MANAGER M'STOCEER
Was Not the Man Who Raised
Wages of Free LabOrers.

If a Japanese, having taken con-
tract to clear land for the Olaa Sugar
Company, finds himself short of labor
ers and in order to secure supply Of
fers much higher wages than has been
paid in several years, should the man
ager of the plantation be held respon-
sible? 1t was not Mr.. McStOcker who
raised the price of free laborers on 1he
plantation which he manages; he fol-
lowed the course laid out by other man
ayers and has had absolutely nothing
to do with the notices posted in camps
Offering $3.50 per month for Japanese
laborers. Responsibility for that rests
with the Japanese who have taken con-
tracts to clear the land and who have
given security for the faithful fulfilling
of their part of the contract. In the
line of clearing lands Manager Nc
Stocker has done well. In one instance
he has about entered into contract
for clearing timber lands at a price
far below what is now being paid for
clearing lands of the same character
on another and dividend-paying plan
tation. Criticism in respect to expen
sive clearing of lands in Olaa is rather
unjust when it is considered the cor
rect thing for other managers to pay
higher price for the same work. Due
attention was given by the Olaa Sugar
Company to the matter of labor, but it
hn hot
able number of Japanese have arrived
here since the plantation started. The
Herald would like to know if the
stockholders in the Olaa Sugar Com
pany would have consented to pay the
wages of 500 laborers while the COM
pany was in process of formation

What He Saw at Hilo. Spreckels-

GOES HOME IN TWO WEEKS
Labor Conditions as Ascertained by Him
The Profit Sharing System
Bening Extended.

d. A. Ray, who is here on a special
mission to investigate the labor condi-
tions of the Islands, returned yesterday
morning from a visit to Hawaii and
Maui. During his trip he visited a
number of the plantations and comes
back well satisfied with what he saw.
4 remained on Hawaii only two
days this time" said Mr. Ray last
Scott of the Hilo Sugar Co. and also
gathered some data regarding other
plantations. Mr.. Scott has had no
trouble with labor and the plantation
is doing well. He has introduced a
sort of profit-sharing system among
the Japanese and it has met with sue
cess. The same plan has been used by
Manager Lowrie of Spreckelsville. The
laborers seem to work better when they
feel that to a great extent they are
working for themselves.
''The men are getting good wages and
in general are perfectly contented. In
some instances a luna arouses the ami
mostly of gang and they do not rest
until he is either discharged or trans
ferred. In most cases these causes for
dislike are trivial, the cruelty such as
has been detailed by agitators in the
San Francisco Examiner being un-
known.

They are making improvements there
now, the cost of which will aggregate
in the millions. For new pumping
plant which is shortly to be installed
they have made excavations sixty feet
deep and one hundred feet square.
That's good-sized hole But the Won
derful thing about it was that after the
first twenty feet was thrown out, the
had to be blasted out of al
most solid rock. When they complete
all their irrigating arrangements it

and was never more impressed with
in my life.

Haiku and Paia, are all prosperous. XII

blowing, which is now going on there.
They are making rapid progress on

Mr.. Ray will remain here about two
weeks longer. He has been on every
one of the Islands and has acquired a
vast amount of general information.
