sisted in procuring labor out Of the
Immigration Fund, which justly be-
langs to the planters, who paid it to
the Government in the absence of the
persons for whom it was paid. would
also oppose the further Introduction Of
cadets to the colony, and have govern
ment offices conferred on sons of resi-
dents"
Still another outlines his platform as
follows:
There are several affairs which
should early claim attention, viz: In
creased expenditure on education;
Small export duty on sugar; Shorter
hours of labor; Regulation of Chinese
immigration; A Hill Sanatorium; Reg
ular examinations for civil service ap-
pointments.
Another one still bases his claim to
support on his assertions of honesty
and independence. Among a lot of 9TH
en- similar matter concluding with the
announcement that it is to be continued,
he says:
what every true son of Fiji wants
is someone who can see the truth and
is willing to speak it at the right time.
Someone who knows the man in the
street personally has known him and
his wants for years, and whose past
life has been honest enough to promise
that he is not Judas by nature. Vote
for an honest representative. A man
who knowing what you need and want
will put all of his weight into getting 1t
for you. Then If acting with a clear
brain and honest heart you should
select some other else than myself l
shall feel that l have fought a good
fight. 1 have no inducement to offer
to catch your votes but an honest heart
and a strong desire to do what is good
for my country and fellow men. / have
no palatial hotel to build, consequently
I cannot promise employment to an
elector. Oh, what petty means some
men will resort to to gain their am
bilious ends. l would rather be sea
slug and feed the hungry stomach of a
Chinaman than tempt men to sell their
conscience.

over twenty years this entities me,
believe to know the exact requirements
of both the native and European popu-
lation."
Another candidate seems to be some
what radical in his views, apparently
influenced by the radical legislation Of
New Zealand and New South Wales.
He asks for the support of the electors
on the following formulation of policy:
81 consider that the native policy Of
the colony should be remodelled and
that the Crown should acquire by pur-
chase or otherwise the native weste
lands of the colony and that special
inducements should be offered to for
eign capitalists to take up such land
which is eminently suited for the Gull
tivation of the tropical products spe-
cially needed by Great Britain and the
colonies of the empire. l am i'm favor
of a land tax on unimproved lands, as
i'm such a fertile country as Fiji all
lands should be under cultivation. I
will support legislation for a compul-
sorry weekly half-holday and the res
friction of the hours Of employment in
places of business. l am a great be-
lever in the advantages Of education
for all classes and consider that our
government should subsidise schools
throughout the whole colony. The
ordinances prescribing the regulations
of our customs are in my judgment
behind the times. Greater facilities
should be given to exporters. The geo.
graphical position Of Fiji entities it to
be the market Of the Pacific"
Another candidate makes a labor sup
ply the chief plank in his platform as
follows:
Il am largely interested i'm the well
fare of the colony and my interests
are therefore identical with your own.
The object Of legislation is to promote
the general interests of the colonists
and to attain this end every effort must
be directed to that mainstay Of success
"a full and Inexpensive supply Of la
Dor. The source of supply Of Polynesian
labor is becoming so uncertain and so
expensive that recourse must be had in
the near future almost exclusively to
coolie labor. To improve this class OF
labor I would advocate that some ex-
perienced planter should be sent to
India to select the laborers for engage
ment in Fiji. In this way we should
probably obtain a better class of labor
and at less expense. l would also ad-
vocate a radical change Of the native
policy, particularly i'm permitting FL
jians to pay their tax in money and
i'm dispensing with the interference or
native officials in their engagement as
laborers. Planters should also be as
