Every Chamber of Commerce of any

President Roosevelt has promised his

BEFORE COMMITTEE ON TERRITORIES

The following are extracts from the
report of the hearing by the House
committee on Territories of the Maui
electric franchise bills:
Mr. Gambler. What proportion of
the population of Hawaii is Japanese
at this time?
Mr. Coke. A little more than half
Of the population. / think there are
about 10000 Japanese on all the ISL
ands, and the population is something
like 10000 or 100000.
Mr. Gambler. And what business are
they generally engaged in?
Mr. Coke. The great majority of
them are plantation laborers, but they
have gone very thoroughly into other
matters, and are gradually displacing
the other residents there.
Mr.. Lenahan. Why is that? Is 1t
on account of the lower wages that
they work for, or on account of their
intelligence or skill?
Mr.. Coke. 1t is not on account of
their intelligence or skill. 1t is on ac-
count of the fact that they are willing
to work-especially if they work for
themselves-for a bare living, and they

The genial Secretary is not commu-
nicative on the subject. He didn't
show up at his Office until later than
usual this morning, which caused the
attaches of the Office to wonder if he
had taken to the tall timbers.
Governor FTear raises an interesting
point in the Secretary's behalf by in
quiring whether or not it can be prov
ed that Mott-Smith bagged anything,
and If not whether he could be held
to have been hunting. He would ask
if a man took a gun and went out on
the hills for the purpose Of making a
noise, could he be held to be hunting
in the eyes of the law?
The Governors knowledge of the
intricacies of the law is profound, and
if he has undertaken to defend the
Secretary, his stand in the matter
should have weight, In the meantime,
"by advise of counsel Mott-Smith re-
fuses to make any confession, even Of
so much as having seen gun while
away.
