Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1897-06-08

tice and publicly thank God that
thing for any cause Of humanity or re-
ligion but the other partner in the do
nestle firm approved it. And when 1t
seemed beyond my ability and faith In
God was necessary, she had three
fourths the faith. But know men
who. when they contribute to charita-
bic objects are afraid that the wife
shall find 1t out. What q whitening
curse such woman must be to a good
man!
Then there are others under the
great disadvantage of poverty. Who
ought to get things cheapest? You say
those who have little means. But they
pay more. You buy coal by the ton,
they buy it by the bucket. You buy
flour by the barrel, they buy it by the
pound. You get apparel cheap, because
you pay cash. They pay dear because
they have to get trusted. And the
Bible was right when it said: ''the de-
struction of the poor is their poverty"
Then there are those who made a
mistake in early life, and that over
shadows all their days. do you not
know that that man was once in pris-
on" is whispered. Or, do you know
that that man once attempted suiclde?"
Or, DO you know that that man once
absconded?" Or, ''Do you know that
that man was once discharged for dis
honestly" Perhaps there was only one
wrong deed in the mans life, and that
one act haunts the subsequent half CEN
fury Of his existence.
Others have unfortunate predomi-
nance of some mental faculty, and
their rashness throws them into wild
enterprises, or their trepidation makes
them decline great opportunity, or
there is vein of melancholy in their
disposition that defeats them, or they
have an endowment of over mirth that
causes the impression Of insincerity.
Others have q mighty obstacle in
their personal appearance, for which
they are not responsible. They forget
that God fashioned their features, and
their complexion, and their stature, the
size of their nose, and mouth. and
hands, and feet, and gave them their
gait and their general appearance; and
they forget that much of the worlds
best work and the Church's best work
has been done by homely people; and
that Paul the Apostle is said to have
been hump-backed, and his oversight
weakened by ophthaimia, while many
of the finest in appearance have passed
their time in studying killing attitudes,
and in displaying the richness OF ward
robes-not one ribbon, or vest, or sack,
or glove, or button, or shoe-string of
which they have had brains to earn for
themselves.

roasted to remove the solder that

Utilization of Scrap Tin.

The vast heaps OF scrap tin found
about tin-ware works, aud the
quantities of refuse tin cans that
form such an item in city waste,
have often been made the subject Of
experiment to separate the tin coat
ing from the sheet.iron. Melting
the scrap gives only spongy iron,
and Ike extraction Of the tin by the
action Of acids or chlorine gas is too
expensive, so that hundreds of tons
of this material are wasted every
year, and all the experiments to save
it appear to prove abortive. The
latest experiments, however, seem to
promise cheap method of recover.
ing both the tin and iron in pure
and useful shape. The tin scraps
are placed in a furnace where the
temperature and the supply of air
can be carefully adjusted This
gives roasting in free air that
causes the film of tin on the iron
to oxidize. The alloy of tin and
iron under the film OF tin is next
oxidized, and then the scrap is
taken from the furnace, and the
coating of oxides on the iron is
shaken off by simple machinery.
This leaves the iron in a com
paratively pure state, while the
powdered oxides may be smelted
with other tin ores, or, as is pre-
ferred by the inventor of the process,
they may be submitted to the action
OF hot sulphuric acid, which dis
solves the oxide of iron, leaving the
tin untouched. The tin may then
be separated from the solution Of
sulphate Of iron and melted, while
the solution may be evaporated to
dryness and then placed in retorts to
recover the sulphuric acid, the
residue in the retorts being valuable
in making paints. The waste heat
from the retorts is used to assist in
roasting the scrap, and in evapora-

America and Hawaii,

The London Times said in 1894:
at must be owned that the conduct
OF Queen Liliuokalani herself
appears to have been SO imprudent
as to afford the American Executive
an opportunity of withdrawing the
offers they had made her. President
Cleveland requires the Queen, as
condition of his requesting the
Provisional Government to resign, to
promise a full amnesty, and to
undertake the fulfilment of all its
bona.fde obligations. To these not
unreasonable demands the Queen
at first refused to accede. She was
warned that they would be insisted
upon, and that the efforts of the
President to procure her restoration
would case if they were not COM
piled with, She has at last yielded,
but owing to her dilatory conduct
American politicians may argue
that the Presidents offer no longer
holds good. Technically that may
be true, but will such. a piece OF
pettifogging commend itself to the
judgment of the American people 2
The President has declared himself
prepared to co operate in any legis'
lative plan consistent with American
honor, integrity, and morality Can
the recognition OF Government
described by the President himself
as imposed by force and fraud on
the Hawaiian people from part of
such a plan9 The Presidents offer
may indeed have lapsed by elfluxion
of time, but the moral grounds on
which it was based cannot have van
ished altogether, even in the stress
of American politics, in less than a
month"

DEATH OF JOHN SING.

On Saturday, Aug. 2lst, the spirit of
John Sing passed into the unknown
land, from whence none have ever re-
turned. The immediate cause of his
death was quick consumption. Mr.. Sing
was an old Union soldier, and pen
sioner. He was horn in Sevierville Co.,
Tenn, and was about 81 years Of age az
the time Of his death. Mr.. Sing left
Tennessee about two years ago and came
with his family to Oregon and settled
