attention Of the civilized world,
reached the jurors verdict last
Monday afternoon. Coughlin, Burk

three years Imprisonment, and

The inconsistency Of the verdict
is ITS most conspicuous feature. II

guilty Of an atrocious murder-a
butchery Of supreme horror and

deserved the utmost punishment

they were found guilty, and

that which their guilt deserved, it
was failure Of justice and

THE IRREPRESSIBLE C0GLIE.

The Japan Mail Of Aug. Oath says:
There is much to be said in support
of the attitude adopted by the
United States of America and Aus
tralasia in respect of the question of
Chinese immigration. Here, for ex-
ample, is powerful argument fur
nished by British experience in the
native states of the Malay Peninsu-
la "The last police report from
the protected State of Perak, in the
Malay Peninsula, referring to Chin
csc secret societies, says that in 1883,
as in the previous year they caused
'endess trouble and anxiety al
though in 1887 four members of the
Ghee Hin Association were senten-
ced to twenty years rigorous i'm
prisonment for conducting an agency
for their society in different parts of
the state. The report continues,
that greater curse to the peace and
prosperity of the state could not ex-
ist than the presence of these So
cieties, the very rules of which foster
criminals. and whose agents are ever
ready to come forward to bail the
basest of them. Their organization
is 80 perfect, their power of striking
a blow against the government so
easy and swift, that in a new coun-
try, where the security Of life and
property is all important, their pre-
sence cannot be otherwise than a
bane.' Half the Chinese in Perak
are members of secret societies,
tickets being found upon them
whenever the police had occasion to
search them"
There is evidence that the Chinese
coolies wherever they are, betray the
same reprehensible characteristics
which have made their presence here
offensive and undesirable. Wher-
ever they have secured a foothold in
countries nearer their own than we
are, they have at last been recog-
nized as stubborn in race character
istics and incapable Of assimiIating
their habits and their ideas of sub
lection to the law to any strange
standard. This is their history even
when in association with other Ash
attic races of the same general family,
and the difference, of course, in
creases with chronological diversity.
The Coreans, japanese, Burmese and
Malays fear or despise the Chinese
coolie, and if these cannot abide to-
gether why should it be expected
that other nations should tolerate
them?

SCANDAL.

Why is there so much scandal in
our little community? There are
very few persons in our city, how
ever blameless their lives may be, of
whom the scandal-monger has not
some choice i'll natured story. And
with what delight the scandal-mon-
ger fastens upon the new conner,
and fills him full of the most awful
tales concerning every one the new
conner is likely to come in contact
with. This evil of talking scandal
- not confined to the women, though
hey are generally charged with it..
The men are every bit as bad. There
are some who take positive delight
n spreading tales of their acquaint-
ances, who never get hold of an I'M
savory morsel, but they must rush
around and tell it to every one they
meet. The scandal-monger even in
vades the editors sanctum, and
tries to get some of his garbage into
print, or he will write it in letters
from the other islands. He does
not, however, receive much mercy
from editors; and his contributions
quickly find their way into the waste
basket.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1889-09-12

ment how could any official be salts
fed to admit to the rights and priv
leges of American citizenship immi-
grants just landed, ignorant of the
English language, paupers, an
archists? at Is self evident that he
who cannot read and write cannot
intelligently take the oath of citizen
ship: he who cannot support him
self cannot support the Constitution
of the United States: he, who is
guilty of immoral or disorderly con-
duct, cannot be well-disposed to the
peace and happiness of the country"
It is notorious, however, that the
courts of justice have been prosti-
tuted to the encouragement Of the
political bosses, who have ''rail-
roaded" thousands of aliens into the
privileges of citizens. Good men
have worked at this sacriligious
travesty of justice, in order to
secure the success of their political
party, no matter how unjustifable
the methods of the political manipu-
lators. General Grant in his annual
message in 1874 called attention to
the growing evil of fraudulent as
we'll as illegal naturalization; for
the negligence and inattention of
public officials has made the law
itself contemplate, and from the
basest of motives legal demands
have been made and sold, which i'm
peril the honor of the nation and
may embroil at any time it's rela-
tons with foreign powers.
AS the law now stands, no Chinese,
Japanese, or other Asiatic can be
lawfully naturalized. The law at
first limited the privileges of natur-
alization to free white persons.
This was modified July IA, 1870, by
applying it's provisions also to
"aliens of African nativity and to
persons of African descent" In
order to make this point perfectly
clear, Congress passed law May 6,
1882, that "no court shall admit
Chinese to citizenship" Whatever
exclusive legislation this Hawaiian
Kingdom may adopt, it certainly
has an illustrious example, if not a
justifable precedent, for such class
legislation in exclusion of the Chi
nese, in the legislation of the United
States.

EMIGRATION AND NATURALIZATION
IN THE UNITED STATES.

1t may interest our readers just
at this time, when the Chinese pro-
blem is being discussed, to know
some facts in regard to the policy of
the United States Government in
favoring or restricting immigration
into that country. The Declaration
of Independence charged that the
King of Great Britain had zen
deavored to prevent the population
of these States, for that purpose
obstructing the laws for the natural
ization of foreigners; refusing to
pass others to encourage their mi
grafton hither; and raising the con-
ditions of new appropriations of
lands" Encouragement to people
of other nationalities to seek new
homes in the States has been the
handspring of much Of the advance
ment and prosperity of the Amer
lean people during the first century
of its history under the Constitu-
ton.
It is only within the last decennial
period that occasion has risen for
the development of a different senti-
ment, and the necessity for a policy
of restoration. By the census of
1880 there were 100000 native
born citizens; and 100000 of foreign
birth. But while the native popula-
ton was more than six and one-half
times that of foreign birth, "this
one-sixth Of the population fur
nished nearly one-third of the in
sane, more than one-half of the
paupers, and nearly a fourth of the
criminal class This disproportion
of evils and ills, constitutes a con-
slant menace to the peace and good
order of society, serious tax upon
the public revenues, and an intoler-
able burden on the penal and chart
liable institutions of the country"
But this condition of things has
not been brought about from any
lack of sound legislation in regard
to this matter The naturalization
law enacted April IA, 1902, provides
the method and conditions, accord
ing to which-and not otherwise.
says the statutes-an alien may be-
come a citizen of the United States.
1t preseribes among other conditions
that the court before which he ap-
pears shall be satisfied that he shall
have resided at least one year within
the State, "and that during that
time he has behaved as a man of
good moral character, attached to
the principles of the Constitution of
the United States, and well-disposed |
to the peace and good order of the
same" In view of such require !
