THE CONTRACT LABOR CIRCULAR.
The circular issued by the Minister
of the Interior, addressed to the em
ployers of contract labor, is a timely
and well-considered public document.
Labor immigration has arrived at
that stage when it has become neces
sary to define, with the utmost clear
ness, the rights and obligations of
contract labor in this Kingdom.
There has been a prevalent idea that
when the Government assigns labor
immigrants to a plantation its con
nection with them is at an end, and
that thenceafter they are at the abso
lute direction of their employers, sub
ject to payment of wages and other
specific dues. This is a very serious
mistake, as His Excellency Mr.
Gulick points out. The employer is
simply the agent of the Government
for a specific purpose, and it is thu
duty of the Government to see that
contract laborers suffer no injustice
at the hands of. overseers, but that
they are well and kindly treated.
This point is very explicitly made in
the circular referred to, and we hope
that it will be understood and acted
upon in a spirit of intelligent appre
ciation of its purpose and scope by all
employers of this class of labor.
As a rule, there has been little to
complain of on the part of contract
laborers oa these Islands. Their per
sonal welfare has been cared for, and
they have been made as comfortable
as circumstances in most cases would
admit of. Nevertheless, there were
exceptions; and it is these exceptional
cases which render it necessary to en
force a general rule that otherwise
might have been safely left in its ap
plication to the discretion and
good sense of the employers them
selves. But the Government is
bound to keep faith, not only with
the contract laborers themselves,
but with the Governments through
whose acquiescence and consent their
services were obtained, and therefore
it has become imperative to show,
once for all, that no arbitrary or un
just treatment will be tolerated.
This, as we understand it, is the
purpose and policy of the circular.
It is in no sense a reflection upon the
great body of planters and other em
ployers of labor in the country, nor
indeed does it reflect upon anyone.
Personal violence, except in self-defense,
is absolutely prohibited; and
the arrest of a laborer for violating
his agreement is forbidden, .except
upon the report of the Commission
of Inspection of contract labor. The
creation of a Special Commission of
Inspection for Japanese laborers, and
another similar Commission for
Portuguese laborers and others,
appears to us to be a practical
and necessary measure. The.ve
Commissions will hear all com
plaints of employers and laborers,
and will adjust each case amicably
if possible.. The Minister of tin
Interior anticipates that there will be
little or no necessity for any official
Intervention on the part of foreign
representatives after these Commis
sions of Inspection have been at
work, and we are of the same opinion.
It rests mainly with employers to
make these arrangements successful,
as the Minister of the Interior re
marks, and from the intelligence and
high character of the planters as a
body, we feel confident that they will
make a cordial response to His Ex
cellency's appeal to their sense of
justice and honor. . This, doubtless,
will be the conclusion arrived at by
the Planters Labor and Supply Com
pany at its adjourned meeting on the
19th instant.
LAND FOR THE PEOPLE.
Visit to Mr. Jas. Campbell's
Honouliuli Ranch.
A Fine Agricultural and Pastoral
District.
Our thanks are due to the proprie
tnrfi of the San Francisco "Bulletin"
for affording us facilities for present
ing our subscribers with full particu
lars regarding the last hours of Gen
eral Grant's life, and the preparations
for his funeral, a few hours after the
arrival of the Mariposa. Through an
oversight this act of generous courtesy
Wm not mentioned by us sooner.
There are not a few residents of Hono
lulu whose knowledge of the agricultural
resources of this Island is confined to the
measure of their observation during an
occasional run to V"aikiki. It may sur
prise these t?ople to be told that there
is a wide valley of fertile land, much of it
fit for the plow, lying between the Nuu
anu range and the Waianae Mountains
and thence to the coast at "Waialua. It
is quite true that this land as yet pro
ducer next to nothing. It feeds herds of
cattle, but owing to the thriftless system
of stock raising generally in vogue there
is not one fat steer where there might be
ten. Indeed, it is not too much to say
that in some sections of this valley goats
contest successfully with cattle for the
supremacy. It is claimed for these de
structive little animals that they are a
positive benefit to the land owners or
tenants, most of the soil being leasehold,
because they kill the mimosa scrub,
which otherwise would overrun the
country and destroy the pasturage. There
may be something in this, although one
would think that some other plan for
accomplishing that end might be adopted
than giving free run to immense flocks of
goats.
