The Planters' Labor & Supply Co.
held a further meeting yesterday, to
which for the first lime reporters
were admitted.
The minutes of the previous meet
ing were read and agreed to, and
reports of committees were called
for. None were forthcoming, and
the Chairman called on Mr. II. M.
Whitney to read the paper he had
prepared on the subject of Ucclpro
city. Mr. Whitney, having explained
that, owing to various circumstances
lie had not had the fullest access to
documents, &c, necessary for the
fullest treatment of the subject, then
load one of the ablest papers on the
subject luat it lias been our
fortune to come across.
The following brief outlines will in
dicate to our readers the purport of
it: Although the results of the
Treaty have been pecuniarily speak
ing more beneficial to llawaji than
to the United States, that is not to
be wondered at considering the im
mense difference in population ; still
the United States has reaped dcplo
liintic advantages of great value.
The population of Hawaii has in
creased from little over flO.OOO be
fore the Treaty to about 75,000 at
the end of 1882, and perhaps wdl
reach 1,000,00.
Not much attack was made on the
Treaty till the Autumn of 1881,
when several newspapers combined
and published statements of cruelty
which were almost wholly without
foundation, and generally made by
parties actuated by feelings of
revenge.
These charges of slavery arc
utterly false and without foundation,
(applause). The origin of the in
denture system was traced to 'the
shipment of natives in whaling
vessels, and the length of contract
and amount of work performed
monthly, (20 days of 0 hours each)
alluded to. Fully ouc-fourih of the
laborers in the islands are engaged
by the month only, and more than
half have renewed their contracts
which shows whether the system is
good or not. Labor laws here arc
modelled on those of New York
State, and if anything better than
there. Many of the laborers have
plots of land and deposit accounts
with their employers, and on the
whole the condition of laborers is as
good hero as in any country in the
world. All dilliculties between
laborer and cmplyer are settled by
law, and the higher Judiciary hoi'o
arc renowned for their character and
ability, but most of the trouble may
bo traced lo the inferior character
of the native magistrates, and under
the new law we shall probably have
worse ones than the old, (ap
plause). Then followed statistics
of the number of plantations,
amount of crop, &e. (The esti
mated crop for this year is fG,0()(
tons). The author concluded with
an Kloqiieut appeal to tho United
States' Government to maintain the
Treaty.
A hearty vole of thanks was
tendered to Mr. Whitney, and the
report was referred to the Trustees.
(1'robably 5,000 copies will be
printed and circulated in America
and elsewhere.) The report of the
Committee on labor was circulated
and a short discussion followed.
The meeting was adjourned at 12
M. tO 2 l'.Jt.

