FEAR Congress
Will JUMP IN
Board of immigration Hopes
to Get laborers Before More
Regulations Come.

Members of the Territorial Board of
Immigration believe that while no ac-I
tion on further restrictions is prob
able durlns the present session Of
Congress, the agitation sporadically
breaking out on the mainland against
the European invasion" may result
in action during the next session It
Is felt that Congress will sooner or
later impose some rather stringent
tests on the would-be citizens. and
that among them will be the liter
acy" tests.
A literacy test would shut out much
of the present European immigration
into the Islands. Many of the peas
ants who arrived here ON the steam
ship Ortcric would have been unable
to pass even simple literacy test,
while comparatively few were pos
sessed Of more than the rudcst edu-
cation. And yet they have already
begun making reputation as about
the best immigrants the islands ever
received from Europe.
Born and brought up In the country
with all of their work out Of doors
and schools, particularly in Portugal
few and far between the Europeans
who came by the Orterlc had neither
time nor opportunity to study arith-
metic, grammar or even reading and
writing. But they are making excel
lent plantation laborcrs. and appear
to be contented, happy and hopeful
for the future.
Doubt LIterncy Test.
Members OF the Board are inclined
not TO agree that the literacy test Is
test of an immigrants fitness to en-
ter the country, and yet developments
In Congress indicate that some such
regulation will be enforced either at
the next session of Congress or the
one after It. Therefore, the policy of
the Board will be to make hay while
the sun shines" In other words. to get
all the good laborers from Europe
that can he secured before Congress
enacts regulations that would shut
many of them out.
still, It is not-considered advisable
to bring any here this summer. The
Board feels that Portugal may object
to having another ship-load taken
away before the first has had time to
get really acquainted with life In Ha-
wall. Another reason for the post
ponement of the second immigrant
ship Is that Portugal may lend Its in
fucnce to n regular steamship line
from Europe to the islands In this
case, the immigrants can he brought
at much smaller expense per capita
At the present time, the Boards
efforts are largely centered on nego-
tiations to open the way for this re-
gular line, and Or. Victor S. Clark
said recently that he feels hopeful OF
the result. Rr

You Can't Kill One.

A chronic candidate in certain
county in Arkansas who had been
defeated for the legislature for eight
recurring terms, finally grew de-
spondent over his failure and decid-
ed to commit suicide. So dise listed
was he with life and everything in
general that he determined to adopt
the most drastic means possible to
destroy himself. So he secured a
pistol, n pint of paris green, "A can OF
coal oil and a heavy weight to which
he attached strong rope, and get
ting into a boat he rowed himself
out into the middle of the river.
where he attached the weight by
means of the rope to his peck, satu-
ra ted himself with the oil, which he
lighted with match. and drinking
the poison he placed the pistol to bis
head and pulled the trigger. The
pistol ball glanced and clipped the
rope, the man fell into the water,
which extinguished the fire and
strangled him so that he vOmited up
the poison, and the. river being too
shallow to drown, he waded ashore
and was "a candidate at the next pri-
mary, and was gloriously elected to
a seat in the observation-disclosures.

TRAGEDY AT POLLOCK.
Linn Anders Killed Outright and Chas
Daigre Mortally Wounded and
Died Two Days Later.

A double tragedy occurred at Z p.
IN. Friday, July IA, at Pollock, re-
shifting in the killing outright of Llun
Anders, and the mortal wounding OF
Chas. Daigre, who was rushed to the
Alexandria sanitarium, where he lin
gered until 8 a. m. Monday, July II,
when death relieved him of his suffer
ing. Anders was about % years old
and leaves a young widow and three
children. Daigre leaves a wife and
FIVE little children.
Eye witnesses to the tragedy say
that Daigre was sitting on "A box ON
the gallery of his market. which is
in the rear of the commissary of the
Iron Mountain Lumber Company at
Pollock, and that he had placed his
horse in shed in the yard to feed
him. That Anders came through the
yard with two other men, and passed
into the shed and began to kick Dali
gre's horse and made him get out
of the shed. Daigre spoke to Anders
and told him that he had just been
feeding his horse. and that he did
not want him kicked that way. That
Anders answered he would kick the
horse if he wanted to and that il
Daigre came out there he would kick
him the same way.
Daigre went into the meat market
and got his pistol. As he came out
the door, witnesses say Anders began
to shoot at Daigre, firing three or
four times, one bullitt entering
Daigre's bowels and another entering
his right arm. That Daigre fired one
shot, which entered Anders' body
under the left arm, killing him in
stantly.

Mrs. Angelina Neapolitarlo's Sentence

Mrs. Angelina Neapolitario's Sentence
COMMITTED.
The Canadian Cabinet on July
18th committed the sentence of
death for Mrs. Angelina Neapoli-'
tano to life Imprisonment. On
Easter Sunday, April 16, 1911,
she killed her Italian husband for
trying to force her to lead a life
of shame for his benefit. She
was the mother of four children,
and killed him in the protection
|of her name and their honor.
She was quickly convicted and
would have been hung ere this,
but the hanging was postponed
to August 9th, in order to allow
the birth of her unborn child,
the officials not wanting to kill
both mother and babe. The in
justice and revolving circum-
stances caused horror both in
Canada and the United States,
and millions of signatures were
signed to petitions for her par
don. Gov. Sanders signed one
of the petitions ,from Louisiana,
and also wrote a persona i letter
asking pardon for the unfortu.
nate woman. 1t is now to be
hoped that she will be al lowed t.
