Government at Tokyo Will Prevent
Labor Emigration TO America.

Government at Tokyo Will Prevent
Labor Emigration TO America.
TOKYO, Jan. 22-viscount Hayashi,
japanese minister of foreign affairs, In
an interview made statement con-
corning the emigration question which
may be considered as an official decla
ration Of the attitude of the govern
ment, 1t having been prepared for pub
licatiOn in Japan, anticipating similar
statement in the diet. Minister Haya-
shi said:
"The government Of Japan is deter
mined to investigate the personal
standing Of those that go to America
as students. requiring two sureties be-
fore they leave. The government real.
ICES that the emigration of laborera
pretending to be students is liable to
be embarrassing to America, and there
fore we are determined to prevent the
emigration of laborers.
while the proposed restrictions may
be embarrassing to real students, all
legal restrictions will be made alike,
because one dishonest person may en-
barrass many who are honest.
Although the negotiations \ with
America have not yet been concluded,
may make the definite statement as
minister Of foreign affairs that the ru-
mors which have been circulated to the
effect that any important question is
pending between America and Japan Is
a fabrication originating in a certain
section of the United States.
"Should emigration to Hawaii not be
prevented entirely the minister of for
eign affairs will not hesitate to entirely
prohibit Japanese emigration to those
sections. The foreign office intends to
prohibit emigration to Mexico. Those
who desire to send emigrants, to Mexi-
co will be regarded as assisting emil
grants to enter the United States
through the frontier, and therefore
they will he treated as lawbreakers"

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Jan. d.
Perhaps the most eloquent speech Pres
ident John Mitchell of the United Mine
Workers of America ever made was de-
livered before the national convention.
when he declined to accept personal
gift of S2,700 rendered him by the
miners of Montana and Wyoming as
token of their appreciation OF his eff
forts to make their condition better.
As he spoke tears came to his eyes.
GIVE it to Mrs Mitchell and the chill
dren," he said, trembling with emo
ton. Big, hardy miners shed tears
with him. II prefer that you take the
money back, but II You cannot do that
without danger Of giving offense to the
good people who sent 1t to me. then

1t to educate our boys" The draft will
be sent to Mrs. Mitchell.

Some Of the old fishermen judged

feet in length while the other two were
much smaller. They proceeded as far
as FuWle's point and then returned to
pass out to sea. frequently coming to
the surface of the water to spout.
They were in good humored frame
of mind, lashing the water into a white
foam with their fiukes, and chased each
other about in circles and We're appar-

hilities of new discoveries of the
mineral fuels and ores In the last
few weeks the result of this great in
ventory which it has taken years to
make has been brought together in the
report submitted to the National Con-
servation Commission and it is the
existence of these quantitative data
that enables me to discuss this i'm
portant subject at all adequately.
The facts of the distribution of min
eral wealth are Of practical value be-
cause Of the vital connection between
such geographic distribution and the
development of manufactures and
commerce. | give precedence to
manufactures because this industry
rather Tran commerce should first feel
thu creative influence of mineral
wealth. The metallureical, clay-work
ing. structural, and chemical industries
constitute the web and woof of in
dustrial prosperity and to large de-
gree it is only the disregard of the
principles Of political economy that
permits the export of raw material be-
yOnd. the boundaries Of state or ma
ton. Free trade among the states of
this Union has developed great inter
state and internal commerce on a
grand scale, but this phenomenal ma
ti0nal development should not blind the
people of the individual states to the
advantage OF local utilization Of their
own mineral resources. As an illus
tratrn Of this, the new industrial
south is possible because the south has
always possessed mineral wealth.
L.tn mi,
nearly seven per cent Of the iron ore
sof the United States and over twenty
one per cent. of the coal it is simply
obedience to natural laws that the
southern furnaces should produce ten
per cent of the pig iror of the cOun-

production of supply and consump-
ton rlust be in mind before we can at

listing between all branches of the min

its future development,
Let me cite Il few characteristics of
the distribution of our mineral wealth.
In the first place, the widespread dis

On Distribution Of Nations
Mineral Resources.
Delivered Before American Mining
Congress at Pittsburg.

Plttsburg, Dec. 6.-The subject, the
Distribution of the Nations Mineral
Wealth. eminently, fits both the. place
and the occasion. The city of Pitts
burg, rightly termed the worlds in
dustrial WONDER. is founded on the
mineral resources of not only Pennsv.-
wanna put indeed of the whole country,
while YOU members of the American
Mining Congress represent the industry
that has enabled this nation to realize
rich income from its mineral heri-
tage. Nor is it inappropriate that a
representative of the United States
Geological Survey should bring to your
attention facts relating to the distribu-
ton of this mineral wealth In the
thirty years since it's organization this
federal bureau has recorded the de-
velopment of the mineral industry and
to indicate how phenomenal has been
this development I need only cite the
fact that during these three decades
the mineral production of the nation
has increased six-fold
Last year, at the Joplin session of
the Mining Congress, l had occasion to
refer to the probability that the value
of the mineral output for 1907 would
pass the two billion dollar mark The
statistics since collected have verified
that estimate, showing the value of
the 1907 mineral production to be over
two billion and sixty-nine million
dollars. In 1879 Congress expressed its
appreciation Of the Importance Of the
nations mineral wealth by establishing
scientific bureau charged with the
investigation of these resources and
