Needs Rapid Transit

If we remember rightly Mr.. b. f.
Dillingham;, is one OF the supporters
or promoters Of the proposed Rapid
Transit Corporation. We have been
asked to suggest to the energetic
promoter" that he attends to his
own little railroad, before bothering
about the "mule line," on which the
passengers get there" even If the
speed is not rapid. Last evening,
says our informant, the train from
Waianae, due here about 6 p. m.,
failed to materialize but the down
train after many delays in waiting
for the up-train finally arrived at its
destination. The engine Of the train
bound for town had run off the track
and the people who had enjoyed
their Sunday visits at the Peninsula
we're obliged to stay at Manana
station, four long weary hours, be-
fore their train arrived. Why an
engine with, say one passenger car
was ne. dispatched from Honolulu
to pick up the disgusted, hungry
crowd is one OF the things Mr..
Dillingham; should explain, before
the public gives him few sugges-
tions about rapid transit" on his line

Senator McCandless has received
a goodly share of abuse because he
criticized the "junketing" trips in
which the authorities have indulged
during the past fiscal period. We
believe that Mr.. McCsndless is right,
but we regret that he lacks the inde-
pendent spirit, which should make
him call for a detailed account Of
the expenditures connected with
the numerous expeditions of officials
at public expense while, as Mr..
Cooper says, the laborers OF Portu-
guese aud Hawaiian nationalities
are starving.

while ago that the present condi-
tious as far as the working classes
are concerned are desperate, and
that the government we're doing
everything in its power to find avail
able appropriations, which would
Justify them in finding work for the
slaving classes. The Minister was
honest enough, and he stated cold
facts, but he did not explain why
public improvements are being post
pouad or neglected, while the most
extravagaut and ridiculous expendi-
lures are being advocated and
espoused by the Government.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-03-14

The labor question is at present
the most difficult and dangerous
among the problems which the ad-
ministration is called on to settle.
There are breakers ahead which the
men who have usurped the powers
of government do not yet realize
but which are being watched with
intense interest by the people whose
home Hawaii is, and who do not live
here to further some selfish money
grabbing scheme, but are here be-
cause they justly call this land their
own.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-03-14

1t is not encouraging to the un-
employed, however, to notice a
message from the President, in
which he asks for a raise in the
salaries Of his Cabinet Ministers, or
when the government asks for money
to pay the expenses OF special
"drummers," who are to introduce
our coffee" abroad and find markets
for that commodity. The "unem-
ployed" cannot understand, why the
great mercantile houses which con-
troll the coffee crops in the Hawai-
ian Islands should not pay their
own expenses in advertising the pro-
duct and looking for markets. The
unemployed Portuguese, who live
ON chicory and bread, and the Ha-
waiians who, according to the Off
cial organ cannot even buy his
national food, poi, cannot see any
justice in the proposition Of some
Legislators to reduce the duty on
saki, because the present price Of
that beverage has become so high
that the "poor" Japanese can't
afford to drink daily pint of their
"national" drink. Would it not be
wise to ignore the petitions from
the Japanese who want their
Irrational" drink as cheap as posi-
BILE, until the question Of the
"national" food OF Hawaiians and
Portuguese has been settled?

THE LABOR CUES TON.

A number OF the ambitious poll

proposed changes in the present
laws relating to contract labor.

The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-03-14

The present labor contract laws
are iniquitous, tyrannical and con-
trary to the first principles Of justice.
An ignorant barbarian enters into a
contract with a Sugar Company,
managed by one of the noble, and
fair Anglo-Saxons. If the poor ignor-
ant barbarian violates his contract,
perhaps through his ill-treatment
by his employer, he can be sent to
Jail and punished by the magistrates
and other officials, who are appoint
ed through the recommendation
and influence of the same sugar
barons. If the employer or his
agents violate the contract there il
no penalty for him, and all court
listening to the complaint, can do
is to cancel the contract-the en-
ployer be cannot punish.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-03-14

The gentlemen who attended the
meeting we're not representing the
sugar interests Of the country or the
People. They did a great deal Of
talking nevertheless, advanced sound
ideas aud will accomplish nothing.

The O'Moore Concert.

The first appearance on Saturday

Of this issue.

TIE INDEPENDENT sincerely believes
in the repeating Of the present penal
clause in our labor laws. We could
fill a volume with arguments in
favor of abolishing the present con-
ditions, but we can never support
the reasons OF the Earnest Patriots"
who met yesterday when it was said
that the labor laws should be chang
ed for the sake OF annexation.

1t is hardly worth the while to
give space to discussion relating

in our existing laws, as the amend
ment can never be carried but the
future outlook is of interest to all,
if not OF danger to our peace and
safety.

