SAN FRANCISCO AND ITS
TROUBLE WITH THE JAPANESE
BY FREDERIC J. HASKIJT.
(Copyright 1908, by Frtderto J. Haskln.)
San Francisco. May 82. Her at th Golda Gate th auwtton at Japanese
lmmlf ration Is more1 acuta than at any other placa in the Union. To thla port
si large majority of the Japanese in the United States have com. Here the
Ainerioari Asiatic Exclusion league is conducting the movement for a law
which will as effectually debar the Japanese and Koreans from coming here as
the Chinese exclusion act keeps out the CelesUals. Hera are published the
Japanese dally newspapers which reflect and mold the opinion of the Nippon
ese In America. Here is the moat prosperous city colony of Japanese oa the
continent, and from Ban Francisco trie large rural Japanese popumuun ox -u-fornla
is financed and recruited. Desplt the prohibition of Japanese immi
gration from 'Hawaii, and despite the Tokio promises of restriction, the Jap
anese populatiott'of Ban Francisco la steaauy increasing.
4ii ik fit war between the United
States and Jipan. the agitation of the
exclusion question, and all kindred 1s
nues grew directly out of the claah be
tween the Japanese and white people in
Ban Francisco. The city authorities dl-
ma.u. ,k.i - i' l.n.n.1. nnnilfl In the
public schools should attend the sepa
rate school maintained for people of
Mongolian descent, The Japanese pu
pils refused to accede to the ruling and
appealed to their government at Tokio.
The diplomatic correspondence between
the two countries soon' became threat
ening, if not angry, and the war clouds
thickened, : while anti-Japanese demon
strations, riots and boycotts excited the
stricken city of Ban Francisco.
' STMur. to Suptar. ;.
Just what Japan said to the govern
ment at Washington Is still a profound
secret- But- events hava Justified the
rumor current at the tlme that the sit
uation was strained almost to the point
of a rupture of diplomatlo relations.
The president aent Secretary Metcalf
to Ca-lfornia with? instructlone to
threaten and appeal He did both.
When the Metcalf report was transmit
ted to congress the president sent with
it a brief , message,, which concluded
with this sentence: T authorised and
directed Secretary Metcalf to state If
there was failure to protect persons and
f roperty, then tha entire power of the
ederal government, within the limits
of the constitution, would" be usd
nmxntlv iiul v)cornulv to enforce tha
observance Of our treaty, the supreme
law of the land, which treaty guaran
teed to Japanese residents everywhere
in the Union full and perfect protec
tion for their persons and property;
and to this, end everything in my power
would be done, and all the forces of the
United States, both civil and military,
which t could lawfully employ, would
b employed."

This threat of the federal government
to use u.e civil and military forces of
the nation against the sovereign . state
Of California caused a great hue and
cry. But even many of those who criti
cised the president severely at that time
for his action now praise him for hav
ing so conducted tha affair as to avoid
war at a time when the United States
was hopelessly unprepared for the is
sue. Tha coming to Washington of the
San Francisco delegation, headed by the
notorious Mayor Schmits, the fury of
eloquence in congress and the wild talk
of the Jingoes In Japan is all a part of
the history of the time. ... ,
" ltoatloa Believed.
California and San Francisco yielded
to the entreaties of the government at
Washington and did not Insist on the
exclusion of all ' Japanese pupils from
the schools, public opinion being pla
cated by the exclusion of the men of
mature age who had been in classes
with little girls. ' These grown pupils
were the cause of the trouble and when
tha causa was removed the . situation
was relieved and the - anti-Japanese
movement dropped in intensity from
acute to sub-acute.
Then, as luck would hava It. the loyal
subjects of King Edward VII residing
in British Columbia took up sticks and
atones and proceeded therewith to be
labor certain loyal subjects of King Ed
ward's imperial ally, the mikado. This
proved very embarrassing to Japan, and
Tokio began to be much milder In the
tone of It utterances,,'
This review of the beginning of the
agitation of the Japanese question is of
momentous significance ' when consid
ered' in connection with subsequent
events. Since that time ' the : United
States has transferred the greater por
tion of its naval force from the Atlan
tic to the Pacific ocean. That there Is
any relation between these things may
be denied by official Washington, but '
then did not official Washngton deny i
that the fleet would go to the facirio
at allT This "same official Washington
denies that. the fleet will stay In the
Pacific, but - Since- the timet that
the president sent a message to con
arress Jumping on the Californians for
their altitude toward the Japanese there
has been a strong movement for a Jap
anese exclusion, law, 4 This agitation has
been kept submerged by official press
ure because of the effort being made to
bring about a peaceful settlement of
the question which would save the fare
of the Japanese under the "most fa'
vored nation"; agreement.
