Our Treaty with Japan.

Washington: The full text of the
| treaty of the United States with Japan,
recognizing the latter as a modern,
enlightened nation, has been made
public. Running throughout the new
treaty are the concessions recognizing
Japan courts and laws as ample for
Americans as well as natives. This is
the chief feature of the treaty. The
old consular courts in which the
u. :. consuls tried cases at japanese
treaty ports, are abandoned. Instead
of them all cases, civil and criminal, in
which an American is concerned, will
be tried by the native courts. The
right of Japan to make her own tariff
laws is also recognized.
The United States secures many sub
stantial advantages. The missionaries,
who make up such n very large class
in Japan, are guaranteed freedom of
worship and protection in that wor-
ship. The main concession, however,
is that of Article >, by which Japan is
opened up to American commerce.
Heretofore Americans have been re-
stricted to a few treaty ports Of
Japan. They could not reside
or carry on business or even
travel in the interior. However, every
corner of the country is opened to
Americans. They can establish bust
ness and manufactures, lease lands,
etc. 1t is the opening of the heart of
Japan, hitherto inaccessible, TO Amer
lean enterprise and commerce. In
giving the japanese similar right TO
settle throughout the United states.
care has been taken to provide that
their coming must be subject to our
alien labor and immigration laws.
Without doubt the treaty will be rati-
fled by the senate aS soon as reached.

Upper peuninsula Homestead Land Cases.
" washington; The federal supre me
coo'TYL has decided~ the homestead
cascs in Michigan, clc opinion being
declared by Justice Brewer, all. the
other justices concurring. The deci-
sion is victory for the homesteaders,
ana the effect Is to confirm the title of
upper peninsula settlers if the settle
ment was made prior to May 1, 1855.
The decision covers Three test cases.
The principal one of the three is that
of the Lake Superior Ship Canal, Rail
road and Iron company against Walter
a. Cunningham, and is decided in his
favor on the ground that the canal
Company took nothing by reason of its
original selection. The original title
Of the canal company is held to be
absolutely void, but as to all the lands
v'fthin the railroad limit not covered
by homestead settlement of May l.,
9ssS, its title is held to be confirmed
by the act of March .. 1889. Hence
Cunningham, who settled ppor to Nav
2, lsnS, gets his land In the Finn
case, who settled after May /, 1888,
she decision is against him. In the
Nonohue case, he is held to be owner
nj an undivided half with the canal
company.

CAN GET PORTUGUESE.
j. M, ViVas Says There Will Be
No Trouble.

'ln his speech at the open meet
ing of the American League a few
nights ago." said J. NJ. Vivas
yesterday, "Mr Marsden said
that it would be impossible to get
any Portuguese laborers to come
here as they will be all needed for
Africa. This j. mistake on Mr..
Marsden's part.
"The emigration Of the Portu-
guese to Africa has stopped. While
it was going on, the Portuguese
Government paid all the expenses
of the emigrants and their fami-
lies, and provided household uten-
sils. This the government has
stopped, as the Portuguese colo
MES there are now almost filled. 1t
is the same in Brazil. A short
time ago large number of nv
countrymen went to Brazil, but
now, as the conditions there are SO
unsettled, emigration in that direc-
ton has entirely ceased.
81 can assure you that there will
be no trouble in obtaining all the
Portuguese labor that is needed if
it is wanted. 1t will be easier to
get them now than it was in 1880,
when so many came here, for the
reason that times are very bad in
Portugal, and my countrymen
would be CAD of chance to come
back. A number of families who
left here have returned, and they
all say that labor for the islands
could be easily obtained.
There are several men here who
are well connected in Portugal who
would be willing to go there and
bring out any number of laborers.
Another source of labor that
has never been tried here, is the
Cape de Verde Islands. These is
lands are a Portuguese colony, and
the negroes there would be only too
glad to get chance to come here.
They make good laborers and could
be easily obtained.
This talk of not being able to
get Portuguese labor is simply a
plan to get Asiatic labor into the
country. If the planters want Ash
atlcs OF course they will have them,
but II they are sincere in their de-
sire to get Portuguese, can guar
antee that there will be no trouble
in obtaining them"
