Free versus Contract Labor.

A writer in the last Gazette, appears very
anxious to display his ignorance on the labor
question, and especially on the manner in which
the Laie Plantation is conducted, signing himself
" Planter, :" though we cannot believe him to be
engaged to the extent of one dollar in sugar
planting. His whole article betrays entire igno-
rance of the various subjects on which he writes.
Mr.. Nebeker, the proprietor of that estate,
who has been in town the present week, has
called our attention to some of his m~isstatcments.
Instead of IS acres as stated by the writer referred
to, there are 40 acres of cane growing. The
regular supply of men during the grinding season
is As, but during other months, the number
varies, while frequently 60 women are also
employed in stripping cane. On occasions,
when no work offers, the number of hands is
reduced to ten or ttoekDe.
And herein is the great advantage of the free
labor system which this plantation has over most
Others-when there is little or no work, all the
hands may be discharged, and the expenses are
almost nothing while under the contract system,
the laborers have to be kept at work, and ex-
penses run on the same as during the busiest
season.
A keen and experienced planter, who recently
ISiiC iJc CNdIiihluS il cISlCIh duOBttQ
there, said that he believed it was the only system
by which n sugar plantation can be made to pay.
He had been in the sugar business for ten or
fifteen years, and had not for two years past
made q dollar, while the Laie Plantation has
shown itself paying a handsome interest from the
very start; and this is owing mainly to its cheap
and economical labor system.
Another misstatement of the Gazette writer
needs correction. Although a portion of the
natives living on the estate are Mormons, yet the
laborers employed are taken without regard to
their religious belief, no questions ever being
asked on that point, while a considerable number
are known TO belong to other sects. Who ever
heard of religious belief making Industrious
workmen? 1t is not any superiority in the Nor
mon belief but the system of free labor adopted
on the plantation which makes the laborer faith
full, and perform double the amount of work that
a contract laborer will.
We urge our planters. the editor of the Gazette
and any others interested, to visit Laie, and learn
for themselves. They will there see with their
own eyes facts demonstrated which cannot be
gain-said, and be able to learn much that has not
been referred to in print. If by the adoption of
free labor, sugar can be made for three cents a
pound, which under the expensive contract sys-
tenn costs tour, four and a halt or even fire cents,
then the sooner it is adopted the better for the
planters. Free labor, by being called in only
when wanted. is economical: while the ~contrac.
system, which compels the employment of labor
ers at all times, whether there is work or not for
them, is necessarily expensive.

rhe Australian steam Line.

Our adyices from San francisco by the late
mail. give positive assurances that the Australian
! line of steamers will soon running &C.
tween San Francisco and Sydney, with a branch
line to New Zealand. The Colonial Government
of New Zealand, acting in concert with that OF
Queensland, has guaranteed the full subsidy
sought by the English Steamship Company OF
e15O,O0O per annum for a monthly service he
tween San Francisco and Wellington, touching
at Honolulu, FIJI, Brisbane and Sydney.
But now that a spur has been given by the
bold guarantee of these enterprising colonies,
Ben. Holiday and VIM. II. Webb, the rival
steamship kings of the Pacific coast, are striving
for the prize. MIR. ii. left San Francisco Tor
Washington january 10, and hopes to obtain
Government aid to enable him to start the line at
once. Mr.. Webb was to have left the same place
for Washington on the 9th, with the same OBJ
iect in view. He has three boats-the NeUddd,
NEBRASKA and Ddkota-now fitting up in San
Francisco, with special reference to this service,
and they will be ready to start in February or
March, if his plans are successful.
Besides these there is an English company
ready to step in and do the service. So that be-
tween the three rival parties, it seems quite
likely that we shall soon, (~perhaps within three
months be brought in monthly steam ommuni
cation with the Fijis, Australia and New Zealand.
We trust that the Hawaiian Government will be
ready to lend a helping hand to whatever enter
prise shall be first established to open such a
connection for our growing commerce.
Charles Dickens has made another speech at
Birmingham. In the course of his remarks he al
luded to the fact that a former speech of his had
been misunderstood and said that he would there
fore. on this occasion, restate his political creed
He had no faith in the people with small p)
governing, but had entire faith in the People with
large p governed. He put infinite trust in the
masses, but none whatever in the so-called ruling
class.
A letter dated Zanzibar, Oct. %. from Consul
Webb, states that a letter has been received at the
British Consulate from DR.. Livingstone, dated May
Both. Livingstone was at Ugigi, on Yanyanyki
lake. where he had found his supplies. He was in
good health aud spirits. and proposed travelling to
the windward of Yanyanyki. unless some boatmen
and further supplies for which be had sent, reached
Ugigi early.
