The Chinese have been leaving Hawaii. and none of them have been coming in. since annexation. The Japanese have been coming in by the shipload. and it is the Japanese who have worked into other callings there to a great extent. There are some Chinese there who are citizens who can not be deported. They were first citizens of the kingdom. then of the provisional government and the republic. and of course became citizens at the time of annexation. There is a scarcity of Chinese labor for agricultural purposes in the islands. and the Japanese have raised the price. as I said a while ago. to more than the traffic will bear in view of the very low price of sugar.
