This certif- icate must hen be placed in an envel- ope provided and addressed to the secretary of said subcommittee, and must be mailed at once ill the most convenient postoffice On the day of the election.
 10-Each envelope, as aforesaid, must bear the postmark of the same date as the election, and if there be such failure, then the burden is upon the judges, and before said vote is finally declared in said ward or town ship, they must prove conclusively that they have honestly failed to mail said certificate on said day.
 If any voter be present and for any cause be unable to prepare his ballot, he shall publicly announce for whom he wishes to vote and the judges of said election, shall, in the presence of all other judges prepare his ballot for him.

INDIANA JAPS
AROUSE LABOR
Canadian Organizations Appeal
to Ottawa to Check
immigration.

The labor organizations of British Co,
lumbia, affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor. showed them
selves bitterly opposed to the admis-
sion of the three hundred Japanese who
went to Vancouver in the S. S. Indiana
which yesterday morning returned here
for more. Such is the report brought
back by the Indiana, and, while there
are no unemployed in British Column
bia and wages are good and labor is
in demand, organized labor is urgently
protesting to the Federal authorities
at Ottawa to prohibit the further i'm
migration of Japanese direct or by way
of Hawaii.
A protest went up when the Ku-
meric took a thousand or more from
here. and when the Indiana arrived
representations were at once forward
ed to Ottawa, protesting against any
further admissions.
Owing to the treaty rights, how
ever, the move TO get the Dominion
to check immigration is
full of difficulties.

Fcxl4EY AT THE WHARF.

The British S. S. Foxley. Captain
Milman. was this morning put along
side the Bishop wharf by Pilot Ma
caulay, coming in from her anchorage
off port where she spent a week. She
was to have taken coal and water
aboard. outside but IT has been decided
that she take these necessities from
the wharf. the latter process being
decidedly less expensive. She is a big
vessel and shows her size in the
Bishopp slip to good advantage. Tt
will probably be Thursday before she
sails for Moji, Japan. She arrived or
port on August "A from San Jose de
Guatemala in distress. being short of
coal and provisions and what coal she
had left was heated. Most of her crew
are Chinese and the immigration au-
thorfties have officers on the wharf
to prevent their coming ashore.

QUARANTINE NOW
ON HERE AGAINST
SAN FRANCISCO
Orders From Washington to Protect Honolulu
From Bubonic Plague Infection by
Ships From Coast.

The Asia will suffer little or no in
convenience through this order, for she
is q foreign bottom, although operated
by the Pacific Mail, anu brings no pas
sengers for Honolulu except perhaps
two or three stop-overs and she has no
freight for this port. She will want
coal and water and ordinarily puts dir
ty linen ashore for washing. She can
take her coal and water in quarantine
without much trouble. She may have
to wash her soiled linen aboard. With
against San Francisco will be another
matter for she brings numerous pas
sengers and considerable freight from
San Francisco for Honolulu. Not hav-
ing been fumigated ON the Coast she
will have to be fumigated here and
her freight, too, may undergo fumiga-
tion, her steerage passengers, if any,
taking the seven-day quarantine on the
island, her cabin passengers being al
lowed to land after careful examina-
tion, as was the case with the Sierra
when she arrived with case of plague
aboard last Friday.
The orders from Washington, sent to
San Francisco and to this port, order
ing boats leaving the Golden Gate to
leave clean for Hawai- and ordering
Honolulu to see that they get here
clean, in order to protect Honolulu
from the San Francisco plague, double
the burden on all vessels plying be-
tween the two ports, unless Sa1 Fran
cisco's quarantine against Honolulu
should be raised, which should be the
case about the end OF this month if
are.
1t has frequently been the remark
Of officers of vessels coming here from
San Francisco, who were strenuously
objecting to what they emphatically
termed an unnecessary lot of quaran-
tine red-tape because one or two cases
of long ago sickness here, that rightly
Honolulu should quarantine against San
Francisco where there were frequently
cases of plague. Now it has come about,
San Francisco being no longer allowed
to claim that plague there is merely
sporadic, and Honolulu is guarding
against plague from San Francisco, per
orders from Washington. |
In the case of San Francisco it may
mean that intending passengers for Ho- |
noluiu may have to go into quarantine
before embarkation. Next it may be
that Oriental ports, whence plague
originated, will be quarantining against
San Francisco.

