INDICTMENT FOR
WAGE AGITATION
CFrom saturday.s AdvertIser.l

(from saturdays Advertiser.O
Charged with being a disorderly per-
son, Y. Sega, editor of the Nippu Jill,
was arrested yesterday on an indict
ment found against him by the Terri
torial grand jury. Sega was taken into
custody by Deputy Sheriff Rose and
released on $3.50 bail. He win be ar
raigned on the charge, which is a mis-
demeanor, at nine O'Clock this morning
The Indictment of Sega is the result
of the threatening attitude that has
been adopted by many of those con-
nected with the Japanese high wage
agitation.f The indictment recites
"that knowing full well that large
number of the Japanese residents of
the Territory of Hawaii were in an ex.
cited, turbulent and lawless and unruly
condition and state of mind and threat
ening to do injury to the property of
their respective employers and others
within said Territory, and more par
ticularly to do injury to the person
and property of one s. Sheba, residing
in Honolulu, and then and there and at
all times manager and president of the
Hawaii Shinpo, a daily newspaper pub
lished in the Japanese language in said
Honolulu, and the members of the
family of him, the said Sheba.''
The Indictment goes on to say that
the articles appearing in the Nippu
Jiji have tended to influence the public
mind against Sheba and are calculated
to cause violence against him and the
members of his family.

mitted that that might be true, but he
