OF Hawaii.
HLo. Hawaii August u.s. The Her-

aid and Tribune have the following.
From nearly every plantation comes
the report that the IDurcIs have be-
come suriy since their CoutraCta We're
cancelled. Ia many instances they
have given up work aud setued iu
near by towns doing principally moth
ling, For several years Honolulu mas
been Infested by hurdvs of Oriental
luuters who live upon fallen Womeu.
liilO has not reached that stage yct
but Is rapidly getting there, and The
people ask for remedy or preVenta-
tive. There is "A vagraucy law ON the
IctHtutCs that Is almost dead letter,
whereas n IA was enforced 10 the limit
the towns would be rid OF the lQahng
element ana the plantations Moull
have all the lahOrers they require.
There Is work ana plenty of II for ey-
Icry Japanese who crowds into the al
legged hotels on Front street, aud some
lehurt should be made to convince them
that they are liable TO prosecution un-
less they show some means OF support
In order to obvlate difficulty with the
laborers many Of the plantations are
entering into contracts with them for
growing cane ON the cooperative plan,
and In one instance the terms are aX-
lceedinBly favorable TO the contractor,
but even with this they do not seem
anxious To enter into an agreement,
AS rule the laborers We're brought
here for "A specific purpose, and they
should be compelled as far as possible
to live up TO their part OF this agree
ment
