HAwAIrs DEMANDS.

One az the most serious problems pre-
san.ea by gae annexation o: the
hawaiian Islands by the United states
was the question % Chinese imn'lsT'-
,s,p to those possessions, It was
recognized that the question u cheap (
labor was Of vital importance 10 the /
snrsr and other industries ot the
Islands. ami a strict Application Of our .
laws regarding importation OF cheap 1
,,s,r would result in serious l'ss 10
,,osa enterprises. The industries OF
Hawaii aad been built upon the foun-
saticn Of cheaa labor, and a sudden
change TO a more skilled and higher
pr,ced labor would mean incaleulaele
LIS. 10 the commerce Of the Islands
II was believed that congress would
and A solution for tie problem AMI at
the same time guard agalns; the evil
Of opening up our own country to the
danger Of an .nAux Of this cheap and
in this country. undesirable class OF
labor.
As yet this has not been done. Our
laws have been applied u Hawaii. and
the result Is already noticeable in the
dspreciat,on in the value OF the stocks
o. the great enterprises OF the ISLANDS
In his annual report, which has Just
baan raeaivsi at Washington, H. E
Cooper. acting governor Of Hawaii
draws attention 10 this condition and
suggests that a limited number Of
Chinese Iabore-s be permitted To i'm
migrate % the Islands conditioned upon
their engaging in agricultural pursuits
and their return to their own country
upon ceasing to be farmzrs. He says;
The prosperity Of the Islands de-
deuends upon the successful and eco
nomleal production OF sugar. The
employment Of Chinese and Japa-
nese BY the planters never has
lntzrtered and never win interfere
either with American skilled oil

Of desirable labor can be obtained ii

make Since the annexation the immi
grafton Of unskilled laUorers hai
practically ceased. while many Chimes
and japanese have returned 20 thet
native countries. All sugar plantation
stocks have fallen far below tha
former value. ana this has had tn
effect Of producing a stringency in to
money market from which many nav
suffered loss. II NJ relief is form

surely will follow. It is physica

It Is to be presumed that this is
fair ami impartial statement Of n
facts, and it Is quite sure congress wi
dispose Of this question in such a man
ner as will be to the best inter7s;
the Inhabitants Of the Islands an

THAT the present indebtedness of the Dis

fort is being made to foist an additional
debt of So per capita. exclusive of interest,
on the people of this District under the
