Noble Williams said as represent
ing the mechanical interests he would
favor the motion by the Noble from
Hamakua. There was strong objec-
ton to the unrestricted immigration
of Asiatics, neither the foreign nor
the Hawaiian workman could survive
in competition Herewith. He was
not sugar planter, but, speaking
for mechanics, he knew that their
prosperity depended thereon and he
favored the passage of the bill. He
did not desire in any way to see this
country become an Asiatic colony,
but he thought, that it was eminent
ly proper to have a fair return for
money invested.
