THE CHLNAMAh'S LAMENT j
FROM QUARANTINE ISLE.
Give par, Oh, ye Heavens,
To my cry from this desolate Isle.
On the shore of the mainland
Stands my wife and babies thre
They call to me in their-hunger,
But I am helpless to aid.
short year ago my home was at Ewa. t
In the midst of my small rice plant.
My mother called me from far Cathay,
To return to her for a last embrace.
To which end I a Return Perm:: ob
tained
From the country in which my home
Has so kng been maintained.
And to whocie coffers in annual tax
I have so freely contributed.
Taxes on land bv me reclaimed from
Innocuous disu etude.
Lo; on my return to the land of my j
adoption,
A stranger stands at tlie gate
And to me denies admission.
I am told that since my departure
An event called "Annexation" has oc
curred,
And that from landing I am prohibited.
In vain I show my Permit to Return,
I am of the "laboring" class they say.
In vain I plead my pecuniary distress.;
In vain I show tho pleading hands
t
Of wife and children three,
Who stand on the strand of that beau
tiful land
And wave their -n-ands to me.
Oh, God. can this be law?
Is this the teachings of that Christ-
Who died that all jnay live?
Sy child each n:'ght brought home
From a Christian school to con
And learn, his little leissons.
Amongst these werd -many noble and
worthy.
Slowly to me it was beginning to dawn
That my peoplo were still in darkness.
Here was the light I .had yearned for.
Of these I recall a lesfcn to which was
given
A. noble name, "The Golden Rule."
"Do -unto others as yo would
That they do unto you."
Of the depth of the meaning of this
I long studied, and to me it appeared
That if all men followed this mandate
Of armies there would be no need,
Prison doors would all fly open.
Prosperity would sliine in every home.
Of other lessons; he brought many,
"Love one another," "Love your ene
mies," "Do good to them that hate you."
To him who restrained me of liberty
I told these lesson.
Quickly he answered, "that is a theory,
This is a condition; you to the laboring
Class belong and to be admitted you
cannot."
"The laborer is worthy of his hire."
Labor is honorable. "If ye will not
work
Neither shall ye eat."
Many such lessons to him I quoted.
His only reply, "It is the LAW."
So I must fain hie mo hence
To my own land where I am now a
stranger.
I must sell in haete by a proxy
Tho little I have, acquired.
Abandon the fruits of my hard toil,
Together with my :hopes of educating
My little ones in a land to which
By invitation I had come.
This is THE LAV, that great cloud
Which stands between me and my
hopes.
How can such things be?
My ree-ling brain saya it cannot be.
It could never have been the intent
Of the wise who make the laws
Of that great and noble land
To crusli ono so impotent as I.

HER OWN BUILDER.
Japan Proposes to Be Independent of
Other Nations.
Ever progressive Japan is now
considering a scheme for making the
armament of her fleet no longer de
pendent on foreign dockyards and ar
senals as it is now. The new propo
sition is that of inviting a foreign
firm, preferably from the United
States, to locate in Japan and give a
big subsidy. Thus Japan would de
rive the hen en t of capital and experi
ence and at the same time make her
no longer wholly dpendent on foreign
ers.
The Jiji, a prominent vernacular pa
per, says:
"In tho haste, for recovering and im
proving our naval resources after the
late war, our Government liad barely
time to devise any permanent design
for the building at home of all war
ships that the needs of our navy rend
ered moro and more urgent. There
fore all orders were given to foreign
firms. It is not yet too late to offer
some firm a percentage subsidy on big
capital to operate works for building
naval and merchant vessels. This sub
sidy need not bo continued after the
profits reached five per cent. This
question should receive more prompt
attention than tho Government own
ership of railroads."
