THE WIRE GAUZE OVEN DOOR.
Those who have Charter Oak Stoves, or
may wish to buy one with Wire GauZe oven
Doors may learn some facts that will prove
advantageous, and those who contemplate
purchasing a stove soon, can be practically
informed why the Charter Oak is considered
by all the best.
RoAsTING.-There is not a cooking stove
or range stove made, except the Charter Oak,
but what the shrinkage is 40 per cent A ten
pound roast cooked in tight oven, when
done, will weigh six pOOnds. This loss is in
the shrinkage of the juice, which is the vital
part of the meat Off which we live; but cook
ed in a Charter Oak with the Wire Gauze
oven Doors, 1t will weigh nine and One-half
pounds. No basting or attention required.
And bread will be a quarter larger, keep for
ever, and one of the peculiar features is that
IL will never mould.
BRoILING.-It is done in the oven without
smell, smoke or turning. Steaks cooked in
1--WE minutes, top and bottom at the same
time, using the round steak, and 1t Will be
more juicy than tenderloin cooked over the

the goods for less money than they nave
been sold for in this country during the
past fifteen years. If OR people hao 81
tempted to start the tin plate INDUSTRY
without first being protected by this duty
the foreign producers, having an advant-
age in cheapness of labor, would at once
have put down the price, and IN that way
would have prevented our own people
from engaging in the industry, precisely
as they did several years ago. Win TINS

tin plate may be placed by the foreign pro-
Queer, in order TO get into our markets.
and prevent our own manufacturers from
selling their goods, he will be compelled
to pay this duty first which was placed SO
high as to give our manufacturers an ao-
vantage over those in the Old World
The large amount Of increase in the sup
ply of tin plate which viii be assured II
our manufacturers should succeed IN pro-
ducing even one half Of what we consume
will of itself drive down the price Of tin
plate all over the world. Just so long as
the tariff is high enough TO cover the dif-
ference between wages here and in the
Old World, with enough more added to 1t
TO give our own manufacturers control OF
our markets. it will always carry with 1t
something with which to pay the higher
wages IN this country.
This is brief abstract of the argument
Of Congressman R. G. Horr, Of Michigan.
in reply to the question of an Ohio voter.
The letter closes with the following clear
statement of the principle of the protective
policy as it has already been successfully
applied to the permanent establishment
OF valuable industries in the United
States:
Now, then, If 1t shall turn out that our men
constantly receive nearly double the wages they
get on the other side OF the ocean, and If it shall
turn out that the tin plate is. reduced in price
SO that our people, who consume it, purchase 1t
Tor less money than they have been paying for
u Tor several years past, during the time when
we have made none in this country, will
there be anything to theorize about after that?
Won't these facts, II they shall exist settle this
entire CONTROVERSY Precisely that result has
been reached with more than forty Industries
that can be named here in the United States
within the last thirty years.
II by levy.ng q tariff duty on manufactured
goods in the United States we succeed in build
ing u p an industry in this country; II We aiso
actually pay better wages all the while than they
pay III the countries OF the Old World, where
they produce similar goods, aud ii the goods are
invariably sold to the ultimate consumers for
less money than they paid before We established
the industry; and then, more than that, if all
this results in keeping in the United States
large amount of money which would otherwise
be sent abroad, what more does any one want to
know about il?

WHO PAYS THE TAX?

The Democratic orators are never weary
of telling the farmer and the working man
"the tariff is a tax" 4 Democratic tariff
for revenue only is certainly tax, but q
protective tariff is not tax in the same
sense. Major Mckinley, in one of his
great speeches in Ohio, answered the ques-
ton "Who pays the taxi" as follows:
The duty on salt is p 40 cents barrel, or u
cents 10J pounds 1t can be purchased for 80
cents a bushel where II is manufactured, and so
cents a barrel in barrel which costs 20 cents,
which makes the cost of the salt, If the governor
be right, s cents. The duty on wire nails was
"a cents pound. We reduced IL to 2lS cents
They can be bought at the place they are made
for 2-l0 cents pound. Who pays the tax?
Cut nails can be bought for $500 cents a
pound. Steel rails can be bought for $50 ton,
Sc above the average price in Liverpool The
tariff is sl3.A ton.
The duty on Hnseed oil is 81 cents q gallon,
and on the farmers flaxseed y cents a bushel
The Oil sells at Sc cents a gallon. In London il
linseed oil should sell here for IS cents gallon

CONGRESSMAN HORR ON TIN
PLATE.

When protection seeks to establish a
new enterprise in the United States the
difference between the wages of the United
States and Of the Old World is ALWAYS
taken into account in fixing the amount
of duty to be levied SO as 10 insure the
establishing of the industry. Under the
protective tariff our workmen have con-
stantly received nearly twice the amount
Of wages paid for similar work in the Old
country, and yet steel rails have been re-
duced in price from 500 a ton down to
$50 ton here in the United States and we
make all We use. our competition has
made the price in England become cheaper
and cheaper, and the tariff Of $3.50 on
each ton still enables our people to paw
higher wages than they do in England
and yet TO control our market. Our work
men have received nearly double the wages
they get in England, and vet steel rails
are enormously reduced in price so
that our people who consume them pur-
chase them for far less money than they
ever paid before We imposed the protective
duties and established the steel rail indus
try. What has been done in steel rails
and with more than forty other industries
in the United States within thirty years il
IS fairly expected viii be done with tin
plate. For the last fifteen years there has
been no tin plate manufactured IN the
United States. The Mckinley bill places
4 duty OF , 2-lo cents per pound on all tn
plate manufactured abroad AMI i'm
ported into this country. The pas
sage Of that bill has already IN
duced over thirty different concerns to go
into the manufacturing Of tin plate in the
United States. Several Of them are now
making tin Plate, and a large number OF
them ara building extensive plants for the
purpose Of manufacturing the steel plates
from which the tin plate is made, and also
for the purpose Of making tin Plates. The
men who are entering upon this business
are perfectly satisfied that they can make
tn plate aud pay the high wages now SO

POOR CLEVELAND.

The Boston Herald is the ahlest organ

for election in lSSi. and for reelection IN
lsSS. To the influence of the Herald and
the Springfield Republican Cleveland owed
his best support in New England. The
action OF Cleveland in helping 10 form the

to the New England Independents. and
those Of New York represented bv the
