A CALM VIEW.

EDITOR BULLETIN Several artl-
cles have appeared in the BULLETIN
(June 2nd and l4th) from CORE
spondents, who ignored the exist
ence of any other party in this
country but selfish ones.
l intended to protest against this
long ago, and in fact wrote my ideas
down for publication, but as often
hesitated to rush into print.
Other people have acted differ
emily and their action has induced
me to protest again. / shall avoid
personality and not use such ex-
pressions as missionary and crank,
etc., but l shall endeavor in q busi-
ness-like way to contradict certain
assertions.
Did you ever hear the cry: "The
Chinese must go?" l never did. 1
heard about restriction, limitation,
ETC., but that is all.
Are all men born free and equal !?
Decidedly not, such phrases are an
tiquated. All educated Americans
are in favor of laws, that keeps the
paupers of any country from their
shores and particularly the Chinese.
Are not the Australian Colonies
doing the same? Are Mr.. Y and
his cook equals?
That SANDER on the importers does
not deserve any notice, unless the
Christian gentleman means to say
that the Jews are worse than the
Chinese. For all respectable firms,
1 am authorized to state that some
body did not tell the truth. Some
people are fond of statistics, but
they put too much value upon them
For instance, ''for the crime of
adultery only nine convictions were
made of Chinese and for drunken
ness only 23."
Drunkenness is easily discovered
and / am willing to admit that most
Chinese are in sympathy Ga good
word occasionally with the Blue
Ribbon League. These figures
prove that liquor is not the root Of
all evil, and that only nine have
been caught adulterating. But how
many have not been caught. Is
there any man on these islands, who
knows something about life and
who can believe that only nine
Cinnamon committed adultery? Are
all criminals discovered, and if so
are they all convicted.
Another point, everybody has the
right to come to these islands, make
money, take his pile and leave.
This has been true heretofore, but
are those the men that should rule
the country. l say decidedly
"No!" They do not care for the
future of the country, and the coun'
try does not need to care for them
Tax them, when they are here, fol
their money invested abroad, ta'
them for all their money, whicl
they take away from this country
But there is another party, it is tn
Hawaiian Patriotic Party who hav
come here to live, to earn thei
daily bread and perhaps more, VIII
have their families here to live an
to die on the islands. These forr
the party, mostly interested in tn
welfare and the future of the Hawa
ian Islands. For their protectio
all laws should be made. Th
party includes all good natives an
halfwhites and l am one of tn
party. In the name of this party
protest against flood of Chimes
coolies, as we desire to live in
country of peace and decencJ
where happy families can enjoy th
present and the future. My Chi
dren shall not dwell in country
where the largest population con
slsts of demoralized coolies.
/ have no objection that tn
Chinese gentlemen work on planta
tions, serve as cooks (even for tn
Anti-Chinese Committee, have thei
rice plantations, and that the bes
and old Chinese residents, marie
to natives, carry on their bushes
as heretofore,- but they shall nc
have all, The Native and Euror
can kamaainas are entitled to
share and they must be protected
Mr.. Editor, i have endeavoure
to put this matter before the publ
as clear as possible, although l fe
like fighting any one, who so deci
edly advertises himself as again
Hawaii and the future welfare
the Hawaiians and their kamaaina
