WARM CONTRADICTION.
Plantation Manager Aroused On
Wage Figures.

MIR. EDITOR When a man is suffi-
GENTLY we'll posted to set up as an in
structor of his fellow men, by writing
the leading article of leading news
paper it can surely be supposed that he
will have as much knowledge of what
is going on around him in broad day
light as will enable him to be, at least
approximately, accurate in his publish
ed statements. Now in your leader of
today occurs this statement: CA Por-
tuguese laborer with a wife and several
children cannot live as a plantation
laborer on S13 per month. Here is the
situation" etc., etc. You thus lead
your readers to infer that such is the
rate of pay on these Islands.
Now, sir, would ask you if this is
mistake; a statement made through
ignorance; or an intentional misrepre-
sentation? 1t is we'll known fact that
SIS per month, with house, fuel and
generally medical attendance all free,
is the standing rate of pay for adult
Portuguese Very few Of them need to
remain even at that rate of pay if
they have any go in them. This Of
course is for free men. The last lot
Of Portuguese that were brought to
this country were shipped at SIG per
month, of course with the above men
toned privileges in addition, but they
cost the planters over 5000 per man to
bring them here.
On this plantation, where % of these
contract men are working, it is fact
that, although their contracts are still
running, only nine of them are in re-
ceipt of the bare SIG for which they
were shipped. The other sixteen are
receiving all the way between SIS and
$32 per month cash, besides above
mentioned privileges. The free Por-
tuguese receive all the way from SIS
to $50 per month. Further, some little
time ago, the Portuguese here were
admitted into the profit-sharing sys-
tenn, that has been so successful on
this plantation, and were thus enabled
to make very high wages; but, much to
our disgust, they quarrelled so much
and so frequently amongst themselves,
that we were reluctantly obliged to
discontinue the extension of this priv
ilege to the Portuguese. We also had
a similar experience in allowing the
contract Portuguese to load cane at so
much per ton, and we know that the
Portuguese Consul-General can corro-
borate these statements if he will.
Now, sir, can hardly bring myself
to believe that you are Intentionally
creating prejudice against the plan
tiers by such a misstatement as the
one alluded to; and / would respectful
ly ask you to explain how you came
to allow it to appear in your columns.
This letter is intended for publica-
ton, if you are willing that it should
appear, and
/ remain, yours truly,
w. J. LOWlRIE.

A New Enterprise.

Messrs. Wilson and Whitehouse have
been appointed the sole licensees for
the Hawaiian Islands of the Rubber
Tire Wheel Co. The claim made by
them is that rubber tires and roller
bearing axles cost absolutely nothing
as they prolong the life Of the vehicle
and save their cost many times in re-
pairs alone, besides reducing the draft
forty per cent.
A feature which should prove valu-
able one on account Of decreasing the
cost is the fact that it is not necessary
to have new wheels made, the old ones
are simply removed from the carriage
or dray, the old tire detached and the
new channel placed in position. Into
this channel tire, the rubber is secured
by means Of two heavy steel wires,
passed through the rubber from end
to end, if a circle may be said to have
an end, and so secured as to leave no
joint.
The Rubber Tire Wheel Co. claim
that this is the only method known
that will hold rubber tires in place,
no matter what strain may be brought
to bear upon them.
Messrs. Wilson and Whitehouse may
be found at the Hawaiian Carriage
Manufacturing Co.'S, Queen Street.

Foster was thrown overheard by a

the steamer was stopped Hard work
was experienced in getting natives to
man the boat. Finally two volunteed to
go with Purser Kelly and another
jumped in as the boat was lowered

he was about to go down. One of the
natives caught him and, in a little
while, he was safe aboard again.

1--WE refer to the.rate of wages $13. so
paid to the Asiatics, as the standard Of
wages paid for the cultivation of sugar
cane. 1t may vary more or less, from
time to time. 1t has been even as
high as $22. Even if $50 per month
were paid on the plantations, it would
not affect our argument. We discuss

I fancy, Pickering round "the sacred

many others of more or less celebrity

Charles Dickens stood beside Brown
