money in the world can buy. Satisfac-
tion. The attainment of an object, the
bringing nearer of the time when the
Anglo-Saxon and the Teuton of the
United States will realize that the
white man of northern ATTITUDES can
work here in the open air of Hawaii,
the convincing of the people that the
American sugar planter in Hawaii does
want the white man here, and will help
to bring him to the land where the
white man, the yellow and the brown
work side by side without race preju-
dice or hatred. Hawaii is going to be
the dollhouse of America for fruits and
other products. If the tariff is ever
taken off sugar let us be prepared to
use the land for some other useful crop.
If it is not, let us remember that after
the next great industrial eonvulsion in
the United States we shall be able to
get all the white labor we wish at
wage not much in advance of that paid
on the plantations today, and in time
these white men will make it worth
while to the big interests to cut up the
large estates so that both may benefit
These things can be brought about
naturally and peacefully, to the benefit
of all. That is worth working for.

better to work with them and have
them work with us than to shun them
and have them work against us. They
are as human as we are. We don't get
near enough to our yellow brothers here
to know them, and we won't let them
get near enough to us to know us. But
all that is changing and we are going
to all pull together for Hawaii.
