JAPANESE MIGRATION PROBLEMS.

The Hawaii Shinpo assumes that the
plan to make access of japanese field
hands to the coast from Hawaii de-
pendant upon passports issued by the
japanese consul here, would traverse
the organic act and the American con-
stitution. As no citations are given
if is not easy to understand the pre-
else grounds upon which the Shinpos
argument is based. 1t does not occur
to US where the organic act touches
the question or where the constitution
grants any rights to foreigners which
are not subject to treaty modification.
The Advertiser knowing that the To-
kio government is eager to stop the
migration of japanese labor from here
to the consolidating already stopped
it on the direct route from home-ano
that the Washington government
would like to see it stopped-knows OF
no reason why the existing treaty be-
tween the two countries could not be
altered in line with the suggestion we
have made. There could be no affront
to Japan in the matter, as she would
ba neruitted to control here as she
does at home, the movements OF her
own. subjects-a power Japan would
like TO enjoy. With the understanding
that the Consul General at Honolulu
would issue no passports to laborers
not only would Japan's control Oh It's
subjects here be strengthened but the
danger of exclusion laws would De
avoided. the demands of the LABOR
unions would be met and the danger
of a quarrel between America and ia
pan be allayed-
Naturally the japanese laborers pre-
fer being induced to stay here by hlsh-
or wages rather than having access TO
the coast denied them; but considering
how high their wages We're during pau
times the years they have been palo
by some plantations that did not niahe
a dividend the uncertainty about sus-
ar prices in future and the fact that
they are now getting three or TOUR
times more than they could make at
honle-considering these things theli
desire for more pay is not persuasive.
No one can blame the Shinpo 1or
choosing the wage solution OF the
nroblem, but we insist that the pass
port plan is better because IL creates
no new difficulties; it is simple, to the
point and disposes of every issue that
has any elements Of danger in IT,

ually) and is solely in the interest OF
the public, the earnings of the company
being practically the same, whether
the car is on time or not. Ii a car De
delayed, by an obstruction or other
wise, it is manifestly to the advantage
of the passengers waiting on cars side
tracked ahead that a part, at least, or
the lost time be made up, if it can be
safely done.
The fact that not one of the serious
car accidents that has yet occurred has
been due to unlawful speed is proof OF
the propriety of methods of operation
adopted by the company in the interest
of the people of Honolulu
President Peck, Manager Balla2tyne
and Superintendent Pratt of the Rapid
Transit were before the Police Commit
tee of the House last night and were
questioned upon the bill to put speed
indicators and air brakes on the Rapid
Transit cars. The gentlemen explained
to the committee the excellence OF the
system of control in use on the cars,
and it is probable that the committee
men will be taken out and given an
object lesson in speed and the sys-
tenn of brakes.

The Legislature would do the Terri
tory and its business interests harm by
defeating the wireless telegraph meas
ure as the House came near doing yes
terday. This bill does not call for
renewal of the subsidy, but for the
authorization of the superintendent of
Public Works to make terms for the
use of the wireless system for Govern
ment dispatches. The wireless cannot
run without the public business and
the latter finds itself well served by the
wireless. Should the company shut
down, the official and business classes
would feel the deprivation keenly. For
the Legislature to oppose a subsidy for
the wireless could be understood but
why should it object to letting the de-
partments have the means of making
such use of that service as necessity
may call for?

SLOW TRANSIT PREDICTED.

The legal proceedings to regulate
.ba sneed of Rapid Transit cars have
already broken service at connecting
points and are likely, if they succeed
TO revive many of the incohVehieliIe0
of the tram line.
A.. rule the Rapid Transit cars run
at statutory speed; but there come
times when. to make connections tie
speed must be increased Every Jay
something happens TO detain car ana
,,,1ass tho latter succeeds in getting
back to it's place in the schedule tiie
system Is demoralized and people miss
tbair connections everywhere. This IS
true of all trolley and steam railway
zervices There is but one excuse for
tbe law interfering in such cases ana
that is when the higher speed results
in injury to person or loss OF Ire OF III
peril to the public; but so far. in cases
of injury or worse, the Rapid Transit
has. been. exonerated, by every coroner
Jury. from the charge of contributory
negligence Harm has only been don@ 10
people jumping from cars in motion or
i'm trying to cross the track in front OF
them. And as for public peril, on gen
eral principles. the making up OF time
i'm Honolulu does not take place on
narrow or crowded streets, the bell Is
freely used and the car is kept well IN
hand.
The Rapid Transit has been a great
convenience to the people of Honolulu
especially to those who take transfers
at junction points. But if the present
case is won, nobody will be able to
connect by transfer in this city except
by a happy accident. Indeed, that is
now the case. Then again the reduc-
ton of speed by an average OF ten
minutes. affecting from $1,000 to 10000
people daily, would be a serious loss
in hours. There viii then be no mark
ed advantage in the Rapid Transit
system over the mule cars of the past
Are we as a city prepared to go back
to slow transit, long waits at juno
ton points and no certainty as to the
time when the car a man takes Will
arrive at the point he wants to reacn

1T is barking back to old times TO
hear a grave discussion in the Y. M.
C. A. directorate as to whether it would
be good moral policy to have billiard

things what harm exists in a BILLIARD
table which is not inherent in a GRO
quet set Y. W. c. A. minstrel show
or an sthletic track meet? The pref
udice against billiard tables is remote
ly associated with the Puritan dislike
of idle pleasures" and more nearly
with the fact that such tables are Of

matter so are mirrors and goblets, easy
chairs, pianos and pictures. A bill
lard table may aid the business of
saloons but it is so impartial that it is