- - . Agreement Accepted.
The same Japan which was so threat
ening when the school , question first
arose has since consented to restrict
Immigration to America if no exclusion
bill be passed. The agreement was ac
cepted, but the Japanese; continue to
come In. The laxity of the Japanese of
ficials i In enforcing the restriction
agreement has been the subject of di
plomatic correspondence which originat
ed from , Washington. When Washing
ton writes a note to Tokio now it Is. en
tirely different in tone and spirit from
the notes that were written when the
great fleet was iln Atlantic waters, v
Now.Anobody knows, these things Mt
tf r than the Japanese in San Francisco.
Their voire is all for peace. The Japa
nese vied with the Native Sons In pre
paring to welcome Admiral Evans and
bis fleet to the frolic at the Golden Gate,
They contributed over 12,000 to the en
tertainment fund, and spent good Amer
ican gold .for red, white and blue bunt
ing to decorate their shops and homes.
The Japanese newspapers in San Fran
cisco declared that they were as glad to
see tne neet and as proud or its accom
plishments as were any other residents
of America. The Japanese consul-gen
eral published an article on the coming
or the battleships which began with
the word "Welcome." Nevertheless, In
the vast crowds which covered the hills
about the bay on that memorable April
day there was scarce a man who did
not turn to ins netgnDor to say: mat
will keep the Japanese on their own
siae or tne sea."
It is tha presence of the fleet and the
cessation of threats from Japan that
makes the difference In the situation
here. Little is said nowadays about the
Japanese in San Francisco, but there
has been no change In feeling among
tne Americans or tne city, as in every
other Pacific coast city they declare
that the Japanese must be kept out of
tha eountry, that they are more danger
ous ana muon more unaesiraoie than tne
Chinese, and that ir the Japanese gov
eminent will not restrict the Immigra
tion as promised, then i this government
must enact an exclusion law for the
protection of the American civilisation
ana institutions or tne western stales.
Opposition to Japanese. -
In many sections of the ' west the
opposition to Japanese immigration Is
based wholly upon- economlo and in
dustrial arguments. - The white laborer
cannot compete with the Japanese la
borer, because he cannot live aa cheap
ly. But here in San Francisco it is
confessed that antagonism has much to
do with the anti-Japanese feeling. The
San ! Francisco' troubles did not spring
from an economlo clash over wages, It
frrew out of a race question developed
n the school a When the Sam Fran
cisco nosition on the . school , ouestlon
was made known In the last congress
tne race question was the predominant
feature and the southern Democrats of
the house and senate, familiar with
race questions, rushed to the support of
tha Californians.
San Franciscans ' repeat and J 'ratify
what was said at that time - hv . the
then governor tn a message to the
legislature: "In common with the peo
ple of the east who have . had no ex
perience with, these unaeslrallable peo-
iie or Japan ana Jhina the president
oes not understand the racial differ
ences between the Japanese and Chinese
and the people, of Caucasian blood." It
is exactly me same argument osea oy
southerners In defending- themselves
against attacks from other, states on
their atituoe toward tne negro: "you
do not understand the difference be
tween a white man and a negroA .
It Is very fortunate that the econom
lo feature of the asitatlon acnlnst the
Japanese has been emphasized. In Japan
it is admitted that Americans may ob
leot to an influx of laborers -who -will
.destroy standard" of "wages," but every
Japanese noias mat ne is tne equal ox
any man on earth and a racial discrim
ination against . nis people is an un
pardonable; offense.. As a matter of
fact, the' race antagonism' does not en
ter into the question, and San Francisco
openly admits it. , . , ..... ..

In the meantime the 13.000. Jananese
who are living here are finding employ
ment and making- money. The majority
of them ara held to be unsatisfactory
aa servants or laborers, - but still they
have the Jobs. The leaders of Jap
anese here are trying to do alt in their
f ower to smooth over old quarrels. The
eadera of the anti-Japanese agitation
are content to let by-gones be by-gones
but the- are no less determined In their
opposition to permitting any more Jap
anese -coma In. .-'..
