AN Important msstine.

AT a special meeting OF the Oahu
Sugar Company Saturday, it was
decided to extend the contracts OF
the American Sugar Refinery and
the Western Sugar Refinery from
October l, 1903, when the present
contract expires, until October L,
1905 Other local plantations will
it is said soon take the same action.
Under this agreement the panta.
tions will receive the New York
market price on the day OF arrival in
that city, or at San Francisco,
minus 3 16 OF cent per pound.
This will probably result unfavor.
ably to San Francisco interests, as
this equals $3.50 per ton, which
amounts to considerably more than
the additional freight around the
Horn to New York.

Cut in Wages.

II is rumored that there is to be a
general cut of ten per cent in wages
and salaries on Spreckelsville plan
tation, beginning January l, 1902.
Other plantations on Maui to sur
vive the present bard timea will
probably have to adopt similar
seemingly harsh measures.
President Roosevelt's reference to
Hawaiian affairs in his message,
which is much discussed on the ISL
and, has not improved matters or
opinions. People are beginning to
ask what sugar estates have leased
lands from the government and the
acreage and term OF the leases.
Most OF the plantations of Maui
(all the large ones) own their lands
in fee simple, though some OF them
have government water under long
terms. It is to be hoped that the
President will soon visit Hawaii-nei
to determine for himself the slight
value to the small farmer OF such
