' ' 'nr-l " n -V m ani'-)iii-xtfTii..aj-nL A; OOWABDLY , EXCUSE. r T IS A poor. - evasive nlea tbat Representative Tawney, chair man of the house committee on , appropriations, ( makes when he attempts to lay the Bins ot the last session of congress, on . the Demo- cratlq minority. . It Is like a big boy laying a fault that was principally hia on his much smallei' brother, and trying to shift the punishment upon him. ' ' Mr; Tawney'. party had a large majority In both houses. It could h are passed or prevented the pas sage of whatever measures It chose Congress has been in session ; six months; there, has been plenty of time, r For whatever that was done that should not have been done, and for whatever was not! done r that should have been, done, the Repub lican party. Insofar as parties are to be i 'taken Into the reckoning, is wholly responsible, ; the- Democratic party not at all. ,Yet Mr., Tawney "arraigns' the Democratic minority, This is childish; it is even contempt i Mr- Tawney 's" Complaint Is about too largo appropriations, for which - he says the Democrats are to blame. Very likely a great of. money has been squandered; there has been no effort at retrenchment or, economy where it might have been practised, but this Is not what the people are uuxiiyituiuufi avuuw -,v ,iuc aic uvt greatly concerned over the expend iture of a hundred millions, more or les. But what they are aroused and Indignant about Is that congress neglected - and refused to pass any . of the laws especially demanded by i no people, ana repeaieaiy urgea ny President Roosevelt. Mr. Tawney cannot divert the public mind from these matters. There are more than a dozen long black marks against this congress on account of these re jected measures, and th$ people are not going to forget them next fall. ( ;Mr.' Tawney , censures the 1 Demo crats for filibustering, but he does not tell why they filibustered. It was to try to force the majority to pass a few of these needed and de manded measures. Mr. Williams more than once announced that if the majority would consent to take up and consider four or five of the "president's policy" measures the fil ibustering would cease. But to this Cannon and Ills lieutenants would s or consent.- What the people of the country should try to do is not so much to elect Democratic instead of Repub lican congressmen as to fciect a lot of men. Republicans especially, of a different kind, men who would dare to do and insist on doing what the people want done. And the first thing tho next house ought to do, if it has a Republican majority, is to , elect some other speaker than Cannon, some broad-minded, prog ressive, patriotic man. Cannon ia doing the country many more mil lions worth of .damage every year than congress squanders. No matter about their party, Jthey are pledged to obey the people; that Is enough,. " Not one of them, any where, should be allowed to suffer defeat. , . la this county and this and Clack amas Jointly there is a contest be tween only three legislative -candi dates on this. question, These are; For Statement No. 1.

The ' latter three are worthy men enough, but the people can afford to take no chances on this issue, v and should defeat them and elect Jthe Statement No. 1 men Farnhdm, Campbell and Wilson. , ., "This Is a people's fight; it is up to them to win It.

Ijos Angeles May 27.--Wherever Japanese subjects live under the American flag; from. Honolulu eastward to penyer,' from Pufcet sound southward to Io Angeles, .there ts conflict between occidental and oriental civilisations. The Japanese point of view in looking upon this oonteat is entirely different from that of the white man. The white man is faithful to believe that his form of civilisation la superior In every way to that of the orient, and he brooks no interference with the working nut of his creed. The Japanese, as represent ing the orient, believes as firmly in the moral superiority of his - form of lhiREAUl I t: Th.ose Liberties of Ours.

Jananese' business men In Wnnnl 11 In deny that their 1 wholesale merchants are cutting into the trade of Ameri can firms. There are about a dosen large wholesale concerns in Honolulu conducted by Japanese, but it is de clared in their behalf that thev handle only - Japanese wares and appeal only 10 ineir own people lor business. At the same time. It is a r rued that the Japanese in the islands use more Amer ican goods that Japanese wares, fully 75 per cent of their expenditures go ing for American cotton goods, flour, hats,, shoes and household furniture. - On the Pactflci coast this nercentaore is still higher, according to the Jan. anese leaders. This contention is borne out by the statistics in California and is apparently true ln other states. The Japanese men always abandon their native costume when they get east of Hawaii,- and the younger onea affect tne most expensive domino- they can afford, always leaning to the "college" variety of extreme style. Of course Th Japanese in America receives much higher wages than in Japan, and one of the first things his. opulence leads him to do Is to form ' the habit of eating- bread. These arguments that the Japanese in America are consum ers of American products, are always advanced by the Japanese. It reveals tne curious reasoning 01 ine oriental wages. Th a is well-nigh unanswerable, without bloodshed and nobody went ; inta certainly true that the Paciflo hysterics over his "preciously guarded coa cities which so harshly criticise personal rights. guaruoa the Japanese continue to give him a Job.
