TESTIMONY FROM THE ISLANDS

n MONG the mperialists and the annexatoniss
I \ it is favorite boast that by making Hawaii
and the Philippines part of Our territory we
shall open up new fields for white labor and provide
American workingmen with opportunities to make
homes for themselves in the islands of the ocean and
erect there commonwealth noted for liberty law
and prosperity those that make up the Union.
The Call has repeatedly exposed the folly and in
some instances the criminal falseness of these state
ments We have now to add to argument testi-
riony on the subject direct from the islands In the
course of review OF the labor situation the Honolulu
Independent of May II says: "Mr Damon is one
of the kindest and conservative employers of la
bor and yet we are told that number of his re-
Gently imported Italian laborers tried to clear out in
the Australia yesterday, and that Mr. Damon had to
use the existing laws and the police to stop the men
who are under contract to him
In another note on the same. subject, and dealing
always with specific instances and not with abstract
propositions, the Independent says 'We daily see
large number Of Gaicians in the chain gang working
at the quarries and the roads They are white
men; they are the class that philanthropist of the
official organ wants to make the snew and bone Of
these islands as small id sma) farmers, and yet
they prefer to remain under the tender of Mr..
Doles jaier to returning to slavery plantation
Returning to the subject on the following day, the
its power to force planters to invege white aborers
to the islands, and it then goes to say: The day
is gone by when that could be done because the slav
cry on Hawai's plantations is known all over the
civilized world. L'Orange years ago induced nunl-
Der of Norwegian laborers to come here by telling
them that gold was lying around the roads-and he
had to flee the country while the Norwegian Govern
r,ent sent a special commissioner to Honolulu. The
poor Galicians who paradng streets in prison
garb came here under equally false pretenses
That is the record of white labor in Hawaii as il
stands now Italian workingmen who induced
to go to the islands seeking to escape from the
employ of one OF the kindest OF Hawaiian employers
while others working prisoners in criminal gat
on the streets. Whether that OF white workngmen OF
Chinese cooe the labor is hardly better than that o
serfdom but STILL the Independent puts it. the cry
goes on: Send for more laborersl If we can't get
japanese get Italians, and if can't get Americans
let us have Spaniards-anything will do as long as
more plantations are promoted.

AS the time for completing annual assessment work on ulpatented min- Ing claims for the year 1899 is near at hand, 1t is not Inappropriate to call thereto. The following timely article
 taken from the columnsof the Mimi z
 and Scientific Press may prove If
 much benefit. "After discovery the
 locator Is allowed certain periods to
 perfect his location, and the period of
 one year from the first of January
 next succeeding tie date of location
 in which to perform his Sl00 worth of
 assessment work. Failure to perform
 the assessment work does not itself iG-
 validate the location, for it remains
 intact until relocation is made by
 another party, when the rights of the prior locator ceases immediately. The only way in which an original locator
 may save claim upon which he has failed to perform the required annual labor is by resuming work before any other person claims the ground by virtue of relOcation--and the assess
 ment work so commenced must be completed the claim holder using
 reasonable diligence in its perlor-
 nance. A locator who mas allowed
 his claim to become subject to relOca-
 tion by reason of failure to perform the assessment work cannot save it by relocation, as this would permit him
 to hold his claim the same as though it were the original location and by repetition he might thus hold the claim indefinitely, and as the law does not limit the number of locations a person may take, single individual might locate and control large num- Der of claims in single district and hold them to the exclusion of all others without performing any work, and this is contrary to the purpose and intent of the law. As an original 1 locator cannot treat his own failure to | perform or resume work as the basis | of new and valid relocation, it nee essarily follows that one of several | locators seeking to obtain the entire | title by reason of the failure of any of | them to fulfill the requirements of l the law, is likewise prohibited from such location.

While enumerating many of the paying mines of Yavapai county, and pointing out the conditions which demonstrated their merit, the Prescott Courier wisely says: ''lf you want to mine for profit, first get the mine, then have the courage to sink on it. Don't expect too much from nature at the grass roots. AS far as this county is concerned, every mine that has been sunk to the depth of 300 feet is today great bonanza" The same can be truthfully said of the mines oi GIla county; and we have yet to learn of an instance where deep mining has proved a failure in Arizona.

As an essential, then, of happy exist ence, do you give your eyes attention in proportion to their importance?

California papers, assisted by the
 Mining and Scientific Press, are urging
 upon the public the necessity for bet
 ter roads, especially in the mining
 districts of that state. Speaking of poor roads, the Press says" It may be said that no progress in mining, no revolution in the science or art of economically treating ore, is so impor- tant an item in the cost and profit Of mining as cheap travel. Bad roads keep out investors, kill enterprise, make costly all movements. and keep a community behind the times" The article does not apply to California alone but will fit many localities in Arizona, and more particularly so in Gila county. The need of a good wagon road to the Gun creek section is made manifest when it is known that the enterprising merchants of Winslow are devising means of con- structing a road from the Santa Fe Pacific to this promising mining field, furnishing an inlet for the vast amount of machinery that will ulti- mate ly be needed there, and opening a market for an incalculable amount Of goods that will be consumed in the operation of such mining field as the Tonto country promises to be in the near future. The trade and traffic of that section rightfully belongs to Globe, and the citizens of Gila county should see to it that our trade is not diverted by our neighbor on the north.
