A Bill for the Whole People.
LnhEIn Dr.n-la

The trusts, arrangements, pools, COM
bines and monopolies of every sort, big
ana little, are against the Mills tariff bill.
They are also against the people of the
United States. 1t is high time that the
people of the United States who elect the
congresses should make q note of the DO
sition OF affairs and see that their repre-
sentatives do their duty. The farmers,
miners, weavers, blacksmiths, carpenters,
shoemskers and all the hosts of labor can
not spend the time or money to sit in the
loby at Warrington and look after their
interests; but they can, one and all. write
to the man that represents them. Now is
the time TO do ID. Tbs mails should 90

Tariff Made Castles.

Favoring the few at the expense of the
many, a protective tariff will never be in
harmony with the free institutions of this
country, 1t opposes the cardinal principle
Of our American freedom, laid down
in the Declaration of Independence,
namely, the principle of equal rights
for all in all matters of public con-
Germ, that is, matters affected or to be
affected by law. A protective tariff, pro-
dueing sfltuence among the manufacturers
and pauperism among their workingmen,
try into rich and poor, Capitalists and
laborers, as classes, aud TINS practically
creates class distinction. Under its Op-

An Absurd Argument.
New York Times.l

The protactionists claim, some of them
sincerely enough, that IL the particular
manufacturers favored by the tariff are
projected from foreign competition they
can get higher prices for their goods make
more profit, can and will employ more la
Dor and pay higher wages, and thus the
money accumulated through the tariff will
be distributed aud the whole country will
benefit by 1t. That is an absurd argument
when it is analyz since the very men
who are to be made prosperous by selling
to the highly-pa Workmen OF the protect
ed manufacturers are to furnish the money
for their own prosperity. No farmer ever

SPLENDID WORK DONE BY RUB
 BER BELTS.

The high standard of efficiency which can be realized by the employment of strictly first class rubber belts is now re- ceiving merited recognition from users who have had them in severe service for many years and whose experience can not fail to be of value to all mill owners and furnishers of factory equipments. In the matter of simple tensile strength, the superiority of these belts has long been conceded.In ordinary work, howev- CT, this consideration is practically of far less importance than that of having a belt which will hug the pulley tightly, or with which there will be no 'sslip.'' In this narticular. whether the pullevs used

The slipping of belts IS one of the most troublesome incidents in many shops and it is not in frequent to find mechanics rubbing them with beeswaX, resin and other substances. to prevent slipping. This should never be done with any kind of belt; but where a rubber belt is used, the slipping, which affords temptation to resort to such ex- pedients, does not occur

 show two large belts of this kind recent ly completed by the New York Betting and Packing Company, each of them three feet wide and nearly half a mile long. These belts were sent to West Su- perior, Wis, and each of them weighed ll,O00 pounds. Had they been made of leather, they would have required at least 300 selected hides to manufacture each one of them. With this lot the company also furnished driving belt 52 inches wide, eight-ply, 29S feet long and weigh ing 4,O0O pounds. Some idea of the quan- tity of material required can be formed, when we state that these orders consum- ed S8,000 pounds of cotton duck and rub Der.
 Perhaps the most important consider ation of all to be taken into account in fitting up machinery is to have the plant so provided with power that there shall be no ''breakdowns." Such mishaps ne- cessitate the waiting of worlln1en in time they are paid for, as we'll as delay of the work and involve an increased expense in the cost of production, which is seldom estimated at it's true importance. In fact, there is no room allowed at all for such an item of cost, with the close figuring practiced in many of our large industries at the present day, although it occurs with more or less frequency in every bus mess. As touching this point, the com pany received highly significant testi- monial of the durability of one CT their belts under heavy service. It was main driving belt, 4S inches wide and 320 feet long, six-ply, used ill Central elevator ''B," Chicago and had been in constant service from September, 1869, until April, 1886, d period of 16 years and months. The uninterrupted use for so long aperi- cd of so large and hervy driving belt affords the best possible practical gauge of the character of it's manufacture. The great tensile strength of rubber belting is due to it's web of heavy cotton duck, the rubber being driven through and through it's meshes by powerful machin- cry. The fabric used for this purpose is made expressly for the company by Brinckerhof, Tnrner < Co. of New ' 1ork and has more than double the strength of the heavy cotton duck used for sails of ships. The preparation of the rubber itself is, however, long and very elab- crate process, in which the present man. ner of working has only been reached af- ter years of experiment. The sulphur to be used in the vulcanizing is carefully tested and weighed, as are also the diff ferent metallic oxides, making q semi metallic compound, which gives the sur face of the belts high degree of firm ness, while there is yet sufficient elastic ity to allow of their hugging the pulley closely and enables them to resist a high degree of heat, so that their surfaces may not be injured by friction. The sev- eral thicknesses of rubber-impregnat duck which go to make the several weights of belts are so arranged, by the folding over of the outside strip, as to present a perfectly even and half round edge and then passed between powerful heated rollers. Subsequent to this, the large belts are finished ill an immense steam press, said to be the largest of the kind in tho world and calculated to com-
