DON'T WANT HfNDUS.

yesterday that bill exclude Japanese and 9th
Orena had been favoraby reported in the House is probably
protest against Hindu INVASION which the Pacific
beginning make strong objections. The Manchura recent
assed through here with 191 Hndus on board
isco and their arrival created big stir On day
Francisco Call printed editorial entitled Turn Back the Him
nvasion," the Chronicle had the following editorial:
If Oriental labor was to be admitted this country ALL it
should be the Chinese who head and shoulders above all
other Orentas laborers But exclude them and
properly The Nkado is reasonably successful keeping
his cooe subjects away from us as per agreement and cur
laws permit prompt deportation of all caught here without
japanese passports If Japan formally annexes Corea the
Japanese Government probably keep the Coreans
it does the Japanese but in the meantime their immigration
should be forbidden.
But above all we should at once absolutely put stop
to the importation Of East Indian coolies by immediate and
drastic legislation They said to be by far the worst OF
the Oentas in their personal habits and as competitors OF
white labor Their number is as the sands of the and
coolies number far exceeding the total present pOpua
ton of the Pacific Coast could be dumped in here and never
missed i+om their native land The Manchuria brought
and they constantly drift in from Canada They said
be coming now at the rate o 200 month and II they con
tnue be admitted the steamship companies will raise
a month There is evidence that they I'M
ported under contract They do not need to be- they con-
tnue to be admitted the steamship companies will offer all
the inducements necessary.
The people of this Coast do not want Hindoo coolies
among and to continue admit them will involve very
serious complications of many kinds The influx should be
stopped before the problem acquires greater magnitude
There is doubt to the sentiment of people 1t not
merely the opposition of labor although in this that
sufficient There protest against the submergence of
civilization from all classes of citizens shown
by the of the people of this State taken years ago by
OF the Legislature when in the whole State out OF IoI4o5
voting but 883 found to against exclusion And
that the the admission of Chinese by far
the best of all Oriental aborers There sup
pose that the sentiment has changed There always have
been and now few hundred selfish and greedy people
who do not what becomes of the country only that they
prosper by the use of degraded labor
But there other cogent for Immediate action 1t
is direct insult to China and Japan to exclude Chinese by
law and require the Japanese Government prevent m-
grafton of Japanese under penalty of legislation and yet
freely admit Coreans and Hindoos far than either
from all standpoints. What give either
China Japan for excluding virtually excluding their
subjects while freely admitting Coreans and Hndoos? Ev-
IDENTITY give When say that object
to all Aac coolies the ground that their presence tends
to degrade labor and impair standard of life
ON safe ground No Asiatic nation consider
unendly act But when exclude Chinese and require
japanese to be excluded while freely admitting all other Ash
acs, deliberately insult those nations and have ground
for complaint against form of retaliation which will be
directed not against labor which does wish
ASIA but against products which do wish to send
there And those products the products, only of
capital but of labor.
1t is a condition which demands immediate remedy,
which only Congress give
