To whom has this money gone? To a little coterie of sugar planters. some of whom are foreigners. and the others American citizens who are exploiting the islands. and to the Japanese and Chinese. who constitute the bulk of the population.. Millions of dollars. the product of American skill and labor. are annually -drained from the wealth of this country to maintain a few individuals in their everincreasing riches and to support this Asiatic labor. Instead of establishing an American colony. we have established a colony of Asiatics. Instead of opening up the wonderfully productive fields of those islands for the American citizen to build American homes. we have actually opened them for the Orientals. Instead of planting a colony where the spirit of American institutions will live and breathe and grow strong as the years roll by. we have been building up a colony of Orientals. who are opposed to every form and feature of our system of government. and who add nothing and can add nothing to the support or perpetuation of our republican institutions.
