JAPANESE TO
CUT LUMBER
MAHOGANY COMPANY WANTS A
THOUSAND FOR ITS RAILROAD
CONTRACT.

WV INN
HILO, October 24.-Arrangements |
are under consideration for securing |
direct from the Orient to Hilo, nearly
thousand skilled Japanese axemen,
men who have worked and been train |
ed in the forests of their own country, |
to work for the Hawaii Mahogany and |
Lumber Company in filling its con- |
tract for Ohia ties with the Atchison |
Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. The
nature of the forestry work involves
a special kind of labor. Furthermore
if the axemen come here direct from
Japan, there will be no interference
with the normal supply of plantation
labor Any men who might come in
this way would, of course, pay their
own passage and be at liberty to go
where they pleased after their arrival
here. They could come, however, with
! the knowledge that forestry work was
awaiting them at a stated rate wages,
should they care to accept it.