THIEF ENTERS
PACIFIC CLUB
Thirty-0ne Dollars We're Stolen
From the Buffet Last
Night.

The University Club is no longer
alone in the distinction of having been
robbed by the petty thieves who have
been doing more or less work of this
kind around the city recently. Satur-
day night, between the hour of mid
night and o'clock Sunday morning,
the Pacific Club was burglarized and
the sum of $31 stolen from the tin
cash box in which the money collected
during the day is kept.
1t was an easy matter for the robber
to make an entrance, as there are ex-
tensive repairs and alterations being
made to the building and the windows
were unlocked. The thief showed that
he had an intimate knowledge of the
club, as he went directly to small
locker in the buffet, where twenty dol
lars in change and the money taken
in during the day is usually kept. He
pried the box open with steel in
strument used to open cigar boxes,
which was at hand, and eloped with
the contents.
As rule there is not more than four
or five dollars in this box at night, in
addition to the $50 in change which
has been mentioned but last night more
cash was paid in than usual and there
was $31 all told for the thief. With
the exception of couple of cigars no
other loss has been discovered.
The matter was at once reported to
the police and Chief Of Detectives
Taylor took personal charge of the
matter. With the exception OF the
fact that it seems evident that the
robber must have been employed in
the club at some time, on account of
the way in which he went directly to
the cash box, which is not located
where a stranger would find it, or
dinarily, there seems to be no clue
on which to work. The matter viii |
De thoroughly investigated and Taylor
hopes that some other clue will come |
up which will lead to his discovering
he identity of the thief.

HOW SINCLAIR
FATHER LANDED
Federal Quarantine Chief Ramus
Permits Doctor to Guard
Parent Ashore.

Archibald Sinelair's coming ashore
/ from the steerage of the o. s. S. Sierra
on Friday night, when the quarantine
regulations called for all the steerage
passengers to be kept on Quarantine
Island for seven days. has excited
great deal of talk and, as reported in
yesterdays Advertiser the rest of the
steerage passengers threaten to me-
morialize Washington when their quar-
antine on the island is at an end.
1t develops that DR.. Ramus, chief
of the United States Marine Hospital
Service here, in the absence OF DR..
Cofer. allowed DR.. Sinclair, whose IA
ther is the steerage passenger concern
ed, to hiring his father ashore on the
understanding that DR.. Sinclair, being
a quarantine officer could and should
submit his father to an individual
quarantine and subject him to the
daily examination and also the isola-
ton required in the case of the steer
age passengers on Quarantine Island,
the only difference being that while
the rest of the Sierra's steerage pas
sengers are kept on the island for
the seven-day period, the father OF
DR.. Sinclair is kept elsewhere under
the eve of DIR. Sinclair, himself quar-
antine officer.
DR. Sinclair, it is said, was prepared
to leave his father on Quarantine Is
land with the others who had come
from the Coast in the steerage, but
his chief believed that there was
perfectly legitimate way out Of so CO.
ing. inasmuch as DR.. Sinclair was an
officer Of the Marine Hospital Service
and as such, capable Of being intrust-
ed with the charge Of an individual
quarantine. Upon this understanding.
then. DR.. Sinclair was permitted 10
bring his father ashore, and he Is each
dav taking his temperature and other
wise examining him, it, of course, be"
ing understood that at the first sign
of suspicious sickness he would imme-
diately be sent to the island.
Probably If each OF the Sierra's
steerage passengers had relative in
the Marine Hospital Service here, he
would have been allowed to come
ashore and undergo individual quar-
antine with his relative as his GUS
todian. .i..a. -. 4e.-r

WANT LABORERS
IN NORTHWEST
Gear Tells of the Labor COndi-
lions Up in British
Columbia.

