LABOR STILL TIE QUERY
PLANTERS TALKING OVER THE
SITUATION.
Meeting to be Held This Week at
Which Some Solution of the Problem
May be Reached.

Today sugar factors and plantation
heads have discussed most of all the
labor question. Tomorrow or next day
a meeting will be held at which some
definite conclusion as to the proportion
of American labor to be employed will
be decided
The matter of sending Colonel Whyte
to the mainland in the interest of the
matter will not be determined until
the questions of the character of the
labor, number and from what points 1t
Will be drawn are settled This may
not be settled i'm q week or ten days to
come. 1t is felt at all hands that the
system now to be established must
serve as the ground plan of future ne
gotiations in the labor market, and
there is a general feeling that extreme
caution in all proceedings is necessary.
Three questions are before the plant
erS, whether labor can be drawn from
the Pacific coast, whether it will be nee
essary to go to the Mississippi valley.
or shall negroes be tried A resident of
the state of Washington has said to
them today: You cannot expect to
draw labor from our section. In the
wheat fields this spring we cannot get
pillow hands at $50 a month and all eX-
penses paid. OF course this shortage
of labor is unusual The war and the
klondike are to blame for the situa-
ton"
The Scandinavians of Minnesota and
the Mississippi valley are favored and
are being urged. There are few advo-
Gates of negroes. 1t has been pointed
out by people who know that negroes
who are worth their salt are already
engaged upon plantations, have their
families and will not leave their cab
ms for a new venture. The only class
that would come belongs to the villa
ges and are not worth passage money
for labor purposes besides being a
| menace anywhere to good order
