Governor Boios is entitled to all the
booon be has obtained from Iowa. Hie
strength with the people come* from hie
holiest, frank way of treating public
questions, and his clear, direct and
homely statements, which can be under-
etood by all. The following, from a
recent speech, is in his best rein. After
telling how the people rebuked the Re
publicans two years ago, and stating that
the issues are the same this campaign as
they ware in 1800, be said:
“Unless a great many of you who were
then dissatisfied have changed your
minds in regard to the McKinley bill
you will vote for the Democratic ticket
as you did then. Our Republican
friends say you did not know what you
were doing then. They say the wicked
Democrats scared you out of your
senses, and you deposited your ballots
ignorant of what they meant; that now
you can show bow much mistaken yon
were, return to the Republican party
.andhelp to maintain this80 percent,
tariff. The question is whether you
were mistaken then, or ought to stand
by tbs judgment you then formed and
expressed.”
Having explained how it is that soma
farmers succeed by working sixteen
hours a day, while their wives work
eighteen and their children tenor twelve
hours, in spite of their heavy and unjust
burdens of taxation, and that even then
success is often due more to the rise in
the value of their land than to the sale
of their farm products, he said:
Some of the crops of your farms,
however, are still sold at less than cost
The same is true of cattle. It is true of
spring wheat, which is selling in
localities at fifty cents a bushel; it is
true of winter wheat, which is fetching
sixty cents a bushel. Now, 1 ask you, as
the farmers of Iowa, men who owe some
thing to your own families, to compare
your situation with that of the manufac
turers, whom our Republican friends tell
os we must protect in order to enable
them to carry on business profitably.
Whtra is the property of this nation?
Today 40,000 families own half of the
property in the United States, and that
property is tha product of labor and
nothing else on the face of the earth.
And you, the laboren, are asked to vote
for a policy that makes every single
necessity yon use cost more than it
should in order that some manufacturer
in another state can pile up his fortnne
—not by hundreds of thousands, but by
millions in many cases. I ask yon. Is it
just to yourselves or just to your fami
lies? Stop and think.
You may have been Republicans;
your fathers may have been Republicans
before yon; bnt what is your duty? Here
is a live issue—not a dead one: not an
iasne upon which yon were a Republican
or Democrat thirty years ago, bnt a live
one. The Republicans say that it is
yonr duty, the farmers of Iowa, to go to
the lulls and vote for a policy that
makes yon put yonr bands into yonr
pockets and contribute of your hard
earuinga to build up and make profit
able somebody rise's industry. Do you
believe that is fair or just? If you do,
go and vote the Republican ticket, but
ask tlie forgiveness of your wires and
children after you have cast yonr ballot.
Don’t forgit that, for you owe a duty
to yonr families—a duty that is over and
above any duty you owe to any manu
facturer or any political party. If yon
will I* jsv t tr» yourselves and just to
your families, forget all party prejudice
and remember that a responsibility is
up. .a your shoulders for the vote you
cn-'l. If yon do this I know where your
votes will go—tuey will go into the
Democratic boxes ami help to bring
alxott *.u«s of the grandest reforms ever
advocated in the world.
Th* Vibratory Principle Applied Is th*
Head by an Electrical Helmet.
Among all the methods more or lees
odd in appearance applied to the treat
ed nervous diseases, there are few
more orignal than the one that has been
employed for some time at the Salpe-
triere by Professor Charcot It is the
THE GLASS TBUST.
CONSUMERS PAY-THE TARIFF AND
NOT THE FOREIGNERS.
Solid Foundations.
Thou who oppose tariff reform de
lude themselves if they suppose it rests
wholly upon appeals to selfish consider-
c lions ami the promise of advantage,
ri?ht or wrong, or that our only hope of
wiuuing depends upon arousing animos-
i:y between different interests among
onr people. While we do not propoee
that those whose welfare we champion
shall lie blind to the advantages accru
ing to them from our plan of tariff re
form, and while we are determined that
these advantages shall not be surren
dered to the blandishments of greed and
avarice we still claim nothing that has
not underlying it moral sentiment and
considerations of equity and good con
science.
Because oar cause rests upon such
foundations sordidness and selfishness
cannot destroy it The fight for justice
ami right is a clean and comforting
one. and because the American people
love justice and right onn must be
a winning fight.—Grover Cleveland’s
Providence Speech.
Trad*. Tariff* and Labor.
