The terms of the new immigration
bill, now pending in the Senate and
submitted to the Legislature as a
measure that would be satisfactory
to the Board of Immigration, have
produced extended discussion as to
the lengths that the Territory is JUS
tilted in going toward the bringing of
immigrants to the country and their
settlement upon the land.
One of the provisions of the new
bill allows the Board of immigration
to continue its assistance of the im-
migrant after his arrival, the Boards

tance ceasing abruptly when the new
comers land on the wharf TO this ex-

the settlement Of the immigrant up
on the land is the portion of the bill
that will be opposed vigorously upon
the floor of the Senate if it is not
stricken from the bill by the select
committee on immigration which has
the bill in charge.

THE conquest and annexation of
Korea by Japan has cost 10000 Korean
lives, and it will cost more The Jap
anese are cordially hated by the Kore-
ans, especially on account of the con
duct of the japanese soldiers toward
the Korean women, and most of the
trouble has started and continues to-
day by the invasion of the quarters

Japanese soldiers"
Such were some of the statements
made last evening by Rev. M c. Fem
wick who has spent the past twenty
one years in Korea and is now re-
turning there after a vacation of sew
eral months in the United States.
Mr.. Fenwick spent the first two years

second reading on the adoption of the
favorable report of the judiciary com
mittee, making recommendations as
follows:
This bill seeks to make it possible
in certain instances to eXpend money
for certain objects which are now only
permitted after public advertisement.
In several instances the requirement
of public advertisement before con-
tract has worked serious hardship.
Especially has this been the case with
work and especially food supplies for
the leper settlement on the Island of
Molokal. 1t has happened that after
advertisement for food supplies no bids
have been received, and a strict COM
pliance with the letter of the present
law would have left the people in the
settlement without food. There are
also certain kinds of food which have
to be bought for the leper settlement
which can be more advantageously
purchased in small quantities and at
frequent intervals"
