THE TRANSC RIPT. Retablished Sept. 6, 18600. by Nat. P. Brown & Co; NEVADA CITY, NEVADA CO., CALIFORNIA BROWN & CALKINS. —— WEDNESDAY. . JAN. 5, 1898. TiE SOUTH MOVING. From a purely agricultural free-trade commanity the South has within a few years developea bustling manufacturing centres where the spirit of protection to home industry. runs strong in the minde of the people. The first part of this statement is evidenced by the fact __ that the cotton mannfactorets of New England have been conipelied to -announce a reduction in’the wages of their employes, while the fact that the protective sentiment is gaining ground is clearly shown by the increased and steadily increasing protective sentiment from the Southern States in Congress. The Republican protective representation in the present Congress is greater than in any. previous year in the history of the country. A BUSINESS BAROMETER. There is no better barometer of the business condition of the country than the developments of the holiday season. When times are bad, Christmas gifts aro few and inexpensive; when the people are prosperous and well employed the fact is apparent in the more numer~ © 18 recognitions of the custotis of the occasion. Shop-keepers, the expre:s companies, and the postmasters of the country report the business of the holi’ day season to have been unusually heavy, which shows that the promised ~. improvement in business under Re‘publican rule is being kept. be Xe The nierry war agaiust Secretary Gage, because of his financial propositions, goes on. Of course it comes from men who are opposed to making dollars out of a dollar’s worth. of material. It cannot be expected thatthe class of men who insist upon something:fornothing will be satisfied with a proposition to make the dollars of . B the country really worth what they profess to be. Reports from Indiana show that the glass factories of that_ State increased the wages of fifteen thousand employes ~asa Christmas gift, and accompany this with a statement that there is ‘plenty of work in prospect, the entire stocks of glass on hand having been exhausted. The advance in wages ranges from twelve—totwenty per cent. INDIA RUBBER. Tests by Which the Quality of the Ma terial May Be Established. Some few years ago Lieutenant Vladimiroff of the Russian navy made a series of experiments to establish the testing of rubber goods on a sound and sat. isfactory basis, the following being the main conclusions at which he arrive. It will be seen that the tests advocated are physical unes, as he came to the ¢ clusion that chemical testing gave . reliable results. First.—India rubber should not give the slightest sign of superficial cracks on being bent to anangleof 180 deafter five hours’ exposure in a closed air bath to a temperature of 125 degrees C. The test pieces should be about-6 centimeters thick. Second. —RuLber containing not more than 50 per cent by weight of metallic oxides should stretch to five tinter its “length without breaking. “~Third.—Pure caoutchouc free from all foreign matter, except the sulphui necessary™for its vtleanization, should stretch seven is its length withoni breaking. Fourth. -The autineion measured immediately-after. rupture “should not _ exceed 12 pér cent.cf the orizinallength of the test piece. The test pieces shoul be from 3 to 12 millimeters wide, anc not more than 6 millimeters thick and 8 centimeters long. Fifth.—The percentage of ash gives a certain indication of the degreo of softness, and may form a basis for th: choice between different qualities for certain purposes. Any excesses of sulphur over that required for vulcanization should be removed at the works, and should not ap pear on the surface of any object. . Now, these tests on the whole seem very well calculated to give useful indi-eation to enginvers as to-the quality o’ the goods they are buying, only v would interpolate here the remark that unless a good price is paid for the rmbber. it is no use submitting it to sucb physical tests as these. India rubber substitutes made from oi! and ‘‘recovered rubbers’’—that_is,old rubber worked up again with oil—have rie like the elasticity appertaining sound rubber, and they are quite: as *yle 01 standing the elongation ot. heat tests mentioned. —Engineering. ; A sea captain has found that the sail« of a ship when filled with a number of emall holes bear it along more rapidlythan. when they are perfectly whole.

If the barrister does not care to undertake the labor for the amount of money allowed or for any other reason, he advises the solicitor to go elsewhere. If he accepts the responsibility, the solicitor leaves the amount of the fee in coin with the brief, so that the barrister has his pay in advance. This ie the almost invariable custom. The only exceptions are in cases of close friendship between the solicitors and barristers and where there is a large amount of litigation in which both are involved.
