to the contrary The supporters of the
American Union Party here wish TO
Iemphatically refute the accusation
made against them that they are oppos.
ing the sugar interests by supporting
the labor clause Of the American Union
Party. They feel that legislation which
would shut off immigration of Asiatics
before other suitable labor could be sub
stituted would be an unwarranted in.
justice to our man industry, and
that Asiatic immigration under
strong restrictions would be all that
could be wished for at present, but that
it is extremely necessary for the future
welfare of the middle classes, and for
the furtherance of the annexation
cause, that total prohibition of Asiatic
immigration must be the eventual re-
suit, and that the sugar industry should
make some small sacrifice to bring
about such result and supply this
country with desirable class of
settlers.
