THOSE CONTR ACT LABORERs.

EDITOR EVENING BULLETIN
Now that Congress, through lack
of time, did not extend to these
islands the i'm migration aud labor
laws in force on the mainland, it
will now be in order for com
mittee from the Planters Associ.
alton to meet the Executive Coun-
Gil and order anywhere from ten
to twenty-five thousand more con-
tract laborers. 1t will be placed
high enough to prevent any neces.
sity for American labor lsborers
10 Hawaii for a long time to come.
Mr.. Robertson, who has re-
Gently been in Washington i'd

in the immigration business, but
II 10 shares of Makaweli stock to
eocoanuts that his advice will be
ignored. Of course it is possible
that this continuous labor immi-
grafton will hurt US when it comes
to determine our status in regard
to America. 1t is also more
than possible that these contract
laborers will an time become ma
turalized and vote, thus adding TO
our present political compiled
tons.
But those who govern Hawaii
and who, one would think, should
have a permanent interest in Ha-
waii are willing to take all of
these risks in order to secure in
advance in sugar stocks and in
creased dividends. With Madame
De Pom adour they say "After us,
the deluge" And when we
get that long delayed decision
from the Supreme Court (and
we will geD, that contract labor is
III conformity with the American
Constitution .hen We vii! show to
the world that il we cannot be
Americanized, that we can Hawai-
ianize the American Constitution.

To settle down to straight bust
ness, Why should not Mr.. Dole as.
sumo the du les Of the Minister of

connected with the position is IN
the department. Of education. With
Mr.. Dole performing the functions
of this office the Cabinet would he

Government and the Republic of
Hawaii is today practically pro-
visional American government
More important still is the fact
that a combination of the offices OF
ex President and Miui lister of For
eign Affairs would save the gov
eminent a big salary. Should this
combination of Offices result in u
tie vote on'matters of public i'm
port, it might be provided that Mr..
Dole shall have two votes, one for
Mr.. Kings friends and one for hi"
opponents, thus it could never
again be said that Mr.. Dole hesi-

capacity. The official organ 10 it,