A good deal of fencing has been done
along the line of the "Waialua road for a
considerable distance out of the city, but
there does not appear to be any attempt
made to increase the natural supply of
feed by cultivating sown or artificial
grasses. As the live stock appears to be
in fair condition this fact speaks volumes
for the nutritious qualities of the native
grasses and forage plants, as well as for
the genial climate, which tends so ma
terially to the development of animal life
in this country.
In marked contrast to this general ap
pearance of unthrift is the progress made
by Chinamen in the reclamation of
swamp land and its conversion into
ricefields. Anyone traveling along the
very excellent highway in question must
be forcibly struck with the intelligent
and persistent industry of the Chinese
eneraired in rice crowinsr. A tithe of the
same application and intelligent skill in
agricultural methods applied to the great
body of the land in question would con
vert it into meadow and grain fields,
yielding big returns and supporting a
much larger population that there is at
nresent in the- country. As the land
now planted in rice was utterly Worth
less a few years' ago, and has been
wholly reclaimed by Cliinese labor and
capital, one might be apt to think that it
is held upon very easy terms as to rental
The contrary is the fact, however. The
Chinese pay a very high rent on short
leases, and have the outlook of paying
considerably more rent if they seek a
renewal. There must be a good deal of
profit in the business, however, as rice
land is everywhere in demand, and no
rent asked seems to frighten these un
tiring and thrifty workers. Mr. Mark
Robinson, it should be mentioned here,
has spent a large sum in building a
irrigating flume over the gorge of the
Waipahu stream at Ulaleua. It is really
a very creditable piece of work, and is
capable of supplying water in a dry sea
son for irrigating Mr. Robinson's ex
tensive banana plantation, in which
there are now some fifty acres in bear
ing. These remarks are suggested from
observations made by a representative of
the Advertiser, who accompanied Mr.
B. F. Dillingham, Professor Scott, and
representatives from the other local
newspapers, on a land . exploring expe
dition last Monday. The destination of
the party was Mr. James Campbell's
Honouliuli ranch on the eastern slope of
the Waianae mountains. The party was
well mounted, and made the hospitable
home place of Mr. Campbell on the
western lagoon or -arm of Pearl harbor
towards evening, where they were met
and hospitably entertained by Mr. Cecil
Brown in the old Coney place. This is the
favorite country residence of Mr.
Campbell.
The Honouliuli ranch, contains 42,000
acre.-, of which, speaking generally and
judging by the eye, about 10,000 acres
adapted for agriculture are between the
foothills and the lower boundary line.
There are also about 7,000 acres of level
bottom land lying at the southeast end
of the -Waianae mountains, suitable for
either cane or rice, if water can be put
upon it in sufficient quantity, but which,
in its present condition, is well adapted
for mixed husbandry or grazing. The
balance of the ranch is mountainous, or
running out towards the harbor and coast
line in a flat coral plain, covered with
scant verdure, upon which, however, "the
stock get uncommonly fat. Indeed, this
coral pasture, if it may bo so termed, is
the fattening paddock for the entire
ranch, as well as for Mr. Campbell's
Kahuku stock breeding ranch of 32,000
acres.
The soil is a deep reddish loam up to
the top of the highest peaks, and cn.the
occasion of this visit it was well grassed
everywhere. Indeed, although all the
cattle were in prime condition there did
not seem to be any lack of pasture, and
if such a season as the present one could
be counted on, Honouliuli ranch would
easily carry double the present stock,
which wasstated to be 5,500 head of
cattle, besides a band of j horses ana
mules. There is also on the Kahuku
ranch some 3,500 head of cattle, together
with horse stock.
