ASIATIC IMMIGRATION.
Senator Root is right in declar
ing that (lit* time has come when
the United Slates should take a
firm stand ami settle the problem
of Asiatic immigration for all
time. Temporizing will result in j
more disputes later. There prob- i
ably never will be a time when the j
question can be disposed of with
less friction and less inconven- j
i nee than at present. If it is the
policy of this country to restrict
Asiatic immigration, we should be
fair and above board about it and
remov.e the chance of future mis
understandings. It is unfortun
ate that there should be such a
problem, bid shutting our eyes to
.it and pretending there is none
such will do no good.
The objection to Asiatic ininii-!
gration, to Japanese linmiigra'- |
lion, is no new thing. II has been j
officially recognized on both sides j
of thr Pacific. The Japanese gov- |
eminent undertook in 1907 to re- •
strict immigration t• > Ibis conn-j
try so as In prevenl any increase j
in the number of ils citizens in !

THE PROPHET IN HIS OWN

The resignui ion nl' A. \\ . Slur
roll as emisulling unginuui' uf Ihu
* Parilie Cold Storage company. of
Tacoma, hrings lo lighl an ini cr
esting and rallicr luinioroiis fad.
Mr. Slcrrrll. one of llic forrumsl
cold slorage cxpcrls In I In* conn
dry and Idle designer of some of
Idle I urge's I plants mi ! lie Pacific
coasl. lias lel'l Tacoma for Hus
ton, where he will superintend lln'
erection of a $3,000,000 lish cold
storage plant for Ihe Hoston Fish
(Market Corporation. For months
past the rily of Tacoma has been
securing I lie eoiinlry for an ex
pert lo design and superintend
Ihe erection of its new municipal
cold slorage |danl, Ihe citizens
being unaware that (lie city al
ready had as a resident a recog
nized aulhmily. .Meanwhile Hus
ton has reached out across (he
continent and taken from the city
of Taemna Ihe man who will build
her new cold storage plant, one of
the largest in the country.
No matter what is said, the word
“impossible” has no place in the
English tongue. Think of that
Chicago man who has been lead
ing a double life seven years on
$12 a week. He had in one part
of the city a wife and three chil
dren, and in another a wife and
four children.
After 00 days of labor the first
Alaska legislature adjourned on
May 1st. Many have been anxious
lo criticise, and perhaps in some
respects the work done--or loft
undone— was subject to criti
cism. Human nature is weak, and
even Alaskans are no! without
fault. However, we can say that
the mistakes made are our own,
made by oyr own representatives,
and they are not greater or any
harder to bear than the countless
other mistakes that, have marked
the conduct of Alaskan affair;.
Again, there are those who ex
pected that this little band of
men, hurriedly selected and hur
ried from their distant homes to
lake pari in the tirst step for
home rule, would be1 able in (50
days to revolutionize Alaskan af
fairs and establish all things
needed for her comfort. A thing
impossible*. After two years will
roll around and another legisla
ture* will be in session at Juneau,
having for their ln*lp the* foun
dation laid by this first body and
for their guidance the mistakes
made*. During Ihe intervening
time* congress may take note* of
Ihe elignilied acts of our tirst lew
making body and extern! to us
still greater privileges and pow
ers. All the* lime we are* conscious !
that we are coming into our own
rights as citizens eif ihe* t'niteel
Stale's. This alone gives to
Alaskans a justification for the
proud boast that they are no
longer classed with serfs and de
penelenls, but are now members
ami a part of the power that rules
among the peoples of Ihe world.

H« Faring, Though '.egless.

despite his infirmity, gets about
almost as well as those who hav ■

Graft, who is 25 years old,
might pass in good looks, man
