THE FUTURE OF HAWAII.
It was the Ilulletln that suggested
that the visit of Commlsslouer Sargent
to Honolulu, made ut the special re
quest of the President luoled more
than netlne as a mere witness tu the
landing of the Portuguisu Immigrants,
(i nil this Is now (onllrmed Ii) (locrnor
Carter and li the Commissioner (Jen
er.il ( Immigration himself. That the
examination Just held here was regard
ed as Important, and t lint the Com
missioner intends to lake b.iik with
til lit In Washington a verbatim leport
of the prot Miliums, is apparent from
the presenie of u stenographer More
over as he was si lit lure by the Pres
ident this in i) be regarded us prima
faelc evidence that the tpewrittcu
sheets will leaeh the hands of Mr
Itixjoevelt
We doubt ver) much whether Mr.
Sargent was surprUed ut nnylhlug he
heard, bemuse a surprised expression
Is not unknown to him Moreover this
is not the Commissioner's first visit to
Hawaii, mid conditions have not
thaiiKi'd much since he was last In Ho
iitoulii llesldcs this. Secretary Atkin
son has mule several trips to Wash
ington and. as Superintendent of Im
migration under the Hawaiian law. has
nlwnjs kept lu more or less direct
touch with the 1'cderal ulllclal. Mr
Sargent has not taken the public Into
his coulldence on the subject of Japan
iw Immigration and. If he has luvesll
gated this feature of our Americaniza
tion of Hawaii, he has probabl) hail
some more surprises coming to him.
Sooner or later, however, we shall
le.irn nil about his visit, tho why, Hi"
wherefore, nnd who was lit the back
of It If the Commissioner's report he
not inaile public, either lu part or In
full, then suhsequint changes In thu
local Immigration policy will Indicate,
nt leant, that his suggestions urn be
ing adopted Hut It will bo easy la
secure tho publication or the Investiga
tion tluougli any member of Congiers
who may be Inclined to usk for It And
ns It must bear so directly upon the
futuie citizenship of this Tcrrltor),
there Is not tho least doubt that it will
be forthcoming, most probably from
the President himself who has again

"Is that If these people are treated
tightl) here, in ten eura they will bu
one of the most valuable assets of lln
wall. They are the best lot of Immi
grants 1 have ever seen. They nro
healthy, Intelligent, industrious and
peaceable. The) are Just thu kimi uf
people that this Territory needs. They
are the kind that will make good
American citizens
"I know what I am talking about,
tor vve have lots of Portuguese hack In
Now Kugland, and they innku thu best
kind of citizens. They nro Industrious
and attend to their own business.
Coffin-Maker for Cook
"It is true that they were feeling
pretty soro when tin) got here, and 1
don't blainei them, It )ou have to live
on such food as they did during llielr
voage oti would bo sure, too. If
they had been Americans they would
have kicked a good deal harder.
"I don't mean tu say that theru wcro
not provisions enough aboard thu ship
or that they were not of good quality.
It wob the way they were cooked. I
went aboard the steamer when she ar
rived, ami I never saw such a nasty,
unpalatable mess as the stuff those.
poor Immigrants had to eat. It Is
enough to make an) body III tempered
lo have to eat burnt bread and stew
that is mostly water and half cooked,
ut that.
"Dill olio uf the provisions of thu
contract was that tbe iook on hoard
thu ship should be Portuguese. Cap
tain Shotjon ohjictid and wanted to
get his own cooks but was not allow
ed to The cooks they did get didn't
know anything ut all about cooking.
One of them was a colli n maker, and 1
guess he started to work ut his tiudu
as soon as he m'I aboard.
Stackable Should Have Stayed
With Immigrants
"Mr. Stuikuhle should have staved
with the liumlgrantH lie collected, to
see that the') got good treatment, and
lo take care of them. That Is the rea
son I want this whole matter made
public so thai In the future, If an
other shipload oi Immigrants should
bo brought here, there will be no such
error. I want lo bu sure that some
one will slay with tho immigrants un
til they are landed here, to take eare
of them.
Frank P. Sargent Costa
Mr. Sargent sa that lie doesn't
think It will be necessary to bring
many more shiploads of Immigrants tu
Hawaii, if those (hat have already been
brought go on Increasing nt the rate
they have since they landed,
"Look ut that little chap over there,"
said the Commissioner, pointing to a
wee siuullcr In tho arms of a woman
on the Innul of the Immigration sta
tion. "He was born In thu sand out
hack of the dining room the other
night. I think he's about the most
forehanded of thu whole lot, for he has
a bank account. They named him aft
er me, you know, Frank P. Sargent
Costa.
Future of Hawaii
"I am of thu opinion," continued the
Commissioner, "that the Territory lias
done u mighty good thing for Itself lu
getting these people to come here. It
means much for thu future of thu 1st.
amis."
"Ilut what is our Idea as to the fu
lure of the islands?" Interrupted the
reporter.
"The future of llnwall, In my opin
ion," replied Suigeut, "lies lu getting
llenty of Just such people as these to
(i)ino here uud make their homes here,
people who come to stay and to be
come good American citizens, not
merely laborers. You need pcoplu who
will own their own homes and their
ow'u laud niul who will grow their own
crops; pioplc who will assimilate with
other nationalities,"
"That excludes the Japanese, then,
doesn't It, Mr Sargent?" asked his In
Rnogator "As a public ollVclal, I don't think I
might to say anything about the Jap
anese," replied the Commissioner. "If
1 were a private Individual, I might
have something to say on that lln",
but ns It Is I ean't speak. Hut I will
say this that I am an American und

Matter of Stowaways Explained
Mr Surgent went Into detail In the
matter of the stuwuwa)s. There wasi
only one stowaway on the Suverle, if
cording to the Commisslonei, and he,
was deported Mr. Sargent makes th
following explanation regarding thu I
others: I
When the Immigrants came on board .
at the first port they came with a rush, '
nbout a thousand of them, and with'
them came a number who had not been !
regularly booked, although there wnsl
no reason why they should not go If
they wished. There were also a niim-1
her who came aboard at night, some
of them coming up the chains. Stark-1
able-, it seems, did not know about all
of these, hut he told the Captain to I
put them all on the manifest after the'
ship had left port. Those who hud
come abourd in the rush and those
who hud sneaked on nt night all came
up when the Captain called for the
Immigrants not manifested to appear
before him He knew nothing. Bar
gent sayK, of uuy of them having act
ually stowed away lu the boats ami
other hiding places, and so manifested
them all, nil but one lad who wus not
very bright uud who confessed that he
had stowed away. He was the one
who was deported on the Suverle when
she left Honolulu. That accounts fur
Captain Shotton's point-blank state
ment that there were no stowawa)s on
board, that every one of them wus on
tho manifest. .
Tomorrow Commissioner Sargent Is
going to visit some of the plantations
on this Island, to see how the Imtnl-I
grants nt work there are getting nlong
and how they aie being treated.
Thu Commissioner says that ho is
very much pleased with Hawaii, and
If he could do so. and thought that he
could manage to make u living, he
would like to come down here to live
permanently. However, he sas that!
he sees no prospect now of his ever re
turning to Honolulu.
