company could furnish employment to
1000 miners The victor Fuel COM
pany, the second of Importance in the
State, is in need of 500 miners, and the
smaller operators could employ an ad

only be secured. There is employment
Tor over 1000 coal miners in Colorad o,
and they are badly needed More
mines could be onened If additional
employees were to be had. and this
would aid the fnel situation CON
siderably. The output of the mines
has been largely increased this year;
each man has produced on an average
of ton more per day. But the only
great difficulty which confronts the
operators is the scarcity Of labor, and
there. is no Immediate prospect of its
relief

Wednesday night, and il was found nee
essary TO send for the police TO restore

prisoners with being drunk and disturbing
the peace.
Nobody seems to know how the trouble
started but before II had reached its
climax both Denhalter and Peterson had
been preclpitated through a plate-glass
window OF the Ware saloon. Just how
the precipitation took place Is. and Will
probably always remain, a mystery, for
Peterson. who weighs a ton, swears that
he didn't throw himself through the win

Both men-Peterson, the giant, and

time to take up the resolution, and on
that motion the votes Of the Senators
will be recorded said Senator Bur
rows.
'fI believe there will be vote, but
there will be no default. Senators will
have an opportunity to vote for the
resolution or to vote TO postpone it. -
An interesting story has been going
the rounds TO the erect that a majority
of the Senators were disposed to per
nit Smoot TO retain his seat, but were
afraid of the women. and would,
therefore. avoid going on record by
postponing the case Indefinitely, but it
was evident from Senator Burrows S

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-A report on
Japanese conditions In the Hawaiian ISL
ands Will be made to President Roosevelt
immigration and Naturalization, as a re-
suit OF his recent visit to the islands.
Commissioner Sargent today expressed
the opinion that there are fewer Japanese
in the Hawaiian islands now than there
were two years ago, n greater number
having come to America in that period
than arrived In Hawaii. Mkt Saito. the
Japanese Consul-General Mt Honolulu. in
timated to Mr. Sargent that the Japan
csc Government discouraged its people
from coming 70 the United States because
OF its knowledge OF the conditions exist
ing In this country, especially on the Pa
clhc coast, and II was apprehended that
the coming here OF great numbers of
Japanese might induce prejudice
against them that would be embarrassing,
The Commissioner OF immigration
found that the owners OF sugar, pineapple
and other plantations In the Islands are in
serious need OF labor. and many Japan
ese are coming 10 the islands to work
Hawaiian planters to diversity their la
bor. 30 far as possible, not combining II
to any ono race. but getting people from
all quarters OF the world. second ship

In a short time. and II is probable that
these immigrants will make the islands
their permanent home. Many more plan

If IL were possible TO obtain the neces-
labor has been scarce. II is expected
that the arrival In the islands of Euro
pean aborers will be a solution of the
Hawaiian labor problem.
