1 could give a dozen or more reasons
why every individual seeking life in
surance should at least consider what
the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance
Company Of Newark, N. j., has to Of
fer, but the statement would necessa-
rily occupy considerable space and be-
sides many Of the reasons, while val
i'd, would be technical and not Of in
terest to the layman, and all Of them
combined would only emphasize the
one point in which every man who
buys life insurance should be interest
ed, and that Is that the company Is In
a class all by itself when its record OF
fair and honorable dealing with every
policy holder who has been insured ir
1t from the day 1t commenced business
in 1S45 up to date Is considered, OF
where its policy contracts are COM
pared with those Of any particular ol
all other companies. In nutshell the
man who makes the investigation will
find that 1T Is the Best Company

down, dying in less than a minute af-
terwards. Mr.. Brown was from Green

was apparently about forty-five years
Of age, and had been q conductor on

These prices are based upon cash,
and ten per cent advance on these
where the same Is to be charged for

With the condition Of the market,
the scarcity Of this material, and the

Hawaiian japanese Are
Not Wanted in
Canada.

According to the information brought
to Honolulu yesterday by Mr.. Yoshiye,
formerly an attache at the japanese
Consulate in Honolulu, who is a pas
rea, great disappointment awaits the
Japanese who will sail in a few days
on the S. S. Kumeric for Canada. Mr..
Yoshiye is well acquainted with the
labor situation in the Canadian West.
after having left here having served as
secretary of the japanese Consulate at
Vancouver. He has now severed his
connection with the diplomatic service
and is returning to Canada from Japan
to engage in the numbering business.
He states that any Japanese who go
to that country by way of the Hawai-
ian Islands are going to find it most
difficult to secure work. There is plenty
of work to be had, but the largest Ca
madam employers of labor have agreed
not to employ any japanese from here.
The reason for this is at bottom the
same reason which has induced the
American government to forbid the i'm
migration of Japanese, the antagonisn
of union labor to cheap labor and the
fear that the presence of too great a
number of Japanese would result in
trouble. For years the Canadian
unions have objected to Oriental i'm
migration, particularly the unions
throughout British Columbia. For
years the Legislature of British Co
lumbia has passed at practically every
session some antf-Japanese legislation,
only to have the same promptly vetoed
by the Dominion government which has
much more to say respecting provincial
legislation than the Federal govern
ment has respecting the various acts
passed by the Individual States. The
reason given in each instance for the
veto is that Imperial reasons demand
that there be no cause for friction be-
tween Great Britain and her ally Ja-
pan, especially through legislation
passed by an irresponsible minor
province.
These anti-Japanese laws as passed
have had one effect, however, and that
is to induce Japan on her part to seek
to avoid cause of friction by strictly
limiting the number of passports is
sued to intending Canadian emigrants.
These are limited to $50 a month.
The Japanese leaving Hawaii are do
ing so without regard to their pass
ports which were issued to them to
go to Hawaii only. Thus they are dis
arranging the plans of the Canadian
government and of their own govern
ment to avoid the very appearance Of
giving offense to the Canadian union
lists and forcing the British Columbian
government into urging on the Do
minion the necessity for any Japanese
exclusion laws. By agreement between

Mail Special to the Advertiser }

(Mail Special to the Advertiser.)
WASHINGTON, D. c., June TO-
Governor Carter of Hawaii has been
here for three days, which he has filed
with business pertaining to the Ter
ritory. He has been to the White
House Offices to see President Roose-
velt, whom he assured that under no
conditions would he accept another
term, as has been understood in Ha-
waii he would do. He has also trans
acted considerable important business
with Secretary of the Interior Garfield
and Secretary of the Department of
Commerce and Labor Straus.
Sunday the Governor was called to
New York, whittier he went on the
night train, but is expected back here
this evening by the Congressional
limited and tomorrow will renew his
work around the departments. He plans
to leave Washington finally Thursday
evening next for Rochester where he
will attend social function at the resi-
dence of Mrs. Carriers father. He ex-
poets to be back in San Francisco late
in the month and June %, according
to his present arrangements, will sail
for Honolulu. Secretary Straus, with
whom the Governor took luncheon to-
day, will accompany him back to Ho-
nolulu. With Secretary Straus will be
members of his family and private Sec
retary. They win leave Washington in
a few days and go across the continent
by the Canadian Pacific, so that the
secretary can see something of the i'm
migration inspection service along the
border. From Canada they will jour
ney down to San Francisco and join the
Governor there.
THE SECRETARY IS PLANS.
In Hawaii Secretary Straus plans
to give his attention chiefly to the
coastwise shipping service and to the
Japanese and immigration questions.
Governor Carter has brought to his at
tention and to the attention of Secre-
tary Garfield the difficulties which the
provision against passengers travelling
between Honolulu and San Francisco
in foreign ships, impose. The Governor
has urged that this restriction be re-
moved, but Secretary Straus wants to
see for himself before any steps are
taken. If legislation is required, the
secretary must be able to present the
matter intelligently TO Congress. If 1t |
is shown that the restriction is only a
construction of existing law, it is also
necessary for the Secretary to under
stand the situation thoroughly.
The, secretary is convinced of the inn
portance of the japanese problem and
wants to see something of conditions
in Hawaii. He will naturally give

Herewith is printed the verdict of
the fire inquest on the burning of the
