Immigration Affairs
Speaking as chairman Of the terri.
torial board Of immigration, Mr.. lyers
said he and others and the plantation
interests had worked 10 encourage i'm
migration spending great sums Of
money for immigration Of those eligible
20 become citizens. Lately not much
had been done owing TO the excessive
cost Of charters for vessels TO, bring
white immigrants here. In the past
year, two steamer loads Of Portuguese
and Spanish had been brought in. Not
so many Russians had been brought
here, as they were not as good planta-
tion lAborers as expected, but they
were very good in other places, as he
had heard from Pearl Harbor.
al have heard that these laborers
were subjected. to petty annoyances In
their endeavoTs TO 20 to the Coast, -
said the Secretary.
al don't know of any hindranee, T"
replied Mr.. Ivers.
This was the first opening up of the
notorious steamer Senator cases, when
the Alaska Gamers sent agents here to
recruit laborers from among the assist
ed immigrants brought here at such
heavy expense from Spain, Portugal
and Manchuria, as we'll as Filipinos
brought here by the planters assoeia-
ton, following up the agents with a
steamship into which several hundred
men and boys were loaded and sent to
the Alaska eanneries, under induce
ments of big pay and alluring prospects.
