Result Is Threats.

As result of such articles, as quoted,
the lives of Messrs. Sheba and Kimura
are threatened. On Tuesday last, the
following letter was received at the
office of the Chronicle:
g Editor Sheba and Kimura: We
thought that you were working for our
interests but now we hear that yours
are the organ of the planters and that
you are the planters dog and pig. Dog
means spy in Japanesel. We-are sub.
scribing for your papers but if you are
not with the righteous cause we will
all discontinue cur subscriptions. There
are thirty of us. Sheba [grass in Jap
anese] will die out by-and-by. Beware,
YOU fellows. We are lenient so far with
you, but look out if you do not change
| your attitude. When the time comes
your heads, even though you may have
| ten thousands of them, will not be
enough.

Preying On Flesh and Blood.

Many Japanese lives were sacrificed
to build up the plantations. These lives
that were lost We're our contributions to
the capitalists; therefore we can say
that these capitalists are preying on
the flesh and blood of our laborers in
living the life of pomp and luxury. The
magnificent residences of the capitalists
are all built upon the skeletons of our
laborers who sacrificed their lives for
the sake of the plantations. There is
a law against cruelty towards animals
but the planters are treating US worse
than beasts.

Dogs, Idiots and Lunatics.

From the papers edited by the plant
ers dog (Sheba) and pig (Kimura)
we are Informed that Mr.. J. P. Cooke
is decidedly against the cause we are
advocating. He is quoted as saying
that the planters will never yield to-
agitation even at loss of million dol
lars to them. We are astonished at his
big lying. 1t is almost too ridiculous
to read. Blind men do not fear
snakes. and this justly applies to an
idiot like Cooke. If all the planters
have same mind as he has Hawaii can
never raise ton of sugar. They try
to threat our laborers and turn down
their just demand. Their lunacy and
stolidity have no comparison.
. "When we, the members of the High
er Wage Association, are trying to
knock down the planters with the prob
lem of higher wages, the spy-like at
titude of the planters dog-like papers
IS putting obstacles in our way. They
are trying to betr;,y our thirty thousand
laborers. They are treading down the
laborers' interests.
"Now, what can we do with them?
An old poem reads:
s. Take up your weapon, warriors!
And guard the palace of thy Emperor,
Where cherry blossoms scatter in the
air. Meaning bloodshedl.
NOW is the times when the laborers
should bear in mind the spirit of the
poem quoted above. Do not miss the
chance. Take up the heavy iron ham
mer and get rid of the odious fools
who are the planters spies and are
traitors to our people.
"Take this chance to get rid of them
and then press upon the planters our
| claim. Do not leave our affairs in the
hands of spies. They will suck the
blood, not only of yourselves but Of
your dependents. We shall have to
work like slaves forever if we do not
take this chance ard get rid of them.
| Are you willing to accept the present
deplorable condition on the plantations?
| It is disgrace to the japanese race
| to do so. We shall never enjoy our
full rights and privileges until we ex,
terminate these planters spies. Nip
the weed in the bud or the time will
come when even an ak will be of nc
use. Correspondence, published Jan
uary II.
