A striking instance of the opportunities for ad

the Southern Railway Company of R F. Simpson,
who began his railway in the lowly capacity
From that meager assignment to his present
position of responsibility covering period of thir
tytwo years, there was not step on the long lad
der of experience which he failed to climb and hav-
ing filled every position with ability, he has now
at his command that knowledge of the details of
of his office.

Flattery is not accuracy. The other night our

progressives and republicans, addressed mixed

Let us look into this Assuming that there was
some housekeeping to be DONE what house was to
be cleaned? Certainly the republican house There
was no other with which the men, then republicans,
who have since constituted a part progressive
party could have been concerned.
But. has the republican house or any apartment
of it been cleaned? Are the same men who

of it? Are they thoroughly in control

Coming to the Arizona apartment of the repub-

men who participated in the theft of nomination
for the presidency yet the leaders of republican

all?
Mr. Morrison is fundamentally in error. The
progressive movement Wis not housekeeping

WANT EUROPEANS
TO DISPLACE
ASIATICS
ri ....

LONDON-A deputation from the
transport workers federation, repre-
senting the ~seamen and firemen's
union and. the national union of cooks
and stewards, which are affiliated to
the federation, were received recently
by John Burns at the Offices Of the
board of trade.
Mr.. Costing, in introducing the dep
utation, pointed out that the question
on which they desired to approach
the president of the board of trade
was the displacement of European
labor by Asiatics in the mercantile
marine, but this was not only a Ques-
.tion which affected the mercantile
marine, but was also receiving the
very serious attention of every Sec
ton, of labor.
Chinese on Ships. r..
Hayelock Wilson said the number
of Asiatics and lascars, including Chi
nese, serving in British ships in all
waters had steadily increased. Asia
tics serving under Asiatic agreements
had increased from 1880 in 1909 to
47,211 in 1912. Those under Euro
.peana articles had increased from
5797 In 1909 to 1886 in 1913. He also
pointed out the increase in the num-
Der of Chinese clearinghouse in the
country, which was an Indication, he
said, of the increase of the number
of Cinnamon competing with Euro
ships IT,.
But there was another evil which
pean seamen for positions on board
general public and society at large
were beginning to realize, and that
was the paying off of Chinese in Brit
ish ports, which was fast creating a
colony of Chinese half-breeds, par
ticularly in London, Liverpool and
Cardiff. He asked for a stricter en-
forcement by the boards officials Of
the merchant marine act of 1908, par
ticularly in the question of the Ian
guage test. which, he thought, had
been more honored in the breach
than the observance. -#4..- ...~
j. Cotter, supporting Mr.. Wilson,
said with the act of 1906 came in
what they called the ships cook GER
tificate," and he maintained that so
per cent of those who were taking
advantage of the cookery schools in
the various parts of the United King
dom were Cinnamon. ....
Powers Limited.
Mr., Burns, In his reply, gave the
deputation a very sympathetic re-
Spouse. He was very glad that Mr.
Wilson had pointed out that the pow
ers Of the board of trade were limit
ed, but he added.that in so far as lay
in his hands as president of the board
of trade those powers would be exer-
eised with diligence and determine
ton and continuity. The language
test. he continued. would be applied
consistently, and the deputation
might take it for granted that moth
ing would be left undone that could
be done to prevent the alleged evil
increasing. -.
But he, wished to point out and
wanted the deputation to realize, that
according to the latest returns avail
able the number of European foreign
ers employed on British vessels had
decreased, and that although it was
not shown that the Asiaties had de-
creased, yet the increase of Asiatics
was a very small percentage.

are inclined to oppose payment of the

This denouement is leading the su-
pervisors on a tour of investigation
over the North Hilo district this
morning, and in consequence the July
