Many of them are wholesale dealers and im- porters. Japanese merchants are very large- ly importing dry goods and clothing of Jap- anese Inanufacture; also canned goods put up in Japan. With these they undersell American and European importations. Against this competition the thirteenth ar- tele of the platform demands protection, declaring that “our merchants are being rapidly superseded by an element having nothing in common with the principles ly- ing at the foundation of our institutions.” Little Hawaii is in a transition state as to its population. Is its future population to be Anglo-American, or is it to become mainly Asiatic? Our institutions are Amer- ican. Our leaders of thought and action are the same. We have made our government American. Yet under the pressing demand for cheap labor on the plantations many thousands of ignorant Asiatic peasants are: annually imported. Others follow at their own cost. Hong Kong and Yokohama cre within twelve days’ steaming. Steerage Passage is only- $25. Hawaii is in much danger of becoming overwhelmed by the surplus population of these Asiatic empires. ‘These people can labor more hours and sub- sist on less cost than people of European origin can possibly do. If unobstructed, if we have no protection from their numbers, they can crowd the white man cut of the country. Christian civilization has been planted here, and has made magnificent growth. Every American who comes to Honolulu feels himself as if still on Amer- ican soil. Is this to give place to the squal- id semi-civilization of Asia? Is all Honolulu to become gradually absorbed and overrun by the noisomeness of Chinatown west of Nunann street? Every aspiration of patri- otism among Americans in Hawaii cries out against it. These anti-Aslatic planks in our platform appeal in the strongest-manner to the white civilization of this country. They will re- ceive the most earnest public support from all classes of whites, except, perhaps, a few of the planters, whose sentiment of ac- quisitiveness may be in excess of their pub- le spirit and patriotism. fear of Asiatic occupation forms one of the strong- est elements in our anxiety to hasten our union to the United States. Annexation will settle the question, and finally deter- mine our destiny as belonging to Anglo- American civilization, and not to Asiatic barbarism. The Sentiment of Those Elected to THE CHINESE QUESTION PERPLEXING The Cable Concession That is Asked for by England. CONSENT OF THIS COUNTRY Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. HONOLULU, October 18, 1894. The first nominating convention under the republic on this island assembled in this city on the 18th instant, to nominate tickets for six senators and six representatives for the coming legislature, to be elected on the 29th. Thirty delegates were present from eight districts. The nominees are secure of election, as few voters of any opposing party registered, and are unlikely to nomi- nate candidates. The senators now to be elected are to hold their seats for six years, provided a constitutional change is not previously cre- ated by annexation to the United States. ‘They will control the question of annexa- tion, so far as the action of this government is concerned. The six nominees from Oahu are all well known and trusted men, three of them members of the present advisory council. The nine senators nominated from the other islands are likewise of the most trusted of their men. On the other islands the planting interest ‘was much more fully represented. It is well understood, however, that the leading nomi- nees are thoroughly in favor of annexation, a question upon which some of the planters are believed to be shaky. The Oahu con- vention and its nominees are most thorough- ly committed to annexation, as may be seen from the following planks in the platform which was adopted: “We declare unequivocally that the fore- most mission of the American union party shall continue to be unreserved effort to secure the political union of Hawaii with the United States of America. “We cordially commend the efficient, courageous and honorable conduct of public affairs by the officers of the provisional gov- ernment and republic of Hawail. “We are,opposed to the employment of Asiastics upon any publie work. “We pledge all the power and influence this party may possess to aggressive en- deavor to bring about at once the restriction of Asiatic immigration. In this connection we again point to the menace of Asiatic encroachment, and demand legislative pro- tection from these people for Hawaiian, American European mechanics and tradesmen. “We urge the enactment at once of a law that will cause the Asiatics brought to these islands for plantation labor to con- tinue in that service, or return to their homes. “We demand such revision of the tariff as will prohibit competition with American products and manufactures; protection to which America 1s justly entitled by virtue, of the treaty of reciprocity, and which we deem necessary to insure the existence of our merchants, who are being rapidly super- seded by an element having nothing in ecmmon with the principles lying at the foundation of our institutions. “We urge the government to secure for the islands cable communication; that no exclusive franchise be granted, and that no agreement or contract be made which does not meet with the unqualified approval of the United States. “We ask that there be continued effort in the direction of extending and improving the system of free schools.” Independent Government Party. It will be noted that the first article of the platform declares annexation to be “the foremost mission of the American union party,” which is the party represented by the government. This was especially em- phasized, because indications have appeared among a few of the supporters of the re- public of a preference for continued inde- pendence. It has long been an ideal of patriotic whites here to maintain an inde- pendent state of high character out here in the Pacific, trusting to Divine Providence and the good will of the great powers for our political security. There are still some persons who cling, more or less, to