ASIATlCS IN HAWAII.


DR.. Doremus Scudder, former pastor
of the Congregational Church al Wo-
burn. Mass. and now of Honolulu, was
in Washington on the opening day of
the session While his point of view
is that of the missionary and he has
been here to speak before the churches,
his account of social and racial condi-
tions at the crossroads of the Pacific
is highly interesting in its political
points of view Two-thirds of the pop
uIation of the islands is already Asia
tic The percentage of increase of
Chinese and japanese pupils in the
schools is sensatiOnally rapid while
that of the whites is small. Although
this government does not naturalize
Chinese and Japanese, by a famous
decision of the Supreme Court their
children, born on our soil, become c1tl-
zens. and they will before many years,
shape the destinies of this new terri
tory. ~
The readiness with which the ASIA
tics avail themselves of the Opportunl-
ties for economic advancement that
come their way is surprising. Dr.

Scudder has frequently questioned
public school teachers as to their
brightest pupils and the invariable an
sWer is Chinese and japanese. and IN
that order. The American captains OF
industry, in banks and counting
houses, say that the Chinese boys
taken in to learn the business. develop
a remarkable aptitude, mastering eV-
cry detail with wonderful precision
The efficiency Of the Asiatic at home,
and on our soil. it is easy to infer from
what DR.. Scudder says, will some day
become an important factor in our IN
dustrial affairs.
The struggle for religious supremacy
in Hawaii is most intense. There are
more Buddhist schools, teaching the
Buddhist religion and reverence Tor
the emperor across the seas, than
Christian schools which are inculcat-
ing American ideas. The MormOnS
maintain an exceedingly active propo-
ganda. At a recent missionary gather
ing in Salt Lake City eight hundred

were gathered. They have consider

Johnson said that on Tuesday night
he was drunk and he slept out of

shirt and white trousers dirty-'Iepo,"
as he expressed it. He returned to

She told him he had gone to Homo

he watched the children playing about
the swing, and then he went to the
warehouse at the depot to see a man.
HAD TROUSERS WASHED.
Johnson said that he first went to
the house of the Jap woman who did
his washing. He carried to her a pair
of white trousers which he said he
had got dirty the night before by
sleeping on the red earth. The Jap
woman refused to wash his clothes
as he owed her a bill. Johnson said
he had paid the money, fifty cents, to
Mrs. Wharton and she (the Jap

at the Waialua courthouse. Although
there is much feeling in and about Wa

thought that lynching would be the
better way out of the mess than a
long drawn-out and expensive trial.

stolen from him.
CRIME TO HIDE CRIME.
1t is thought by the officers that
Johnson in mutilating the body of ST
neon did so to hide evidences OF
another revolving crime against ma
ture.
1t is a curious thing that Johnson S
black trousers are not stained, while
his shirt, undershirt and drawers are
splotched with blood. He wore the
black trousers when he led Simeon off
toward the canefield. The man may
have removed his trousers before kill
ing Simeon and then drew them over
his blood-stained undergarments after
he had disposed of the body.
A PREVIOUS ATTEMPT.
A man who knows Johnson told an
Advertiser reporter last night that
about four years ago he attempted to
commit a crime similar to that with
which he is charged at Waialua.
This individual states that Johnson
was working for L. K. Kentwell at the
time and was living in the old Kent
well homestead near the corner of Fort
and School streets.
One day he is said to have been IN
the act of attacking a little son of
Harry Mossman who lived near by,
with a sickle, when seen by the mother

Mrs Mossman jumped out of the
window. rushed to the nearest tele-

UNIMPORTANT EVIDENCE.

This was thought to be additional
evidence of guilt, but when the wash
woman was questioned later on she
said Johnson had brought the trousers
TO her about o'clock. This was an
hour or more before Simeon disap-
peared. Certain stains on the trous-
ers We're there before, said the Japa-
nese woman.
