The letter of Kep. J. K, KaUookano, of Koliulft, iu the BuUvtin of Uie 25tU, tuucliiug "That Petitiou," is a further cx3utnbutiou, or rathar eonrirmation, of >rUat we kuow of the evils of eont»act labor The "Master .and Scrvants .\cf' ghonld be at onoe wiped from our statntea. It is surprising that.men who tuM.it of ltberty ao t tlie gl9rious birthjigbt of hnmanity irrespectĪTe of polei' ean, wlien tftelr owu greed is to be fed, tolerate and even advocate a system of slarery oiily a liOle more moderate than that of the Soutii thirty years ago. Eep. Kahookano hss not attempted to paint the systesi, fior indeed conld he as a foreigner *pe it. fo him it would largely a the lot and inh«ritauoe of the laualeea native. If Mr. Kahookano were to eiplain how tVa nativea got so deeply into debt he would inaumoe that in Kohala it r&ins sometinies for a veek at a tiuie; that dnring wet seasons ehen outdoor work is «u%pended Uie shipped eian di«ws iio j»y except as a dtbi. In justice to the KoUtda planters it shouldbe said that tlūs shipping and indebtednes is to one large plautation- the "Kohala."