Trade, as we have seen, is a mode of
production, and the tendency of tariff
restrictions on trade is to lessen the
production of wealth. Bat protective
tariffs also operate to alter the distribu
tion of wealth by imposing higher prices
on some citixens and giving extra profits
to others. This alteration of distribution
-In their favor is the impelling motive
with those moat active in procuring the
imposition of -protective duties, and in
warning workmen of the dire calamity
that will come upon them If such duties
are repealed. Bnt in what way
protective tariffs affect the distribution
of wealth in favor of labor? The direct
object and effect of protective tariffs is
to raise the price of commodities. Bnt
men who work for wages are not sellers
of comiucriiiie*—they are sellers of
labor. They sell labor in ordsr that they
may bey commodities. How can the
Increase in the price of commodities
benefit them?—-Henry George.
There is a serious disease of the nerv
ous system, characterised by an inces
sant trembling of the hands, a stooping
attitude and an odd gait, that makes it
as if the invalid was going to pre
cipitate himself bead foremost. It U
the trembling palsy, also called Parkin-
disease, a sort of painful nervous
disorder that deprives the nnfortnnate
who is afflicted with it of rest and sleep.
Mr. Charcot a long time ago learned
from tome invalids who were troubled
with this infirmity that they derived de
cided relief from long rides on a railroad
or in a carriage. The more the vibra
tions caused in the compartments by the
train running at fall speed.and the more
the carriage was jolted over an uneven
pavement, the more the relief experi
enced. At the end of a day’s journey
they felt better and experienced an inex
pressible comfort. One of them con
ceived the idea of having himself
wheeled stout for honrs in one of those
heavy carts used for carrying paving
stones. Contrary to the experience of
all travelers, those afflicted with trem
bling palsy felt fresher and more active
on alighting from the cars. The longer
the trip lasted, awl the worse the line,
the more durable was their improvement.
Such testimony, coming from various
sources, was not lost. It was for Mr.
Charcot the starting point of a most
curious tlierapentical application. Mr.
Charcot had an anuclurir constructed,
to which a to and fro motion was given
by means Of an electrical windlass.
Dong before the invention of the vibrat
ing armchair Dr. Vigouronx conceived
the idea of submitting hysterical patients
to the vibration of a huge tnning fork.
In this way he cured anaesthesias and
muscular stiff joints. Other physicians—-
Boudet, of Paris, and Mortimer, of
Granville, applied vibrating rods to the
treatment of neuralgias (facial uenralgia
in particular) and headaches. Granville
devised a small electric hammer, anal
ogous to the hammer of electrio -hells,
and that was applied to the painful
point. Under the influence of the shock,
repeated hundreds of times within a
•hurt period, the pain ceased.
The method was some time ago singu
larly improved by Dr. Gillis de la Tour-
•tte, a pupil of Mr. Charcot. He had an
apparatus constructed for the treatment
of megrims and nervoua headaches: it
waa the vibrating helmet. Imagine a
helmet of the model of that of old times,
and ray analogous, as to structure, to
the conformator of hatters. It is iu
fact formed of ateel plates that permit
of its fitting the head perfectly. Upon
this helmet, in lien of. crest, there is a
•mall alternating current motor of pe
culiar construction that makes about
600 revolutions per minute. At every
revolution a uniform vibration is propa
gated to the metallic plates, and is trans
mitted to the cranium that they embrace.
The cranial walla thus vibrate in their
ensemble, and the vibrations are natur
ally transmitted to tbe entire cerebral
apparatus. The sensation is not dis
agreeable. The nnmber and intensity
of the vibrations, moreover, may be
varied according to tbe tolerance of the
subject In a few minutes a sort of gen
eral lassitude is experienced, with a
tendency to sleep.
The vibrating helmet has already been
applied to a large nnmber of neuras
thenic invalids, the majority of whom
have experienced good results from it
The process succeeds also against hemi-
crania, and as this is quite a common
affection, for which no surely efficacious
remedy is known, the helmet will in a
short time be seen to come into vogue.—
Nature.
Aa Opening far Inventors.
Au engineer has written to one of the
dailies to advocate tho diaoxygenation
of glass. He argues that since steel is
made by disoxygenatiug molten cast
iron by blowing air through it, by a pro
cess reversely analogous glass can lie
softened into toughness and flexibility.
He maintains that glass, which is not
only much cheaper than iron, bnt much
denser and tougher, can lie pnt to any
of the uses of iron excepting electrical
conduction, while for drain pipes and
water pipes it would be uneqnaled.
The champion of disoxygenated glass
maintains that it could to used Instead
of tin and copper, and would replace
iron for rigging and fencing, etc., as it
possesses almost three times the tensile
strength of the best wrought iron; fur
thermore, he regards it as not improba
ble that vessel* built of glass beams and
plates will eventually replace our pres
ent steel ships, as they would be strong
er, cheaper and one-half lighter.—Pitts-
barer Dispatch.

