Mr.. Garfield
AND chinese
THE CHINESE INFORMATION COM
SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR.

Secretary Garfield will give some
time to the consideration of the
Chinese labor conditions of Hawaii.
Although he will not probably take up
questions connected directly with ex-
clusion legislation, which comes under
another department, he will no doubt
inform himself fully as to some of the
special Chinese needs of this Territory.
The Chinese information Committee
of Honolulu is looking Forward TO his
visit as a fine opportunity for present
ing many facts as to the Chinese OF
Athe islands. BY the mail yesterday
the committee received the following
letter, under date of June 4, from Hon.
Edw. II. Haskell, who is much inter-
ested in their movement:
Il received your letter and note what
you write (as to Chinese labor needsl
and in reply would say that | have
brought this matter to the attention of
Senator Lodge and the Committee on
Foreign Affairs, with some suggestions.
II am just advised that Mr.. Garfield,
of the Presidents Cabinet, is about
starting for Honolulu, to make a study
of this matter, and | hope you will get
in touch with him at once, as l feel
that he can be OF a good deal of service
to you in the cause you are pressing"
The Chinese information Committee
will present to Secretary Garfield with
other information the following facts
that it deems good reasons why the
Chinese of these islands should receive
special consideration.
l. The Chinese now in Hawaii have
come almost entirely from the indus
| trious, hard working, farming class of
! South China.
2. They are in their own country
an agricultural people and are peace
able, law-abiding nd willing to learn.
8. They make the best labor Hawaii
has ever had.
T. They began the planting Of rice
and started the first sugar plantation
in these islands.
5. They began, over fifty years ago,
by their thrifty energy, to develop anu
increase the wealth and resources Of
these islands.
g. They have reclaimed and made
productive large tracts of formerly
worthless lands. They have interested
themselves in public Improvements,
works Of charity, Christian churches,
schools and newspapers.
7. A large part of their money Is
spent in the Territory.
s. Their taxes furnish good share
of the support of the government,
8. The Chinese children are most
diligent in school often leading in
their CLASSES, and furnishing a good eX-
ample to other nationalities
TO- Many Of the young Chinese born
in Hawaii gladly avail themselves of
the privileges Of American citizenship.
As citizens, they are a credit to the
community
II. The Chinese have been treated
fairly and kindly.
70. They are we'll liked by the Hs-
waiians and also by the whites
10. There is no Chinese race quea-
ton in Hawaii They have lived for
more than fifty years in friendly inter-
course with all the various nation
alities in these islands

Alaska is practically under the same
conditions now as New Mexico and the
other territories on the mainland, with
the exception that it has a judicial

made a pretty landing.
Before she was fully moored the SEN

sary tho they be, to the Immediately
temporary discomfort of deck officers,
and on a battleship where there are
about to be reception functions they
would have been particularly in the
way. A few newsboys with papers to
sell were admitted and members of the
press and others with important bust
ness were allowed aboard.
Commandant Corwin p Rees Of the
United States Naval station here was
the first caller aboard the flagship OIL
the special squadron and he welcomed
to Hawaii Secretary of the Interior
Garfield, a young appearing and SEEM
ingly most agreeable official. Then
the red auto of the Governor rolled to
the gangway and the Governor pro-
perly silk-hatted and befrocked, &C
companied by Secretary Mott-Smith in
his noticeably utra-democratic white
duck and straw hay and w. o. Smith
and H. Il. Cooper, were ushered aboard
in true Naval style, through an avenue
OF Marines, and presented to Secre-
eral conversation of compliments,
chiefly, and little small talk, heavier
things being reserved until later, the
party disembarked and Governor Frear,
Secretary Garfield, Captain HARDER OF

the latter sitting in front, boarded the

the Naval station where the saluting

From the Naval station the party
was wheeled to the Governors office
where the heads of Federal and Terri

Secretary of the Interior and the Com

FEAST OF DOLLS

"There is a new woman in Japan"
says Miss Alice M. Bacon, for many
years head mistress of the Peeresses'
school in Toxic land she is the prob
lem of the day in Japan. Girls are
coming into the cities from the whole
country to go to school, and it is q
problem to know what to do with them.
They know only the old system and
their parents know only that, but they
feel the pulse of the new life and they
cannot be held back.
"It is rather pathetic that the Japan
csc girl knows SO well that her school
days are her happiest days. She never
plans the gay, happy years when I'm
grown up Instead she takes all her
little schoolgirl pleasures with the full
consciousness that when they are over
there will come time when devotion
to duty will be almost the only pleasure
in life for her. She knows that after
her school days the mother-in-law's
house waits for her, and that there in
the lowest place in strangers house
she will have to work patiently her way
up to the respect and good will of the
strange family.
1.-THE little daughter of a wealthy
house goes to school from to II. She
learns reading, writing, natural science,
English, the koto, cooking and cere-
mony.
1.-THE rules of the tea ceremony were
fixed about the time the Spanish Ar
mazda was besieging Elizabeth. Every
movement of the woman, every posi-
ton Of cup, spoon, tea, caddy, towel, is
prescribed.
ITO "a foreigner Japanese sewing
seems so extremely simple that it would
hardly seem necessary to study it, but
the Japanese girl applies herself to 1t
with the knowledge that in the future
the appearance of her children, her
husband, her mother-in-law and faith
er-in-law will all be set down to her
credit or discredit.
'She learns to cook sufficiently to
direct her servants, particularly in the
line of rice and pickles.
1.-THE daughter of the house must
learn to arrange the flowers not only
artistically but so that they will bear
that wealth of symbolism found in
every Japanese girls festival In the
storehouse, where are kept all the fam
ily treasures, there are boxes filled
with dolls which have come down from
the grandmothers and great-grand-
mothers. Each new bride brings her
dolls when she comes to her father-in-
laws house, and she keeps the feast
each year till her eldest daughter is old
enough to take it up."-London News,
