The Senator from Massachusetts construed properly the language "not locally inapplicable" to include a few subjects of legislation. but the general laws of the United States as to alien labor. contract labor. and immigration just as certainly extend when this bill passesnot nowover the Territory of HAwaii as they extend to any other Territory under the jurisdiction of the United States. 1 am not to rail about the act of Congress annexing this Territory. although I was not in favor of it. It was done. It has been made a.part of the United States. and I wish to aid as far as I may as a member of the Senate in providing .for that people a good goverunfient and adequate laws. and whatever my friend the Senator from Nebraska may say about it in the heat of debate.