The window glass industry well illus
trates the effects of “protection” gone to
eeed. This industry was a right smart
infant when Hamilton left a duty of
per cent, on it in 1791. We consume
abcxit $12,000,000 worth of window glass
a year, one-third of which is imported
at an avenge duty of 08 per cent. Dur
ing the last ten years we have paid more
than $15,000,000 actual duties to customs
officers, and $90,000,000 more of tariff
bonus to our protected manufacturers.
Forty-five million dollars tax that our
wage earners may receive more than
they otherwise would do! Bnt all of the
window glqs* workers in the land have
not received $45,000,000 during the last
ten years. Hence it would be profitable
for the United States to quit monkeying
with the glass infant by abolishing the
duty entirely and to distribute directly
to the window glass workers the amount
now extracted from the pockets of the
people by this tax. The workers could
live in idleness at summer and winter
resorts, and would be most valuable cit
izens, for they would spend freely and
make business boom in many industries.
Bnt the innumerable advantages of this
method over tbe present unprofitable
one cannot be estimated.
Now has 100 yean of protection pnt
this industry on a firm footing? On the
contrary, it is in a demoralized condi
tion for no other reason, as the glaea
workers themselves ere beginning to
recognize, than that of overprotectiou.
With natural gas—the cheapest and
best fuel in the world—and with the
best natural facilities for production,
the industry is in a backward condition.
We make poor glass and are less able to
compete with Belgium than < ver before.
As The National Glass Budget of Sept.
17, 1893, puts it, “Is it not a shame for
us to allow that our window glass is in
ferior to the imported because our highly
protected manufacturers have not taken
the trouble to bnild the l»cst furnaces
and our highly paid workmen have uot
taken tho pains to do their work care
fully?”
Below are given the present wholesale
prices in Belgium, etc. Present whole
sale prices iu Belgium, from which all
our imports of window glass come, and

sumer by the Wiudow Glurs trust:

Total-.9 boxes $29.00?* $15X1 $12.15
Nine boxes of the above sizes of glass
can be and are brought in Belgium for
$15.31. When imported the duties
amount to $13.15. Freight and insur
ance amount to $1.75, making a total
cost laid down here, duty paid, $39.21.
The Glass trust charges exactly $29.06%
for the some amount of glass.
Tbe American people, if they had not
become familiar with such methods,
would bring indictments against the
American Window Glass Manufacturers*
association and its subtrust, the United
Glass company, for fraudulent manage
ment and for receiving money from con
sumers under false pretenses. Tho
standing committees of the association
area board of control, a price list com
mittee, district and national wage com
mittees and a tariff committee. Each
does faithfnl work in its own field, and
production, wages, tariffs aud prices
ore “regulated” regardless of the inter
ests of consumers, who l»y good right
own a half interest in the business with
out haring a single representative on
any of the committees.
As an example of tbn wav in which
the consumer is defraud it may be
mentioned that out of 103 window glass
plantain the United State* 41 ore idle,
and have been fur some time, and that
the others are only permitted to run on
an average eight or nine months a year.
The Window Glass company, a corpora
tion which owns 17 of the 108 plants, has
a capacity of 28 furnaces, with 250 pots
and a 24-blower continuous tank. Of
these plants 9%, with a capacity of 12
furnaces with 116 pots, are idle. The
capital invested in them is, however,
earning as much os that invested in ac
tive plants.
The taxpayers are just beginning to
find out what use is made of their
money, and they are beginning to swear.
It is not nnlikely that they will some
day stop paying bounties to industries
that are controlled by trusts.

Utnr) Georjfc’* Opinion.
If there is one country iu the worl.l
where the assumption that protection is
necetwary to the uevc-lopmetU of manu
factures aud the “diversification of in
dustry” is conclusively disproved by the
most obvious facts, tust country is the
United States. The first settlera iu
America devoted tin-native* to trade
with the Indiana cud to ih«>se extractive
industries which a sparse population al
ways finds most profitable, the produce
of the forest, of the soil and of tho fish
eries constituting their staples, while
even brick and tiles were at first im
ported from the mother country. But
without any protection, and iu spite of
British regulations intended to prevent
the growth of manufactures in the colo
nies, one industry after another took
root as population increased, until at
the time of the first tariff act—in 1789-
all the more important manufactures,
including those of iron and textiles, had
become firmly established. As up to
this time they had grown without any
tariff, so must they have continued to
grow with the increase of population,
even if we hud never had a tariff.
