full time, and to be payable on de-

Plantation men consider the 8
hour feature as being very object
ionable, since it will reduce the
amount of work done by just so
much.
The allowance of bonus ou brok
en time will also be very detri
mental, as there will be very little
inducement for men to remain iu
one place. The outcome will be
that laborers will lead a nomadic
hand-to-mouth existence with no
thing to stimulate" them to thrift
and industry.
The wage demands of plantation
labor as preferred to the Planters'
meeting, are more reasonable than
we had reason to fear, and iu
themselves are not so bad. But
the riders attached thereto are
thoroughly vicious from the point
of view of both employer and em
ploye. . i&

lest assured that there has never
been the slightest idea of attribut
ing to your good people anything
more than the highest motives of
patriotism.
