This work will take the practical
form of the publication of a review,
with the object of guiding the current
thought, the establishment of lecture
courses, the interchange of visits of

Soroku Ebara, who was sent to Cali
fornia by the governmental party Of
Japan, sent home report in which he
declares that despite numerous strong
points in favor of the Japanese abroad
they still retain their peculiar trai7e
which prevent them from associating
with people among whom they live. H
strongly urges Japanese to pay
more heed to this point, as otherwise
he fears for the future of Japanese in
foreign lands.
Cling to Own Customs.
The Japanese, he asserts, enjoy high
repute in labor circles in Hawaii AMI
give satisfaction to their employers in
general, but even in Hawaii some signs
are already visible of the exclusion Of
the Japanese in the future. For in
stance, the land owners in Hawaii
every year send over laborers from
Portugal and Spain and give them
higher wages than the Japanese.
Ebara cites the report of the Ha-
waiian chamber of commerce, in which
il is alleged that the Japanese do not
care to fraternize with the Hawaiians
and cling too much to their own Gus
toms and habits. The report claims
that the Japanese settlers do not take
any interest in the welfare af Hawaii.
and it would be better for Hawaii to
replace them by Spaniards, Portuguese
and Filipinos.

PUBLIC DOES NOT

CLARK
About Caucus Proceedings,
But Murdoch Tells Him
1t Does.
tuv AaaeelAItp sntas,

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Sept. "a
Speaker Clark quit his gavel today
to take the floor to defend the Demo-
cratic caucus against the Republican
attack.
This continual howl about the
caucus is the most idiotic thing that
has assembled to Heaven in the last
generation" shouted the speaker.
THE country wants to know what
Congress does and it does not care
three whoops how it did 1t. we have
revised the tariff and put through a
bill changing the banking and cur
rency system. II those measures are
not good we will be the ones to sur
fer. If they are, We will gain, but
we did not propose to let you Repuo-
licans bring up other subjects on the
floor while they we're under consider
alton and distract the attention of
mebers and of the country from the
great issue involved"
Speaker Clark said he would not
answer Republican attacks by call
ing attention to the way former
Speakers Reed and Cannon put
through legislation. "That would
be case of pot calling the kettle
black said he. "a lot OF you fel-
lows have been talking too much for
your own good. anyhow" concluded
the speaker to the accompaniment
of a prolonged outburst of applause
from the Democrats.
Progressive Leader Murdock took
issue with Speaker Clark over his
statement that the country did not
care how Congress did things SO
long as they were done. Mr.. Muir
dock said the caucus resulted in lack
of decorum brought about by a
small attendance and ended in gag
rule. He said there was no reason
the doors of committee room
should not be open.
