in the Territory where the price of

But the annexation of Hawaii to the
United States in 1898 extended to the
Islands the Chinese Exclusion Act as
well as the contract-labor laws, and the
planters chief supply of labor was shut

tation OF the sugar planters, law was
enacted imposing special two per cent
income tax on all incomes in excess of
$4,000. 1t was provided that the money
thus realized should 60 into a special
fund, a quarter of which was to be used
for conservation of natural resources
and the remaining three-fourths for i'm
migration purposes. AS the planters are
almost the only ones who have incomes
of $4,000 or more, it is really they who
pay the special tax. The money being
used almost exclusively for their ben
eft, this is as it should be.
Results Unsatisfactory.
Unfortunately, however. the results
obtained from the expenditure of the
immigration fund have been anything
but satisfactory. The immigrants re-
cruited by the Board of immigration of
the Territory and brought to
the Islands at public expense, their pas
sage being paid out of the special fund,
have not proved TO be all it was hoped
tlCS NOulIt. III IdCt, tIlc WOIh VI lue
Board of immigration has proved so
farcical that the next Legislature will
in all probability, repeal the Iimmigra-
ton and Conservation Act or, if it does
not repeal the law it may amend it so
as to continue the imposition of the spe-
cial income tax and provide that the
revenue therefrom shall go into the gen
eral fund instead of being used for the
purchase of men. The Russian fasco
has probably, in fact, brought about the
end OF assisted immigration. The gen
eral sentiment of the community on the
subject was expressed in the Hawaiian
Star, of the issue of May Z. That daily
says:
Time for O. Change.
There probably could be no safer
prophecy than that the next legislature
will abolish the little government with

by the Legislature of 1909. The lending
OF the tax machinery to raise a special
fund for the purpose of promoting i'm
migration and establishing the consef-
walton of natural resources is meant. AS

failure-it has been costly blunder

You Can Lead the Horse to Water,

The throng of dissatisfied and discon-
tented Russians who faced Governor
Frear that LIST day of April, 1910, was
a part of Hawaii's investment in men,
AN investment that did not look very
promising. For with them from Man
churia had come suspicion, Incidence,
discomfort and anarchy. A few of them
had been three or four months in the
Islands, but most of them had arrived
two or three weeks before and had not
even gone to spy out the land and learn
to what kind of country they had
come to make their homes. Yet they
stood before the Governor, sullen, low
browed, obstinate, and declared, eve
will starve and die, but we will not
work; we will not go to the planta-
tons.
And all that the Governor could say
TO them was that in this land of the free
he who will not work may not eat. And
in Hawaii he who will work must per-
force work on the sugar plantations.
The principal and almost the only in
dustry of any great Importance in Ha-
wall is the production of sugar. The
rich men are the ones who have made
their fortunes directly or indirectly out
of sugar.
And the planting, cultivation and har-
vesting of sugar-cane, and the CONVEX
sion of the juice of the plant into sugar,
requires the labor of many thousands of
men. The areas planted to cane have
increased rapidly of recent years, out
stripping the influx of men to work the
fields.
Consequently the planters are eager
to do almost anything that will add to
the supply OF cheap labor even to the
extent of spending many thousands of
dollars annually in the importation of
men. The planters need Drawn rather
than brain. Which is not to say, how
ever that the rest of the community
looks at the matter in the same light.
Assisting immigration.
Formerly the Hawaiian Sugar Plant
ers' Association was permitted to re-
cruit and import foreign labor, and it
sent its own agents to foreign countries
to look for and ship to the Islands the
men so much needed But few years
ago the immigration authorities at
Washington put a stop to this and de-
cision was rendered to the effect that
labor could be recruited only through
the Territorial Government
The Territorial Government had not
the funds to carry on the work, but the
planters got around this by contribut-
ing directly to the support of the Gov
eminent s campaign for men, until the
powers at the National Capital, through
Act of Congress, ruled that no person
or corporation should be permitted to
contribute to the immigration fund.
But once more the planters solved the
problem. AT the last session of the Ha-
waiian Legislature, at the urgent solici-
