A Very Old Tune.

An interesting anecdote is told Of the
old tune to which well known song
is now sung. The story runs that when
the army of the first Napoleon was In
Egypt in 1799 the camp for awhile was
near the pyramids. One afternoon
about sunset the band was playing,
and the natives of the desert had col
lected and were listening to the music.
Nothing unusual happened until the
band struck up tune which we now
hear under the name of 1--WE Won't
Go Home Till Morning." Instantly
there were the widest demonstrations
Of joy among the Bedouins. They EN-
braced each other and shouted and
danced in the delirium of their pleas
ure The reason was that they were
listening to the favorite and Oldest
tune of their people. The tune had
been taken to Europe from Africa In
the eleventh century and had lived sep
arately in both countries for over zoo
years,

ana aIter reclClng JAar various puDt1c
bodies have beeen asked to submit
their recommendations for amend
ments to that act, states his own ideas
of legislation needed for the islands
as follows:
IMMIGRATION LAWS.
Firstly far the most important
question which concerns the future of
these islands is the need of some
modification of the. Immigration laws
| IN order to provide labor to develop
the resources of this Territory to the
fullest extent. By reference, the arti-
Gle on sugar. with the remarks on la
Dor conditions which precede, make it
evident that unless some modification
can be obtained, the progress of these
islands Will be checked. NotwithStand-
ing the large number of Orientals that
compose our population, it is evident
from the school statistics that We are
not being Asiaticized. The conditions
here differ entirely from those which
affect the Atlantic seaboard, and pro-
vision for a limited number of Orien-
tails to work in the cane and rice fields
of these islands need not necessarily
antagoniZe those who believe in re-
stricted immigration. The immigra-
ton laws in reference to the entrance
of Chinese are already in force in
these islands, and those here are not
allowed to enter the ports of the Pa
cif1c coast. Thus provision could easily
be made for limited number under
restrictions requiring their return at
!, the end OF a given number of years
! and combining them entirely to these
| islands
.Second-Next in point OF Importance
| is the removal of the restriction in the
leasing of agricultural lands. At pres
/ ent the Territory can lease no agri-
cultural lands for more than five years.
while certain crops. such as sisaI Ga

mature its first crop. and it is impossi-
| bic to expect any one to undertake such
a venture on leased lands with the
| prospect of, having the result of four
years out CT five of his abor sold at
public auction.
| If Congress is unwilling to modify
| this the only other course to pursue to
increase the wealth of these islands is

to Europe geographically as does Ha-
wall in relation to Asia. Furthermore.
while there is a stream of italian and
European immigration from which the
Southern states can supply their needs,
the great distance to Hawaii, coupled
with the rigorous laws against assist
ed immigration, makes it impossible for
Hawaii to hope for relief from that
source, even if such immigrants could
stand the climate, which is far more
trying than is that of the South
FINANCES.
The Governor relates that Territorial
finances are in better shape today than
they have been since the Territory was
annexed to the United States. It is
estimated in the report that the APP
propriations for the year ending June
80, 1905, will be slightly under $1,000
600, while a conservative estimate of
the revenue for the same period places
if about 100000 in excess of that a
mount. In another year therefore, it
is figured that the Territory will be
doing business on a cash basis-and
that Notwithstanding the fact of the
diversion of the customs and internal
revenue receipts to the national gov
eminent.
There is considerable financial detail
in the report. and then the needs of
navigation in the matter of lighthouses
and buoys is dwelt upon. There are
| strong chapters, too. upon the need for
Federal building, and army and navy
buildings, and attention is called to
the fact that the Territorial buildings
| are crowded and the judiciary build
ing. especially, in need of thorough re-
pair. There is an interesting chapter
upon the fisheries of the islands, and
/ the suggestion is made that Congress
viii perhaps have to make an appro
priation to reimburse the owners of
| fishing rights if the fisheries are final
| ly &c be reclaimed for the benefit OF
the public.
NEEDED LEGISLATION.
Following the chaper on fisheries
| come the Governors recommendations
for legislation by Congress, matters of
| rhe last Importance to the people OF
the Territory. The Governor opens
| this chapter with the statement thar
| there has been no amendment of the
Organic Act since its passage in 1900.
