Since January 1 the Oriental question" has
given the country great deal to think about.
First there was the diplomatic difficulty over
the exclusion of japanese from San Franciscos
schools. 1t was brought to the front a second
time in the course of the summer by the decision
TO send large fleet of American battleships to
the Pacific Coast Since September ] the
tent of the Oriental question" has been further
revealed by incidents of another character. On
SeDtember a mob of five hundred white men
in Bellingham, Wash. broke down the doors OF
mills and lodging houses with the intention of
driving a thousand more Hindus from the
town The Hindus. it was asserted by those
opposed to their presence, were replacing the
white men in the mills. Hundreds of terrified
Sikhs fed the town, leaving several of their
number in the hospital suffering from the In
iuries they had received and other hundreds
under the protection of the police. On Septem-
ber ten thousand laboring of Vancouver
engaged in a parade and anti-Q Oriental degnon-
stration. They concluded the exercises by drtv-
ing two thousand Chinese from their homes. de-
stroying $1,000 worth of property and burning
