About Daily evening Albany democrat. (Albany, Or.) 1888-1888 | View Entire Issue (Nov. 17, 1888)
Daily Democrat. Roger Q. Mills, the apostle of tariff re form, has been re elected to Congress by oyer 6000 majority. This is the district in which wool men were to take vengeance on tariff reformers by slaughtering him. Carlisle was to be punished also for being in favor of tariff reform, but he also re ceived a majority of nearly 6000. Tariff reform will win as sure as time lasts. Mrs. Andrews, the returned missionary from India, in her reference to the mission schools there.in Buffalo the other evening, said that a stranger, on approaching one of these schools, would imagine from the racket that they were disorderly. But this was not the case. It is due to the fact that a girl in India, when studying, screams at the top of her voice and rocks back and forth,and the more interested she becomes in her lesson the louder she screams and the harder she rocks. A tramp walking the ties of the Baltimore Central Railroad a few days ago discover ed a very serious break in the track near Kennett Square. He informed the railroad authorities at the Kennett station, and the break was mended in time to avert what might have been a terrible accident. James Reed, a tramp who has been living near Beaver, Pa., and who has astonished the natives by his knowledge of Shakespearean and other poetry, says his father is to-day a wealthy banker and broker of Baltimore. Reed 6ays he was driven from home fifteen years ago because he fell in love with his step-mother, whom his father had just mar ried. Joseph Roe, a tramp of the most di lapidated ordcr,but who has an artistic eye, his turned the Lancaster almshouse into an art gallery. He whitewashed the walls until the work resembled kalsomining and then he drew some admirable crayon sketches on them. The Orepotiiau with its usual brazen make-up talks about democrats trying to cheat the republicans out of a majority in Congress when there is no evidence in the World of such a charge. But what has that paper to say about his own party trying to cheat Carlisle out of his seat who was elect ed by an unquestioned majority of 6000, or of the followlngdispatch sent sincelhe elec tion to M. M. Estee of California : ''House very close. It is important to our party that we carry every district in California. M.S. Quay."Now,why send such a dispatch after election ? It smacks very much of the doings of 1S76. JON-lNTEK0OUItSE. The Oregmian is much exercised over the hint that comes from China, that that nation will retaliate against the United States for passing the exclusion bill. This retaliation it is said will consist in China's abrogating all treaty relations with the United States and shut her ports liermitl cally against our shipping and commerce and by pursuing the policy of strict non- intercourse. The Oregoniaa grieves over the fact that we will thus lose all our trade with that country, which, as it says, last year amounted to five millions dollar's worth of cotton goods which we sold that country. The Oregmian would exclude the product of Chinese labor by a protective tariff in the interest of the American man ufacturer, but bemoans the effort to protect American laborers . by excluding Chinese cheap laborers from our shores. The ex clusion law lately passed by Congress ex pires by limitation May 6th, 1892, and if not recnacted Chinese will come to our shores without let or hindrance. We be lieve the law will rot be reenacted,because much of the opposition to Chinese immi gration on this coast is regarded by people in the East as insincere.

W o o co Co 9. 0 t-d z CO - , Superior. That is the name of the stove at G. W, Smith's attracting so much attention. It is a splendid cook stove. Among the excellent articles of food fo. poultry must be reckoned parched corn. Its preparation is simple: all that is neces tary being the laying of the cobs across the Coals and turning them until the outer cuds Of the kernels are charred. Those who have tried It declare that corn thus prepar ed is an excellent substitute for charcoal as a purifier,acts as a tonic upon the bowels' and that its feeding properties Are rather heightened than diminished. As it pre juration Is so easy and the expense practi cally nothing the fowls must be fed- -it is certainly worth a trial by those who have never as vet done so. In the course of conversation at Cornell University recently, Edward Atkinson.the Boston economist, stated that a New Eng land genius has discovered a cheap method of dissolving zinc by combining it with hydrogen and producing a solution called zinc water. This liquid, if applied to cer tain woods, notably white wood, makes it absolutely fireproof, and at a low cost. Mr. Atkinson regards this discovery as one of the most important o! the age, and one that will certainly revolutionize fire insurance, as well as Immensely decrease the loss by fire. This Invention is kept secret for the present. Only one foreigner, Sir Lyon Playfair, the English scientlst,knows of it He corroborates all that Is claimed for the invention, and says that the inventor is a bungling chemist, but that he has a faculty of blundering into the choicest secrets in nature's laboratory. As soon as patents are perfected and capital interested, zinc water will become an article of commerce We laugh at the Immense hoops, the small bonnets and pinched waists of thirty years ago, and yet our present fashions will appear quite as ridiculous to our grand children. Regarded from a dispassionate point of veiw, could anything be more absurd than the women of the day with their immense bustles, like the humps on the backs of dromedaries, rising abruptly from waists like those of attenuated wasps and shoulders distorted by the compression of the corset? Ridicule is of no avail, ap peals to common sense arc just as uselesst and unless the woman of the future is a very different being from the woman of the past and present, hideous, uncomfort" able and injurious fashions will reign with just as despotic sway as they have ever done.
