Warn Away the Negro.

MR.. EDITOR:-Is it not time that
the negro be entirely eliminated from
consideration in the solution of our
labor problem?
The mixed character of our popula-
ton, although no more mixed than
that of the United States, has been
much urged as an argument against
annexation. The anti-anneXationists
in the mother country have endeavored
to black-ball us on account of this lit
tie mote in our eye, with seeming un-
consciousness of the big beam of the
same material that obscures their own
vision: just as the beet manipulatorS
over there have cried out against our
cheap Asiatic labor as being an in
superable objection to either reclpro-
city or annexation, while quietly en-
pIoying the same class of labor them
selves.
Now. without any regard whatever to
the views that may be held by the peo-
pIe of the United States on this sub
ject. / submit that we do not want to
add to our already mixed population a
race possessed of such markedly diver
gent features as the "Sun-burnt Yam
kee' nor hold out to him the slightest
couragement to migrate to our
shores. whatever may be his virtues or
want of them While the desirability
of bleaching our national complexion
is being so strongly urged, why intro
duce burnt cork? The thing Is incon-
sistent. Indeed, as a clause in the an
nexation treaty provides that no Chi
nese shall be allowed to enter the
United States from these Islands, an
other clause might equitably have
been inserted to prohibit the migra-
ton of "American" negroes from that
country to this.
We have here besides the native Ha-
waiian and the whites, three distinct
races. constituting quite suflc1ent va
rietv of labor TO be had in sufficient
numbers for all purposes If only per-
nitted TO come All three are races
that have become Injured TO labor
1-bev are industrious and frugal. They
have evidently come TO stay. Jud1cIous
SELECTION from among those who are
dacirius TO immigrate, and restriction
os to the number of those who may be
allowed 10 come, ought to produce re-
cI1Its sufficiently satisfactory to pre-
o1uda the necessity of experimenting
11-itb such doubtful distractions as the
c,,t-throat Malay, the indolent Hindu
ond South Sea Islander, or the dark
visaged American.
Ave ayei Let our planters take
warning and warn away all ins1nuat-
ING agents who would like to engage
in the introduction of these new classes
