not press the purpose Of sending an

cellent condition and the plants APP
peared to be Of the best.
aAs to the pineapples which are
raised in Hawaii, can safely say
that they rank first with all others
in the market today | remember
when the first pineapples were i'm
ported into the United States from
Singapore fifteen years ago, At that
time, Hawaiian pines were unknown,
and all the pineapples then in use in
the states were packed at Baltimore.
The trade at that time had never dealt
IN pines which were grown on the.
outside, and the result was that the
jobbeTs bought the foreign pines up
right and left, and even over bought
them. The pack of the Singapore
pines was new and so different from
the Baltimore pack, and the supply
was taken up as soon rs it arrived.
It turned out, however, that the Sin
gapore pines were poorly packed by
poor labor, and the shipments were
irregular, and after two years the mar,
hSt lOOh q, QduSeFOuS Sluulp, anu the
pineapple game was given setback.
Then the Hawaiian pines came into
the market and for a long time the
trade was skeptical and hard to get
started.
1T appears TO me that the local pro-
ducers have only partially gone into
the matter of placing their product
before the public. The advertising
campaign which the packers put up
some years ago | understand, did not
reach enough people. The local pack
ers have paid out more money for
additional acreage than they have for
advertising their goods do not be-.
Heye that they should try tc increase
their acreage at the present. but ]
do believe that they should give more
Of their attention 10 promotion work.
After the goods had been placed be-
fore the public in a thorough manner,
then would be the time TO increase the
acreage. The average producer is not
an advertising man. but he finds that
once he has started to advertise ii is
necessary that he keep it ND"

1t would mean that other offices filled

geney from every point of view.

TO MAKE SLAVERY INQUIRY
Governor Harrison Will Study
Philippine Conditions.
From The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, Sept. 22.-The Secretary OF
War has ordered an investigation of the
charges made by Dean @. Worcester, for
merly a member OF the Philippine Com
mission. and supported by W. II. Phipps'
insular auditor, that slavery exists In the
islands. The investigation will be made
by Francis Burton Harrison, the new
Governor General OF the Philippines, now
on his way to Manila.
II has been officially reported here that
there has been recently some slavery
prosecutions in the lower courts in the
Philippines, but no cases have ever
reached the higher courts.
Governor Harrison. IT is stated, will be
instructed to make a thorough investiga-
ton. and will be asked to report on
whether the slavery which exists is due
to the lack OF proper laws or 70 the non
enforcement of laws already existing.
Secretary Garrison said to-day that ne
believed there were already SUFFICIENT
laws to cover the situation. II this
proves upon investigation 70 be the case
he will insist upon their enforcement lie
will not permit slavery conditions TO con
tinue. Persons familiar with the Philip
pines believe the complete eradication OF
eavery. or peonage. will be most difficult,
as It exists mostly among the semi-civ-
illZed tribes