| A. v. Gear returned yesterday from
his trip to Vancouver and surprised
| his family. They had, not heard that
| the vessel was sighted when he drove
up to his home and 1t pleased him
greatly to be able to give them SO
pleasant a surprise. When asked for
| Information in regard to his trip Mr..
Gear was rather retscent but finally
made the following statement:
I'VE had no trouble whatever in
Vancouver. We arrived early on a
Sunday morning, when an English
town is generally as dead as can be,
bat the doctor and the immigration
officers came out to meet us, and be-
fore o'clock in the afternoon every
man had been landed without the
least trouble. I never saw the Japa-
nese consul. He took no part in the
matter. and everything went along
very smoothly.
There was big delegation Of labor
men, headed by a couple OF candidates
for Parliament, waiting for US at Vic
toria, where it was understood by
them that we would land. They wait
ed in vain, however, as we did not go
near Victoria. 1t is nearly time for
an election in British Columbia and
the labor leaders have taken the Jap
anese proposition up as a matter Of
politics. It is nothing more.
The capitalists there want la'borers.
They have advertised again and again
for men but cannot get whites and
have been forced to call on Asiatics.
There is work in that section for $780,
600 laborers. 1t is the finest country
extremely high. Why, a laborer on
the road there gets s2.25 day. The
miners there are getting more money
than you and are. They get S. and
Sc per day. I would take a chance
at this work myself but my doctor
tells me that I am constitutionally un-
fitted for 1t.
The capitalists in British Columbia,
in fact all the men who amount to
are glad to see the Japanese
come in as they are needed for the |
development OF the country. They |
must have laborers ana when they |
cannot get whites are only too glad |
of the chance to get Japanese. You |
can have some idea of the labor mar |
ket when I tell you that every man /
whom. we took UP was at work before /
the ship left Vancouver.
There certainly is combination |
among the Japanese hotelkeepers in |
Vancouver. The matter is only a nat
ural one, I suppose, though. They
wish to hold the men in the city as
long as they can and on that account
have caused more or less trouble.
Il understand that the Kun1eric had
L great deal of trouble but cannot give
you any details about it. I was not
and have nothing to say in

Honolulu is quarantining against San
Francisco on account of the epidemic
of bubonic plague now in the Coast
city and hereafter every vessel leaving
San Francisco for Hawaii ports will
be required to be fumigated before de-
parture and receive the certificate OF
the health authorities at San Francisco
that the ship and crew have undergone
quarantine.
Though Honolulu has been a clean
port for months the California health
authorities have required that vessels
1eaving here for San Francisco be
fumigated and otherwise handled here
prior to departure, the Honolulu quar-
antine service certifying to such hand
ling. Now Honolulu quarantines against
San Francisco and the ports are quar-
antined against each other.
DIR. Carl Ramus, assistant surgeon,
United States Marine Hospital service,
for this port, in charge in the absence
of DIR. Cofer, yesterday received from
Washington cabled instructions to at
once apply the quarantine to all YES
:sels from San Francisco on account of
! an epidemic of bubonie plague there.
! San Francisco has been doing every
thing possible to keep quiet the fact
of plague existing there and has been
most demanding in requiring that YES
sells undergo quarantine and be fumi-
gated here before leaving for that city
or be held up there for several days
under the yellow flag, San Francisco
seeming to fear that plague might be
introduced there from this port, whereas
there are good reasons to believe, now,
that the few cases of plague which
have occurred on this island in past
months may have been brought here
from San Francisco.
DIR. Ramus stated yesterday evening
that the cabled instructions from
Washington were to be put into force
Immediately and upon the arrival of a
vessel from San Francisco she will be
treated Just as are treated vessels ar
irving here from the Orient, being sub
iected to a rigid examination of pas
sengers and crew outside the harbor
and, unless she brings the certificate
of the San Francisco marine hospital
service to the effect that she has un-
dergone precautionary treatment before
leaving that port, she will be put into
quarantine here and not allowed to
come to her wharf.
Plague conditions are serious in San
Francisco. John Kelly, the Sierra s
.coaIpasser who has the disease, came
fsrom E street, near the Ferry building,
ESan Francisco, in the district from
which were taken numerous eases of
plague.
The Pacific Mail S. >. Asia, due here
this afternoon from San Francisco, and |
the Matson Navigation S. S. Hilonian,
due here Thursday from San Francisco,
having left San Francisco before the
new orders from Washington could go
into effect and therefore not having
undergone quarantine and fumigation
at San Francisco for clean bill of
health to enter here, will be ordered
into quarantine Immediately upon ar
rival at this port.
