HOW Tue User DID IT .

BY piece of journalistic enterprise unham-
pered by regard for the truth or newspaper eth.
les, the Advertiser this morning published the
inaugural address of President Wilson before it
scos deliUcred in Washington.
Even allowing for the difference in time be-
tween Washington and Honolulu, the Adver-
tisers issue this morning containing the address
in full was generally circulated before the adj
dress was made. in Washington
The Associated Press advance report OF the
speech reached Honolulu in yesterday mornings
mail Joseph p Tumulty, secretary to the pres
ident, had printed on the first page of the adj
vance copies the following:
"Released for publication, without further
notice, at II o'clock noon Eastern time) March
a, 1913.
To this the Associated Press added:
ssThe following matter may be published at
time indicated without further notice of re,
lease"
The time indicated, IL o'clock noon, eastern
time, is, according to standard United States
time, 6 30 o'clock a. m here
Long before that time the Advertisers morn
ing issue was circulated Even supposing that
the presidents address began promptly at noon,
the AufcFticcT Was printing II Hefc dH HOuT dI
least prior to it's actual delivery. And this not
withstanding the confidential nature of the mes
sage until given to the public, notwithstanding
newspaper ethics, Associated Press rules and
the explicit directions of the secretary to the
new president.
This is the kind of cheap business the morn
ing paper pulled off in order to print the adj
dress first.
The advance copy of the address reached the
editor of the Star Bulletin at 10 O'Clock yester-
day morning. Had this paper no higher regard
for confidence and for the respect due to the
nresident than the morning paper showed today,
the Star-Bulletin could have published the in
auguraI address yesterday afternoon.
Evidently aware of the breach of faith which
Il was committing, the Advertiser this morning
nrefaced the address with an advance excuse,
stating that the president assumed office at
II 40 this morning and his address was deliv-
cred Immediately after, approximately six
o'clock this morning, Honolulu time" Then

CONSIDERABLE
FREE TRADE

Practically one billion dollars
worth of merchandise from foreign
countries entered the United States
free of duty in the yelr just ended.
The exact figures. just completed by
the Statistical Division of the Bureau
OF Foreign and Domestic Commerce,
are $992.376 400. against 794 million
in 1911, 636 million in 1907. $50 mil
lion in 1905. 40S million in 1902. and
342 million in 1900. the value of non
dutiable merchandise imported having
thus prac 'ically trebled in the last
twelve years These figures of duty
free mercha ndise relate only to that
coming from foreign countries. II to
these were added the value of mer-
chandise entering from Hawaii and
Porto Rico. all of which enters free of
duty, the total value Of non-dutiabla
merchandise entering continental
United States in 1912 would he s1,0S4.-
600. 900. While mot of the mer-
ohandise entering from the Philin-
1ines is also non.du'iable. 1t is In
elnded in the general group of IMPORTS
from foreign countries. iince those
Islands are still classed with foreign
commerce.
The share which non-dutiahle mer-
ehaudise formed of the total importe
in 1912 was $40 per cent, against SIS
percent in 1911 and 1872 per ccn y,
1910. The per centage of the imports
entering free of duty in 1912 was
greater than in any earlier year ex-
cent 1894, when abnormally large
quantities Of sugar. which was free
under the act of 1890. was rurriedly
imported in view of the prospective
restoration of duty on sugarSby the
tariff law enacted in that year.

INLOUlSIANA

American Sugar Industry for Jan.
uary gives an account of the trial OF
cane cutter in Louisiana. About
twenty years ago the Louisiana Sug-
ar Planters Association offered a
prize of $1,000 for q device that would
cut strip and top cane. The article
in the magazine just mentioned says
in part:
"The announcements that machine
driven by so horse power gasoline
engine, the invention of r. NJ Cock.
rell, Jr., has been tried out at the
Godchaux's Reserve plantation, and
that II has been pronounced by many
who have watched 1t in operation to
be a success, will be received with
enthusiasm, and the official report on
the demonstration before the commit
tee appointed by the Planters AS
than the usual amount Of interest dis
played in new inventions.
About two acres Of cane were set
aside at Reserve and the machine
made series of short runs beginning
with December 10, . After each run adj
justments made resulted in long
er runs and greater efficiency. The
longest continuous run was between
so and 20 feet on December 81. The
stoppages were caused by an Occa-
sional stalk striking some exposed guy
rod or nut of the machine interfer-
ing with he even feed of the cane anu
also by some difficulty in getting rid
of the trash after II had been strip
ed. r'A IF.@
"The inventor ls1af Missouri man.
the son of former United States Sen
ator Francis M. Cockrell, and first
became interested in the cane har-
vesting problem while associated with
his brother, planter in Mexico, ten
years ago, and has been working on
ii ever since"
It appears there are others, the fol-
lowing extract being from the Louisi-
ana letter in the same number OF
American Sugar Industry.
"Mr. F. NJ Cockrell. Jr., OF Mis-
souri,, who has for some years past
been endeavoring to, perfect prac-
ticable cane harvester, tried out his
new machine recently on the Reserve
plantation of the Leon Godchaux Co.,
In st. John parish 1t appears that
other inventors are working out the
cane harvester idea also. The Had
ley Manufacturing Co. with an au-
thorized capital of $2,500,000, was
chartered here during the month. to
promote the manufacture of cane
harvester invented by A. N. Hadley
of Missouri, said to be the inventor
of corn harvester, which he sold to
the harvester companies. Mr.. Hadley
is said to have worked for about
three years on his cane harvester,
and is understood to be testing out
the machine in the Cuban canefields.
Geo. D. Luce, inventor of the Luce
Cane Harvester, announced few
days ago that he would give demon
STATIONS of his machine at the sugar
experiment station IN Tudubon Park.
A practicable power cane harvester
would be almost inestimably valuable
to cane growers, and it probably
would be no exaggeration to say that
dozens of such machines have been
tried out during the past fifteen or
twenty years"
