of Improvements he sajs:
"About August or September this

crude oil to be used ns fuel In out

great Improvement and result In a very
considerable saving on a ) car's rua
We purpose this summer to run our
ditch out on the true grade over our
Kallua lands, and also to build In n
reservoir there This will enable us
at an expense of si) $3 000. to cultivate
Immediately over 200 acres of virgin
soil and nt tho same tlmo form a per

BOTH HAD ROUGH TRIP
FROM SAN FRANCISCO
Took Nearly Eight Days to Make
Run Alameda Baffled By
Heavy Seas On
the Way.
Both the overdue steamers from
San Francisco, the Alameda and the
Doric, arrived In port Sunday morning.
They had met cxcecdlngl) rough
weather and made long passages, tho
Alameda's tlmo being 7 davu and 18
hours, whllo that of the Doric was 7
das, 19 hours and 22 minutes
Tho Alameda struck rough weather!
nlmost Immediately after leaving San
rrnnclsto nnd had to battle with
strong southordl) and houthwcsiTly
gules and terrific scjs during nlmost
her entire passage On the morning
of tho 18th, while tho steamer was only
running nt ver slow speed a sen was
shipped from forward which stove In
n foiwnrd scuppci smashed the sk
llght window and the fiont of the pilot
house, broke the wheel and the stenm
steering gear, carried away both bin
nacles and finally flooded the saloon
and the deck cabins. Tho glass from
the pilot houso window is th'c-clghtl.s
of an Inch thick nnd as fragments ot
it were found lmbeded In the wood
work of the house, tho man who was
at tho wheel at the tlmo, was very
fortunate to escape uninjured. TIip
Doric was sighted several timet during
the trip.
Washington's blithda) was celebrat
ed on board with speeches and songs
Colonel V. S Spaulding mid Captain
Herrlman delivering the speeches
while vocnl and 1ii81iiiiiimU.i1 music

VII and Governor Dolo were respond
ed to by Col. Spaulding, Captain Her.
ilmanundl) V Dillingham.
Tho Alameda brought a cargo o.
nbout 1700 tons of freight nnd a very
heavy mall It Is not jet known
whether tho cargo has received nuy
damage or not.
Tor five days tho Doric had to battle
with tho same rough weather which
delayed tho Alameda's passage On
tho fourth day out a tremendous sou
reached tho crow's nest on the fore
mast, striking It with such force that
tho canvas screens were torn off nnd
the Chinese lookout wns wnshed off
Ho fell to tho dock nnd hnd a very
lucky cscnpo from being swept over
board. Tho Doric carries about 3500
tons of freight for tho Orient.
Tho Doric left this port at 4 p in.
jesterday, nbout half a dozen lav -over
passengers remained here She. had
only n few cabin passengers for tho
Orient nnd slxty-flvc Japanese and

LABOR MEN'S PETITION
SENT TO WASHINGTON
Situation Plainly Stated-Branch of
Federation of Labor Wants
Chinese and Japanese
Excluded.
I
Pollowing Is the petition which tho
lotnl branch of tho American Kedera
tlcin of Labor liaa sent to Washington
nsklng foi legislation excluding .lap
nnt'se nnd Chinese fiom the Terrlluiy
af Hawaii.
To the Senate nnd Houso of Reprc
sentntlves of tho United States of
Amerieu, Greeting:
We, Jhe undersigned citizens of the
United States, do hereby represent
I'lrst That the present nnd ruturo
prosperlt) of this nation depends In
n great measure on tho maintenance
of the present high standard of living
of Its Inhabitants.
Second That this standnid cannot
bo maintained If the 'sphere of thu
American uiechnnlc Is Invaded by thu
hordes of Asia, whosu modo of lifo
enables them to live comfortably on
u sum which to an American would bo
a mere pittance
Third Thnt at present fully 75 per
cent of all tho labor of thu Hawaiian
Islands, both skilled and unskilled, Is
being performed cntircl) by Orient
als. fourth. Thnt practically all tho
labor both skilled nnd unskilled which
has been performed on buildings nnd
giounds In this Territory for the Ted
eial Government has boon nnd Is still
being performed entirely hy Japanese
and Chinese) to the exclusion of com
petent American mechanics who, by
reason of these, conditions nro at
present forced Into almost complete
Idleness
Fifth Thnt tho population of tho
Hawaiian Territory Is 150.000, of
which tho Chlneso nnd tho Jnpnneso
number nearly 87,000, tho Americana
about 5000 and tho nntlves 37,000
Sixth That by rigidly excluding nil
Orientals from this Tenltory and
from tho United States, conditions
would soon become such that Ameil
tan citizens would bo enabled to earn
a living for themselves and families,
which they are now practical!) unablo
to do on account of the deplorable nnd
ontlrely un American conditions now
existing hero
Seventh Thnt
for the reasons
abovo set forth )our petitioners earn
estly ask that suitable legislation bo
framed, tho results of which would be
Tlrst Tho complete exclusion or
both Japaueso and Chinese or theli
descendants from American ferritin y
Second The requirement that all
laboi of every description whatsoever
which Is performed for tho Federal
Gov eminent shall bo done by, and only
be, citizens of tho United States
And your petitioners will ever pray.
