The Difficulty Regarding Immigration

SAN Francisco, June THE steamer
Coptic arrived last evening from Homo
lulu, bringing advices upto May 81.
According to the latest information
procurable the difficulty between Japan
and Hawaii, growing out of the immi-
grafton question, has been increased
rather than diminished by the diplo-
matte proceedings. officers on board o.
the japanese cruiser Nainiwai, now at
Honolulu, state that a second Japanese
man-of-war is now en- route to Homo
lulu and that a third vessel is about
to depart from Yokohama for the
islands.
Mrs. Shimamura, wife of the Japan
ese minister here, had arranged TO
leave for Japan on June S. The in
tended departure caused a rumor in
Honolulu to the effect that the minister
would soon follow her. He admitted
he was not satisfied with the answer
of the Hawaiian government in regard
to the immigrant controversy, and he
gave close friends to understand that
unless a reply satisfactory to him were
made he would depart for Toxic, there
by severing diplomatic relations be-
tween Japan and Hawaii.

The property owners on North Main
street, between Lloyd and Coal, have
quietly agitated the subject, and this
week a petition will be in circulation
to secure the required number of
signers. Those in the square below
should follow the good example of
their neighbors, and complete the

CHIEF CAUSE.

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys
is the chief cause of bladder troubles So
the womb like the bladder, was created for
one purpose, and if not doctored too much
is not liable to weakness or diseased, except
in rare cases. It is situated back of and very
close to the bladder, therefore any pain,
disease or Inconvenience manifested in the
kidneys, back, bladder or urinary passage is
often by mistake attributed to female weak
ness or womb trouble of some sort The
error is easily made and may be as easily
avoided. To find out correctly, set you
urine aside for twenty-four hours; sedi-
ment or settling indicates kidney or bladder
trouble. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great
kidney, liver and bladder remedy is soon
realized. If you need a medicine you should
have the best. At druggists fifty cents and
one dollar. You may have sample bottle
