I have seen it rolled out from the refinery. it is almost as white as refined sugar. and of a most delightful flavor. That is the reason the sugar trust is against annexation. because if annexation can be defeated it is $3.000.000 a year in their pockets. Another reason is that the younger Spreckels owns 40.000 acres of the best land of the Hawaiian Islandsa magnificent plantationand it is cultivated by contract labor brought from China and Japan. Spreckels knows that whenever the American flag goes up over Hawaii the laws of the United -States apply to it. and that contract labor must come to an end. That is one reason for opposition to annexation. it is very easily explained. it does not take very many words. I listened with attention yesterday to a discussion of this question by my distinguished friend from Georgia.