The question of water is necessarily an
important one, and conflicting opinions
have been expressed regarding the avail
ability of the water supply on Honouliuli
ranch in a dry season. A careful 'exam
ination of the sources of . supply in the
mountains, and the construction of dams
or reservoirs at convenient points in the
ravines, wnicn couia ne maae at inning
cost, owing to the formation of the coun
try, would store abundance of water for
all purposes, however dry the season ;
and, indeed, should the project of small
farm settlement be inaugurated, this is
one of those necessary works which must
be undertaken. Springs appear to be
abundant and there are several streams,
while unmistakable evidence of under
ground water was visible to the experi
enced eye in various places. Wells have
been sunk at various elevations to test
the water reserve. One of these wells is
at an elevation of about 400 feet above
sea level. A windmill, by Byron Jack
son, of California, imiorted by Mr. Dill
ingham, has been erected, and although
the well is only fifty feet deep, and about
thirty feet to water, this windmill pumps
sufficient water for all the stock pastur
ing in the neighborhood. At an eleva
tion of about 700 feet above sea level
flowing well has been opened, the stream
from which runs down to the Robinson
ranch, several miles distant. On the
flat, near the homestead already spoken
of, there is an artesian well which has
had a steady flow of 2,400 gallons per
hour for years past. Considering the
immense watershed, and that the most
of the drainage of the Waianae mountains
from the divide along to the Waianae
pali necessarily passes through the Hon
ouliuli ranch, there should be no diffi
culty in procuring an abundant supply of
water for all purposes of agriculture. The
mountain summits are covered with rank
grasses, and Spanish clover appeared in
patches ; but the sheltered slopes have a
good deal of growing timber, and among
it a few trees of sandal wood.
There is evidence on all sides that this
ranch was once the home of a consider
able native population. Old tei-a patches
abound in the little valleys along the
margin of streams, and large quantities
of potatoes were raised on the dry land.
Small-pox carried off the bulk of these
people, according to an intelligent half
white who is employed as luna on the
estate. Tliere is no reason, therefore,
why the same land should not, under
different conditions, support a large resi
dent white population.
Honouliuli ranch was owned by Keka
nonohi, a high chiefess, who died and
devised it to her husband, Haalelea.
On his death it went to his second wife,
who sold it to Mr. J. II. Coney, from
whom Mr. James Campbell ' bought it
eight years ago for $95,000. At that
time the ranch was greatly overstocked,
and it was imperative to give it a rest.
Accordingly Mr. Campbell set about
fencing the outer boundary where
nature did not provide a sufficient bar
rier, as it does in the water frontage and
the impassible precipice along the divide
in the Waianae mountains, which forms
the boundary line of the ranch upon that
side. Thirty miles of fencing in all
were built, of which twenty miles are of
five feet 5-wire fence, and ten miles are
of batten fence. When this work was
finished, Mr. Campbell notified all own
ers of cattle to remove their stock. A
careful record was kept of this mustering
and removal of stock, and 32,347 head of
branded cattle were driven off. The
ranch was then left to recover for a year,
and- the year following a small herd was
introduced from the Kahuku ranch, the
numbers being gradually increased until
its present condition. Mr. Campbell
slaughters on an average six head of fat
' C5 - - - w
csittle ner dav. to suoplv the Honolulu
ml r "
market with beef. The price per carcass
is from $30 to $35. As already ex
plained, this meat output could be large
ly increased, as there is always the Cali
fornia market available, dressed meat
being admitted duty free. Indeed, a
large cattle owner in this city is said to
have received an offer from the Coast for
a regular monthly shipment of 250 car
casses of beef and 1,000 sheep, but was
unable to fill the order. Transportation
in refrigerating chambers, however, will
be available when a surplus beef pro
duct has been created for export.
The ubiquitous Chinaman has taken
hold of the rice lands in this neighbor
hood also, there being some 200 acres of
rice at present, of which about 90 acres
belong to Mr. Campbell, and are rented
at $15 per acre on short leases ; $25 an acre
yearly has been agreed upon in one in
stance for a renewal of the lease, and all
other leases are to be renewed on the
same terms. The right of fishing in the"
western lagoon of Pearl liarbor is also
leased by the owner, Mr. Campbell; and
a lime quarry pays a rent and royalty. It
is needless to say that the property is
economically administered, and -with
excellent results.
