ON ITALIAN COLONIZATION
TERMS OFFERED HERE ARE NOT
GOOD ENOUGH.
What Other Countries are Offering
for the Best Class of Italian Agri-
cultural Laborers.

Leaving out the question of desira-
bilty OF Italians as cItlzens, it is said
to be a matter of grave doubt wheth-
er the agricultural classes of Italy
could be induced to emigrate to Ha-
waii ON the terms offered by the plan
tiers. The Italian agrculturist wants
a little land of his own, which he can
cultivate for his own benefit. lie does
not want "A little garden patch which
may be his today and somebody's
else tomorrow. The inducements OF
fered by the Hawaiian planter are not
comparable to those offered for the
same class of labor elsewhere. Take
the Argentine Republic for instance
The laws of that country offer the in
tending emigrant not less than TWEEN
~ acres in fee simple, together with
free passage for himself and family
and provisions and seed enough to
last him until his first crop is pro-
duced. He is even allowed the use
of government teams and plows when
required. Where special colonies are
formed even greater inducements are
offered. even to the extent of 100 ac-
res of land to each head of a family.
Owing to these liberal inducements
the best class of Italian agricultural
lists are to be found in Argentina. The
inducements held out to Italian me-
chanics are also great; in fact. with
the exception of a few English and
Scotch mechanics of a high class. they
have monopoly of mason work, of
brick laying, marble cutting, painting
and frescoing, carpentering, etc. Out
of a population of about 100000 in
the city of Buenos Ayres alone there
are 10000 Italian laborers and me-
chanics. Steamship travel to Italy is
something enormous, there being no
less than seven lines plying to Naples
and Genoa, first class steamers of IA
to Is knots. The rate of steerage fare
is so low, $50 for single trip and $50
for the round TRAP. that large num-
bers of laborers make practice of
spending about eight months at work
in Argentine and the other four in It..
ally in the wine season.
The climate of the Argentine Re
public is very similar to that of Ha-
wdii, but somewhat cooler. The Bra
lillian government offers greater in
ducements to immigrants but the eli
mate is such that immigration is light.
Venezuela is the latest in the field
with offers for Italian labor The in
ducements offered may be gathered
from contract which has Just been
signed by the Italian Colonization So
ciety and the government of Nenezue-
la, under the terms of which the Com
panY will send 5000 families of agri-
CulturaliStS to Venezuela in thraa
