SHOULD GRANT REQUEST.

Senator N. B. Scott OF West Virgil
mia: Many interesting things have come
to my attention since | left home.
From personal investigation am sat-
isfied that California needs more labor
ers. Farmers in that state say that
over million dollars worth OF fruit
was lost last year by lack Of labor
to care for 1t. In the grape districts
where the temperature in grape har-
vest times reaches 10 in the shade
they claim nobody but Chinaman will
sit squatted all day long between rows
and clip grapes. no difference what
they might offer in the way of wages.
In Honolulu ! think the people have
cause Of complaint. Those islands pay
a million dollars profit into the national
government and get nothing in return.
They want the privilege of importing
twenty-five or thirty thousand Chinese
into the islands for labor for term
of five years, and are willing to give
bond to return every one of them back
to China. They have shown conclu-
sively that they need this labor and |
think we should grant their request.

JAP A SERIOUS PROBLEM.

Thirteenth Illinois District: AS resi-

Oriental people. Being now brought
In close touch with them of courss
makes them the object of our attention.
The chief thought in that connection
is their relation to the United States.
The Chinese are quiet, industrious and
with no ambition except to get their
bones back to China. If the present
restriction clauses are tactfu,ly admin
istered our relations with China should
proceed with little friction. The jap
anese are ambitious, Industrious, forcc-
ful and inclined to be scrappy. 1t IL
my feeling that II they are put into
equal competition with the white mar

Representative Curtis of Kansas:

enough time on the islands to thor.
oughly study the various questions In
which the government of the United

questions which Congress will be coll.

within the next few years.
The question of the admission OF
Cinnamon to work on the sugar planta
lions seems to be the most urgent. The
planters say they have tried all other
kinds of labor without success; that
the Chinaman Is the only one he can
get who can do a certain kind of labor
In the cultivation of sugar cane. This
question should be looked into.

be realized in the coming year. Here

for the United States are imposed on
detached territory belonging to the
United States. Our tariff. immigration
and exclusion laws are enforced in

the first Importance that the United

both the politics and the business. The
mastery Of the Pacific is the great
prize which awaits the bold in diplo-

win 1t. The very first step in the di.
rection of winning II is comprehen.
sive knowledge upon the part Of those
who direct the policy of our country of
the political, economic, industrial and
commercial situation in the Orient.
Such information in greater or less
degree the members of Secretary Taft's
party cannot fail to acquire during the
two weeks they shall spend in Japan
and China and the month they shall
spend in the Philippines, and 1t is this
information, not less than that specii.
