LABOR.

On June IA all labor contracts will be
void, but that does not mean that all
labor will cease. II the obligations of
the laborer towards the employer cease,
the obligations of the employer towards
the laborer also cease. The latter will
no longer be called upon to supply
house, wood and water to his laborer,
and he will not be called upon to have
a doctor on hand to attend the laborer
when he is sick
However, the laborer can enter into a
civil contract If he is so minded, and
suit can be brought to recover damages
for breach of contract Whether it will
be wise to enter upon such contracts
remains to be seen. Where the system
Of working on shares is adopted, there
must be civil contract, for in no other
way can the owner be protected from
careless and bad work.
We need not be under apprehension
of any extensive trouble when the
change comes. There are large num-
Der of laborers now on the plantations
who are not under contract. A man
tainly not going to loaf. His object in
coming to the Islands is to earn money,
and to earn enough that he may be able
to save a sufficient sum to return home
and live for a certain time among his
own people. The returning steamers to
the Orient are full of such people at
the present time.
Certainly man because his contract
is annulled is not, on that account, go
ing to give up the object for which he
left his home. To carry out that OBJ
ject there is only one thing to be done,
and that is to work. The main work
open to man is on the plantation, and
to the plantation he must go, or give up
his cherished scheme. The $4,000 Jap
anese now in California are under no
legal contract, but they stick to their
work, and over there we do not even
hear Of strikes.
The fact is, as often stated before,
if a man would eat he must work. 1t
is a law. 1t was recognized from the
earliest times. 1t is enunciated for us
in the third chapter Of the Genesis. I'm
the sweat of they face shalt thou eat
bread" All men recognize it, and If
they refuse to recognize it why their
stomachs very soon announce the fact.
The japanese likes his stomach far too
well to loaf

ELECTIONS

The report about william Henry s
action at the primary In the seventh
precinct did not make his position clear,
but an interview with him which Is
published today throws a very different
light upon it. what Mr. Henry wanted
was that his vote should be secret In
this MI Henry was right The judges
apparently did not understand the sys-
tenn by which secrecy can be obtained.
Where there was no contest, there
Was no need Of voting machinery, but
where there was a contest the names Of
all the candidates should have been
printed on one ballot, the voter should
have been allowed some place where
he could mark the name Of his candi-
date in secret; he should then have
given his ballot folded to the chairman,
who in the voters presence and in that
Of the judges. should deposit in the
ballot box. Above all there should not
have been anyone inside the voting
room but the three judges.
AS the Star is given to understand
each candidate had a separate ballot,
80 that II was plain to be seen for
whom the voter cast his ballot; more
over, i'm the room where the judges sat
there were some twenty or thirty peo-
pie. All this is in violation Of the Sc
crecy Of the ballot, and allows Of both
fraud and intimidation.
IL would be well for the central com
mittee at any future election to draw
up a simple set OF rules based upon
the Australian plan Of ballOting, and to
see that the judges appointed should
understand them. 1t is really a very
simple thing to prevent fraud during a
voting contest if only a rigid set Of
rules are properly carried out A study
Of our own election law would not be
a bad thing for some Of our would-be
politicians.

The Buddhists seem TO be making

There are seven Buddhist teachers out

The Buddhists do not confine them

ties, Buddhism has made considerable
Roadway among certain circles on the

in starting the new Buddhist church in
Honolulu the pastor has issued a state

tracing to his religious faith some Of

PHILIPPINE POSTAL SERVICE.
PLAN FOR EXTENSION SUBMITTED BY THE
DIRECTOR GENERAL.

Washington. Feb 1.-THE DISBURSEMENT OF
Posts of the Philippine Islands has transmitted
to the Postofice Department copy of letter
written by him to General OTIS in which is outlined
a plan for the extension Of the postal service IN
the islands His plan contemplates that the Army
shall take charge the service at points where II
,s NOT nracticahIe 70 employ clerks. Offices in
charge of American clerks are contemplated at all
places where there a large number Of people
and considerable tributary territory. At places
where troops are stationed the commanding offcer
will be asked to charge of stamps and other
postal supplies and to detail duty soldier
inca for field service 1t is desired to have
as few American clerks as possible on account of
the expense in salaries, natives being willing to
work much cheaper. The revenues from the island
of Negroes for ten months have not been sufficient
to pay the salary of superintendent for two
months. and since the withdrawal OF the greater
part of the troops from San Fernando the revenues
have scarcely amounted to $50 a month-about one
third the salary of superintendent.
