San FRANCISCO. Oct. ss.--In Cali
aorn,a' as eisewhere along the Pacific
coast Democratic organs ana orators are
making sudden and frantic cry against
what they term a threatened food OF
Asiatic labor. Attention is called 10 the
approaching expiration OF the Cseary act.
and TO decisions by United States District
Judge Al. NJ Estee, Of Hawaii, with the
idea OF showing that a free path viii be
open TO the hordes of Asiatics In Hawaii
ana the Philippines TO enter the ports OF
the Pacific coast without hindrance of
any kind.
The story f. well calculated 10 stir un
the prejudiccs of the laboring people
against annexation and to cause the un-
thinking 10 throw their votes for Bryan
as the savior Of the labofing man. A
little study, however. shows that there Is
no more danger of an invasion OF Philip
pine and Hawaiian Chinese or Japanese
than there Is Of an invasion OF Fskimos
The Eskimos cannot enter becsuse they
are few and have no money The Chi
uese and Japanese from Hawaii and the
Philippines cannot enter because they ARE
barred out apd will stay barred out.