ried out now systematically. Our

The plantations will commence
grinding shortly. The Kekaha plan
tation will be ready about the first
of November. The Klcele has mado
a dual shipment of 2,000 lings and
will start in two weeks. The Koloa
plantation will start about the same
time, and Lihue and llauamaulu
about a week later. Kapaa and Kc
alia are selling new boilers and re
pairing and will not be ready to start
for a month. J. he kuauca planta
tion will bo ready the first week in
November, and the l'rinccvillc a
month later. At l'rinccvillc they
arc now very busj planting on the
low lands.
The Chinese rice-planters have
been so prosperous that several of
them have gone down to Honolulu
to have a good tune one of them
raised at least 2,000 tons tins-year.
The whole amount of cane planted
is larger than in any former year, and
large crop are expected everywhere;
on the Kekaha, Klcele, Koloa,
Lihue, Hanamauht, Makeo Sugar
Co., ICcalia. and l'rinccvillc planta
tions, the cane looks extremely well.
The I'rinccvillo plantation will take
off this coining year the largest crop
since its foundation in 18G1.
The roads are in rather a misera
ble condition at present. The
bridges are rotten and in many cases
unsafe. Nothing has been done yet
by tho new Supervisor, owing to
want of money and his immediate
predecessor didn't attend ' to tho
wants of tho district. His Ex. Mr.
Uush is expected to visit Waialtia
and llanalei nvcrs, to personally
inspect and decide on the most
suitable sites for bridges to be built.
Correct After All.
(Communicated.)
On the 8th of September a fotir
mastcd vessel was reported from the
outer station as passing the port, a
couple of hours after Messrs. J. AV.
liobcrlson & Co. announced on their
blackboard that it was the ship
" Euphrates, " from New Castle,
bound to San Francisco. Tho next
morning the daily papers had the
following items. The Daily IJci.u:
tin of Sept. 0th, says :
"Messrs. .!. W. Robertson it Co. re.
port thai the four-imistcd vessel which
passed the port yesterday, was the Rri.
tlsh ship "EuphrntcV' Cnpt. Cameron,
37 days out from New Castle, N.B.W.,
bound to Sim Francisco, with a cargo of
:),01) tons of coal."
The Daily Advertiser of Sept.
9th, says:
"A large four-mnstcd vessel, from the
south'rd, passed this port yesterday. She.
was reported by special tcloginm'as the
Euphrates, .'I (lays from New Castle, N.
S. W., hound to San Francisco. By
carrier pigeon, however, wo Had that her
number was not made out correctly.
The report should have been the None
Such, Captain Shavt'-the-Wind, 21 hours
from Xo.-Wan's Land, bound to Tom
Tiddler's ground, with a full cargo of
copper-bottom cd post-holes. All well on
board."
In a S. F. paper of Oct. -1th, by
yesterday's mail, the arrival of the
ship "Euphrates," dipt. Cameron,
is reported at that port 01 days from
Now Castle. In his- memoranda the
Captain reports as having sighted
the Island of Hawaii on Sept. lith,
and on the 8th passed Honolulu,
distant 1-1 miles.
Messrs. J. W. llobcrtson & Co.'s
shipping reports are pretty reliable.
Wi: hold over much interesting
matter.
A ;oM.Mirri:i: of !) will wait on His
Majesty this morning and lay the
views of the Planters before him.
It is the intention of the Kxccu
tive Committee to make His Maj
esty's coming birthday a memorable
occasion.. They have decided on
having 2 barge races, U six-oar
races, 1 four-oar, 1 double scull, 1
single-scull, 1 canoe, and 2 sailing
races, besides swimming and tub
races. Altogether thoy have ar
ranged lo distribute about $1,100 in
prizes, of which about half has been
already subscribed.
A di-.cision has been arrived at in
the U. S. District Court, San Fran
cisco, by .Judge Field, that Chinese
merchants from places other thau
China can come to San Francisco
without hindrance. A lest case has
been made in the matter of Low
Yum Chow, who oamo'to San Fran
cisco from Panama, and the nhovo
decision was rendered by the Judge.
Yvc ijuolo the following eiuuug of
tiie decision: " We arc of opinion
that the section requiring a certifi
cate for Chinese merchants coming
to the United Stales, does not apply
to those who resided out of China
on the passage of the Act of Con
gress, and that proof of their occu
pation may be made by parole."
Mn. C. E. Williams sent a native
man with dump cart out on Punch
bowl street. On the start home yes
terday, the horse was frighten
ed by a dog and cat running under
its heels, while the man was employ
ed putting up the bars of the in-
ciosurc. it ran nway aim the man
jumped on the cart and seized the
reins. Somehow he slipped and fell
between the wheel and the cart, and
was dragged a little way, bruising
his legs badly. The horse ran along
llerctania street, down Uichard
street and turning the corner of
Hotel street lipped the cart up and
itself over. Here two men who were
painting the Hotel fence came up
and secured it. A white man then
came alone and nroeccded to lake
the horse and cart to its owner, but
m a little while lie too was thrown
out, and we hear lie was badly'hurt.
Tlin liorsn tlinn mil nlnncr lo Mr. f !.

though many carriages were in'fils
road it ran into none of them. The
cart and harness are injured, but the
horse is all riuht.