that ideal, and think that it may have been fortunate that Mr. Cleveland repelled our overtures for annexation. There are also some sugar planters otherwise inclined to- ward annexation, who see little hope for being able to secure the labor necessary to work their plantations after United States law interdicts further importation of Asiatic laborers, as it will do when annexa- tion has been consummated. It is, of course, a very formidable danger to a mil- lion-dollar plantation to have its labor sup- ply cut off and its 10 or 15 per eent dijvi- dends come to an end. There ts, however, little doubt that an ad- equate supply of laborers can be procured from Portuguese sources. That class of our population has proved a very indus- trious and thrifty one, and without any dis- orderly or anarchical tendencies. Method: of co-operative labor are already quite suc- ions, and are likely tors, who would not work in the gang system of labor prevail- ing in the cune fields. There can be no doubt that American farmers immigrating here could arrange with the planters to cultivate cane on shares, upon terms mu- tually advantageous. The climate is ex- ceptionally mild. White men can labor in the field without difficulty through the whole day. We know nothing of your se- vere summer heats. Importance of Annexation. To the minds of the great bulk of our more intelligent people the only reliable security of government here and guaranty of its stability must be obtained by politi- cal union with either Great Britain or the United States. To the latter power alone do we incline. Our social and civil insti- tutions are American and the United States is our nearest neighbor. To it we naturally gravitate. It is not a secure and reliable prospect for us to continue our present little more than nominal independence. Everything is just now very quiet and seems likely to continue so. Yet there are corrupt and dangerous elements in our pop- ulation. We can never feel certain that some evil combination may not arise and endeavor to overturn the republic. We have in common prudence to maintain an armed force, costing more than we can well af- ford. Besides this, our citizens are com- pelled to maintain’ theirevolunteer military companies. We do not care always to be sleeping thus upon our guns. Annexation looks to us like a haven of rest and secu- rity, to gain which we would gladly sacri- fice many advantages. There is no doubt that our coming senate will be practically a unit upon this question. The fifth, eleventh and twelfth sections of the platform voice the prevailing sentiment of opposition to Asiatic immigratio: 1d to the increasing occupation of the various kinds of employment by Asiatics. The term comprises both Chinese and Japanese. There are over 10,000 of the former class and nearly 20,000 of the latter. Most of these people have been imported here as contract laborers for plantations. As soon as their three-year contracts expire a ma- jority of these laborers, instead of return- ing to their Asiatic homes, remain In Ha- wall and engage in whatever occupations they can crowd into. They are extreme! tnduaeioun and penurious in habit. T! are very apt at mechanical handicrafts. They are gifted peddling and trade. Living at a minimum of cost, as no whi! man can live, they cut far below the white man's wages. Excelling the native Ha- walian in skill in all departments, and in- defatigable in industry, they have driven the indolent and thriftless Hawaiian out of most of the employments on which he has depended. On this isiand of Oahu all the fisheries, which are very lucrative, have left Hawaiian and passed into Chinese hands, The culture of tara, and the man- ufacture of pol from it, has largely gone the same road. Poi, the paste made from pounded tara roots, is the “staff of life” to natives. Now they buy most of it from the Chinese. The Asiatic Question. The whites are equally crowded out of their occupations. Chinese and Japanese are active as carpenters, cabinet makers, England ai the Cable Projects. The fourteenth plank of the platform, on cable communication, has grown out of cer- tain developments of the last ten days. It is entirely in accord with the settled policy of this government. They are determined to grant “no exclusive franchise,” and to make “no contract which does not meet as the unqualified approval of the United tates.” We have been favored with a visit from the Hon. Sanford Fieming, as commis- stoner from the Canadian government, and Mr. Mercer, representing the British’ gov- ernment. Mr. Fleming is a distinguished engineer. He’ is the originator of the si- multaneous hour system of railway time. These gentlemen have been endeavoring to secure from this republic certain conces- sions for the Canada-Australian cable. This government corsider themselves, by our treaty with the United States, absolutely debarred from making such concessions without its full approval to any other power. They are anxious to secure as early as possible cabic connection with the rest of the world. This British cable presents the immediate opportunity, and is to be made the m of. We are willing to con- tribute an annual subsidy of, say, $30,000 toward the enterprise. But for treaty ob- lgation to the United States, we would be glad to surrender to them one of our deso- late Islets lying to the westward, of which Messrs. Fleming and Mercer ask the con- cession. Neckar Island is the one hitherto had in view. It is 400 miles distant. Since they have been here their attention has been directed to Bird Island, as more fa- vorable for their purpose. This island is only 2530 miles W. N. W. from Honolulu. On the 13th the commissioners went with H, B. M. 8. Hyacinth to examine Bird Island.and take soundings around it. A cable station on either Neckar or Bird islands would require to be occupied by about’ a dozen men. They would be en- tirely dependent on ipplies from abroad, probably even for water. I have been on Bird Island. It was well known to the Hawaiians by the name of Ni-ho-a. Old stone fourdations of native huts are still visible Landing from boats is easy, ex- cept in rovgh weither. A cliff of fifteen to thirty feet