WEATHER YESTERDAY.
THE RIGHT WAY.

Late dispatches from the coast say
that the first lot OF negro laborers
from the Southern States for Hawaii
left Nashville. Tennessee. December
zOth Had the same honest efforts
been put forth in the bringing of the
Porto Ricans to Hawaii that have been
enploved in the case OF the negroes
there would have been no ground for
criticism.
Foremost among those advocating
the trial Of negro laborers in the cane
fields OF Hawaii have been hessrs.
Alexander & Baldwin In order 10 get
at the question understahdingly these
gentlemen sent nessrs. f. 4. Baldwin

negro laborers in the Southern States.
They went first to New Orleans. inter

planters about the negro laborers.

work. Not content with this they in
vestigated conditions in the cotton
fields OF Mississippi. Alabama and Ten
nessee. and convinced themselves that
the negro would not only be a good
laborer for Hawaii but useful citizen
in every way. Arrangements were
made by these gentlemen with several
hundreds laborers TO come 10 Hawaii
as soon as the cotton picking season
had closed.
In order however to convince the
negroes that conditions in Hawaii
were as represented they sent over
here two men. one Of them a colored
minister. to fully investigate the labor
conditions of Hawaii and report 10
their people at home. These men de-
parted for the states on the Zealandia,
December LIST. and the result OF their
investigation will undoubtedly be 4
favorable report which will result in
hundreds OF negroes coming to Ha-
waii No deception was practiced:
everything was done openly and above
board as il should be. That is the
proper spirit to show in bringing labo--
ers here for the sugar plantations.
Messrs Alexander & Baldwin have set
an example that should be followed
by every planter in the Islands and
then there could be no cry of falsehood
and chicanery raised by evilminded
persons

Not since the days of the bred Scot
decision has there been so much inter
est shown in a decision of the United
States Supreme Court as is now
aroused over the Porto Rico and Phil
ippins cases. Grea- as was the inter
est in the income tax decision of 1894
ii is not equal to that shown in these
cases. They involve much more
weighty problems than did the income
tax case. In short it may be said that
the fate of the nation depends upon
the decision in these cases. In them
the question really is whether or not
the Congress of the United States can
possess power outside of the consti-
tuition; one by the way which not even
the British Parliament possesses.
