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.

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.

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.
