Some rather startling conclusions as
to the future conditions of the Ameri-
can plate glass market and the prices
that are likely to rule. as we'll as some
forcible illustrations of operations of
protective tariff. may be drawn from
the above figures, with other cOntem-
pOraneiOus facts. Prior to 1883 the I'M
portation of plate glass for glazing pur-
poses was very large. Since that time
however, the home product so largely
increased each year that the lmporta-
ton steadily decreased until 1850.
when it entirely ceased. so far as glaz-
ing quality is concerned. According &c
the above table the product will be q
per cent. larger before the close OF 1891,
and plate glass become so cheap that
it can be used in the most ordinary
structures.
Fifteen years ago plate glass was
selling at an average price OF about
g. 80 per square foot and the manutac'
turer lost money at that, and to-day
the average price per foot is abou,
sixty cents and the margin OF profit l:
still larger. These changes, both a;
relate to prices and the supply OF tht
home market by home product, have
been achieved under fostering tariff
and in the face of the fact that the pro
duct has been far short of the demand
until the past year.
The only plate glass of any large i'm
portation now is the silvering quality
of small sizes, which American manu-
facturers claim they cannot afford t
produce under the present low duty OF
| glass under ten square feet.

Denyer,s Coming Congress.

DENVER, Col, April Ex-Governor
Barber of Wyoming to-day notified
Secretary Newell of the appointment oi
thirty delegates to represent Wyoming
at the commercial congress. Governor
Boies OF Iowa writes that his appoint.
ment will be made within few days.
The names Of delegates appointed by
the governors OF Idaho and Nevada
were also received. The commercial
club Of Sedalia, Mo-, will be represented
BY ten delegates, and the city of Sedalia
BY other delegates.
Letters were received to-day from
Senators Cockrel of Missouri, and
Plumb OF Kansas, regretting that other
engagements would prevent their at
tendance, but expressing the greatest
interest in the congress and its pro-
posed work.
The attendance of at least 1000 duly
accredited delegates is already assured
and il is probable that twice that many
will be present.
The lesson Of the Kansas City meet.
ing will not be lost on the congress that
meets here.

Tne enormous growth Of the plate
glass industry in the United States is
strikingly illustrated by the request
that the manufacturers are about to
make to the treasury department rela-
tive to the restrictive provisions of the
contract labor law. It is claimed by
these manufacturers that fully 1,50O
skilled workers will be needed within
the present year to equip and run es-
Establishments now nearing completion,
and that these laborers must be brought
from Europe, as they cannot be obtained
here. Ordinarily protected industry
makes slow and steady growth, educat-
ing new workmen as they are needed.
The plate glass industry, however, IN
two years time has increased so rapidly
that glaziers' glass is no longer import
ed. but entirely supplied for home con-
sumption by our own glass works. The
following table, which is furnished by
reliable authority. will best indicate
the growth of this industry:

The writer arrived here on the morn
Ing of the 27th ult. to aid Rev. J. B.
Foster, pastor of the First Baptist
church OF Weston, Ia series Of meet
ings. Weston IL a very nice httle city
OF from 500 TO T5o Inhabitants, nestled
nj the foot of the Blue Mountain range,
with fine body of farming land around
lt, and many thrifty, honest, law
abiding "sots of the sOll' occupying
this large, rich domain; but to one just
from the thriving and fast-growing
little city of Lebanon, Weston seems
to be II very quit, not to say dull town.
Perhaps this extreme quietness Is due
larwely TO the failure OF the crops year
before last, and the low price OF grain
last year, In connection with the poor
facilities for transportation afforded by
the u. T.. Ry. and the high price
charged for the transportation OF grain,
which Is absolutely paralyziug the ag-
ricultural industry of Eastern Oregon,
Washington and idaho. The great
necessity Is an ssopen river"
The winter here has been delighttul
so far. There was considerable rain
during the early part of the winter
but no snow, except on the mountains
aud the higher parts of the plain, until
Yesterday morning, when we had
Snowfall of about three inches. The
