INCORRECT STATEMENTS.

tell its half a million of readers
what the facts are about the immi.
grafton dispute, between Japan
and Hawaii. 1t means to make
correct statement but fails, ow-
ing, no doubt, to the lack of sufi-
Gent information on the subject.
1t states that "the right to emf
CRATE from Japan to Hawaii was
carefully guarded by treaty."
emigration laws were enacted
by Japan, which instead of pro-
noting, prevented the flooding of
the islands by Japanese" under
this arrangement and guarded by
these laws, emigration went on
until last February, when sudden
ly the Hawaiian Government re-
fused to permit some japanese to
land, although, as the japanese
Government claims, the emf
grants came precisely as others
before them had Gomez " claims
for damages were made at once,
but pending the negotiation the
cry was raised that the Japanese
had hostile intention against the
islands, and the hasty conclusion
of the treaty followed" under
these circumstances, Japan has
certainly the right to expect no
tice of the intended treaty, and
a right to be consulted and heard
in behalf of her people, and to
complain of the deception prac-
tised> by Mr.. Sherman, who, she
asserts, promised that hasty ac-
ton should not be taken"
Although Harper's Weekly, un,
der the influence of Mr.. Carl
Shurz, opposes the project of an.
neXatiOn, it does not intend to
present the facts incorrectly. But
it has done so. We admit that
the treaty rights, and the Con
vention rights, and the rights and
Liabilities under our municipal
laws, on the subject of immigra
ton are rather confusing, and
have not yet been clearly stated
for public use. Nor has the diplo
matte correspondence been fully
published, and the sources of in
formation are limited.
1t would hardly be fair to us, fol
| Harper's Weekly to influence it,
several hundred thousands OF
readers, until it is in possession
of the correct facts.
We have been told that the Ha
waiian Government and commun
ity will not fairly state the case
and must not be believed. Thi

IMMIGRATION RESTRICTED.
Government Notifies Japan to
This Effect.

This Effect.
The Government seems determined
to take decided stand in the matter
of Japanese immigration, and the i'm
preston that any number Of immi-
grants from Japan may come here
must be wiped out.
In accordance with a decision of the
Cabinet, Japan has been requested,
through Minister Shimamura, to re-
strict the emigration to Hawaii, except
such as may come under the auspices
of the Board of immigration here. This
means that laborers will not be admit
ted except those whose contracts have
been approved by the board.

of interests here. Aside from the
valuable work done by Mr.. Hatch,
Mr.. Thurston and Mr.. Kinney,
the firms of Welch & Co. and
Williams, Dimond q Co. of San
Francisco, have done work of
which our people have really little
conception. They have had to CON
tend against a powerful monied in
terest in California, which reached
into the Senate of the United
States, and was felt in the Repub-
lican forces of the State. This OPP
position to annexation had been
carefully organized by trained
hands, was compact force, and
appealed directly to the self interest
of the large farming class. 1t was
effective, because there was a zone
man power" behind it, that was
rarely defeated.
Although the reciprocity treaty
was, and Is, of great value to the
State of California, the merchants
of San Francisco, for long time,
failed to appreciate the danger Of
this opposition, until it was fatty
declared in the Senate by Senator
Perkins. These firms, assisted by
otherstosom extent, took the mat
ter in hand, and quietly, thorough

the forces, which favored recipro
