LIFE ON THE HACIENDAS.
Ike Sweat MaiMcre el Cfc.sew io I'eru.
■ Los Akoeles, April 29, 18S1.
Suitor Hbhald: Aa a dell
gent reader of your valuable pa
per, I happened tbe otber day to
read a diapatcb from Peru, an
nouncing the killing by "Cbolos"
Of two thousand Chinamen, iv tbe
valley of Cafiete. Having been
employed on the plantation where
the massacre took place, and hav
ing had control of tbe deceased
Chinamen, It may be of great in
terest to the numerous readers of
yonr paper to have an idea of
life In Cafiete and its surroundings.
I shall therefore give a brief sketch
of the life of these Cboloa and Mon
golian slaves In that vicinity.
Cafiete is about one hundred and
seventy miles from Callao, tbe sea
port for Lima, and it is reaohed by
way of steamer. Tbe landing place
le Cerro-Azul, which means Blue
mountains. I must acknowledge
never to have been able to discover
anything blue about them. To de
scribe the passage on board these
steamers, would probably be very
amusing to tbe public, but as audi
st description must be complete, it
would fill several columns, and, as
a matter of course, not fit for a
newspaper correspondence. Let me
only say tbat tbe steamers above
mentioned are worthy tbe trans
portation of bogs, perhaps, but not
of human beings. Tbe scenes ou
tbe deck, wbere all passengers
alsep together, would give ample
material for a painter's pencil.
Tbe landing at Cerro-Azul Is by
means of almost naked negroes. A
passenger is placed on tbeir shoul
ders, woman or man alike, aud the
wading through the surf la effected
safsly, and on placing your foot on
terra flrma you are only wet to the
akin.
From tbis landing place com
mences the difficulty of transporta
tion. Travelers do not visit tbis
part of tbe country, therefore no
hotel coaches, us tho placo is cot
supplied with auy Grand Central
Hotel or a Cosmopolitan, All we
find is the agency and a shanty,
representing a Postoflice. A hono
hss to be procured, or if a learn of
oxen should be present, a passen
ger most then be happy to get out
of tbe place tbat affords no com
forts but plenty of mosquitoes, tbe
red hot son, and tbe deep, sandy,
uowalksble ground.
Tho firet place wo reach a.ter
leaving CerroAzul is "Pueblo
Visjo"—"old town." Theßimound
lngs of tbla place and the next
town, which I shall mention later,
consist partly of seven sugar plan
tations, belonging to an English
man by the name of Henry
8 way no. The most important of
these plantations are "Casa Blau
ea" (White House.) aud "Santa
Barbara." These plantations, or,
as tbey are called in Peru, "Ha
ciendas," are worked by China
men, each hacienda employing
from two hundred aud fifty to six
hundred. These Mongolians are
all slaves, serving a term of eight
years, aooordlng to contract, usual
ly signed by them without their
knowledge of what they algn.
Tbey are brought from Chiua,
usually on sailing vessels, aud sold
on board the vessels according to
tbeir quality.
The Pueblo Viejo, with three
thousand Inhabitants, furnishes no
labor for tbe plantation*. The
town !■ occupied by "Cholos," ami
pare negroes, but both are too lazy
to do any aort of work. The "Cho
lo" la a mixture of an Indian and a
Peruvian, or also a mixture of ne
groes and Peruvians. The worst
of these are tbe latter, who never
omit an opportunity to rob and
pillage. Whole bands of this olass
so mat lines ride tn the nearest
towns, take tbem by surprise and
plunder all the stores. I forgot to
met tlon that ths name Cholo la
also used as a pet name, just like
the American "darling."
Ths Governor of Pueblo Viejo Is
a Cholo, not exactly a darling, bnt
one who abuts his eyes to such ln
•ifniflcaat things ss robbery, but
be if, as a matter of course reward,
ed for his silence. It Is only in
Peru tbat government offlcials,
like some of their Qoveruors, are
so dishonest in tbeir offices. Such
things could not possibly happen
lo ths United Btates. The Cholo,
when used as Majordomo, or, aa we
call It, Inspector of the plsntation,
bas unlimited power, and oocupiss
tba day In flogging Chinamen.
Revolts oftsn occur, and If this
lospsotor Is overpowered he Is
Backed to ptsoss, tbs plsoss ao
■nail that tbsy wonld ssrvs for
PasaoM sausages. Sueb a revolt
happened during my stay on one of
tb* plantations. Tbe Chinamen
cannot be condemned for this ac
tion. By what I saw of tbeir
treatment I justify tbeir action.
From Pueblo Viejo we go further,
■ about live miles, and we reach
Cafiete, also oalied Pueblo Nuevo
' (New Town). The road to Cafiete
Is mentioned in the dispatch as
"the valley," but I do uot know
wbere the valley comes in. Tbe
road is open, with a few trees, but
with plenty of dust. Cafiete is
neater aud cleaner than Pueblo Vi
• Jo, and bas two barracks, one witb
about forty artillerymen and about
twenty-five infantry. What this
military is good for I know—good
for nothing. All useless men,
murderers, etc., are scut from Lima
to these barracks and serve as sol
diers as a punishment. In cases
of the plundering of villages by
the Cholos, these due companies of
soldiers are sent against them, and
It usually turns out that tbey join
In tbe plundering. During the
pillage of tbe town, during my
absence, my trunk,valise, ami even
my traveling bed, were -toleu.
The next day I found the soldiers
wearing my shirts. The Governor
of tbe place, of course, an honest
man, as tbe name Governor makes
It honest, returned my valise
empty—all tbat he could do (or me.
The snoozer himself was Implicat
ed in the robbery.
A little outside of Cauete is a
town called Imperial. Only ras
cals or, as we call them here, "des
perados," live there, unmolested
by tbe military. It was occe, on
tbe order of tbe government, burnt
down, but soon rose again. No of
fleer could pass through that town
without being well escorted,
and to make an arrest
there is an impossibility. Even
if a regiment should enter the
desperado can always escape, as
the bills are nearby. Oue officer
and twenty-five men once went in
pursuit of some robbers through
these hills, but never returned.
Thero are so many ways iv them
that they were lost and died of
thirst, as it never rains there and
consequently no water. Tbe plan
tations are, of course, supplied
witb irrigation, the water be
ing conducted from Iho mountain*,
where its rainß enough. When
tbe plantations were burned by the
Chileans on their way to Lima, the
Chinamen became free, and ma
rauders. They then plundered the
Cholos out of revenge, tho latter
having been checked by tbe Chile
an army. Now, where the Chileans
have withdrawn, tlie Cholos take
their revenge, and as the dispatch
indicates, Willi Interest. What
ever may bo the result of this mas
sacre, it is my opiuion that tbe
plantations cannot be woiked with
out the labor of Chinamen. Their
wages are about eight dollars a
month. The work they perform
cannot be done by others, as it Is
very bard, aud Cholos or negroes
are too lazy and independent to be
"commanded" to work by any
body. Wm. Habtvigson.
