The Cost Of Living.

The one thing absolutely certain
about the new tariff bill is that it will
increase the cost of living-The World.
n. Y.
This same statement was hawked
about the country by the free-trade
papers in the fall of 1890. and subse-
quently while the Mckinley tariff was
in force. Comparing it with the adver.
Using columns OF the World a few
days after the Dingley tariff went into
effect, We were surprised to find that
only two of the large department
stores were advertising in the World.
but We quote from them both as fol.
lows:
We cannot remember a time when
prices were more favorable to consum-
ers.
This was from the advertisement Of
a very large department store on
Broadway. 1t gives the lie direct to the
editorial statement of Mr.. Pulitzer that
the new tariff bill will increase the
cost Of living" We quote again:
Liberal reductions have been made
throughout our entire store; in some
cases We have cut our regular prices in
half.
This is the advertised announce
ment of Que of the largest Sixth ave
nue. department stores We can hardly
reconcile how the Dingley bill will
increase the cost of living when this
large store. which sells almost every
possible article of daily demand and
consumption. announces that I'VE have
cut our regular prices in half
These contradictory statements from
the editorial and advertising columns
Of the World lead to but one conelu-
sion. One Of them is false. Is it that
the advertised announcements in your
paper are misleading to the people. Mr.
Pulitzer? Or Is it that you are DELHI
erately deceitful in your editorial col
umns? These questions must be set
tied between yourself ana your adver-

C2St-WOlded Joints.

In paper before the convention Of
the American Street Railway Associa-
ton at st. Louis, Superintendent w. X.
Bowen of the Chicago City road recent
ly gave some decisive data showing the
value of cast-welded joints. From this
statement it appears that of the II 900
cast-welded joints made on his road in
1895, only 154 were lost, and these
breakages were due to flaws in the
metal, comparative tests having shown
the joint to be actually far stronger
than the rail itself. These joints are
made in simple manner After the
rail ends have been scraped or filed off
so as to present bright surface, a cast
iron mould is placed around the joint,
the fit being made so exact as to pre-
vent the escape of any metal from the
mould; the metal is then poured in.
and the outer part of the casting being
chilled by the mould, sets first, form
ing crust which retains the molten
metal. AS this crust contracts faster
than the interior, the latter is forced
up against the rails and a more Der
feet contact is insured; the operation
results, in word, in joint that is
solid and continuous.

Persons who take violent muscular
exercise. are greatly benefited by the
use of sugar or pure candies. Tour
lists who climb high attitudes crave
sweet, and are greatly benefited by il.
The value of sugar as a part of the
diet of soldiers has been clearly de-
termined. 1t is said that after violent
muscular exertion the quantity of su-
gar in the blood is greatly reduced, but
that energy is rapidly regained by eat
ing pure candy or other good sweets.

rire-proof Building Material


A Boston inventor has put out new
building material which is said to be
absolutely fre-proof. 1t is made OF
ground marble or stone, coal cinders
and sawdust mixed with magnesia and
some chemicals, the names Of which
have not been made public, and as the
secret is guarded with jealous care,
they are not likely to be. The mate
rial is ground to a semi-liQuid con-
sistency and is then poured into molds.
There is no burning. as the hardening
process is a chemical one. There are
also fire-proofing blocks and bricks
made of coal cinders, sawdust and 9TH
er materials These bricks weigh about
IL or two-thirds as much as those OF
terra Gotta of the same size and cost
but about half as much.

The mantle Of the Auer incandescent

dred millions a year for the tiIers Of
our soil, and that we are also deep in
the tin-plate manufacturing business.
and that long before this presidential
term is out we shall produce in our
shops all the tin-plate we want, and
there are from twenty to twenty-five
millions a year for American working
men to earn and distribute. Now,
these are the things that give a boom
to prosperity. Contrast this with the
vulgar Justification that low silver
made wheat low, and all that rotten
ness of the Democratic Imagination.
When Bryan assumed with an af-
fectatiOn of solemnity, to be student
and a man of deep thought, he begged
the people who came out to see the
show to study this silver question"
He had looked into it. oh. yes. he had
even studied it! And he said wheat
would soon be down to twenty five
cents a bushel if silver were not made
free at the mints! The people have
had an object-lesson in the rise Of
wheat and the fall of silver at the same
time. and as the country rises in pros
perity Bryan falls.
The recent enormous fall in the price
of silver is driving Mexico to consider
the advisability of going to the gold
standard. The example of Japan, Rus
STA, Peru, and, in fact, all the intelli-
gent nations of the world is having it's
effect upon the statesmen of that coun-
try, and, followed, as it is. by the BUSH
ness troubles growing out of the great
fall in the value of silver, warns them
that they must fall in line with other
civilized nations if they expect to MAIN

Fire Alarms.

At the regular meeting of the fire
department Friday evening, the
question of fire alarms came up and
it was decided to take some action.
A committee consisting of D. Ander-
son, G. H, Babcock, A. L. johnson
and H. B. Garretson, was appointed
to ascertain the cost and lay the mat
ter before the council for considera-
ton. The department have two
plans in view. Ehe first is to place
one alarm at Mr.. Hammond's corner.
one at the Swedish church. one at
Walter Aagaard's corner and one at
JAS. Ramage's lumber Office, each
station will be able to sound an
alarm at the power house. The esti-
mated cost of this, is 5000.
The other plan is, If the council
will not defray this expense, the fire
men will, out of their own funds,
place an alarm at the hose house TO
signal the power house in case of fire,
while the latter plan would be Of
some service, yet, it would not pe as
beneficial as the former.
The ADVANCE took up this question
last spring and was favored by the
fire department but no action was
taken. Now that they have taken it
up it appears that the matter should
be given favora ble consideration. It
is true there have been no fires but
that is no protection for the future.
Consider the question of time that
would he consumed in giving an
alarm of a fire in the Clary addition
in the night at the present time.
The fire would gain. an uncomfortable
Roadway and probably reach other
buildings, or under the most favor
able circumstances it would take
considerable time to communicate
with the fine signal from the Clary
addition, also consider the difference
in the time in giving an alarm from
any district where alarm stations are
contemplated, and the time that
would necessarily elapse now in case
of fire. Asst is now, the hose house
is locked and the key would have to
be hunted up to ring the bell or get
out the apparatus; the phone at the
village Office could be used but con
siderable time would expire before an
intelligent alarm could be given, with
the station alarm, the power house
would know at once what district to
sound an alarm for, and the depart
ment would not have to go hunting
around after the fire.
The damage done by fire on ac-
count Of the delay in getting the APP
paratus around would be large in
comparison with the expense of put.
ting in these few signals. There are
numerous valuable reasons that can
be given for the placing Of these.
alarms, while none can be said
against them except the cost, which
| il small, and it is believed that the
idea will meet with favor among the
property holders.
