The authorities of those Islands have
as great a love of life, liberty and free
dom as can be found upon the face of
the earth. The laws governing that
country, with the exception OF those
enacted 10 meet conditions which do
not exist here. are almost identical
with the laws of the United States.
Therefore, with a country and its
people. or those in authority so nearly
related in their personal and govern

opinion. not only receive the encon-
iums of our people, but should receive
their support and assistance and these
opportunities should be enjoyed by our
people.

San Francisco, May 10, 1897.
f. L. Fitzgerald. Esq, Labor Commits
sioner, 325 Suffer Street, San Fran
cisco, Cal:
Dear Sir:-I have the honor to ac-
knowledge the receipt of your favor OF
the 18th inst, wherein you inclose a
communication and set OF resolutions
from the San Francisco Labor Council,
upon which you desire my opinion, and
also such other information as may be
pertinent to the subject.
In reply, l beg to submit the fol-
lowing answers to the questions en-
bodied in the set of resolutions passed
by the San Francisco Labor Council:
1. Whether the contract labor laws
OF that country have been repealed?"
No.
2. Does not that law provide for
specffic enforcement of contract labor?
Does not the laws in the Republic OF
Hawaii provide that any one making
a contract to labor must fulfill such
contract in pain of punishment NO
Not all contracts. Contracts to labor
NAV be made without penal enforce
ment clause. Either party making con-
tract may institute civil suit for dam
ages for breaking of contract as In
the United States. Clause may be in
serted IN all ny
or workman may be released from con-
tract by payment OF advances to him
for passage or otherwise.
3. Are not such contracts to labor
generally enforced?" Not generally.
4. Does not such specific enforce
ment of contract to labor amount to
slavery" Not by any means. Slavery
would not be tolerated for an instant.
The greatest proportion of the laborers
on the plantations at the present time
are free laborers; not under any con-
tract whatever. and are generally pre-
ferred by planters. LabOrers generally
insist upon a contract, as they are then
assured of employment for definite
period.
eff these laws are vet in force. had
not workingmen. though idle. better
wait before going TO Hawaii until the
authorities now in charge Of those
Islands shall respect liberty sufficient
to repeal their slave laws?"
AS have already stated that Hawaii
has no such thing as a slave law, 1t
is not necessary to repeat. At the pres
ent time. white labor is employed on
every plantation on the Islands, and
they are as contented and satisfied as
any Iaborer could wish for.
Trusting that what little information
/ have given you will be of some value
in your laboTs, l have the honor to be,
sir. your most obedient servant.

Hawaiian Consul General.
