THE DAILY DEMOCRAT.
NOT ALONE.
Not democrat! alone are protesting a
giinst the scheme of the majority of Mc
Kilney's committee to Increase the tariff
taxes. The Ttlegrafh of Philadelphia, a
very staunch republican paper.has the fol:
lowing to say:
Among the other industries which are
absolutely controlcd by a close combina
tion or trust, is that of plate and window
glass manufacturers. Last eek this trust
met and advanced the prices of all its
manufacturers jo percent. A day or two
later the committee on ways and means
announced thioughthe newspapers that l
had agreed to advance the duties on plate
and waidow- glass. If the committee had
been a partner with the Plate and
Window glass Trust it could not have done
no more than it did. The present ad va
lorem duty on window-glass is from 66.04
'o 13' 35- on plate-glass it is from 77 to
144. Such a duty would certainlv be
thought oy any reasonable mind high
enough; but the Plate and Window-glass
Trust and ways and means committee are
resolved that,'if possible, it shall be made
prohibitory, 1 thing most dilluult to do,
as the French article is so much superior to
the American as to render its use necessary
to picture and mirror dealers. They must
have the clearest glass, no matter what it
costs.
That the present duty is high enough,or
too high, will not; be disputed, we think, by
any one who nits noticed trie suit tor an
injunction heard by Judge McKennan and
Achesoo in tSe United States Circuit
Court at Pittsburg, the other day, to re
strain the Pittsburg Plate Glass Company
from issuing $750,000 capital stock to J It
Ford vV Co. The evidence submitted to
the 1 n.irt showed that at a meeting of the
con ,aiy, held at Creighton on the 29th of
JaiK.ary last past, it was officially an
nounced that the net earnings on the capi
tal of $2,750,000 amounted in 1SS9 to 35
per cent. Regular dividends of 23 per
cent, were paid during the year, and at the
meeting of the 29th ultimo a special divi
dend of iijf per cent, was declared, which
represents a net profit of $962,500. Fur
ther, trie official report stated that the plate
glass industry was exceedingly flourishing,
tile Company's sevetal works being pushed
lo their utmost capacity, and the orders
alriady received for 1890 would make the
profits much larger than those of 1SS9. A
year ago the actual value of stock of this
company was $1,4245,000, and it was then
increased to represent its present value,
namely, $2,750,000, on which dividends
f percent, were paid as the earnings
of a single twelvemonth.
HINTS TO HOUSEKEEPERS.
The pie crust of meat or chicken pies
should always be psrforated before baking ,
to allow thd escape of noxious gases gener
ated within.
A retired plumber thus gives a point for
the gratuitous relief of householders:
"Just before retiring at night pour Into
the clogged pipe enough liquid soda lye to
fill the "trap" or bent part of the pipe.
Be sare no water runs in It until the next
morning. During the night the lye will
Convert all the offal into soap, and the first
current of water In the mernlng will wash U
away and clear the pipe clean as new."
Doorplalcs should b: cleaned by rubbing
with a cloth wet in ammonia and water.
If brooms are soaked in strong, hot salt
and water before using, the splints will not
break in sweeping.
Almonds are blanched by pouring water
over them after they are shelled; when
they have remained for a few moments in
the water they on be rubbed In a soft
towel, and the skin will slip off the kernels
leaving them whn and entire.
A resturant-keeper sayt celery wants to
e In cold water an hour before It ts
chewed.
To brighten carpet wipe them with
warm water In which has been poured a
few drops of a mmonia.
To cure hiccoughs, sit erect and inflate
the lungs fully. Then, retaining the
breath, bend forward slowly until the chest
meets the knees. After slowly rising a
gain to the erect position, slowly exhale the
breath. Repeat this process a second
tl.ne, and the nerves will be found to have
received an excess of energy that will en
able them to perform their natural
Junctions.
If you dip the wicks of lamps In strong,
hot vinegar, and then dry them, It will do
away with most of the disagreeable smell.
If the color has been taken out of silks
by fruit stains, ammonia will usually re
store the color.
An easy method of removing bits of
foreign bodies from the eye Is to place a
grain of flaxseed under the lower lid, and
close the lids. Vhe seed becomes sur
rounded by a thick, adherent mucilage,
which entraps the f 01 clijn body, and toon
carries it out from the angle of the eye,
Grease spots may be taken out with

paper over, and Iron with a hot Iron.

The Farmer's Alliance of Kansas hat
prepared a great number ot petitions ask'

the legislature. Owing to failure of the
crops, the people In the western part of the
state are suffeilnggieativ, and are liable to
lose their all. Most of the farms are mort
gaged to eastern capitalists, and the legis

venting the ousting of uccupante of mort
gaged propeity without giving them to
years time to redeem it. Other petitions
ask that railroads be compelled to lower
their transportation rates.
It has been asserted that chewing wood
