A Window Tax.

Some two hundred years ago the
English government imposed what
was called window tax. A GER
tain fixed sum was assessed upon
every window in the kingdom, and
the result was that people built
their houses with fewer and fewer
windows. This tax upon the sun
light of heaven, however, became
finally so unpopular that it had to
be repealed.
In England the window tax was
abolished very long ago, but in
America, "the land of the free, it
survives in another form. The
duties paid on window glass last
year averaged over 1O5 per cent,
and the prices of domestic glass

AMERICAN WHEEL COMPANY.
They Arc An,lous 70 cst rholr Bpslaes

They Are Anxious to Get rholr Busiaess
Again Into Their own Hands.
INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 15.-The A1neri-
can Wheel company, whose affairs are
in the hands of Noble c. Butler, receiv-
er, of this city, is hoping to get posses
sion of its works, and have the receiver
Bhip closed not later than March /.
The company has made a proposition
that if the creditors viii put it again
into possession of its property, it will
pay in cash 10 per cent, of all its indebt-
edness ON or before March 1, 1892. and
10 per cent. Sept. 1, 1892. The remain
der of the indebtedness it offers to pay
in installments of 10 per cent. each, the
last payable Sept. /, 1885.
For all deferred payments the COM
pany will give its promlssory notes bear
ing per cent. interest, and secured by
mortgage on all its property. The total
indebtedness of the company is, in round
numbers, 81 1858 600, and the value of its
manufacturing plants, stock in hand
and outstanding accounts, according to
the company's estimate, is over IS, O0G,-
900. A committee of creditors and the
receiver have made an estimate of value
of these properties, and their estimate
is that the total assets exceed the liabili-
ties by about 500, 900.

AAnAc4J Warning
Kanawha Gazette: There is evil
dence in various quarters that the
contest for the seat in the United
States Senate to be filed by the
next Legislature of this State has
already begun. We wish to remind
the Democrats of West Virginia
that the object of the coming politi-
cal canvass is not necessarily to test
the strength of individual candi-
dates for the Senatorship, but to
elect a Democratic Legislature and
Democratic State officers. If this is
accomplished tho Senatorial ques-
ton and every other question of
purely personal interest must be
subordinated to the one sole object
of carrying the State for the Democ-
racy. As between the different
aspirants for the Senatorship there
is no particular line of policy-no
principle involved. The contest
between Democrats involves only
question of personal ascendancy-of
personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT, if the
question of their relative ability and
efficiency is not to be considered.
The Senatorial question should
therefore not be permitted to in
trude itself in local politics. Can
|didates for the Senatorship should
not be allowed to send agents to the
various counties TO manipulate
county conventions in their indi-
vidual interest. The interests of
the Democratic party of this State
demand that candidates shall be
nominated for the Senate and for
the House of Delegates because of
their efficiency as legislators and
their ability to secure majority of
votes over their Republican COM
petitors, without any reference to
their choice for Senator. Ifthis rule
be strictly adhered to in our sena-
torial district and county conven-
tions it will be possible for the
Democracy to get together and pre-
sent solid and unbroken front to
the enemy in the coming election.
But if this rule be disregarded-if
candidates for the Senatorship be
permitted to manipulate county
conventions in their own interest,
personal chickering's and OBJECTIONS
from our ranks are sure to follow.
We desire to sound this note of
warning in slime. We say to the
Senatorial candidates: Gentlemen,
hands off. You will have abund-
ance of time to present your claims
to the members of the Legislature
after they are elected in November
and before the Legislature is called
upon to choose a Senator in the
following January. We want
strong candidates nominated for
the Legislature in every district and
county. If we succeed in nominat-
ing and electing good men they
will not go wrong when they are
called upon to choose "a United
States Senator.

