Immigration IS
At SLACK WATER

Nothing has been heard from DR..
Victor s. Clark, chief Of the Hawaiian
immigration service, since he was
authorized to proceed from the 18th
mus of Tehuantepec to Cuba to inves-
tigate the chances of obtaining Span
ish immigrants.
A. j. Campbell is still on the job
with regard to Portuguese immigra-
ton, and at last accounts was in Lon
don. AS the latest reports from the
Azores are that the cholera epidemic
has become worse, the realization OF
anything but expense from Campbells
mission appears remote.
No responsibility for the undesir-
able elements from the Philippines is
taken by the Board of immigration
and that body had nothing to tell Com
missioner Keefe about the matter. II
/ the meantime the associated sugar
planters are anxiously waiting for
better supply of labor than they are
able at present to find by their owl
exertions.
Considerable trouble is still coming
to the board from the Russian colon,
at Iwilei. Some of these people vii
complain that they cannot get wori
yet when employment is found TO

KONOHI

The Chinese New Year celebration
is drawing to a close, after scores of
entertainments and explosion of
thousands Of fire crackers. Today
the usual reception was held at the
consulate, but it was marred some
what by the existing differences be-
tween the consul and many of the
local Chinese. The controversy was
not allowed to interfere with the
general enjoyment of the holidays,
however, nor with the prOverbial
hospitality of the Chinese.
The Chinese do not celebrate very
often, but when they do they give
| themselves over to it in manner that
is thorough in every way. All the
year round, in their own country at
! least, they work, and their shops are
| always open for business, except at
Chinese New Year. During this pc
Rod of celebration all business is sus-
pended, except that of pleasure and
the conveyance of good wishes for the
coming year.
On the big stores in the Treaty
ports of China one only sees the shut
tiers up during the days that the own
ers are passing through these times
of, strenuous enjoyment, for even or
Sunday the shops remain open exact
ly as they do on week days. Affixed
to the shutters, or the doors, are the
familiar oblong slips of red paper witt
the four characters containing the sea
sonable wishes. Newspapers suspend
publication for one or two days in or
der that the printers may have theii
holidays, hongs, (offices), banks ant
stores close up because there is {
shortage of boys" In this way
foreigners enjoy a holiday as well.
Honolulu Chinese have transplanteC
their customs. Their new year cele
brations were begun at twelve o'clocl
midnight on Saturday, with the blow

Although stocks are remarkably
strong for the conditions of the sugar

and committee places, and for years
has held all of its meetings on the
Palolo side of Waialae road. Never
theless with a few exceptions, mostly
of residents along the car line, the
Paloloites have not attended the meet
ings nor taken any active interest in
the club.
The Kaimuki people, some of whom
we're the original promoters of the
club, are going to maintain the organ
ization, with or without their Palolc
neighbors, and the only question fol-
all concerned is whether one joint

THREAT
Of SECESSION

Statements are made in a news ar
ticle i'm the Bulletin to which mem
bers of the Waialae, Kaimuki, and
Palolo Improvement Club take strong
exception. Several of these have re-
quested tnat the statements be cor
rected.
It is represented that the club Is
giving preference to a public park
over public school for the district.
As a matter of fact the leading topic
of discussion at the last two meetings
of the club was that of a school. At
was referred to live committee which
will handle it through representations
both to the educational department
and the legislature.
At the meeting before the last the
latest mention of the park was made,
being report of progress. This mat
ter is practically settled, all but the
improving of the park, as the superin-
tendent of public works long ago def.
Ritely stated his intention to have
the reservoir site turned over to thC
club for a park.
With reference to the announcement
that the Palolo people will NEE
shortly to organize an improvement
club of their own, the president an,
the two previous presidents of tn
W, X. and P. club in conversation
this morning said that, while the Pa
