THE ADMISSION OF CHINESE
LABOR.
We have threshed out this question so frequently (says the Manila Times) that it has doubtless become as weary as 'a twice- told tale' to the, general public. It is also robbed of interest by the fact that it has-- practically only one side, and that is, in favor of Chinese admission. What opposi- tion and objections have been made have. come entirely from Filipinos, and, among those, only from a few agitators who are animated by no other motive or policy than a general and persistent opposition to every contemplated innovation.
Among the many articles which have been written on this subject few have expressed more clearly or succintly the necessity of Chinese labor and the benefits, rather than drawbacks, which it will confor

One of the most important matters now affecting these islands is the question of labor. How serious and critical a problem it is cannot be overstated. If the wonderful natural resources of these islands

This is the settled conviction of practically every American in the islands, whether government official or business man.. It is not a matter of exploitation, but simply a question of lands for the work that has to be done. Commercial enterprise standa BED-paralysed to-day in the face of exisiting

Stearns' Wine
is noted for its promptness of action. It imparts tone to the organs, re-establishes ormal functions and arouses vigour and ritality. It strikes at the very root of ill- health by building up nutrition, whereby new tissues are formed to replace those diseased and destroyed. It improves the appetite, stimulates digestion and enables the system to obtain its full quota of strength and flesh from the food. It en- riches the blood and tones up the nervous ystem. These are no random statements but definite certainties.
Therefore, Stearns' Wine of Cod Liver Oil is justly denominated a powerful tonic and rebuilder. It is invaluable in all de- pressed, rundown and ill-nourished con- ditions. Most beneficial in consumption, loss of flesh and strength, general debility, Bervousness, dyspepsia, indigestion, sero- fuls, chronic coughs, rheumatism, chronic neuralgias, lassitude, eczema, etc. It is of great service in old age, the change of life it women, and for weak and puny children.

Chinese Bankrupt sent to Prison.
Gohn Guan Chew, sole partner of the Chop Khoon Seng at Singapore, has been sent to prison for two months for mis-
representation. The judge was of opinion that defendant had not kept proper books of account, and further, that he had con- tracted debts without having reasonable grounds for supposing that he would be
able to pay them.
The fatal fight between U. Haug, u storekeeper, and Wong Yuen, a boiler maker, which took place some days ago at the Cosmopolitan Docks, occupied the at- tention of Mr Wolfe at the Magistracy to- day. The pair were sparring, it seems, and they evidently became excited. Wong Yuen was knocked down and complained of a pain in the region of the spleen. He died whilst being taken to the hospital. Dr Hunter gave evidence that there were
no marks to indicate that death was the re- sult of a blow. The case was remanded.

He did so, but in the evening it seemed that a deli- berate assault was made upon the deceased by a crowd of fifteen coolies, among by whom were the three accused. They hack- ed and cut at him. he was knocked down -

Subsequent to the assault, the first and second prisoners went to the police station and made out charges of assault against Li Ki, but as they bore no marks of violence, no serious notice was given to sed by several persons, and the dead man's their complaints. The assault was witnes deposition, which contained a deliberate accusation against the three accused was admitted in evidence."

Ten witnesses were examined, and their depositions occupied the whole of the fore- noon and afternoon, They proved a clear, case of deliberate murder, and counsel having addressed the jury,
His Lordship, in his charge, said this case was important, because in the first place these murderous attacks by ganga of coolies upon persons who had incurred their displeasure in some way or other must be checked in the Colony. They had been of frequent occurrence about such places as Quarry Bay, where large numbers of coolies were employed; and these coolies must be taught that they could not take the law into their own hands. It was very import- ant that a brutal murder like this should not go unpunished if they could find our who did it. At the same time, the jury must not let their anxiety to put a stop to prisoners, and convict them without full these brutal murders do an injustice to the evidence against them. In this case there was no intermediate course; the persons who killed the deceased were murderers and not persons guilty of manslaughter,

Hongkong, October 21, 1902. DEAR SIR,It must be a consolation to those who closely observe the precautionary measures taken against plague as adopted during the past years in this Colony, as well as in other places, to learn that a large sum of money will not be squandered next year in that pettifogging and expensive method of combating the disease by the washing-out of houses and fumigation.
The following extract from the Treatise on plague in India by Dr Thomson should convince the public that the house-to-house cleansing which was carried out by our Sanitary Board from November to April last had practically nothing to do with the decrease of plague in
our midst this year-
From February, 1897, in Bombay, 31,000 people were engaged in washing the streets, houses, drains, &c., at the end of that year the mortality was frightful. In-September, it was decided to burn the bedding and clothing of the sick, to isolate them, and disinfect their dwellings; the epidemic con-

NO OPIUM IN CHAMBERLAIN'S COUGH REMEDY.
MA
[ANY cough cures contain opium. The effect of this drug is to diminish secration of the mucus, and the relief afforded is only temporary. As soon as the effect of the opium passes off, the malady returns in a more severe form. The system is also weakened and rendered more susceptible to cold. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy does not contain opium in any form. It affords relief and leaves the system in a healthy condition. It always eures and cures quickly.
