The Hawaiian gazette., 1909-06-15

your bones build up the foundation of
your country"
"There are not moons shining every
night" one writer assures the editors
of the Shinpo and the Japanese
Chronicle. "On dark nights, take care,
for l will fix you until you are Grip
pied. Do not forgetl"
Some Published Threats.
To show that the course Of the Jiji
is growing more incendiary in spite of
the ruling of Judge De Bolt that the
articles in the .Jiji, in themselves con-
stitute disOrderly conduct and breach
of the peace, is given below the edi-
torial that was going to press at the
time Mr.. Soga was arrested, and which
appeared in the Jiji on Thursday.
This editorial shows how thoroughly
saturated the adherents of the Higher
Wage Association are with the idea
that they are going to run things in
Hawaii to suit themselves. In spite of
arrests and the admonition of the court,
and milder treatment, the Jiji renews
defiantly its admonition to its follow
ing to exterminate Sheba and his fol-
lowers. 1t is fortunate that the author
tiles have shown themselves able to
cope with the insolence and highland
ed disregard of law back of this whole
movement. The Jill article is:
"Four thousand japanese of the
three plantations, Aiea, Waialua and
Kahuku. have left the plantation with
their children. These Japanese were
sacrificed but their determination is
strong and they will never yield unless
they attain their object. The problem
for the immediate future is that of the
food supply. To make the obstinate and
blind planters reflect upon themselves
and to exterminate Sometaro Sheba,
the traitor, and his followers, we must
prepare for sustenance for longer
period. The 10000 sympathetic Japa-
nese should send money and goods. We
hope the help will be given to these
martyr strikers, so that they need not
hesitate for their own living"
Negoro's Plans.
Among Negoro's papers, in his own
handwriting, are some documents con-
sidered as highly important evidence
by the authorities. His plan, according
to his notes, is to collect money for the
defense of such men as Sogoro, whom
he styles ga Martyr and adds: elf
one martyr should appear, the members
shall unite and cause the planters to
repent their wrong actions.
Other items of his strike plans were
to collect money to bail out the mar
tyrs and to provide attorneys for them
and to provide jobs for strike helpers.
He proposed to ostracise socially the
sycOphants of the planters" and to
start strikes alternately on the differ
ent plantations.
The foregoing is considered extreme
ly valuable and significant by the au-
thorities, as it is deemed that the plan
to ostracise by combination and actual
agreement the so-called sycophants of
the planters is in itself unlawful and
constitutes a conspiracy to commit and
do an unlawful act.
Another valuable find is synopsis
of the Higher Wage drama, in Negoro Is
handwriting, something that the author
tiles have been hunting for, for some
time.
Nippu Suggests Resistance.
Speaking of the arrest of Maxine
Negoro, aud the Nippu's staff, that
paper yesterday stated that il is al
Unprecedented affair in the Territory
and condemns 1t, saying; "We mus
reprimand to the utmost the wicked ad
ministration of the authorities.
The Nippu further goes on to say
"Should any extraordinary thing hap
pen, il is not the fault of peacefu
strikers. but the whole blame should
be ON the capitalists and the authori
ties that are giving tyrannical oppres
sion -
The Nippu also ridicules Consu
Uyeno, publishing his picture In th'
center of its first page, Editorially i
called him down MS the consul wh'
brought about the strain between Chinl
and Japan, causing much loss of Japan
ese export business. 1t condemns hin
