Clark DisapproVes.

Or. Victor S. Clark, of the Depart,
ment of Labor, immigration and Sta
tistics, does not believe that Mexican
would be feasible for
Hawaii for several reasons. More
over, DIR. Clark does not express this
opinion without due knowledge where
of he speaks, for he has made an
exhaustive study of Mexico and its
people in the interests of the Federal
Bureau Of Labor, and a great deal of
interesting and valuable data is en-
bodied in his official report on the
subject published in 1908.
In the first place, the laws of Mex
leo, according to DR.. Clark, would not
permit the recruiting of laborers
within it's borders Then again, the
agricultural class of the Mexican
poems DR.. Clark does not consider es-
pecially efficient. In the mining dis
tricts there is an efficient class of
Iaborers, and it is of this class the
American contractor draws for his
labor supply most largely. DR.. Clark
does not think that this class would
make especially good plantation labor,
ers even if they could be secured for
wages that it would be possible to
pay.
Another ground against the MeXi
can which DR.. Clark raises, is the be
lief that he would not make as good
a class of resident as the Portuguese
and Spaniards.

THINKS KAPPA DEAL SETTLED NOW

The Kapaa land lease agreement be-
tween the Territory and the Makee
Sugar Company, is at last settled. At
least it does not seem possible that
anything can happen now to break off
the negotiations, which have been
hanging fire during the past three or
four years.
According to Governor Frear, the
last details concerning the lease were
agreed to between himself and Senator
Fairchild two days ago, and since then
the matter has been in the hands of
Land Commissioner Judd to be en-
bodied in the form Of a lease and to be
prepared for advertising. This latter
feature should be ready in a day or
two, after the Chairman of the Board
of Land Commissioners has opportuni,
ty to give his approval,
"The principal trouble about this last
proposition" said the Governor, "Was
that that we did not know what part
of the lands were to be included in
the lease. After that was settled, some
two weeks ago when Senator Fairchild
called upon me, there have been only
minor matters of relatively dnimport

Kauai, at a nominal rental, for but

years. In return the plantation agrees
to build railroad, and make other

required for framing ordinances which
course some cities have very lengthy
and cumbersome laws on this subject,
but an ordinance which will require
the dealer to protect his products
from contamination by flies, dust and
promiscuous handling, is all that
should be needed. How this is accom-
plished should be left up to the deal
er, and authority should be given u
inspectors to enforce these re-
quirements. The only classification
which should be needed to be made,
would be between vegetables and
fruits which are never eaten without
first being thoroughly cooked, such as
taro, potatoes, etc., and those which
are generally eaten raw"

Legislature giving the Board of Health
power to prevent licenses of all kinds

These beetles hibernate in rubbish
