INTERVIEWS.

Conversation with number of citizens
upon the Chinese amendment elected
the following views:
DIR. - think something ought to
be done. The proposition before the
House is burdened with so many pro-
visos and exceptions that it is as if one
said: am going to cut off your head,
but will except a portion of the left
whisker, piece of the ear, the end of
the nose, both eyebrows, the back of the
neck, and the scalp.
A prominent tailor says: If some
thing is not done, We shall have to leave
the country. Workmen are doing it
now, and nobody is spending any money.
The merchants down town are partly to
blame. They trust any Chinese who
come along and he sells goods for any
price and never expects to pay, and then
he gets bankrupt. don't know much
about the question before the Legisla-
ture. | had Chinese in my shop and
they learned the trade, because could
not get white men, and natives would
not work.
A well-known druggist says: have
not thought much about the question.
1t is important, but too deep for me.
Mr.. A. s. Hartwell says: l think no
amendment can be made which will not
be regarded by the Chinese as hostile to
them. The consequences OF such an
amendment will be extremely injurious
to this Kingdom. The mechanics will
be first to suffer, for capitalists can al
WAYS take care of themselves. 1t will be
a declaration on the part of the white
residents that the Chinese are not to be
treated with equality before the law. 1t
is very different here from California.
There it relates only to a small proper
ton of the population. Here, as long as
our staples continue what they are, the
main labor will be performed by Chinese
and Japanese. InCalifornia it is mostly
by whites. Statistics show that the
Chinese here are steadily decreasing,
moreover the same demand for class
legislation against Chinese will next be
made against Japanese and Portuguese,
who can work and live as cheaply as the
Chinese. The safety and welfare OF the
Kingdom require absolute equality be-
fore the law, This view will eventually
commend itself to the sober common
sense and right feeling of all. To vote
down promptly all attempts at class
legislation is the best way to secure
peace and prosperity to the group. II
has already been decided that statutes
restricting or preventing the landing OF
Chinese at these Islands, are constltu-
tional. Such statutes might also require
the registration of all such immigrants
while in this country.
Mr.. B. Ordenstein had not read the

Meeting of the rramways Company.

The Investors Guardian, London,
of July 21st has report of the statutory
meeting of the shareholders of the Ha-
waiian Tramways Company, Limited,
held Just previously. Mr.. II. R. Arm
strong in speech stated that the first
half mile of the track was then open.
He also read extracts from Honolulu
papers relating to the enterprise and
said: Application has also been made
to our representative by the President of
the Punahou College for short extern
sion of the Beretania-street line in the
direction of the college, for the purpose
of conveying students GONE 400 in
number) and their friends, who have
hitherto made use of very inferior ON
nibus service. Your directors have in
structed us to build this extension,
which is under a quarter of a mile in
length. In our opinion the greater part
of the line will be completed by Sept
embeT 18th, and the whole in working
order before the end of October"
The chairman, Col. Dawson, thought
they might rest assured that they had
connected themselves with a sound en-
terprise, and trusted that very soon they
should make it a commercial success.
In answer to question he added that a
quotation on the Stock Exchange had
been applied for. "The contractors
were to be paid in the shares not
allotted, and thus the shares had
been virtually all allotted. The share
list was open to inspection"

one of the ablest races of mankind. l
believe that they have before them
grand future, and one benefcent to man
kind, because 1 believe that they are to
become Christianized. cannot, how
ever, shut my eyes to the fact, that in
competition with all other races, the
Chinaman will crowd the others to the
wall in the struggle for livelihood.
From hundreds OF generations OF patient
thrift, he inherits qualities OF endurance,
industry and frugality, which enable
him to thrive where others starve. 1t
seems quite evident that in Hawaii, it is
a vital necessity for natives and whites
to be allowed to protect ourselves by
class legislation against the peculiar
power OF combination exercised by Chi
nese. Such legislation cannot be made
too soon, if we are not to be swallowed
up by the Chinese immigration. Let US
be kind and just, but let us save our
selves. like, on the whole, the form
of constitutional amendment presented
editorially in your paper.
S. E. BISHOP,
The Hawaiian gazette., 1888-09-11

Mr.. EDITOR: The arguments in re-
gard to restricting Chinese immigration
have not been exhausted. / desire to
make contribution to the arguments in
favor OF such restriction. One can read
ily see that if Hawaii alone refuses to
take measures OF restriction against Chi
nese immigration she will have to bear
the brunt OF their invasion to an excessive
degree. And this invasion would prob
ably be overwhelming and destructive.
The Chinese race doubtless has great
possibilities in its future. But the possi-
bilities available for our modern clvlllz-
alton are very remote. The aa fields OF
Hawaii will be very rich soil two thous-
and years hence. Christianity demands
of us that we give religious teaching to
the Chinese who are in our midst. In
order to present successful example OF
Christianity we must not allow the
country to be first paganized by deluge
of Cinnamon. In order to maintain a
civilization worthy of the name in this
country, We must have a population that
shall not be either in semblance or IN
fact like mere pawns on the board. We
need human beings whose ambitions,
social and moral, do not fall below
certain standard and are capable of in
definite development. Fifteen cents
day will maintain a Chinaman but will
not suitably maintain an Anglo-SaXon.
Civilization is expensive. Churches are
expensive So also are libraries, ly-
ceums, lecture-rooms, roads, wharves,
electric lights, in short all the appurte-
nances of civilization. The whole int1u-
Tha
Chinaman may not be an active law
breaker but he is very cunning evader
of the law. In proof of this witness the
difficulty which the Board OF Health find
in compelling observance in Chinatown
of its sanitary code. Even along the
streets of Honolulu the Chinaman out
RACES the proprieties not to say the de-
cencies of life; he thinks nothing OF
standing in the door of his shop, I'M
clothed to his waist in the open view of
all passers-by. This action on his part
may be done in perfect innocence and
guile:essness; it is none the less an
index of the low down and animal like
state OF his tastes and instincts.
How long think you will it take to
raise toa pitch ofrefinement and cultiva-
ton worthy of citizenship such sans
culottes as these?
1 speak from the standpoint of one
who has birthright in this country,
whose roots are fast in the soil of Ha-
wall, who wishes well to the country, to
all its inhabitants including the Chi
nese. Call Hawaii, if you please, a
school for the Chinese, still it is not well
for the scholars to be in such numbers
as to overawe the teachers. The best
interests of the Cinnamon themselves
demand that the number of their popu-
lation in this country shall be in very
limited numbers, that they be kept
under close surveillance, that they be
not allowed to live in idleness.
cannot but think that to postpone
legislative action on this matter is
merely to put off till future day the
reckoning with the evil that is heaping
up against us. +.
