Evening Star Newspaper, December 8, 1890, Page 4

MONDAY. THE EVENING STAR bas the fallest Local Ciresiation of any Newspaper in the Werld, end as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers pablished in Washington. In the three Baltimore districts the vote on conferring representation upon women in the general conference of the Methodist G@hareh stood: 1,484 for; 2.373 against— & majority of 889 against representation by women. Baltimore votes in the same way in which most of the eastern cities have decided, but in the wost the voting is all the other way, and it is now thought that the to admit women to representation will be carried by the popular vote. The women are the active working body in the churches. If they wish this privilege they will undonbt- edly secure it. To remove the prohibition against sach representation does not put any woman in the conference who doea not desire to go, and does not effect voting for women by women for such positions, in places where the feeling is that these particular services are Detter rendered by men. In the eastern churches whose women have indicated by re- fraining from voting or by voting against representation by their sex that on all accounts they favor men for convention delegates, the representation will evidently continue to be male, even if the abstract right be given to the women. In the west the privilege, if granted, will doubtleas be utilized to a considerable ex- tent. But in any event only # small percentage, and that the least self-assertive part, of the ebureh’s legislature will be compored of repre- sentatives of the sex which constitutes over two- thirds in number of the Methodist membership. ‘The fight has, however. only begun. It will goon next spring, eummer and fall when the annual conferences meet. Thee with the General Conference are the legislative chambers of the Methodist Church. That Chnreb, which has shown great conruge in the past in dealing with troublesome questions, will settle this one in a mannet azreesble to the wishes and welfare of that comm! - te The decision of the census committee of the House in favor of adopting the number of 356 for the membership during the next decade, each representing 173.901 persons, appears to give satisfuctien to states that would lose mem- bers onder any other apportionment. While the number is objectionable on the score of in- creasing the size of the House, it has been gen- erally nnderstood that an increase was inevita- ble; and as it had to be made, an increase that was measurably fair toall sections and observed the principle of rewarding the growing states was obviously the one to be adopted. The gain of members is so placed thut no state ex- cept Nebraska cbtains more than two new members and no state whatever losexa member. Of the 2% additions the north and west secure 18, the south and southwest 6, the republican party 17. the demoerntic party 7, placing the states in their party relations before the late elections. But if these relations are in part, at least, to be changed to concede the democrats @ permanent rather than a temporary advan- tage im such statex as Michigan, Nebraska, &c., the democratic guin under the proposed ap- portionment will be greater. The figures are apparently a# fair as any that have been pro- posed, which stand a chance of adoption, tak- ing all interests into consideration. EE posed new party flits in the background, but le the contention adopts as its platform an amended St. Louis platform. It provides for the froe coinage of silver and enr- Fency expansion by the issue of treasury notes without the intervention of banks—the issue to be based on the products of industry, but, de- tails being omitted, the snb-treasury plan is neither endorsed nor condemned. This is significant. Another modification of principles that seems wine to the Jay intellect is the «ub- stitution of government regulation for absolute coutrol and ownership of railway lines and tele- graph companies, but the platform gives the Power to assume such control and ownership ‘on the failure of the plan of regulation to work satisfactorily. —-e2—____ The Young Men-with-overcoats-to-spare- temporarily Protective Association is not in favor of any legislation whereby it shall cost pawnbroker any more to conduct his business than is absolutely necemary. A committee from that organization has been anxiously watching the House and Senate District com- mittees’ proceedings. — ‘The holders and boomers of real estate in snd about Riverside. where rest the remains of General Grant, apparently possess a power which the whole strength of the national legis Intare and public opinion are helpless to break OF to resist. ———— In the naval power of the world the United States occupies sixth plaice, notwithstanding no account is taken of the coal scows, car flat and other aquatic constructions in our waters which have come into competition, not to say collision, with our war vessels, —— The Farmers’ Alliance will hold its next an- nual meeting in Washington in November of next year and a portion of the assemblage will lap over into December gnd continue through- ut the long session of the Fifty-second Con- eae ar —— Any one who knows the gallant Representa- tive Butterworth. knows he would not say there were too many ladies in the World’s Fair Com- mission. In that respect, at least, Major But- terworth might have been born in Kentucky. = sete It is suggested that if the Sandwich Inlands be annexed to this country King Kalakaua be elected United States Senator, but there is some doubt as to his auccese in view of the fact that he is always short of funds. eee —— ee Senstor Sanders of Montana says in an inter- view in Tuz Stax that we started wrong with the Indians. ‘The western view is that the In- dians shoul! have been planted first and culti- vated afterwards. ———1ro—.

SOMETHING ABOUT PERFUMERY, ON PAGE 19 OF OUR CATALOGUE, Under the head of “PERFUMES,” ‘The following article appears, which we think Will interest many. PERFUMERY EXTRACTS. A FEW POINTS AND HINTS WORTH KNOWING AND REMEMBERING. A very natural and reasonable question on the Part of many people is: “What are Extracts aud how are they madesand wherein do they differ from Cologne Water! To answer this aquest y and clearly as possible is the object of this short article on "*Perfuuery Ex- tracts.” Coiozne Water, when made properly, isa blend of oloriferous essential oils, in pure Spirits or alcohol, technically tered “*Velvet™ Spirits; so oducers include certain gus, spices and perfumesiving plants alone with extracts of flowers, but the risk in attempting ‘Yoo composite «preparation i# in making an <xlor for the few rather than one that will please ‘the many. Extracts are made by gathering the flowers fresh and wien sivine their muaximtm amount of pert; They are steeped in hot fat and allowed to macerate until the fat abstracts the Perfuine of the flower. ‘This fat is aeain heated and run off clear into cans and goes into the trade under the name of **Pomade.” To make Extract this Pomade is minced into very fine Pieces and vizorously churned in a proper ves: al, to Which the porasde odor. Special experience and constant care are required to produce hish, wrade extracts, and not every producer makes equally worthy products, ‘There are ten or twelve “basic” or foundation extracts, out of which, with proper components, such as fine oils of odoriferous plants, choice gums and spices, and the judicious use of “stickers,” such as Aunbergris, Musk, Benzoin, Civet, ete., the vast list of extracts are made, Not all perfumery make equally good perfumes ; and recognizing this we have given our care and experience in this direction to selecting the very Dest odors made by the different manufacturers, and by stocking with such, to sell a line of ex- tracts for the handkerchief matchless in this country.
