OF THE M0LOKANS
THE LOCAL PAPER PUBLISHED
AT LIHUE CERTAINLY DOES
NOT FLATTER THEM.

"Grippe?" we inquired, as
the old codger stood wheeling and
coughing in the doorway. "Nitsky.'

in the middle of every sentence, and
wind up with a cough"

Nope"
Am going to let my hair grow long
and raise (straw-colored whiskers,
trimmed square, and perhaps George
witch and Prattslky will mistake me for
a Russian and let me in on the ground
floor with the MOlokans."
II have been in the islands almost
quarter of a century, and about the on
" show I have of getting a piece of
land is to find some poor devil of a
kanaka who is mortgaged up to the
hilt. and foreclose on him.
"The Molokans are it alright"
"When the Elders were down here a
the princely domain that was to be
given to them for tenth part of its in
trinsic value, they wept large briny
tears of joy, and broke forth into song.
Say, do you know any hymns suitable
for cracked voice? 1 might find them
useful later on.
when the people who have lived on
the land of Kapaa for twenty or more
years (many of them born there), heard
that it was to be thrown open to set
tiers, ninety-three of them at once en-
tered their applications, and were cool
ly told they were too late, and asked
why they did not apply sooner.
Now it seems to me this was add
ing insult. Nobody dreamed that it
was to go to anyone but the Makee Su
gar Company, and in fact the authori
ties were dickering with Col Spalding
for a renewal of the lease at the very
moment the Mol1kans appeared on the
scene. So American citizens, all eXpe-
rienced cane growers, were ruthlessly
thrust aside for these who have merely
declared their intentions.

per man, for say IS an acre, and at the
end of five years is given a title. And
in addition TO this the rice-growing
tenants pay the colony more than &c.,
600 year rent, which brings them from
20 per cent to 25 per cent on their in
vestment. When they have acquired
full title, it doesn't require a vivid i'm
agination nor prophetic powers to see
who will eventually get the land"
"They (the Molokans) are very much
discontented with the conditions here,
and claim that things were misrepre-
sented to them. They expected to be
gentlemen farmers evidently, and en-
ploy japanese to do the laborious work,
and in fact have already approached
them on the subject And the quarters
assigned to them temporarily are not
up to their high standard. How quick
ly htey have forgotten the mud shacks,
dirt floors, squalor and knouts of south
ern Russia. They are also dissatisfied
with their wages, and say in Los An
geles they received from .$2 to $3.50 per
day, while here they get but 500 a
month. The consequence is that not
more than half of them go to work, and
when they do turn out, it is from an
hour to an hour and half after the
other people. Then when they cut or
load cane for instance they do a little
more than one-fourth as much as a