Governor Fleming has issued the
following proclamation:
The Russian Famine Relief Com

GOVERNMENT PENSIONERS.

or Their Pay WIN Cease.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE attention
of Congressman Newberry was called to
dispatch from Montreal stating IL t
there was much anxiety among persons
residing in Canada and drawing pensions
from the United States government over
his bill providing that no pensions shall
be paid to any person who is not a resi-
dent of the United States
Mr.. Newberry said his measure was a
good one, and its main object was to
bring the pensioners residing in other
countries back to the United States. In
Germany, Austria, Turkey, Egypt, and
in fact, all over the world, he said, there
We're largo numbers of United States
pensioners residing who had no inten-
ton of ever returning to the United
States. They could live abroad cheaper,
and they were raising families, the sons
becoming citizens of foreign countries;
and, in case of war with the United
States, they would fight against their
mother country.

Forward 1t is.

The Democrats of the Ways and
Means Committee have rejected the
policy of inaction towards the tariff
which was urged upon them, and
have unanimously adopted the
policy heretofore announced by Mr..
Springer.
There will be no step backward.
There will be no standing still. The
order is forward to the attack.
The decision is wise and timely.
Even the hesitation was hurting the
party. No political party ever won
or retained power by adopting
"Can't" as its motto. None ever
deserved success by Sinking its
duty, ignoring its promises, conceal
ing its purposes or substituting
words for action.
The policy of attacking the Nc
Kinley tariff by separate bill is un-
doubtedly the best that could be
adopted. There are Republican
Senators upon whom a vast amount
of party pressure. must be brought
to bear to force them into voting
against the interest of their States.
And if the bills were rejected in the
Senate or vetoed by the President
what better issue could the Demo-
Gratis ask in the Presidential cam
paign than to point to measures
passed by a Democratic House to
untax the clothing, fuel and shelter
of the people, which were rejected
by a Republican Senate or vetoed
by Republican PRESIDENT
1t is truly time, as Mr.. Cleve-
land said, when "party courage is
party expediency." The decision
of the Ways and Means Committee
shows that wise and courageous
counsels have prevailed. The new
tariff of denominations will be at
tackled at its most vulnerable points.
The party's pledge and the peoples
will are to be respectfully Y.

TAX ON CIGARETTES.

FER Inousaud.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-The ways and
means committee of the house of repre-
sentltiyes win be petitioned to prepare a
bill invoking the paternal condemnation
of the government upon the cigarette
habit. Representatives Cochran. Cuin-
mings and Stahlneclser, of New York, all
have in their possession bills which they
have been petitioned to introduce. pro-
viding for the suppression Of cigarette
manufacture by imposing an internal
revenue tax of $40 per thousand on all
imported or domestic cigarettes sold In
this country. Accompanying the me-
mortal is statement which says:
Clippings taken from papers throughout
the United States show that during the
past year there have been about one
hundred deaths of young men, mostly
under sixteen years of age, from the effects
of smoking paper wrapped cigarettes. In
some cases there has been an analysis Of
the stomach and in most Instances there
has been foand acid, phosphorus and
arsenic, which is largely used il the
manufacture of cigarette paper. Also.

If for no other reason, the Re-
publican party should be hurled
from power on account of its mis-
management in regard to our navy,
Ever since the war Congress has
been annually appropriating mil
lions of dollars for this department
of the service, and until of very
late years we have been in CON
dition of total weakness in this
respect. When President Cleve-
land toolSNhis seat the United States
could not have contended with the
weakest Nation on the globe in a
maratime struggle. Indeed this
country, was comparatively a
stranger on the high seas. Any
nation could have insulted us with
impunity. 1t is understood that
the reasons for the dilatory policy
pursued with reference to Chill,
was owing to the fact that this great
country had no war vessels suffici-
ent to cope with that little Re-
public. This is a shame. We be.
lieve the figures will bear us out in
the assertion that there has been
money enough spent in the last
quarter of a century to have built
the finest navy in the world. In
stead of this the United States
sinks in rank away down so low,
in regard to her navy, as the small
est of Nations. What has become
of the money! We ought to have
the finest and most formidable navy
on the globe and when the Demc-
Gratis get into power again such a
navy will be built. There was
more done in this direction during
the four years of Clcveland's ad-
ministration than had been done for
twenty years under Republican rule
and that, too, without an increase
in the annual appropriations.
