The New Hawaii
Within the next decade, or a lit
tle more, Unce Sam is going to find
a curious situation confronting him
in the Hawaiian Inslands unless
conditions are greatly changed by
an influx of whites. He is going to
wake up to the fact that a majority
of the voting citizens of one of his
territories are Orientals.
This is not true as yet. In fact
the proportion of Japanese, Chinese
and Koreans who hold the right o'
franchise is comparatively small.
But by far the greater part of the
total population is composed ol
Orientals. There are about 70,000
Japanese, 30,000 Chinese and pos
sibly 5,000 or 6,000 Koreans in the
Territory, with only about to,000
white people and 45,000 Hawaiian*
The adult Orientals, of course with
the exception of the few who were
naturalized under the kingdom, are
not American citizens*
But their
children born on American soil may,
if they so elect, become American
citizens. As a consequence there is
a probability that when those born
in the islands attain their majo ity
the Orientals will be able to control
the situation. —Edward P. Irwin in
November Pacific Monthly.
The Friendship of Nation»
Peace is one of the universal hopes
of the human heart, it is in every
philosophy in all poetry and in
every religion. The heaven of the
American savage, or of the fierce
Viking, or of the poetic Greek, or
the contemplative Buddist,—every
heaven ever born out of the long
ings of man’s heart is an abode of
peace. He that thinks man has n it
struggled very far on the road
toward his ideal, knows very little
of the history of man
Whether
one turn to China, or Japan, or to
Europe, one can within the period
of history begin with the time when
every stranger was an enemy.
Nations are only aggregations of
individuals, and what is essentially
good fot the individual is good for
the nation, and what is essentially
bad for the average individual is
bad for the nation, and as fighting
and waste of property and debt are
admittedly bad for the individual,
they must also be bad for the na
tions and the only question is one
of time when the nations will find a
cheaper and more effective and more
sensible method of settling their
disputes than by war.
In fact, at
the end of every war, the disputes
are finally settled by a conference,
anyhow.—Charles Erskine Scott
Wood in the November Pacific
Monthly.