has to be climbed from the rocks on the shere. The upland is very steep, and swarms with Innumerable fishing birds of all sizes. Much low vegetation grows on the rank guano soll. The only spring is close to the sea, and bitter with guano. Possibly rain water might be secured from corrugated iron roofs by carefully washing off the roof at the beginning of each shower. The commissioners seem to feel a necessity for exclusive and undisturbed oo- cupation of some locality, even if it be one somewhat difficult. Cable connection would be made with Honolulu. Consent of This Country. The Hyacinth returned from Bird Island on the 16th, after an absence of three days. A number of soundings were taken, extending three miles from shore, and prov- ing the ocean in the vicinity to be of mod- erate depth. The commissioners, with the British minister, landed and examined the ground. It was decided that the proper locality for landing the cable, if taken there, would be at a sand beach near the southwest angle of the island. At this or any other such island the water supply must be distilled from sea water. Yesterday, the 17th, the commissioners held their final interview with the cabinet. The substance of their propositions was that the Hawaiian government ould grant the “British government a permanent lease of one of the uninhabited islands to the westward, for the purpose of a cable station, either Bird Island, Neckar Island or French Frigate shoal. The last is a low islet and reef, some 600 miles from Honolulu. It will be guaranteed not to fortify, or to create a naval station. A branch cable ts to be extended to Hono- lulu. They ask this government to grant an annual subsidy of $35,000, as their con- tribution to the expense of maintenance. Five hundred thousand dollars are to be contributed annually by the various British colonies interested. rateS are guar- anteed, not over 25 cents a word to the American coast, much less for government dispatches, and press rates still lower. No exclusive franchise or concession of any sort is asked for beyond the lease of the ground. It does seem somewhat strange that England should prefer to maintain an inconvenient station upon a desolate island instead of taking a comfortable situation at this commercial center. The desire is to be “secure from possible disturbance,” whatever that means. It looks something like the Britisher’s habit of building a high wall around his home premises. The reply of the government made to the propositions of the commissioners was that they would ask the consent of the United States government to make the proposed lease. By our treaty of reciproc- ity we are absolutely bound not to lease or grant any lien whatever upon any por- tion of our territory to any other foreign power. When the United States has so consented, this government will ask the legislature for authority to make the lease, and grant a subsidy. It is the strong desire of our government and people to gain the consent of the United States to the proposed lease to Eng- land of an uninhabited island for a cable station. Such cable connection will be of the highest value to us. We had hoped that the important naval interests of the United States in the Pacific would, ere this, have led to their laying a cable to this mid-ocean point. It has not been done, and little sign appears of an¥ early prospect of it. We hope to profit by the urgent need which England feels of cable connection from Victoria to Sydney. It de- pends upon the probable friendly and lib- eral disposition of the United States to- ward Great Britain to grant this needed accommodation. It Is believed to be not improbable that some understanding may already exist between the two governments upon that subject. KAMEHAMEHA. Bodily Effect of Emotion. From the Revue Sctentifique. Many serious maladies have been attrib- uted to the action of moral influences. Sen- nert believed that fear was capable of tn- ducing erysipelas. Dr. H. Tuke laid espe- cial stress on the influence of fear in the contagion of rabies, and, in fact, there are innumerable cases on record of emotional patients who suffered all the pains and in- conveniences of numerous maladies, in- augurated solely by emotional disturbances. Depressing emotions frequently appear to play an important part in the development of tuberculosis. Puerperal fever is alfo en- couraged by depressing moral emotions. “I have often,” says M. Hervieux, “seen young women in a fair way of recovery hurried into mortal illness by reproaches or mental agitation from whatever cause.” This view finds very general support among the mem- bers of the profession. The total vote of New York state on gov- ernor, lieutenant governor and judge of the court of appeals, is as follows: For gover~ nor—Morton, 670,501; Hill, 513,720; Wheeler, 28,635.

Hampton Hoge, the republican candi- date who ran for Congress in the sixth Vir- ginia district, and was defeated by Peter K, Otey, democrat, said last night that he -would contest Otey’s seat. He claimed that 4,000 legal votes cast for him in the district were thrown out by the judges of election. Returns from twelve counties in New Mexico give Catron, republican, for Con- 6ress, about 2,800 majority. The remaining six counties to hear from may reduce this majority to 1,700. The legislature will be republican, Returns show that Sorg in the third eon and Layton in the fourth district are only democratic candidates elected to oe gress in that state. The seat of Sorg will be contested by Gen. Harris on the growmd that wholesale purchases of votes were = by Sorg at the Dayton Soldiers’ ome.

These returns are at all official, however. The situation in the Achland, Ky., dis- trict is unchanged. Owens, democrat, claims e plurality, but Judge Denny, re- publican, says he is confident of his election when the official returns are counted to- morrow. If Owens is given a certificate Denny will surely contest his seat in Congress, on the ground of the refusal to register republican yotes and on account of frauds on election GENERAL NEWS NOTES. Michael J. Kelly, the great base ball play- er, died at the Emergency Hospital in Bos- ton last evening from pneumonia.