The climate is delightful, and the
view from many points on the side
hills is very fine. The pali on the -western
divide far excels Nuuanu pali in
grandeur. Pearl harbor is accessible to
vessels of light draft, but once inside the
water is deep and bold up to the coral
ledges, which form a continuous natural
landing for many miles. Reference to a
chart of the harbor will doubtless settle
this point.
To sum up all, without going into
tedious details, Honouliuli ranch alone
is calculated to provide homes for a
large number of families engaged in
agricultural and pastoral pursuits. The
soil is rich, deep and fertile ; the climate
genial and enjoyable, and the possibil
ities encouraging. But it is now close
held by one individual, and if it
is to be segregated and put into
the market as a small . farm set
tlement, it must be by a company
formed for that purpose. - This is a busi
ness detail, however, which is not perti
nent in this place. It is, however, to be
hoped that not only will Honouliuli and
Kahuku ranches be cut up into small
farms and thrown open to bona fide set
tlement, but that Other large estates in
this and the neighboring Islands may be
similarly dealt with. Were this to
happen the progress and development of
the Kingdom would be assured.

This well-known Trottin Stallion is now standing at the comer of PnocbUwl ij
Queen streets, and breeders, horsemen and stock-owners should take aJrsnUgttfu,
opportunity to obtain his blood while they have the chance. He it now
feeling nearly as well as he ever did in his life, and moves as lively and his eje it u briU,
and he is as vigorous as a four-year-old horse.
It does not require a great horseman to discover grtat point of excelling j
VENTURE. The ordinary citizen, upon beholding him, will be ioiprewed ianejiiuh
with his grand make-up, magnificent length, and elegant finish. 1 h u nut the ffrtw
horse that ever came to this coiiu try, he-ia turei.V uud of the yreattkt, andaiaurfM.
former, he towers as far above them all as he dots above a ttuckling eui; iuiutu.
A great deal of importance has lately been attached to the vIut of a burntl
being kept for stock purposes, whether he is standard or not, and the PriiJtnt ti ik
National Association of Trotting Uorse Breeders iu America vtrougly adrisei povi in
to patronize stallions that are not standard bred, and he abo adribs them UmIkIm
not only standard bred, but if possible one that is standard by his own perfuntu
which is a public record of 2:00, or better, and even more than thin by tbe ptifuraut
of his get also. Now, if thi rule was rigidly applied, it would exclude all tick pu
horses as Electioneer and the sires of Maud S. and Jay Eye See, etc., tor while tbej an
become greatly renowned by the performances of their get, they never ten turf pe
formers themselves.'
Now, we will see, for curiosity, how near VENTURE conies to pojeniiaff tbtit
qualifications, namely : Breeding, performances and performances of hu.gtt.
As to breeding, he is the peer of any horse on earth, and I don't except tin pa
Hermit, who is the most popular stallion in England, and whose service fee k
being the sire of three Derby winners.
As to his own performances, he meets the requirement:), having a public record ti
2:274 2:30 being the standard of admission.
His get are now just beginning to be appreciated in California, oue of vtid
(Veageance) won a good race quite lately Jin Sacramento, in straight ieatu, niuit; i
record of 2:34, and is said to be able to trot close to 2:20, when called upon teduw.
With these facts before us, VENTURE looms up as one of the grektwt LomiU
only on this but in any other country, and the day is past when people will bncduv
thing but the very best; and while the death of two such great horses at Boiwtll d
Bazaar is greatly deplored bv all true horsemen, still it is a great consolation that tlr
is so good a horse as VENTTRE to till their place.
VENTURE is an aged horse, but he is one year younger than Dictator, ttow
sold only last year in Kentucky for $251000, on the strength of his being tbi tin ( h
Eye See. His stud fee is $300. He is also ten years younger than VolnnUer (sirs of at.

TURE is not as desirable a horse to breed from as any of them, or why It in
worthy of the patrenage of the public Below I will give his pedigree, of wbicblW
