THEY BLAME AMERICA.
Japanese Say z. S. Citizens Caused
the Vancouver Trouble.

Toxic, Sept. 1.-THE Jill in a lead
ing editorial, to be published tomor-
row greatly deplores the fact that an
incident similar to that at San Fran
cisco has occurred at Vancouver
which is part of the territory of an al
ly of Japan. The Jill believes that the
trouble at Vancouver was occasioned
by the increased arrival of japanese
laborerS from Hawaii after the en-
forcement of the exclusion measure
by the government at Washington,
coupled with the cOntagton of anti
Japanism rampant on the Pacific
coast of the United States. This had
famed the anti-oriental sentiment
which had existed for several years in
British Columbia and had only been
prevented from assuming legal form
by the attitude of the Dominion gov
eminent The paper, however, en-
phas1ZeS the fact that the outbreak at
Vancouver like the trouble at San
Francisco. is only local. 1t says:
The regret already expressed by
the Canadian government coupled
with assurances of the prevention of
the reoccurrence of a similar incident
even royal message having been sent
TO the dominion authorities in refer
ence thereto furnishes the cIearest
evidence that the japanese have Off
cal sympathy on their side. More
over, the power of the Dominion gov
eminent over individual states is
greater than that of the government
al Washington and the Canadian po-
lice are more efficient than those of
San Francisco, and there is every
reason to believe that the fullest pro-
lection will be given to our comma
triots at Vancouver
w nile the present incident is limited
locally and is against the general senti-
ment of the British public. and. as
such, is possible of speedy solution vet
1t must be remembered that it is preg-
nant with the most difficult compIica-
lions now facing the authorities and
statesmen of the nations concerned The
time will soon come when a fundament-
al solution, completely removing orr
entail and occidental friction will be on
the tapis as a practical question:
The Hochi publishes the experience of
a high japanese official when he visit
ed a place near Vancouver where jap
anese are engaged in salmon fishing
He went in company with the Japanese
consul and men who had interests there
and states that the Japanese laborers
fairly fnsulted the party, saying: You
have no business here Run away. or
receive our fists"
The paper quotes this Japanese Off
cial as saying that the japanese there
were the toughest and rudest he had
ever seem They were totally ignorant
OF common politeness and he did not
wonder they had become objects Of
hatred They are ready to insult their
consul, when in good health, but when
taken sick they appear at the consulate
for assistance as if claiming ii by right
The presence of such characters only
arouses the enmity of their neighbors
The name of the official making these
statements is not given, but there is
reason to believe he is a member of the
present Japanese cabinet
