INFORMATION ABOUT our
NEIGnBORS.

BY all odds the most interesting.
Instructive and attractive publica-
ton that has come from the oficial
press of the country Is the Month
ly Bulletion OF the International Blu
reau OF American Republics" issued
by the Bureau at Washington under
the direction OF John Barrett.
The scheme of the Bureau Is to
inform the people on what the other
Lations of the American continent
are like. II the South Americans
ore as poorly informed regarding
the United States as the average
citizen Of our country is on the ma
lions south of us. the bulletin Of the
Bureau is carrying light to the
heather. Mr.. Barrett has developed
a scheme so admirable that II will
no doubt be copied In the progress
sive centers OF South America and
the people of those countries learn
much Of the United States that will
be to mutual advantage.
The bulletin issued by the bureau
at Washington contains all the best
features of modern magazine pub
LEGATION. 1t is literally illustrated,
and the ordinarily dry statistical in
formation is dressed up in a style
not only pleasing to the student. but
attractive to the casual reader.
First perusal Of the publications
suggests that they would be splen-
did literature for public libraries.
and especially for the public schools.
The liberal illustrations and the
mass OF information makes the best
supplementary reading imaginable
for the youth studying the geogra-
ply and history Of the Western
hemisphere.
Much criticism has been directed
against the former work of the In
ternational Bureau OF Republics.
and the money for its publications
has been grudgingly granted by
Congress. II seems impossible. that
Congress should take such O position
now. The only criticism that might
be timely is that the literature OF
the Bureau is not sufficiently well
distributed, and there Is not enough
of II.

japanese styling themselves as
leaders have a mighty responsibility
In the meeting planned for the dis
cussion of the plantation strike.
They have 1t within their power to
lend honor to the name of the Jap
anese In Hawaii or brand them with
eternal disgrace, 80 far as the Ameri-
cans OF the Territory are concerned.
The citizens of the Territory have
done all the palavering they intend
to do. Their good will has been
abused. Agitators have done
their best to establish an independ-
emit japanese government in the is
lands for the control of our indus
tries. The japanese must under
stand that this cannot continue. For
eigners within this Territory must
abide by Its laws and respect its gov
eminent. Should they refuse this
they will either go to jail or get
cut. There is no halfway business
about 1t since the expose of the
Higher Wage Association scheme. Of
procedure. Our people refuse to be
further insulted.
