interest thereon. 5 ' :,; - '
INCOME One half of the netriricomeTreceived from the property held in trustTf or these

INTEREST The interest on these certificates commenced May 1, 1908, payable semi-annually
and is guaranteed absolutely, under a trusteeship. ' '
INCREASE VALUE The increase value of Portland Business Real Estate has been
steady and' healthy arid easily justifiable. Within the last few years the eastern money inter
ests have fully realized the many- and wonderful resources of Oregon, among which are its
agricultural lands, its timber and its .water-powers, all needing development and exploitation.
These resources must all pay tribute to Pprtland, and it is easy to reason why Portland bus
iness property has within the past five years, increased from 175 to 400 per cent and it is safe
to predict that the next five or ten years will see even a greater increase. '
DIVIDENDS The property purchased and held for these certificates will be so held under
trusteeship for ten years and then sold. The certificate holders will receive in addition to the
face of their certificates, and the interest and income paid on them, one half of the increased
valuation of the property, being the difference between the purchase price and the selling
price of the property, which can easily be estimated between 200 per cent and 300 per cent,
for every reason gives evidence that Portland should have between 500,000 and 600,000 pop
ulation within the next ten years. 1
CONFIDENCE This investment must appeal to all who have confidence in Portland, and
all living in this beautiful and glorious Pacific northwest country must know that Portland
is'destined to be its financial and social center.
DENOMINATIONS These certificates are issued in denominations of from $25 upwards,
allowing the small investor the same privilege of profit sharing and an equal advantage of
the largefand assured advances of Business Real Estate, as is enjoyed by the man of great
wealth, - Remember, the interest commenced May 1908 and is now accruing.

LABOR CONDITIONS IN HAWAII
BY FREDERIC J. HAS KIN.
(Copyright, 1908, by Frederio J. Hfcakin.)
Honolulu. Apr. 29 In Hawaii the labor question is ever present, ever
paramount and never settled. One fourth of the total population outmost asmuch more, in irago rUn la
the territory is made up of laborers actually employed in the cane
fields. Of these more than one half are Japanese and Chinese; in oilier
words, rion-cltizen and non-assimilable. Sugar demands cheap labor.
Hawaii lives on sugar and unless it has a permanent supply of remark
ably cheap labor it faces ruin. Before annexation to the United States
the government and the planters, sometimes acting jointly and some
times acting separately, brought in laborers from various parts of the
world ander the contract system. When the United States flag perma
nently floated over the islands, and American laws .applied to Ha
waiian affairs, contract labor was without the pale of law. .
a Japanese, $112 for a Portuguese and
$130. for a Norwegian. Aa the Euro
peans always came In largr families,
and as the Japanese usually nam aln-
Jly, it was much cheaper to bring in
apanese. After the days of contract
labor, when the Japanese came on their
own aocord, the steamer fare dropped
aa tow aa 130. In the jive years prior
to 1886 the Hawaiian monarchy ex
pended over II. 000,000, and the planters
The leading men of Hawaii then
turned toward Europe as a source of
labor supply. It was thought the aouth
of Europe would furnish hardy labor-
era perfectly willing to work for wagea
which the planters could afford. Being
ChristlaQs and Europeans, they would
naturally be In sympathy with Ameri
can Institutions and Ideals, and would
brine forth a second generation of real
Americana Under the plan adopted by
the states of South Carolina and Louis
iana, the planters contributed sums of
money to a iuna, ana oy mi aumomy
of the legislature sent an agent to Eu
rope. He sucoeeded In obtaining two
shipload oi immigrants, one or rortu
guese and one of Spanish. Then fell the
blow from the federal government at
Washington in the form of a decision
that immigration stimulated in this
fashion was 4Uegal and must cease.

lack of labor supply. The million and
millions of men and women who have
'come to American shores from Europe
in the past 60 years have all found
homes north of the Mason and Dixon
line, or west of the Mississippi: The
southern states were stagnated on ac
count of the devastation of the war
wnen the great tide or immigration h.
gan, and it is only within the past
even or elarht years that the aouth has
begun to feel the need of new white
blood. The south is like Hawaii, in
that it neetla this immigration but can
not get it. While the north is clanv
orlng for regulation which will place
further restriction upon the influx of
immigration, the south is crying for a
rtuiei liora uoor lomine.
Appeal to Congress.
South Carolina sought to solve the
proDiem oy staie-assiatea Immigration:
Louisiana tried the same thlnar. but
powerful Influences at Washington were
oie to put a stop to xne plan. If it
were not for the fact that the southern
states, and some of the Pacific coaat
states were thus suffering from a short
age of labor supply the Hawaiian situ
atlon would be quite hopeless. As it is,
the Hawaiian leader are confident of
pooling interests In congress. Al
though they have no vote they will be
um io ur some legislation which
will permit the territory, a a public
necessity, to bring about artificial im
migration from Europe. Even the
sugar planters sadly accept the fact
that the days of orientalism are past
The mere question of getting laborer

The first laborers imported to Ha

was found lnadeauata. wr in rv,i

reign of Kameharaeha III. T The la
borer cost ISO 'apiece to bring; over.
They were paid 13 a month In cash
wage and furnished with food, lodging
and clothes, which cost $4 per month
more. ; There; was no eoonomia differ
ence between the system of contract
labor,; which had Its beginning at that
time, and actual slaverv. FtYnr that
day laborers have been brought to Ha
waii from Manchuria, Korea, China, Ja-
Ran, the island of the aouth eas, from
orway, Germany, Austria, Italy, Rus
sia, Portugal. Spain, Madeira and the
Asorea, while both white and negroes
have been recruited . in th United
States. Since 185S tha number of labor
immigrants to Hawaii ha reached the
enormous total of 188.000. or asooo
more than th total . population of the

ritory, go away. , ;-...,

The reasons for the migratory hablta
of these laborers are many and . com
plex, but perhaps the principle one is
that with few exception, the most of
them can, without Inconvenience, pack
ineir grips ana move at an nour s
notice to any Quarter of the world, and
be just as much at home where thoy
go as where they came from. The
great majority or the laborers live in
quarters or in barracks. These build.

but so small that there can be little
privacy between members of the fam
ily, and so close together that there Is
put small separation from neighbor.
They are so crowded that sanitary cir

possible luxury, even though the house-

that something must be done which

tion laborers as fully and completely

tne Portuguese for example. There Is
not, to my knowledge, a Portuguese

have hundreds Of little individual
home, costing from 1800 to SI. 000 each
which they have built with their own
money, wherever, on the plantations,
there are detached house with ground
around them, the Portuguese are eager
applicant for them.
"Ther ha been, perhaps, more op
portunity for development and exhibi
tion of these tendencies among the
Portuguese and Germans, because the
migration of those two nationalities to
Hawaii ha consisted exclusively of
families, . instead of an overwhelming
proportion of male adulta Moreover
the nationalities have no Intention
of returning to their old homes. They
have permanently expatriated them
selves and will never hav any homo
exceot those which they make anew
