Capitalists said to us, 'You are too poor.' Merchants said, 'You are too few in number' PoTTticians said, 'Yon are not citizens,' and government officials said, 'We nre not elected by you ' To them nc are undis tinguishable from monkeys and the personal status ot our country men was a matter of indifference, which could not but result in disa pointmnit of those who truly and sincerely hoped to build up an Americanized Japanese community in conformity with every American idea, that may amalgamate in coutse of lime with the common wealth of America. REFLECTION" BRINGS NEW LIGHT j "Reflection brought a new light. The source of agitation against Japanese is citizen labor. In the fold of capitalists Japanese, b y their cheap labor and sheer force of number, constitute a mighty foe to citizen labor, while assimilation and cooperation with them will make Japanese a strong ally for that class. We shall cease to be a negligible orce; tor, me attainment of their hopes will largely depend on the attitude of Japanese. We have been unconsciously their enemies, out now see our mistakes and propose to be their close friends. "Ninety-nine per cent of the resident Japanese in the Territory are wage earners an.i it is a gross mistake to seek recognition and try to attain equality in the society of wealthy planters, high and digni fied officials and rich merchants; it is easier, quicker r.nd more a dapted to seel: a place among their own classes. By doing so, Japanese will assimilate with the American standard of wage-earners and with their ideals a n d customs, and through these channels they will attain, though indirectly, certain political influence to protect their own rights and to !,ain recognition in the body politic. Simultaneous ly, the main source of antagonism against Japanese will disappear R and the international friction! which has been unnecessarily and j rather wantonly instigated by the; laboring class, might be smoothed to a certain extent. This is my conviction, and :t is for the welfare ; of American people as well as Jap-: anese, and to the advantage of thi-'jS two nations on the Pacific. ; pj AVIATION INCIDENT.
