For Better Housing.
The Associated Charities has another
distinct value II is important to have
in every community a body organized
and ready at hand that can take up and
push forward special lines Of work; such
as the securing Of new and better laws
and the removing of old abuses. In this
way the association, through its leaders
or its committees. has taken UP the matter
Of better housing for the poor, Of play
grounds for the children. Of the opening
OF filthy alleys, the prevention and cure
Of tuberculosis. the publication of the
milk supply, the law for establishing
juvenile court, the law to compel shirlS-
ing husbands and fathers to support their
families. and other kindred movements.
II is not pretended that all of the good
that has been done along these lines has
been done by the association. but a good
part Of it has.
ITO seriously criticise the general plan
Of work OF the Associated Charities is TO
take up the gantlet for an outworn and
discredited method Of dealing with the
poor; and few, II any. will be willing to
do # who have any knowledge Of the
facts.
Yet the criticisms that have been
made. mostly from misconcepuon and
from want OF information, are seriously
embarrassing the work. People are not
always unwilling to believe there Is some
good reason why they should not give or
that it is at least doubtful whether it is

Want Action.


''Only the most prompt action on the
part of the federal government, forced
to act by aroused public opinion, can
check the evils now fostered in these
Islands-can stop these Islands from
being made use of as bridge over
which a low class of laborers can in
wade the Pacific Coast States and bring
about there the same conditions as now
exist in Hawaii.
"The fact is that the sugar corpora
tions of the Hawaiian Islands are over
capitalized, and that any fair valuation
shows large profits. If the sugar plant
ers were prohibited from further i'm
portation of orientals they could and
would get laborers from the United
States who would Americanize these
Islands This might relieve the situa-
ton, although it might somewhat re-
duce the large profits of the sugar plant
ers. butt would still permit of fair
profit on legitimate investments. There
fore it is highly recommended by us, the
committee which represents the labor
organization of the city of EiilO, that
the passage of an act by congress APP
PLYING to the exclusion of lahorers of
a low standard of living into these Is
lands, who could never become good
American citizens. is absolutely neces-
sarv to protect this Territory and the
mainland Steps should also be taken
TO enforce the present immigration laws

The Letter.

Sir:-In dealing with the labor
problem in the Territory of Hawaii our
minds are flied with hopelessness that
one meets in the expression of a race
that is doomed to extinction. This
feeling of hopelessness is shared by the
white people who have grown to like
these beautiful islands and their sim
pie people, and who realize that soon
they must leave the Islands or sink to
the oriental standard of living.
''For instance, the carpenter work
and that of other trades in the city
Of Hilo has been done mostly by Japa
nese, because the white mechanic could
not compete under any circumstances
with the Jap in bidding on contracts.
The japanese have been paid a labor
wage upon which white mechanic
would starve. The japanese carpenter
is getting from $1.25 per day to $3.50;
the white carpenter is getting from
$3.50 to 5000 per day. Under the ex-
listing conditions the white mechanics
have been driven out by the cheap, but
infinitely less efficient, japanese. To
prove the truth of our statement, we
will show that today on the planta
tions blacksmiths, carpenters, engineers
and even the sugar boilers owe allegi-
ance to the Mikado.

copy of the communication that was de-
livered this morning to the commission
er from the mainland. 1t draws atten-
ton to the manner in which Japanese
carpenters displace Americans; also that
blacksniths, sugar boilers and engineers
employed on the plantations bear al
legiance to the mikado; that. owing to
the military works on the Islands, there
has been a slight increase in the skilled
white labor employed on Oahu, but not
by the Plantations anywhere.
The letter also. draws attention to
the rapid approach to American citi

Cheap Labor.

'Now since the beginning of what
is virtually the military occupation of
the Islands. the number of citizen
mechanics is again increasing, though
few American mechanics are employed,
except on government works. The Jap
anese came in as cheap laborers, and
cheap laborers they have remained who
have gradually driven out many citizen
laborers from many lines of work.
Now the japanese have been ex-
Guided not by an exclusion act on the
part of the United States, but by prohl-
bition on the part of the government
of Japan. No more japanese iaborers
are coming in, and some Of those who
were here at the time the prohibition
of emigration from Japan to the Unl-
ted States went into effect have drifted
away. But the total japanese populat
tion in Hawaii is decreasing very little,
if at all, births among the resident
japanese being probably enough to
make up for emigration and deaf MS.
This has its political as well as Its
sociological aspect, for many of the
japanese children born on American
soil and therefore eligible to become,
by the simple act of election, American
citizens. are reaching their majority.
Some have already become voters and
the time is not far distant when the
legislature Of the Territory of Hawaii
NAV be largely composed of japanese.

DRIVER THROWN OUT
 AND HEAD WAS GUT.
Pair of Blacks Frightened in Broad
 way Furnish Excitement.

A handsome pair of black horses at tached to a buggy and driven by a man named Rogers, from Plain Hill, fur nished a lively runaway on Broadway on Friday evening about 7-30 o'clock, but did little damage. for the length of their run. Above Broadway hill they started to run for some reason. throw ing their driver out when they hit the curb up there. They just missed coll Hiding with an automobile and dashed down the hill. As they rounded the Norwich Savings society corner the buggy was dragging on its side. Po- liceman Myron Morgan tried to head them off and then to grab the reins. but happened to be on the wrong side of the team.
 The horses turned down Market street and into Water street, where they were almost winded and were caught by William McMahon as they slowed down before reaching Washing ton street.
 A young man started to drive the team and buggy up around through Church street. when a back wheel came off About this time MT. Rogers arriv- ed, having been picked up by William F. Bailey, who followed the runaway team with his light concord buggy.
 MT. Rogers had a slight cut in the back of his head, and the principal in- jury to the buggy was a broken top. The blankets that had been thrown out were recovered in Broadway. Later in the evening MT. Rogers brother came down from Plain Hill and assist ed him home with the team from Bai- Iey's stable.
