Oregon HEATHEN HINDU. A communication appears in an other column on the editorial which appeared In tho Times last Tuesday entitled "The (Heathen Hindu." Tho Writer seems to think that It is nec essary to call attention again to cert ain arguments which arc kept in stock to use when occasion requires against tho influx of Asiatics to take the place of American common labor. No question that the writer is cor rect In many of his expressed views and no question that a wise policy would, under all circumstances, pre vent the mild and submissive Hindu from incurring tho displeasure of or tlolng Injury to the man who, for some reason, has a strenuous strug gle for existence in this land of fi nancial jugglers and providential plenty. The writer of the communi cation has missed his point. The question of humanity is ono of sym pathy and Its answer is one of uni versal love. It was better, a thous and times, for the Hindu to go else where to earn his living, although tinuscd and unoccupied wealth lies all around us. It is not at all likely that Americans will ever advocate "the reception of Hindoos as laborers "on American soil. But how should the American prevent It? Shall ho ose his temper and become a mur derer? Shall he resort to' bruto orce? Shall ho expel the Hindu "with threats of violence? When the American laborer turps brute, it is "Jiurd to see where he Is to bo hon ored any more than any other brute. "He should organlzo and firmly, and With tho dignity which becomes an American laborer Insist that the "hlgli economic standard of American 3aboT be not reduced by the intro duction of Hindu laborers or a Hin Su system. But while we recognize the policy of keeping the Hindu out of America, "we must still claim tho right to feel liurnan sympathy for him and his also. Tho condition of India is not such as to produce Joy even In tho acnlnds of those who may not wish to have America continue its functions sis "an asylum for the oppressed of all nations." A few tears shed with toeart felt emotion over millions of India's famine victims and over the suffering of 250,000,000 subjects of a British omporVir, will not lessen tho pride felt In tho stability of strength of tho American laborer. Sympathy extended to men who are struggling to get happiness somewhere In this life, but whoso native land is an nually drnined of its substance, to "maintain tho splendor and warlike spirit of tho most christian nation, will not necessarily mean that Ameri ca shall displace its sturdy men of Tnusclo by opening its arms to all t;ho wrecks of English oppression. It is a long tlistanco from tho Ameri can laborer's economic condition to tho American laborer's economic sal vation. Ho has enough to ovcrcomo In order to reach his goal. Ho has -a thousand temptations to brutalize his manhood and whosoever preaches that ho, who excels in power all other laborers on earth becauso he has tho ballot, shall meet and slay the gontlo minded, well intonded ind harmless Hindu, who has been misled by deception to seek theso .shores, is a preacher of unpardon able iniquity. Tho Hindu must "work out his own economic salvation 4n India. Ho has two hundred and rty million follow sufferers. In thno they will seo that their suf fering is duo largely to tho fact that they do not know how to cooperate. The American laborer may also real 3zo that he too must cooperato and that ho can accomplish moro by Qcmrning how to uso his power Intel SOgently than by demonstrations of brute force or unreasoning passion. But let it bo said, that tho writer' of this article does not believe that tho advocates of mob violence aro at all numerous In tho ranks of honest labor. Let It also bo said that tho heart which will not sympathize with human misfortune in any form, is not to bo trusted in any profession of sympathy for tho cause of labor In India or America. RETURNING PROSPERITY. The Secretary of tho Treasury pro poses to issue ?50,000,000 in Panama canal bonds and $100,000,000 in treasury certificates, with a view of tempting the people who havo hoard ed their gold to turn their gold into the government for tho securities mentioned. No doubt tho move will be successful. It is plain and grati fying that whatever doubt Ameri cans may have as to tho stability of commercial nature, they have abso luto confidence in their government. They believe that whatever tho na tional government stands back of Is good. They have the same confi dence also In state governments and their stability. There Is not today ono state, north, east, south or west, whose credit is not perfect. No state bond issued since the war by compe tent authority and within the powers of that state, is discredited. It may be expected that tho govern ment issue of valuable securities will overtake tho vanishing gold aad place it at tho disposal of the government. It may also be expected that funds will be available to move the crops and that when the crops aro sold, millions will return to tho wast and money will again be easy. But tho indications are that the situation will change rapidly. The New York stock market is just now the busiest place in America. Stocks went down so low that the most penurious and cautious Investor is secure in buy ing. There is really no lack of con fidence, only a fear that there aro conspirators who design to play somo trick. England knows that America has all the necessaries of life in abundance which Europe wants and everybody knows that money must come to the producing districts to pay for such necessaries. It does not seem possible that the dull times can continue much longer or that tho financial stress can endure. Tho signs of returning prosperity aro all good. - y BANDON NOTES, ...-i-.
