to compromise on the question of
race equality and assimilation?
1t appears reasonable for US to
face facts as they are today-to IN
sist upon safety first at the expense
Of an apothegm of yesterday however
venerable and sanctioned by holy
writ.
We can respect our international
acquaintance, and throw wide the
gates of commerce, but we have the
right to name our friends and we
know who our enemies are, and they
are at liberty to remain such.
We neither invade nor trespass up
on any mans dunghill, and we shall
choose those whom we wish to share
our hospitality. y
Admitted that the Jap is quiet,
orderly, and averse to strikes, but
that does not place racial equality in
the affirmative.
We favor legal exactitude rather
than "gentleman's agreement, :"
under which we suffer the insolence
of picture brides, and the contempt
of a sneak-in through Mexico and the
British northwest.
The Jap has Formosa, Korea, and
has made brazen inroads upon China,
Siberia and Saghalien. We bar the
brigand.

THE JAPANESE IN CALIFORNIA
(By Matthew Henry Jameson)

The "Jap'' is the original of thu
"Man with the Hoe" He is a skill
full gardener. I saw him the Other
day from the car window looking like
bundle of rags, crouched low, with
incredible patience, wedding out and
thinning the long rows in the market
garden, while on the outside of the
fence stood a ''native son" with his
hands in his pockets, smoking a cigar
cite, complacantly looking upon the
toiler at his task.
The difference between the two
men is fundamental. Age-a vast
interregrum-has dissolved their
identity and custom has changed
their infinite variety.
The Clap" belongs to a branch of
the race that hopefully accepted the
decree ''by the sweat of thy brow
shalt thou eat bread"
For ages he has stood in liquid
mind on his native terraced hillsides
and with unwearied patience set the
rice plants-one slender root in its
place--til the whole was completed
for a future harvest, meanwhile the
Yankee dreamed of a shorter method
of sowing and reaping; he had a
vague conception of a reaper and
mower, tractor and a thresher. Both
toiled for better day, and both in
measure realized their hopes. Nippon
achieved the finest quality of rice
known to commerce, while the
Yankee perfected mis- machinery, and
had time to spare, and his idle hours
brought temptation, and very con-
siderable per cent of his descendants
prefer to loiter on easy street. In
this way the Pacific coast has come
into the possession of a nondescript
known as "the native son" whose
"Mother takes in washing. And so
does sister Ann" The Pacific crown
prince cultivates his mustache, con-
centrates his fancy upon the latest
necktie and lightly dismisses the lit
tie brown man who raises garden sass
to feed his digestion.
There can be no doubt of the fact
that the Jap has the advantage of age
long discipline in patient toll. He
starts in life obsessed with the con-
viction that subservience to the de-
cree that followed expulsion from the
garden is his predetermined lot in
life. He is the slave of unnumbered
ages He has been known to spend
a lifetime perfecting single piece
of statuary. How he subsisted mean
while is mystery. He is the conun-
drum of the modern world, sly, ag-
gressive, inscrutable, redoubtable.

Almost generation has passed
since General Grant returned from
his World-tour He was accompanied
by naive little Jap servitor who, at
his elbow, alert as a rat-terrier, an
ticipated his wants, brushed his hat,
polished his Shoes, injected sallaams
when there was no occasion to do so.
He was so cute that Mrs. Grant fell
in love with him for his devotion and
his quaint ways. He did things bet
ter than the ''Melican man. can do
them; he had the scent of the bird
dog for service.
In due time milady of the upper
strata discovered him and made the
most of him as a domestic servant,
and in that class he had all his rivals
beaten far and away. He featured
as a cook after slight training, as a
Northumberland, as a -shock-absorber
for the head of the family. San
Francisco exploited, applauded,
banked on him. He readily became
the substitute for the Sinking life of
the Native Son. He became an ex-
pert at a hundred indispensable nee
ssary little things which we despise
to do for ourselves.
By and by, like a food that
comes in the night, the little brown
man swarmed in the city and over
the country districts, and the sugar
barons of Hawaii Caught on" and
imported him into the islands by the
cargo. Here he has received sixty
five cents per diem but demanding
one dollar and twenty-five cents on
the sugar plantations, which is
surprising wage compared to our con-
tinental rates.
Greed brought the African to these
shores; greed brought the African
under the Stars and Stripes, and we
can now repent at our leisure. Cali
fornia has eighty seven thousand of
them The Hawaiian Islands have
of $50 thousand; II thou
sand of these are whites and about
103 thousand of the total are Japan
csc.
After the slump of high water the
descendants of Noah scattered over
the globe; as they frayed out some of
them lodged in the tropics where the
under the skin darkened and
the lips thickened because "the sun
hath shone upon them" In the
neutral zone the yellow races devel-
oped and nearer the arctic circle the
with yellow hair and
blue eyes emerged to conquer the
world.
Is it possible to throw the race back
to zone blood?" To speak broadly
'this is a domestic question" injects
the neighbor at my elbow; he insists
we must bar the Jap because of his
low grade of morals, his pagan wor-
ship and his unwillingness, as in
to learn the English Ian
guage, his secretive alien motives,
which bode no good as we believe to
our futur peace.
Is it only academic to say that we
are our brothers keeper? that the
future of America is imperiled unless
we stand for, once and all, upon the
point that it is not expedient for US
