Mr.. S. M. Damon, Acting Minister
of Foreign Affairs stated this after
noon that he had not yet received
any official notification in regard to
any eventual action of the Japanese
Government. He admitted that if
a step in regard to the stopping Of
further immigration to Hawaii had
been taken by the Japanese Govern
ment, it would not be a surprise to
him and his colleagues. The Ha-
waiian administration is prepared
to meet the emergency now fore
shadowed and there will be ample
opportunities for the planters to
secure another class of plantation
laborers, either from China or India.

If the report is true and japanese
immigration has been stopped, the
sincerest thanks are due to japan
which has shown her friendliness
to Hawaii by preventing a move
which eventually would prove
DISASTROUS to the independence Of
Hawaii. We believe that the Japa'
nese Government would have been
willing to stop the exodus OF Japa-
nese to Hawaii years ago if our
Government had made proper repre-
sentations and shown the danger to

the autonomy OF the country, il an

make Hamlet than the actors art.
Every detail of the performance showed
that the production had been carefully
thought out by a student of Shakespeare
To quote one instance as an example: On
the first entrance of the players the Payer
Queen, whom Hamlet addresses as young
lady" was STRIPPING, wearing doublet
and nose. This was historically correct,
for in Shakespeare's time all young
lady" parts were played by youths.
The per rtormance vas given with
scarcely any cuts, and in consequence was
much more impressive than in the mutt
lated form in which it is generally pre-
sented.
SINNERS impersonation of Hamlet was
extremely picturesque and romantic. In
the more lmpassiohed scenes he rose to
powerful heights of passion, particular

acting won her the hearty sympathy of
the audience.

Constantine's Polonius is especially
worthy OF mention. In consequence of its
success, Hamlet will be repeated next

Up TO the present writing the iudl-

that economy should lie the watch
word, has not boon kept.
A million dollars TO run the State
government, added to the amounts
necessary to maintain the couaty,
city and town governments and the
schools for two years, will swell the
aggregate tax burdens OF the people TO
serious proportions. In the Governor

prlalions be- carefully scanned, that

When all this is done, II tho total Of
