JAPANESE IMMIGRATION.
Serious Problem Involving Both
Canada and the United States.


Canada and the United states.
Prot GoIdwin smith in the Toronto Sun.
A very serious question and one which
threatens 10 involve Canada and the
United States in comomn dihculty-if not
danger--is beginning to loom. II is that
of the settlement OF Chinese and japanese
on the Pacific Coast OF this continent.
Both races are in somewhat different
ways unassimilable by US. The gulf
which divides them from us. morally,
mentally, and in the case of the Chinese
politically. appears almost impossible; at
least 20 bridge it would be the work Of
generations. Yet come apparently they
viii. England has. in fact, bound us TO
admit the japanese by her alliance with
them. the fruit OF a prejudice against
Russia and fear of her designs which
might almost be called hallucinat!on. We
see in this that the foreign policy Of
Great Britain is not always identical with
ours. Admitting the japanese. We could
hardly exclude the Chinese. especially If,
as seems highly probable. q close relation
should be formed between China and
japan. Already they are settling here in
considerable numbers, way being made
for the introduction OF their labor by the
strikes The Influx of japanese coming
here under the shield Of the Anglo-Japa-
nese alliance into the United States can
hardly be prevented, and may cause
trouble with the American government.
The influx Of japanese into Canada is
now stated 10 be at the rate OF 500 a
month. Since January last over 4,000 had
arrived in British Columbia, 233 OF them in
one week, while 200 more were en- route.
During July lS3 Chinese paid the poll tax
Of 500 on entering. OF SIS japanese ar
riving at Victoria, 81 were males and
only u were females. Ii is needless 10
say what moral dangers such a disparity
Of sexes, which is still greater in the case
Of she Chinese. involves. VIII the gov

FRIDAY, AUGUST 80, 1907.
More Rooseveltian poctrine.

They are not backward in saying OF
Mr. Taft that the doctrine he enunciates
in his speeches is the doctrine OF TheO-
dore Roosevelt. But it is pretty hard for
a public man 70 make a speech on any
question of government without finding
that the many-sided President has been
there before him.
The latest instance is Gov. Hughes, Of
New York, who in a speech to his old
ueighbors at Sandy Hill dwelt on good
government and urged that il should be-
gin at the bottom. rather than at the
top. He does not believe that the local
units of government can calmly let things
shift for themselves until things get into
a bad way, aud then rush 10 the State
legislature for special laws with which
to right the wrong. His idea is that each
community should take care OF itself, and
that the sum Of such well-g and
orderly communities would fs
ideal State. He said:
Fundamentally the great thing
ment- The place 10 look primarily
curs good government and good adm
your own home. 1t is a principle
that you want to have dsne local
can gat done locally. and as little
horhe as is necessary TO the mainte
stitutions. That is the way 10 h
ment. and, therefore, to the exteI
during the legislative session. I a
local communities the matters
within their exclusive control
Undoubtedly in this Gov.
the right; and while there is ever,
TO believe that his Utterance is a grow 4.
Of his practical experience in political
life, it is undeniable that President Roose-
yelt has often declared the same thing.
II was this that was the prime subject
of his speech at the dedication Of the
monument in Arlington Cemetery 70 the
Rough Riders, Il was this doctrine he
reiterated at the laying of the corner
stone Of the Masonic Temple in Washing
ton Only the President goes even a
little further than Gov. Hughes. He be-
ieyes that the citizens first duty TO-
ward his government is to make himself
as perfect as possible. He said, in the
Masonic Temple speech:
The way TO be a good citizen is to be a good
neghbor, and, first Of all. a good neighbor to the
people in your own household, a coed neighbor 10
your vie and children; then act toward yor fel-
lows 50 that you become the kind Of a man whom
they are glad to have work for them or for whom
they are glad TO work. OF whom they are glad 10
have i've next 10 them or do business with. and
then to do each his duty faithfully and deceutly to
the State and 10 the nation"
That Is Rooseveltian doctrine which
cannot be too often enunciated in public
speeches. First the citizen; then the
citizen in his household: then the citizen
IN his village or town duties, and finally
the citizen in his duties toward the State
ana the nation. Good government begins
IN the home, and the way to better local
conditions is to set about the task our
selves. not to rush TO the legislative halls.
