more than twelve dollars a month for
the support of fair sized family.
Take in Hardin and around there,
for example, few years ago there
were 100000 people there and the city
was alive and gay; but people have
been continually moving away. Men
and their families are walking the
country looking for employment or
chance to make living on the land.
FROM THE VOLGA REGION.
These people come originally, mo t
OF them, from Kieff, Paltova and the
region of the Volga, in Russia. We
gathered them at Hardin and at Dalny
and elsewhere and wherever we went
there were thousands who wanted to
get to us and there were hundreds al
ways to pick from. 1 tell you 1 would
have liked to bring along some of the
big men saw, to put them in our foot
ball team and in the Healani crew to
lick the stuffing out of the Myrtles,
even if for nothing else; but they were
not agriculturists and so we left them
for the more desirable stock, the agri-
sulturists.
SOLDIERS AND RAILROAD MEN
Among the contingent there are
many ex-soldiers' and some men who
have been working on the new rail-
way. You can see that some still wear
their railroad uniforms. A husky lot,
are they not?
in Dalny a fanatic socialist democrat
his long hair waving in the wind, start
ed to harangue the crowd and warning
them by no means to think of going
to the Sandwich Islands.
WARNED AGAINST HAWAII
He created quite a disturbance and
toll dthe people that he knew all about
these islands. He said he had been
to Australia and that these islands
were right by the shore of Australia
and that if they came here to work
they would have to work all the time
in water up to their waists.
Then a woman in the crowd who
had been asking anxiously if there
was enough work here to keep them
busy always and if there would always
be enough to eat, cried out that it
was food they wanted and she jumped
at the big fanatic and pulled him off
his pedestal and pulled his hair and
kicked him in the face. We heard
nothing more from him.
Zone fellow brought along a great
sheep-skin overcoat. 1 told him he
would not need it in Hawaii where
there was never such a thing as cold.
He laughed at me and said need not
try to fool him, for he declared that
he had lived for twenty-one years and
he had always observed that there was
one winter in every year. He brought
his coat.
II feel that we have a good crowd
here. They know that they are go
ing to be happier in Hawaii than they
could ever be at home and 1 believe
they will benefit Hawaii"
las to where these people go now
that they are here" concluded Mr.. At
hnson, Il have nothing to do or say.
They land here at liberty to work
where and how they will"
This, of course, is in conformity with
the law, no labor being contracted for,
