National Cane Shredder
tPATENTED UNDER THE LAWS or
THE HAWAIIAN IsLANDS.l

Mr.. John A. Scott, Manager
of the Hilo Sugar Company
gives the following wonderful.
record of the working of the
NATIONAL CANE SHRED.
DER, which was erected by
their works at the commence
ment of the crop just har-
vested:
During the past week the
Hilo Sugar Company's mill ex-
ceeded any of its former
records by closing the 1875
hours grinding with an output
of 5000 tons. This is fully 10
per cent. more than the best
work of former years.
1.-THE three roller mill being
26 in. by 81 in. and the two
roller mill 80 in. by 60 in. The
first mill doing this amount of
work in an efficient manner
and with great ease, compared
with work on whole cane,
owing to thorough preparation
of the cane by the National
Cane Shredder. recently erec-
ted by the Company. And
by it's use the extrac-
ton has been increased from
8 per cent. to 5 per cent. on all
kinds of cane, and in some
cases so per cent. has been
reached; the average being 70
to IS per cent, according to
quality.
81 continue to find the
megass from shredded cane
better fuel than from whole
cane.
"The shredder has been
working day and night for
seven months and has given
me entire satisfaction, having
shredded during that time
about seventy thousand tons
of cane, and a large part of it
being hard ratoons.
'The shredder and engine
require very little care or

and by an appeal to party prejudices
and free application Of the party lash
force Us into their support.
Our political speakers. the men in
Office or expecting office, condemn the
methods Of the gang in private, and
speak in whispers Of the political foul
ness Of its leader, but on the stump and
to the people generally they undertake
to Justify the existence Of one boss by
the alleged existence of another boss.
l submit in this connection that it will
be time enough for us to look after
somebody else's boss when we have
JhrOttled our own. The scriptural in
junction about the mote in our broth
er's eye suggests the duty Of the citi-
zen.
Men who followed Corwin, Chase,
Giddings, Wade and Sherman to great
achievements cannot afford to smirch
their brilliant record by trOoping like q
mad rabble at the heels of a syndicate
of tricksters. Temporary defeat is pre-
ferable to permanent degradation, and
partial defeat in the coming election
would strengthen the Republican party
for the campaign Of 1886, by Kidding it
Of blind leaders and a heavy burden Of
Uncleanness. The lesson that fair play
within party limits is indispensable to
party success, can neither be taught too

TOUCHED THEIR HEARTS.

A group of girl clerks in a large dry
goods store were laughing and talking
together. when there came down the
aisle q small grey-haired old man, evil
IDENTIFY from the country. He locked
around him with eager interest as he
came down the aisle, and the girls be-
gan whispering and tittering together.
Grandfather Hayseed,' one OF them
said, derisively.
Ask him how his crops are coming
on, said another.
Guess III see if he has any butter
and eggs to SELL said q third, while q
fourth added:

fifths of "caliker," and will expect us TO
take pay for it in garden etuff. "
Approaching the counter the old man
bought several small articles the girl
who waited on him exchanging SLY
glances with her companions as they
still continued whispering and laugh
ing together.
The old man carried, in one hand,
small. neatly made basket, the lid tied
down with o bit Of ribbon.
While waiting for his change, he
lifted the basket to the counter and
said:
