He finds also that general conditions of labor in the islands arc as favorable as those found in any large employ ing industry elsewhere in the states. He speaks also of the hours of labor, comforts for the workmen, the con tract cultivation system, wages and cost of living. A chapter is devoted also to a comparison of labor conditions in California, Texas, Louisiana, Cuba and Porto Rico with Hawaii. Some attention is paid also to the minor industries and also to the trades in the city. The latter, the report says, is no different from that of any city in the United States. Relations between employer and employees are said to be generally amicable and the schools are also highly complimented, "differing in no essential respect from those of our more progressive states." "For an American having definite employment in view" says the com missioner "Hawaii offers a pleasant and satisfactory place to mqke a home. For immigrants with small capital there are public lands and agricultural opportunities equal to those in many other portous of the Union." Social conditions are not so pleasant, however, and it is advised that experiments shouid be by colonies large enough to make their own social Mirrouudiugs. The report concludes: "If the coffee industry could be madeprofU- able, the success of small farming in Hawaii would be assured. Be fore it had been demonstrated that the product of the Hawaiian plan ters could not compete with the inferior and cheaper coffees of Brazil in the American raatket, and while there was home protec tion, this industry attracted many young Americans and Englishmen' to the islands and extended rapidly among the Portuguese home steaders. The method of accom plishing this extension of coffee culture desired by many local interests is to devote a portion of the local customs revenues to a bounty upon high-grade coffees raised exclusively by white labor in Hawaii. From the Hawaiian point of view, the islands would simply be paying for the privilege of supplying American consumers with a higher grade coffee than they use at present, the insular customs revenues would themselves be increased by the addition to the permanent Caucasian population that would follow this action, and such legislation would be a step toward creating the home supply of plantation labor which must be called into existence before the most pressing social and economic problems of the Territory are solved or its political destiny under the American flag determined." Report on Sisal. Honolulu, June 12. A. H. Tur ner, manager of the Hawaiian Fibre Co., has received a personal letter which affords him great satis faction from A. N. Peach, superin tendent of the Tubbs Cordage Co., San Francisco. The writer says: "We have received the fibre all right. I have not made a report as to the quality of the fibre before, as I wished to see more of it. We have worked up most all of it now and I will say that the fibre is the finest I have ever seen. The eight bales of 'black' mark is very su perior fibre. The 59 bales no mark is also a very fine .sisal, very well cleaned and put up in excellent condition. The 33 bales of short fibre 'red' mark is a good fibre, well cleaned but rather short. We worked it up all right, but it does not make as good a product as the long fibre." The last-mentioned fibre reported as passable, it may be stated, rep resents a saving from what had formerly been waste. Mr. Peach has sent Mr. Turner several sizes of rope samples made from Ha waiian fibre. As the loregoiug good report is upon the first crop, which is never the best, of the Ha waiiau Fibre Co., it is, all the more promising for the future of the industry. Formal Announcement or Kli'Uitlou of l'ro-Vlcnr Llliprt. Honolulu, June 12. Libert, Bishop of Zuegma, Vicar Apostolic of the Hawaiian Islands, is now the title of the local head of the Catholic church in the Territory. The formal announcement of his election to the episcopacy, in the shape of the letters from the Vati cau, were received by Bishop I.ibert in the mail in the Coptic. The see from which the Bishop takes his title is one of the unoccu pied sees of Asia, it having been filled most recently by Archbishop Farley of New York, when he was coadjutor to Archbishop Corrigan of that city. Since his elevation the see has been vacant and its se lection as the place to be given to the local dignitary of the Church, was made after due consideration of the rank and title of the holder. When Bishop Libert will be con secrated or where, has not been settled. He may go to San Fran cisco or may select any other Am erican see in which to take his or ders. There will not be any chance that a dignitary of the church could come here, and when the new offi cial will go to the mainland is still a question. Kalkaska, Mich., June n.
