Let us look for a moment at the con-
dition of the Portuguese on these Is
lands. They came here a few years ago,
bringing nothing with them but sturdy
arms to labor They have labored, and
Iabored we'll They have saved money.
full of little holdings owned and Guilt
waited by Portuguese. The Hilo district
is also full of Portuguese, working in
dependently and owning their own
homes. Moreover, there is a large CO.
operative enterprise being carried on
there, the shareholders in which are
entirely Portuguese. In Hamakua the
homesteads above Honokaa are almost
entirely in the possession of Portu-
guese. They raise enough garden pro-
duce to support their families and they
have planted out considerable area in
coffee. In Kona, through the coffee
belt, there are many Portuguese hold
ings; they plant coffee and some own
cattle, while up Hualalai the daries, if
memory serves us right, are entirely
run by Portuguese.
In Honolulu, if any one goes through |
the Portuguese section of the town, |
there are no signs of dire poverty such |
as one sees south of Market street in |
San Francisco, or in the purleins of any
great city. The houses are furnished.
The gardens produce vegetables, figs,
grapes and flowers. Most of them have
a chicken coop, and they find a ready
market for all their little produce. The
girls find employment as seamstresses,
IS nurse girls, as house servants, and
here is work for the men, if they
Wish it.
