This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1921 edition. Excerpt: ...source of difficulty that is peculiarly important in the preparation of such bills. This lies in the fact that the builders of the tariff are dealing almost altogether with what may be called second-hand materials. Practically every adjective, every noun, every phrase, employed in the structure has been used already in some preceding tariff act, and has been construed and applied by the administrative officials or by the courts, sometimes with quite unexpected results. Moreover, its language, especially in the terms used for describing particular kinds of merchandise, is the language of merchants, of wholesale buyers and sellers, which has through years of trade acquired meanings not always intelligible to the layman. But the legislator is not at liberty to disregard this tariff and commercial history. He may not handle his words as new materials, right out of the dictionary. He must investigate the origin and previous employment of all his verbal planks and beams, and make use of them accordingly. For example, to use a rather homely illustration, if he wants a certain rate of duty to be levied upon women's hairpins, it will not do to provide simply for "pins" in general, upon the assumption that this word includes all sorts of pins. For research will disclose that in a former tariff act Congress at one time provided, not only for "pins," but also, in a separate paragraph at a separate rate of duty, for "hairpins." Which fact was held by the courts to amount to a legislative differentiation between hairpins and pins, so that a hairpin is no longer to be regarded by itself. Thus, in a new tariff act, if hairpins are to receive any special consideration, they must be specially named, as before. Nor will...

Not illustrated. 1920 edition. Excerpt: ... gave for the height of the base of the cloud about 1500 feet and for the top about 2500 feet, and for the width at the base about 1000 feet. As previously mentioned, these clouds have been observed frequently at Honolulu and they have been seen at all seasons of the year. They are usually formed in the early morning or late afternoon hours and have never been observed forming in the middle of the day. They are best formed under conditions of calm or very light winds, occur over fires of all sizes, and have been known to form over large smokestacks on very still days. They are apparently true cumulus and have the same color, shape, and appearance as other cumulus clouds in Hawaii. Also they do not dissipate rapidly as would be the case with smoke clouds. In the present instance the cloud was only seen for a relatively short time, but in June, 1917, a cloud of much greater size, formed at 8 A. M., was still visible two hours later. No instances have ever been recorded in these islands of these clouds producing precipitation. For records of the most striking cases in which this process has actually produced rain, it is necessary to go back to a report of the celebrated American meteorologist James P. Espy, published by the Government in 1857. Espy was much interested in such occurrences, as supporting his theory of storm formation. The pertinent features of his report are reproduced in the Monthly Weather Review. These include an account drawn up by several citizens of Cowdersport, Pa., of a shower produced at that place on July 13, 1844, by the burning of a six-acre fallow field; another of the production of heavy clouds, and presumably rain, at Winnimac, Ind., by a prairie fire; a letter from George Mackay, a surveyor, who tells of...
