A Scramble for FaVOrs.
st. Louis Republican.

The real character of the Tariff Com
mission, now holding its levees at Long
Branch, and the objects contemplated in
the appointment of it, are becoming
more and more evident every day. Not
that the commission is not eliciting a
large amount of very instructive infor-
nation. The arguments and statements
made before it are full of interest. and
will enlighten the people as they have
never been enlightened before on this
matter OF taxing one. class of citi-
zens for the advantage of an
other. But tine commissions inves-
legations are one sided. Now and
then some one makes an argument
in favor of a general reduction of the
tariff to a revenue basis, and of the free
admission of raw materials and ma
chinery used in manufacturing:
but the commissions time is chiefly
taken up in hearing arguments
from special interests which tell how the
tariff ought to be adjusted so as to secure
the largest proportion of advantage to
themselves. The rights and interests
OF the mass of the people do
not concern them. It does not
occur to them that the fiftv-Odd
million people of the United States have
any rights or interests that a Tariff Com
mission is bound to respect. To-day it
is the steel manufacturers who tell the
commission how the tariff ought to be
arranged to suit them; tomorrow It is
the SILK manufacturers; next day it is the
sugar rei1ners, and the day after it is the
sugar growers. Then come in regular
order, the Eastern pottery manufacturers.
the Woolen manufacturers, the knit goods
manufacturers, the wood screw manufac.
turers, the paper manufacturers and
a procession of other manufacturers
having their establishments in the East.
all eager to convince the commission
that the tariff which protects them re-
spectively ought to be made higher. or.
at least, ought not to be made lower.
These special interests are able to act
promptly and efficiently in presenting
their claims before the commission. but
those on whom these protective duties
fall like an indirect tax, the consumers
OF the country, have no hearing before
the body.
And yet, after all, the commissions
investigations may lead to a result the
very opposite of what was intended.
The conflict between the favored indus
tries, their scramble for special benefits in
the adjustment of the tariff, and their
unintended success in showing how a
protective duty which benefits one man
utacturer Injuries another, will reveal the
complexity, the selfshness, the sectional
and partial character, and the utter
unreasonableness of the whole protec-
tive system, and it may cause the people
to demand the gradual abolition of a
policy founded on favoritism on one
side and injustice on the other.

How Clay Pipes Are Made.

Ii is popularity believed, says the De-
troit Free Press, that all clay pipes are
either made in Europe or from clay
brought from the other hemisphere, but
such is not the case, as very large
share Of the clay pipes made in Ameri-
ca are made of clay found at and near
Woodbridge, n. j.
The clay comes TO Detroit by the car
load, and the first step toward prepar-
ing il for molding is to sufficiently dam
pen it with water to make it pliable.
This is done by placing il in tank,
where it suakS in water about twenty
four hours. II is then hammered with
ron bars, thus Kidding it of any Jumps
or dry chunks. Then the molding be-
gins, the workman taking lump of
clay in each hand and by squeezing
and rolling it molds the pieces into
rough stem thrice larger than the finish.
ed pipe stem, having rough ball at its
end sThe5e 'rolls,' as they are called,
are piled on wooden trays, sixteen to
each tray, after which they are dried,
either by the sun or artificial means,
After having been dried, not TO hard
ness, but sufficient to dispose of all SUI
periluous dampness, the rolls are ready
TO have the stem drilled and the bowl
formed To drill tho stem the work
man holds a small iron rod--the size Of
the stem hole-and with his left hand
pulls the clay over the rod instead Of
showing the rod through the stem To
do this the workman is guided solely
by the sense Of touch in his finger tips,
and that sense is so accurate that the
hole is invariably made straight and
equidistant from all points Of the eXte.
ror Of the roll The ball at the end OF
the roll is turned up, and then roll and
rod are placed in an iron matriX which
presses tho plioblo clay into the desired
outside pattern, Then the matrix and
It's contents are placed in hand press,
and the workman, 10y pulling lever,
forms the hole of tho pipe-bowl, The
nodded pipe still soft and pliablc, next
passes to tho hands Of the trimmers,

Then the pipes are placed in tireprooi

A Pratty Bird Story From Maine,

A letter from Limington, Me-, TO the
Portland Press relates the following on
the asserted authority Of Miss T.. of
L:n "Iu her backyard are some plum
trees, in which some bush sparrows for
several years have built their nests and
reared their young, The lady Of the
house was accustomed to put upon the
back door steps and windoW-sill shreds
of cotton yarn for them TO build their
nests with, and pieces Of cracker or SUI
gar cookies, which the birds would
come and eat and feed to their young,
and aiterward coax their young down
when they could fly, and teach them to
eat also The lady took great pleasure
in the birds rs they came FROM, year to
year and she could distinguish these
from others of the same species, as all
others we're shy; these were not, even
on their first return. One day after the
Young had grown up the whole flock

upon the supplied crackers, when to
their establishment a striped squirrel
which had been sitting erect near by
apparently unnoticed, lcaped among
them, and off they flew in a great
fright, The same thing was repeated
several times, Finally, they flew up
and lighted upon piece of clothes-line,
which had been left for that purpose for
them, and, putting their heads together,
they chartered several minutes, then
down they flew again upon the steps BY
the pieces OF crackers. After few mo-

surprise, however the birds, instead OF
