was a special meeting on April 30 of the three committees appointed at the Chinese mass meeting of April 20. The members as follows form the executive committee of the present Chinese movement: Rev. Mr. Thwing, C. K. Ai, Chu Gem, K. Kim Fook and Ho Fon. Yee Chim, Lam Kam Chin, Ching Shai, Chun Keng Hom and Mo Man Ming. Wm. Y. Kwai Fong, Chun Ming, Chang Kim, Goo Kwai Long and Luke Chan. A special finance committee was appointed to raise funds for pressing the movement for securing a limited number of Chinese for Hawaii. At a time when this policy elusion has been so thoroughly that there remain in the United States only about 70,000 Chinese—less one-tenth of one per cent of our population—little danger need be hended from a full and fair reception of the subject and a recount of the laws upon a juster basis. A more opportune moment this present can hardly be desired reaching a better understanding China on the subject of Chinese migration, and for adjusting the spirit of our national policy elusion." It is this better understanding China on this subject that is required. There is practically no Chinese feeling in America, except one locality: That feeling most country. The "tail wags the dog has not made up in some day the dog will wag The Chinese seek to help in about a definite opinion, and friendly feeling for the Chinese. E. W.

It was also voted to form in Honolulu a Chinese Promotion Committee. A committee was named to perfect the organization, and also to arrange for some possible connection with the Hawaii Promotion Committee. The committee consists of Messrs. Thwing, Goo Kwai Long and C. K. Ai. The aim of the organization is: 1. To promote the interests of the Chinese of Hawaii. 2.

Following the driving of another big 12 inch well and the sinking of a large shaft in water bearing lands north of town contracts are being awarded for nearly five miles of flumes and cement mains, comprising the fourth unit of the Beaumont irrigation system. The new unit is being designed by Engineer Gervais Purcell of Los Angeles, who has been retained in the capacity of consulting engineer to develop an already efficient water system into one of greater scope and capacity. Through the efforts of the California reforestation association thousands of young pine trees and fir trees are being planted on the slopes of the San Bernardino mountains north of Beaumont, thereby making more efficient the future conservation of moisture on the watersheds that supply the Beaumont valley. The visit of President Neeland of the Redlands and Oakland railway to Redlands this week and the announcement that ties are actually on the ground with which to begin work on the new road that is to eventually extend through Beaumont, has added tone to the Beaumont land market. Los Alamitos A trip over the 8000 acres of beet land contracted for the Los Alamitos sugar company showed a good stand of beets, all thinned and growing nicely. From present indications the crop should equal that of last year. Many of the farmers are able to get water onto their beets from wells. On the ranch of the Montana land company a portable 40 h. p. Western gas engine pumping plant has just been installed, a short distance from which there is now in operation another 20 h. p. portable outfit with one and one-half miles of galvanized iron pipe strung out through which streams are now pouring in full force into the midst of a field of three miles square of beets, all a ten inch pipe will carry. Four hundred acres under contract with the Lawrence agricultural company is being watered from the factory pumping plant. In the peatlands there are irrigation facilities for 1000 acres of beet land. From the 16 inch well with a 100-inch flow it is expected that 1000 acres of beets on the F. R. Bixby tract will get water and capacity.

Four hundred acres under contract with the Lawrence agricultural company is being watered from the factory pumping plant. In the peatlands there are irrigation facilities for 1000 acres of beet land. From the 16 inch well with a 100-inch flow it is expected that 1000 acres of beets on the F. R. Bixby tract will get water and a like acreage on the ground of the tenants of the Bixby land company. Although the rainfall since February 20th has hardly been worth recording, on the whole it is believed the crop will be equal to, if not greater, than that of last season, and with the illustrious "J. W. Reilly" we say: It haint no use to grumble and to cry. It's jest as cheap and easy to rejoice; When God sorts out the weather and sends dry W'y dry's my choice. J. L. Elam of the Montana land company has put in operation a unique scheme of taking fertilizer from the stables of the dairy herd and shoveling it into the sump, sending it through the pump mixed into the stream of irrigation water. By this method the fertilizer is distributed evenly and applied in liquid form, being thoroughly dissolved as it passes through. The supply of pulp being practically exhausted except to the beet raisers many farmers are taking advantage of the opportunity to get a supply of molasses to put on their hay for cows. While not strictly a milk producer in the sense the sugar beet pulp is, it is valuable to assist in keeping cows in good flesh while consuming other more succulent fodder which may at the same time be utilized in the milk producing animal economy.