The Earnest Patriots" are con-
tinuing the introduction Of cheap
Japanese coolies, while Portuguese
settlers and Hawaiians are starving,
unable to compete with the Asiatic
hordes, who eventually will be un-
controllable, If the present labor
laws should be changed.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-03-14

The labor question will cause
trouble, and the trouble is not far
off. People decline to starve in all
countries, and monster demonstra-
tions OF the unemployed against
government which has caused the
present conditions, will easily be
followed by bread riots and general
turbulence to the disaster OF mer-
chants and planters alike. We do
not desire to pose as pessimists, but
the handwriting upon the wall is
becoming more and more legible
every day. If the labor question is
to be solved without danger to the
peace of the country the Planters
must step to the front, be satisfied
with reasonable profits, and pay
living wages to the men now here
who are willing to work honestly
and faithfully, but are unable to exist
on the wages paid to the Japanese
coolies, whom the government is
pouring into these fair isl es.

CAPE HAITIEN. Haiti, June 5, 1880 a. m
According to the latest advices from Mon
tie Cristo General Jimines, the leading spirit
in the revolutionary attempt, divided his
men on landing into two columns, one of
which attacked and took the fort, the other,
led by Jimines, marching to the governors
house. Governor Galito was seized and the
demand was made on him by Jimines that
he sign a paper accepting the leadership
Of the revolutionists for the northern dis
trict. Governor Galito refused, saying that
he was too old to take part in revolution.
General Jimines then told him he was
prisoner, and he was marched out between
the files of insurgents. In the street, how
ever, column of government troops met
the Jimines column, and in the combat
which ensued Galito escaped. The govern
ment force being stronger, pressed back the
insurgents who for half an hour retreated
slowly, all the while fighting towards the
shore
General Jimnes was furiously attacked
personally and the commander of the de-
tachment which captured the fort aban-
doned the fort and came to his rescue. The
final and most desperate fighting took place
at The waters edge. There Morales and
Boaz were killed. A party of Insurgents
under Gen. Chuchu Mercedes, seeing that
defeat was inevitable, took refuge in the
mountains 1t is reported that they were
surrounded later and that Mercedes was
shot. Revolutionists here Monte Cristo)
say a mistake was made in showing any
clemency whatever to Governor Galito, in
stead of killing him offhand, for Galito i'm
mediately began bloodthirsty measures Of
vengeance on all the employees of the mer-
camille house of which Jimines was the
head. To the number of sixteen they were
adJudged guilty of conspiracy and taken
out and shot Among them were several
boys not more than seventeen years old.
In the fight six insurgents were killed and
about twenty-four have been executed since
1t is supposed that Gen. Torevio Garcia es-
capped with Jimines but this is uncertain
Advices from Puerto Plata say that all is

LIVERPOOL, June 5-Captain Williams,
or the British steamer La Guna, of the
Elder, Dempster & Co.'S line, plying be-
tween Rotterdam and West African ports,
writes to the company as follows: AT 7:40
p. m. May 16. when thirty miles north north
west of Cape Finsterre 1.-THE most westerly
headland of SPAIN, we sighted a large YES
sci painted white, with a yellow funnel
showing the American colors. She steamed
towards us till within three miles of us,
when, having sighted our colors. she was
evidently satisfied, as she turned and dis
appeared northward."
The identity of the alleged American YES
sci is unknown here, but if she were an
American she was apparently looking out
for Spanish craft.

THE MICHIGAN SAILS.
| The Monterey Will BE Ready to Leave
for Manila To-Day.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 5.-The United
States sloop of war Mohican came down
from the Mare Island navy yard this MORN
ing, and after a brief delay sailed at 1890
F. m for Honolulu. 1t is understood that
she will remain on duty at that port, re-
placing the Bennington, ordered to join Ad-
miral Dewey's fleet at Manila. The coast
defense vessel Monterey and the big collier
Brutus, which is to tow her from the Ha-
waiian islands to the Philippines, were to
have gone with the Mohican, but shortly
before the time set for their departure the
chief engineer of the Monterey discovered
her evaporation was not in good working
condition An order for new tubes which
it was thought necessary to insert, was i'm
mediately sent to the Union iron works. At
first it was believed the taking out of the
defective tubes and the insertion of new
ones would require about thirty-six hours,
but this work has been so expedited that it
may be completed by tomorrow afternoon.
In this event, which now seems probable,
the Monterey and Brutus will sail to-mor-
row evening. The defect in the Monterey S
condensing machinery was not serious, but
it was not deemed advisable to start on so
long a cruise without everything about the
ship being in perfect order.
