i, St Paris, O., Sept 11.-W. J. Bry- an entered the native state of his op- ponent shortly after 5 o'clock this morning. MT Bryan was well on his way to Columbus, however, before he awoke and was told that he was in the camp of the enemy. The sound ness of MT Bryan's sleep was due to the fact that after 1 o'clock this morning political developments neces- stated his getting up. dressing him self and holding long distance tele- phone conversation with Chairman Mack who was in Chicago. MT Bry- an was in the depot at Terre Haute. He was able to get back to the train only by piece of good luck as his car had been shifted while he was talking. Back on his car again, MT Bryan once more undressed and the soundness with which he slept was interpreted as indicating that the news he had received from his po- litical manager was anything but un- pleasant.

GOVERNOR FREAR'S
TRIP SUCCESSFUL
THE EXECUTIVE AFTER STAY IN WASHINGTON DURING
WORKED ON VARIOUS HAWAIIAN MEASURES -
THINKS MUCH PROGRESS FOR TERRITORY MADE
ADDRESS THIS AFTERNOON

Governor Frear, accompanied by
Mrs. Frear and Mr.. Alexander Frear
drove at once to their home on Puma
hou steet after the first greetings on
the wharf were over this morning.
The Governor stated that he was
feeling very well, Notwithstanding the
fact that he put in a very strenuous
two months in the East, and as re-
suit of overwork was not able to leave
his room in New York on Christmas
day nor for a day or so following. Re-
garding his work, he said that he was
well satisfied, and that progress had
ne had expected to look after when he
left
The Governor arranged to meet
the members of his official family at
his Office in the Capitol at / o'clock,
and at to address the Chamber OF
Commerce according to arrangements
already made.
Governor and Mrs. Frear, after
their arrival at their home shortly be-
fore 10 o'clock left shortly after, going
to a friends home near by. During
their absence Ambassador Aold, In
company with Consul General Saito,
of the Japanese Consulate, called and
left cards.
The most important matters con-
nected with the Territory on which
Governor Frear spent his time while
in Washington, were Pearl Harbor
improvements and Notifications, the
matter of intercoast shipping laws, the
matter of salaries, military reserva-
tions, photographic survey of the ISL
ands, and a number OF other matters
Of more or less moment. He did not
have time this morning to discuss
them except in a general way, but
seemed pleased with the outlook for
them all.
Congress will probably take up mat
ter of Pearl Harbor, but whether OF
not an appropriation can be secured
during this session is uncertain, but
the importance of the improvements
here are coming to be so generally
recognized that the next session is al.
most certain to make the necessary
appropriations. Governor Frear die
rood missionary work on this matter
nd his influence will doubtless have
good results.
! Better shipping service between
here and the Coast will be threshet

that if they decide to visit Japan they
will be received with every courtesy
possible. Japan is not at all anxious
TO 90 to war with America, but the
voices of the masses in Japan may be
so loud that the government will be
obliged to take some steps in the event
of any exclusion bill being passed. Re-
garding the recall of Ambassador Aon
who is a fellow passenger on the
Manchuria, | can honestly state that
he has not been recalled but is going
hrme at his own request. He asked
the Emperor to be allowed to return,
and possibly when he gets back he will
be fficially recalled | do not think
that Takahira will be appointed to re-
lieve Aoki in the event of his being
recalled. Takihara is not at all po-
pular in Japan, and doubt very much
if the Emperor will do anything to hurt
the feelings of the people. Aoki will
make a full report on his return rea-
tive to the immigration situation
throughout the United States to the
Emperor, and the future course of Jap
an VIII depend entirely on his report.
Regarding the feeling in Canada a
gainst Japanese l do not know very
much about it but from all can un-
derstand there is a feeling of resent
ment against the coming in of Japa-
nese labor. In conclusion all can
say is that | hope that the good feel
ings that have existed in the past be-

Through his conferences with the

lieves that the matter of military re.
fseryations will soon be Strengthened
out, and recommendation for the ap-
preparation of $4,000 for a hydro
graphic survey has already been In
cluded in the estimate of the bureau.
The Americanization Of the Terri
tory was a matter which the Governor
gave much attention, and the Hepburn
pill now in the House to permit the
Territory to lend aid to immigration
from European countries was not a
little the result of his efforts.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-01-14

Heretofore such appropriations have
been made only every two or three
years; long ago contracts covered long
periods, but now it is expected that at
least $5OOOOOOO a year will be spent.

The Viscount Aoki, returning Japa-
nese ambassador to the United States,
arrived here this morning on the S. S.
Manchuria, disinclined to see news
papermen and apparently seeking Sc
clusion generally. His countrymen
gave him no reception. Not a Japa-
nese flag few from a sampan and few
Japanese, most of them newspaper
men, were at the wharf to meet him.
Aoki, however, talked in San Fran
cisco, giving utterance to his views re-
garding the all-important matter of
immigration. He is probably going
home for good, to be succeeded by Ia
kahira, but does not state that any
formal recall has yet taken place.
Personally do not think that there
is any chance of Japan and America
going to war over an exclusion law, al
though | am unable to ansyer for the
minds of my cOuntrymen in Japan. The
news in Japan over the possibilities of
an exclusion law being passed in Wash
ington, may have made some of the
people in Japan a little excited, but |
am confident that everything will come
out to the complete satisfaction of both
countries"
This statement was made this morn
ing by K. Hayashi, manager of the
MitSui bank in Toxic who is on the
Manchuria on his way home after a
four months trip to London. Il went
partly on business and partly on plea
sure and am very sorry that am un-
able to state the business I transacted
while there
In answer to the question Did
you go on to London to see
about floating large loan?' he re-
piled, 81 cannot answer that. 1 left
Japan four months ago for Europe via
the Trans-Siberian Railroad, and have
been in London constantly ever since. +"
do you think that Japan would re-
sent by arms the action of the United
states in the event of an exclusion bill
being passed preventing Japanese
from coming into the country?" was
asked.
81 think that before anything like
that would happen the matter would be
settled by arbitration" replied Hayashi.
