FRIDAY
JANUARY 5,
1912
Lot us continue, in spite of all, to act, to love and to hope
as though we had to do w th ui ideal of humanity. This
ide.il is only a vastei reality than that which wo behold, The
fdiliiu'S of individuals no not e impair the general puiitj and
innocence than the waves on tlio suiface ,according to the
aeronauts, when seen fiom a certain height, tiuublc 'lie pio

THE NEW PLANTATION WAGE.
More significant and more gratifying than the news of all
the extra dividends is the announcement from the Hawaiian
Planteis' Association ot the adoption of a new wage scale
for the laborers of the sugar plantations.
At first sight the reader will probably size up this latest
move as a profit-sharing proposition. It is more than that.
It means that the laborers will get an increased pay depend
ing on the price of sugar, whether the plantation on which
they are employed in making a profit on its enterprise or not.
Briefly stated this wage scale assures the working man in
the field a share in the advantages of an advancing market,
and the percentage of wage dividend Is a good one.
This proves that the leaders of the sugar industry have
not been unmindful of the interests of the laborers, though
they have made no great amount of noise concerning their
deliberations.
The scheme now presented looks easy. But anyone with
experience in this sort of thing knows that a tremendous
amount of study is necessary to develop a scheme that is
theoretically correct, fair to the laborer and WORKABLE. So
we must credit the Planters' Labor Bureau and members of
the Association with having studied this question for months
and that during all this period of prosperity they have had the
laborer very much in mind.
The Bulletin can imagine various lines of criticism
that may be launched at this move ,but it will not tome from
men who have had experience in honest and practical ef
forts to adjust the differing ideas and interests of employers
with the divergent ideas and interests of the employed.
This action of the planters' Association represents abso
lute good faith in dealing with the interests of the workmen
on the plantations, and getting closer to practical coopera
tion between the employer and the employe.
At the present time the percentage of day laborers on the
sugar plantations is comparatively small. Much of the work
is done under contract. But the contracts are based on the
rate of day wage, so there is no doubt of all plantation work
ers profiting.
