Especial Star-Bulletin Correspondence
HlI1U, Sept. 2.--In a speech during
the course of which he bitterly at
tackled the present system of immi-
grafton to the Territory and the class
of immigrants who are being brought
here, John Bohnenberg, the veteran
politician, seemed to find a sympa-
thetic note among the members of the
Hilo Labor Union, who met in the Y.
NJ, |. Hall this morning to celebrate
Labor Day. 1t was originally planned
to hold a procession, but the weather
was threatening and the idea was
abandoned in favor of meeting in
the hall and speeches.
Bohnenberg bitterly attacked the
system OF Immigration in vogue here
at the present time, and under which
what he terms the lowest class or Asi.
atIes are being brought into the Ter
ritory to work in competition with cit
fZens. ..sr-
'One of our main IDEAS" he stated,
lis to elevate humanity. Can we do
this when people are shipping into
this country. month after month the
lowest class of AsiaticS? When they
are bringing in here to place In com.

nlanity I tell yon we can not ado
ik. = .s = = -.
ffes dwell on a case that had come
to his knowledge when shipment of
Fflipinus had arrived at Hilo most of
whom were practically naked Pro
posing what amounts practically to a
boycott of Filipino labor, and asking
the members of the union to stand
together and pay a citizen more wages
rather than have the work done by
Filipinos at a cheaper cost, he wound
up with. In order to stop this infa;
nous immigration we will have to
stand together. We will have to vote
together" .-,. .,...5 !. j."
The tone of the meeting generally
was to keep the union as a separate
union in the coming political cam.
paign. The members were unani.
nous in their opinion that they should
stand together and vote together. AT

Armory after having been doing duty
in the field since last Wednesday
night. All the men, with the excep-

the case in former years. The Maui
men received their. stipend this morn

There has been considerable grum.
bling over the cut in pay this year,
and the guardsmen as whole fail
to understand why they should not
get the money which has always been
promised them. Heretofore the Ter
ritory has paid out of the contingent
fund $3.50 to each private, to bring
the minimum compensation up, to 81

so cents is counted in. The money
which would have been coming to
the miIitia for this years encamp-
ment was used up in the MOSQUITO
campaign last year, at the time of the
yellow fever scare. There is consid-
erabIe dissatisfaction, the pay mix-up
taking the edge off an otherwise sue
cessful camp. and there is good
chance that enough pressure will be
brought to bear to secure the passage
of a special appropriation by the next
Legislature, to provide funds for pay.
