The Black Labour Question.

Besides Kanaka<* there are 10,500 other tllens in Queensland against »hum no »cree cf expulsion iy levelled ; while th« Kanaka is, for many reasons, the most Imralesa, as well a& the most useful, of *U aliens On this point the Bi hop of 'varpentarb, on the authority of ' sixteen Fears' personaljobserva ion,' offers striking testimony. Ma eaya: With regard to Sooth Sea Island labour, [ am strongly of the opinion that Ife is of ill coloured la boar the least open to iljecdou. The Islander Is fpaoe certain wild statements, utterly unsupported by evidence) a quiec, doolie, and reliable workman. As regards tbelr moral oharac* cer, the laati census shows only 181 half oaste island children In Queensland, m compared with over 1,500 aboriginal half osbtes, with, in most oases, white fathers, and Mr Justice Ohubba stated a few years ago in Townsville that, he had neves known a South Sta Island witness attera falsehood in evidence. While the Chinese and Hindoos stand mentally, morally, and religiously utterly apart from as, It is not ao with the South Sea Islander. He fa transparently easy fco read, and he is each a ready recipient of ouc own faith _Jhab fully half the Islanders in Queensland are already Christians; his numbers are strictly limited (about 8,000 in Queensland) and cannot be increased owing to lack of supply in the itlaadfc. Above all, he is * . simple labourer, incapable of organisation ar.d competition with the white man, and only asking for his daily work asd daily food.
