CAPITAL AND LABOR.
BY SIR JULIUS VOGEL, PREMIER OF
NEW ZEALAND.

The welfare and Happiness OF
connunity depend, il my opinic II,
upon its members being occupied
and employed. A community of
which, a 'arge portion has not work
to do m, st be an unhappy one, Lut
it VII b no less unl ippy if those
who peri rm the work are not well
paid for their labor. The PROPOSE
tor, the, stands thus: The COM
munity is happy whose members are
well occupied and vel paid for their
labor. A community of this kind
attains ole important condition of
happiness in q general distribut on
of wealth. All theoretical com
mum site divisions of wealth are. to
my inind. hopeless. 1he one condi-
tion under which W allth becomes
gene rally distributed is that of we'll
paid labor which enjoys Il surplus
over and above the expenses OF .iv-
ing. The way is thus open to the
employed of to-day becoming The
employer of Tomorrow. Labor can
not ,louri h unless there is capital to
support It. The warts and me ms
of co, immunity which is without
capital are so snail that the demand
for labo is attenuatad. LabJr to
be we'll aid, requires, then, the aid
of capt.; |, and we arc thus ought
to the question of what shoulc he
the relat on between labor and CAPT
tai. Alt lough there IS such an init
mate union in labor and capital,
there is 1et great deal of antagon-
ism between them.
The Union and antagonism are
easily shown by familiar example.
A factory, we will suppose, is esiab-
lish 3D. Its owners, by the use of
capital and the employment Of labor,
make a ortune. They would not
have done so without the use Of their
capital, nor without the labor they
required being available. The qies-
tiori, the n, arises, has labor proiited
as much AS it should have done
Has it received fair share OF the
fortune made? The cry of the en-
ployed in England is that they do
not receive fair participation, or,
in other words, that the profits have
been sufficiently large to have en-
abled tie employers to pay more for
labor, and retain less on account of
the capital supplied. If labor is
sui jectcd TO the universal petit
ton Of III climates and countries, il
is clear that capital must be domi-
nant, ard that the condition of vel
paid labor, which have commended

OLIVE CULTURE.

EDITOR BULLETIN Among the
many industries advocated by YOU
for trial on these islands, do not
remember to have seen olive culture.
Has the olive ever been tried here?
Edo not see why it should lot thrive
and produce abundantly in Hawaiian
soil and climate. Indeed, consider
ing that its native home is in lati-
tudes near our own, with similar
soil, l am of opinion the olive would
do extremely well in this country.
With regard to the proftableness
of olive raising in countries adapted
to its requirements there is no ques-
ton. The trees live to n great age,
and require but little care and little
moisture. The process of gathering
the berries and expressing the oil is
easy and comparatively inexpensive.
The oil is in steady demand, and
varies but little in price. How
greatly it would add to the beauty
and wealth of Honolulu to have the
now bare mountain sides facing the
city covered with nourishing olive
yards! Professor.

A Theme For the Time,

The Decoration Day orators seem to be
running little dry. What with the fire.
quency Of the recurrence Of the occasion
and the oft-repeated story Of those who
appointed to speak, with war histories and
magazine articles, with memoirs and
"reminiscences, there does not seem to he
much left for saying to the Decoration Day
orator and our own city, we believe, this
year is left without any special speaker to
point the moral and adorn the tale. The
difficulty is that the occasion has seemed to
be limited to eulogy upon the soldier dead
Of the late war. There is no good reason
