Spc keT Hoist in last Wedlies-'
!.iy iiitrndured the fnllowing resn
'ntions in the House of Ripresen
'i'! ives:
"Wlnreas, there is a large num
ber of homesteaders a n d small
farmers in the Territory of Haw; ii
"ngaged in the raiding of sugar
for sale to the sugar mill cor
virations of the Territory; and
"Whereas, the success and pros
peril y of the said homesteaders ntnl
small faimcrs depend entirely up
on the price paid for sunr cane
by the said mill corporations; ami
"Whereas, complaints are made
by the said homesteader: and smali
tanners that the prier paid for sug
ar cane by the said sugar mill cor
porations is not an adequate one,
and results in an unfair division of
the profits of their labor and enter
prise, the said sugar mill corpora
tions paying such a small price for
the said sugar cane to the said
homesteaders and small fanners
that, at the average price of raw
sugar, the price so paid for sugar
cane barely, if at all, covers the
cost of production; and
"Whereas, the sid Sugar Mill
corporations claim that thev are
p. tying a fair and just price for the
srid sugar cane so purchased from
the homesteaders and small fann
ers; and
"Whereas, the building up of a
prosperous citizen farmer popula
tion in this territory depends al
most entirely upon the successful
prosecution of the cane . industry
0'i the t art of said homesteaders
and small tarmeis ; nd upon their
contractual relations with the said
sugar mill corporations;
Now, therefore, be it resolved,
that the legislature of the Territory
of Hawaii doth hereby recommend
to ar.d petition the Congress of the
United States to appoint, and the
President of the United States to
approve of the appointment of a
commission foi the purpose of ex
amining into and investigating the
contractual relations between the
said homesteaders and small farm
ers and the said sugar mill corpor
ations, and more particularly into
the cost of production of sugar
cane by the said homesteaders and
small farmers as compared with
the cost of production by the large
sugar plantations, with a view to
wards determining a just and equit
able scale of price to be paid lothe
homesteaders and small farmers
based upon the market price of raw
sugar, and for the further purpose
of making such recommendations
to Congress, based upon the evi
dence adduced by such examina
tion and investigation, as the cir
cumstance may in the opinion of
the commission so appointed, seem
to warrant; and be it further.,
"Resolved that copies of this
concurrent resolution be forwarded
toth; president of the United States,
the president o f ihe senate, the
peaker of the house of representa
tives, and of the chairmen of the
comnrttees on territory of the sen
ate and house of representatives."
