Alien Bill Injury to
Hawaii Sugar Planters

BY remarkable oversight In the I'm
migration bill. the business Of the sugar
planters in Hawaii Is most seriously en-
barrased- 1t is likely. in fact, to be en-
dangered.
The new bilr has not yet been adopted
by the Senate. but soon will be. II
comes up In the form Of a conference
report and hence cannot be amended.
II must be voted up or down as q
whole.
The general policy heretofore In pass
ing immigration measures has been to
except Hawaii in order to allow the
planters to get plenty of labor from
Japan. Spain. Portugal and elsewhere
for their sugar plantations It was the

persons must read In order to enter
Hawaii Frantic appeals have come to
Hawaii to correct this on the ground
the act would shut out Japanese from
there and also Spaniards and Portu-
guese of the sort that will work on the
plantations.
But these appeals are too late. II
the new measure should be in force for
many months I'm this form. 1t might
well-nigh ruin the Hawaiian sugar plan
tations, according to representations
made here. Efforts will be made
to get a special bill hurried through ex-
cepting Hawaii But such a bill IL
bound to encounter delays and II Is not
easy to foretell when Hawaii will set
relief.

complaints of the violation of the an
'tomobile law" says the report. ia
many instances it is charged that OPP
orators of cars, in order to avoid
identification remove the numbers
from their machines after getting upon
the country roads. In other cases they
use fictitious numbers, then drive reck-
lessly without regard to the life or
limb of any person or the safety f
property, and often when forced to
stop by the necessity of the case, give
false names and addresses. These
reckless operators who have no re-
gard for the rights of others, and who
by their unlawful acts are bringing
condemnation upon the great mass Of
auto owners who are law-abiding citi-
zens should find no loophole for es
cape when once apprehended. This
department has made special effort to
secure information with reference to
the laws of other states in handling
this question. The general public us
ing the highways of this state, travel
ing in other than motor vehicles, have
a fight to be protected from the care

those using such vehicles"

dollars for it's charter? If a bank
with a capital of twenty-five thousand
dollars has to pay fifty dollars for a
charter, ought not company employ

a charter fee of five hundred dollars
Other states have adopted fee bills
based on this idea. which to me seems
to be the correct one. A graduated
fee bill requiring the payment by
private companies organized for pc
Cuniary gain, of reasonable fees for
the franchises granted them by the
state, fees commensurate to the gains
to be derived from the employment Of
the franchise, would be source of
no inconsiderable revenue to the state
and would work no hardship on the
