did not seem to grasp the import
ant fact that, treaty or no treaty,
we had the right TO regulate all
alien immigration Ia any way we
saw It," This 10 only what the
BULLETIN has been saying all
along, reiteruting il against a false
impression published abroad--to !
the effect that Hawaii invited
Japanese immigration here, but
stopped it when II became too
much of good thing. The Ha-
wsiian Government has never
stopped Japanese immigration
coming under the conditions on
which it was invited, the chief one
OF which was that it should cor
respond to :ha demand for labor
as approved by the Government.
What came otherwise was merely
subjected to the regulations affect
ing immigrants OF all nationali.
ties equally, aud only so much OF
this class was rejected as failed to
come up to such regulations. The
Montreal Witness illustrates its
view of the situation with the
fable OF the mill that was ordered
to grind salt and could not be
stopped when wanted. This is
not correct. The Japanese labor
immigration mill started by the
Hawaiian Government was under
full control. 1t was private
emigration mill in Japan, pro-
noted by joint stock companies to
make profit on the export OF flesh
and blood, which refused to stop
until the Hawaiian Government
stuffed the spout at this end with
wholesome and impartial laws
made to regulate all general i'm
migration. Hawaii has a treaty
with Great Britain, comforting on
British subjects the right to freely
enter Hawaiian territory, etc.,
with the most favored nation
clause in it too. Yet If a Montreal
syndicate should be formed to
ship emigrants to these islands
for labor on speculation - the
same as the japan companies
operated-the people when they
came, unless invited under our
labor immigration regulations
would have to comply with the
laws here provided to prevent the
of undesirable in
habitauts, just the same as the
Japanese who we're shipped here
without requisition having been
made for them through our Board
of Immigration. Possibly the
immigration restrictions were in
advertently applied so as to work
injustice to some of the Japanese
refused admission, but japan has
thus far loftily declined to
discuss any question of in
dividual wrongs in the matter.
She arrogantly takes the position
that the Hawaiian immigration
laws, having in their administra-
ton shut out some japanese sub
jects, are in derogation of the
treaty of friendship between the
two countries. If only one-or
say a dozen-out of a shipload
numbering 500 to 1000 had been
rejected, probably japan would
not disdain to have the particulars
investigated. The principle is the
same, however, in the case of one
as of a million. Along with the
reflections were many admissions,
a fact that proves Hawaii's good

Yesterday morning the case Of the
two negroes-Curtis. who claimed to hail
from New York. and Kirk, who claimed
to hall from Philadelphia-was called
IN h Mayors Court for investigation.
The commonwealth was represented by,
Colonel Griffin. Mr.. Maupin and Mr..
owens, clerks at h Bank of Ports
Mouth were called and testified to the
best OF their knowledse ind belief that
GNrtis was the man who presented the
check for $3.50, signed by Jackson and
made payable to one Johnson, to be GER
tiled. Mr.: Owens said that he saw at
Il glance that 1T wa not Jackson's sig
nature, and told Mr.. Maupin lot TO cash
1t. The man then left. Mr.. %Efeybert
Yves called and identified Il check for
s25 made payable to one Lawrence,
signed by Jacobson, and said that Kirk
came into his bar and asked him to do
a small favor, and that was to cash q
check for $50. He locke ut il. saw that
1t was not ~Jacohson's writing, and re-
fused to cash the same. Then lie went
out and informed jacobson OH Sunday
about the transaction. Curtis was nut
OH the stand, and denied ever seeing ii
check. He said he became acquainted
with Kirk III Philadelphia about a year
ago, ana that five weeks az. lie cor
cluded to come South fer his health.
While at Old Point he mes Kirk; and
they came TO Portsmouth together. He

weeks aSo at Delmar, IN the N. Y. Z. &

to Mr.. Heybeit, but Mr.. Heybert was
positive about the man. and gave the
name OF the party to whom the check
was made payable. His Honor thought
the evidence was sufficient to send Kirk

May wheat they could get hold OF. Crop re-
ports were generally less favorable from Illi-
nois, Missouri, Michigan and Kansas. Some
Michigan reports say that the crop will not
exceed one-thtrd of crop. Kansas has re-
duced her estimate down to 80, 000 COO blu. Chi
cago advised that the grain fleet will start out
about the middle of next week with over s.
100000 blu of grain, but largely composed Of
corn. The superintendent of the Southern
Minnesota says that the season is the latest
for ten years
Reports from North Dakota and Northern
Minnesota are very gloomy. 1t is said that
not only is the prospect bad for seeding, but
as a matter of fact the farmers in the Red
river valley have lost all their seed wheat.

About 1910 p. m. the market became eX-
