waiting for lower rates. and meanwhile the ter

become good citizens are not lcSscning. The
needs are the increase
Secretary Fishers questioning on immigra-
ten matters here made it plain that his idea of
the work Of the territorial board is to bring poO-
pie to the islands who will at least not lower the
general average Of citizenship. The Portuguese
and Spaniards brought here during the past two
or three years are reported to be turning out

adopted country. The work of bringing white
farmers from the mainland should, Of course,
not be halted but the immigration boards activ-

FROM 1 DAUGHTER OF THE
REVOLUTION.

Honolulu. De" ~ IHi9.
Editor Honolulu Star-BullrUn.
Sir read with much interest the
article in last nights Star-Bulletln in
regard to the soldiers and white ad-
venturers from the mainland. Kindly
permit ME as d Daughter OF the ReVO-
luton TO come forward and defend
our soldiers. Il is an injustice and
great unkindness to attack the entire
lot of enlisted men here just because
one or two have done wrong. Is il
not quite as just to- say all the bust
nessmen of Honolulu are thieves and
scOundrels just because q dozen or so
have cheated some OF the poor old
Hawaiiaps out OF their homes? Why
pick the American soldiers for exam
pies? We're there no cases OF rape.
etc, before they ever came here?
The case here lis quite as the sol
diers say. They have a hard enough
time of it as it is" Any decent white
girl seen keeping company" with a
soldier is put down on a lower level
at once, even though she does come OF
a good family. Many OF us here who
would like TO recognize the boys dare
not because if We do We are in turn
snubbed by some of our citizen friends
and for one who lives here from
years end TO years end it does not
help to make life very pleasant.
Suppose we have war with another

WILSON CONFERS
WITH SENATORS
Seeks Information From Mem
berS of Congress to Map Out
Legislative Program.

TRENTON, y. j.. Dec. @0.-CoVern-
or Wilson today began series Of con-
ferences with members of the senate
and house. with view to deciding up
on legislation to be presented at the
extra session. The most important Of
those visitors was to be Congressman
William G. Redfeld, of Brooklyn, who
supplied the governor with much mate
rial for his tariff speeches. ANA is re-
garded by the governor as the greatest
expert in the country on the subject.
The governor also expected to meet
Senators John Sharp Williams. of Mis-
sssippi; Luke Lea, of Tennessee and
Chamberlain, of Oregon.
Colonel j. Hamilton Lewis. athe pri-
mary choice for United States senator
in Illinois, was the first to get the ear
Of the president elect today. He re-
manned with him for about AN hour.
and then he emerged.
Mr.. Lewis said;
Il can not. of course. discuss the
things Governor Wilson said to me- |
must leave that to him. For myself I
can say that l called the governors at
tention to the strong likelihood of hav-
ing two Democratic senator's from Hi
nois. | assured him that all the Demo-
cratic factions. headed by Governor
Dunno, Mayor Harrison and Roger Sui
livan, were for me- and chat they were
anxious to give him two senators. on
the theory that the people had chosen
to try his policies and that two sena-
tors were necessary machinery to put
them through. Illinois is patriotic and
recognizes this fact. I pointed out that
these two senators could be obtained
by the addition to the Democratic ranks
Of six Progressive votes in the Illinois
house"
