National Cane Shredder
PATENTED UNDER TIE LAWS or
THE uAwAIIAN ISLANDS.

following letter from Mr..
JOHN A. SCoTT, Manager of
the Hilo Sugar Co, regarding
the working of the National
Cane Shredder, which be has
Just introduced into the Mill
of that Company:
WASAKU, Huo, HAWAII,
January 22d, 1S94.I
Hos. VS. Ct. IRWIN, HoEoLuLU, III. L.
DEAR SIR:-In reply TO yours OF IL Q
10th inst. regarding the National Cane
Shredder furnished by the Universal
Mill Co. of New York, and erected by
the Hilo Sugar Co. this past season,
would beg 10 say, that it has now been
in operation day and night during the past
three weeks working on plant cane, and
also hard ratoons, and it is giving me the
greatest satisfaction. The more / see OF
its capabilities, the better pleased l am
that put IL in, as | am satisfied that IL
will repay the original outlay in a short
time, in saving of labor, higher extrac-
ton, etc.
1t is shredding from $50 to 400 tons OF
cane every % hours with the greatest
ease, and it could shred a much larger
quantity if necessary. IL delivers the
shredded cane in an even uniform feed
TO the three roller mill, which receives il
without the intervention OF any labor,
and as the cane is thoroughly shredded
or disintegrated it relieves the mill OF a
great deal OF strain, thus reducing the
liability ot broken shafts, gearing, etc.
There is q saving of four az men daily
on the mill, as only one man Is required
to regulate the amount of cane delivered
by the carrier to the shredder. 1t has
increased the extraction from 4 10
per cent.
The economical use Of steam is zane
rally serious consideration in adding
new machinery, as in most mills the
boiler power is taxed 10 its highest limit,
as it was in this mill, and any increased
demand necessitated an additional boil
er. But l find that the shredder and the
three roll mill engines combined use no
more steam than the three roll mill
engine did when working on whole cane,
while doing better work and more of it,
and owing 10 the uniform feed on the
mill, the engine demands very little
attention.
The Megass from the shredded Ane
makes superior fuel, and the frel IN
have less difficulty in maintaining uni
form pressure of steam than formerly.
l will be pleased to have a call from
parties interested, as it is necessary 70
see the machine at work to fully app G
ciate its capabilities.
! remain, very truly yours,
(Sig.) JOHN a. SCOTT,
Manager Hilo Sugar Co.

tween the state socialists and the an
archists. They relate wholly to ques-
tions of what means are to be adopted
to reach common end. While the
differences are themselves irreconcil-
able, because, if government of man
by man necessarily runs into abuse and
abuse into oppression, it must be
abolished; yet, there is not necessarily
any antagonism between state social
lists and anarchists as men. These are
questions of fact; but the differences
exist in the opinion of each as to the
facts. Now, there is no chance for
splitting the difference here. If per-
feet individual liberty, free from all
government of man by his fellows, is a
natural right, then compulsory govern
ment, in any form and for any purpose,
is violation Of that right. The COM
munity can have no rights over the in
dividual to rule over him in any par
ticular. 1t absolutely excludes the
right of government. Even Mr..
Wakefeld's proposition to socialize
things that are public in their nature
and functions, while leaving to the SOW
ereignty of the individuals those things
which concern and effect only the in
dividual, is an absurdity. There is no
dividing line. 1t is impossible to dis
tinguish them. There is not corpora
tion in this country for any purpose
which could not be changed into a CO.
operative society by cutting off the capi-
tai stock and bonds, and discharging
the sinecure office holders. The affairs
could then be run just as smoothly, by
exactly the same men, and far more
satisfactorily, because the DhOle earn
ings would 60 equally to those who do
the work instead of being absorbed by
the drOnes as now. The parasites do
not help one whit. Labor would then
have a sufficient reward to encourage
} it to give better service, and there would
be no occasion to strike. Even the
postotfice would be infinitely improved
by being re-organized as a cooperative
society, although it should continue to
be carried on by precisely the same men
as now.
But efforts like Mr., Wakefeld's have
a value for indicating just how far the
people have progressed toward under
standing the questions involved in the
terms socialism and "anarchy."
Judging from his article it will be a
long time before they have any great
knowledge of them, especially if they
take their ideas from those who COM
prehend them so little. Still, it is a
good thing to know just where to put
forth the needed effort, and Mr.. Wake
field has done well to show it. But let
me suggest that, if Mr.. Wakefield will
devote little more time to a study of
S socialism and anarchy he will be able
to make them clearer to his readers
than he has done in this case.

Socialism and Anarchy.


sometimes to see the ingenuity men
will display in trying to avoid work.
And this is just as true OF intellectual
work as of manual labor. They are al
ways ready to compromise the differ
ence between truth and error, rather
than work it out. If two propositions
are made which, on their surface, ap-
pear antagonistic, rather than to make
such thorough study of the subject
as to enable them to comprehend their
full import, and so sift the false from
the true, they quote an "old Latin
adage" that, "the truth lies between
the two extremes" and then proceed
to harmonize things.
A good illustration of this is fur
nished in a communication from w.
III. T. Wakefield, on the above subject,
which was published in the ADVOCATE
of March q. He assumes that social
ism and anarchy are inconsistent
theories" and then hopelessly mixes up
the two with state regulation and in
diVidualism in way to confuse an ex-
pert. will try to unwind some of his
tangles. First, socialism seeks to bring
about better social conditions than al
ready prevail, and, in this sense, it in
cludes all schools of social reform, an
archy among the rest. But their unity
is far more pronounced than even this.
Taking that special form of socialism
called state socialism, so called because
it seeks to realize its reforms by the ac-
tion of the state, which is generally
claSsed as contradictory and incOn-
sistent' with anarchy by such super
ficial writer's as Mr.. Wakefield, and its
ends are perfectly in accord with an
archy. They each seek to inaugurate
an era of equality, fraternity and pros
perity. They aim to destroy the privi.
leges which some have over others; to
open up the resources of the world
to all the people of the world; to
equalize the enjoyments of wealth and
comfort, and to remove all baseness
and crime from among mankind. They
both seek to decrease human govern
ment and increase the sum of human
liberty. There is not a single particu-
lar in which the real aims Of one diff
fers from the aims of the other. Their
differences are in their methods and
not in their ends. The state socialist
seeks to enact equality by law; while
the anarchist recognizes law as the only
thing which sets up inequality. The
state socialist would make a strong
government in order to protect the
weak from the strong, but the anarch.
ist asks, ''who is to protect the weak
individuals from the strong govern
mentY He sees in all governments
the very element of strength which the
strong always use for the oppression of
the weak. The state socialist thinks it
necessary, in order to carry on large
enterprises, and for the production and
distribution of wealth comparatively to
place the direction of all this in the
hands of the state; while the anarchist
contends that cooperation must be free
and voluntary, and that the interests
OF the members of society would natur-
ally lead to such cooperation without
the necessity for state regulation. They

Tha sequel to the rotten beef incident at

come to light. Lewelling sent q young,
slick lawyer from the state insurance Office
out to six up things at the home" He
had few of the home pets called into the
Office Of the home OCmmandant, and they
drew up set Of resolutions Of confidence,
in which they declared that their food had
been the best and their treatment the kind

brought in the other inmates of the home
one at time and had them put their names
to the paper, they not daring to refuse,
kno wing too we'll how they would be
treated if they refused TO do anything these
pets ordered them to do. The inmates
were then mustered in the Office, the COM
mandant and the governors agent being
conveniently absent. One of the pets was
made spokesman to present the resolutions
to ''the old man." The old man and the
fixer were sent for, the spokesman, with
