GOOD RUSSIANS

Board of immigration Draws
Line On Man Who Doesn't
Work After Getting Here.

Russian laborers who are actually
employed In plantation work are at
liberty to open negotiations through
the Territorial Board of Immigration
to get friends or relatives here from
their mother country. But as for the
Russians who are around Honolulu
nothing doing.
The board is beginning to carry
out plan which has been considered
for sometime as a means of getting
desirable Russian immigrants. The
immigrants who went to work here
on the plantations In a bona-fide matt
ner will be invited to write home for
their friends there, or the board will
do 1t for them but the Russian who
stayed In the city will have to be his
own ready letter-writer and will get
little aid from the board.
The reason for this Is simply that
the Board believes and the employers
believe there Is no use bringing more
Russians here to live around the city

Unable as yet to secure site on the

The board has had the preliminary
plans for the station under way for
some time, but so far can not find n

not been as rapid as the Common
wealth would like, therefore the prop
osition to prepare the way for new
stretches which up to the present,
have never been cleared by the axe
or turned by the pillow.
The scheme is for the State to lay
out ten tracts, of forty acres each and
prepare ten acres in each tract for
crops. This will give the settler a
chance to start on even terms, which
is not the case when he has to clear
the land and go through the difficult
task of breaking up virgin soil.
Minnesota will, of course, charge
the purchaser for the work done be-
fore his arrival and also for the land.
The Scheme is intended to be eXper-
mental, and, though new to Mime
sofa. has been tried elsewhere with
success. 1t is on some such lines that
demonstrating in Hawaii can be made
successful.
