The text appears to be a jumbled collection of words and phrases, likely due to OCR errors. After reordering and correcting the text, it becomes:

It is well known that legislation without obstructing legitimate trade is needed. An ordinance was passed with this object in view, but it is not easy to attempt to pass such a law if continuous emigration is to receive consideration.

The check on the conduct of emigration agents must be conducted at home and abroad. I am confident that the procedure will lead to the shipment of coolies with proper accommodation.

At present, the great expenses to which these agents are put have made it a considerable burden. It is hoped that the arrangements will be carried out as smoothly as possible here and elsewhere, in the interest of all parties concerned, and that the traffic will not be impeded.

The supply of provisions from Hongkong is not a simple matter. The dropping of communications and the lack of proper facilities have caused difficulties.

Europe is a considerable distance away, and the conveyance of goods and people is a complex task. It is essential that the agreements between the relevant parties are properly managed.

Let the bureaucracy and its officials drive the process forward.
