Territory of Hawaii.

Territory OF HAWAII.
Some interesting facts about pres
ent conditions in Hawaii are pre-
sented by the department of COM
merce and labor through its bur
eau of statistics, These facts
reached that bureau in the Ha-
waiian Annual for 1904, which
arrived on the opening day of the
new year.
Regarding population, the figures
show a steady decrease in the num-
Der of natives and steady in
crease in the number of persons Of
foreign birth, especially Japanese
and Chinese. In 1872 the number
of natives was, in round terms, So
600, and in 1900, 100000 In 1872
the number of Chinese was, in
round terms, 2,000 and in 1900,
$4,000. The record of Japanese
among the population only begins
with 1884. when the number was
116 persons, but in 1900 the num-
Der was over $1,000. The total
population of 1872 is given at S.
S97, and in 1900 at 154,001. The
relation of nationality to plantation
labor is indicated by table which
shows the nationality and number
of sugar plantation laborers. the
number of Japanese being 31,029
out of total of all nationalities of
LAP, these figures being for the
year 1902. The japanese planta-
tion laborers increased from 1884
in 1894 to 1929 in 1902, while the
Chinese laborers on sugar planta.
tions fell in number from STA in
1897, to 1887 in 1902. Portuguese
are next in rank in the number of
sugar plantation laborers, the num-
Der of Portuguese being 1869; the
next following this is Porto Ricans,
2,036, while native Hawaiians ore
only 1893 in number.
Sugar, of course, continues to be
the principal crop of Hawaii, al
though a number of other tropical
products are now receiving careful
attention, including coffee, tobacco,
sisal fibre, manila hemp, vanilla
beans and pineapples. The exper-
iments with sisal grass, begun with
III the past two years, have given
great encouragement and lead those
engaged in the experiments to the
belief that Hawaii may become an
extensive producer Of that valuable
fibre, of which the importations in
to the United States amount to
more than $13,000,00O per annum
in value and are steadily increas-
ing. The Hawaiian Fibre company
reports out of its first crop an ex-
nortation of about SS O0O ~ voI,o
of sisal in the year 1908, this pro-
duct being obtained from an area
of about 40 acres. While DO re.
cent experiments have been made
with manila hemp, the report states
that samples of the plant from
which manila hemp is produced,
introduced several years ago in
various parts of the Hawaiian is.
