lug lu olio of those clt'partnu'iitH Is prac
tlcully tin sunns as In tho other. In tho
tankhuiiHo tho glass Is nil melted In Im
mense tanks which will hold thou
sands of tons. In tho pothouso tho
glass Is made In pots.
After tho fires aro lighted nnd n tank
is heated tho glass mixture Is shoveled
In. It Includes glass left over frlfci the
former season, glass refuse, Band nnd
salt cake. Arsenic Is not used lu the
tankhouso for the reason that tho heat
Is so Intense that the drug Is volatilized
and escapes Into tho nlr without enter
ing tho mixture. As ono mixture melts
and (lows to one end of n tank fresh
supplies nro shoveled In nt the other
end.
Tho molten mass seethes nnd
"works" lu a manner similar to that of
a mash In n distillery. From tho salt
cake comes n salt water that has to ho
separated from tho mass, and tho easi
est way to remove It Is to hum it out.
This Is done by throwing stove wood
Into thu tank on tup of thu molten
glass. Tho water Is converted Into
Btcam, which Is destroyed Uy tho In
tense heat from tho glass. Tho melted
glass Is then skimmed by an automatic
skimmer, and It Is ready for tho gath
erer. A gatherer thrusts a long steel blowpipe-
Into ono of tho rings nt the lower
end of tho tank. He twists and turns
it until a sitiull ball of glass gathers on
tho end. This ball Is partially cooled,
polished by being turned In a box of
sawdust and then passed on to the
blower, who heats it again until it be
comes lll.u taffy. The blower swings
tho ball over a pit that is twelve feet
deep and rapidly blows It into n"n elon
gated pear shape. When n blower is
through, tho melted glass becomes a
perfect cylinder about C feet long and
2 feet across. It then passes to u "simp
per," who takes It to a ruck nnd breaks
tho roller looso from tho blowpipe.
Tho snapper gathers n small lump
of molted glass on tho end of a rod
and dexterously runs a narrow ribbon
of the stuff around the ends of tho
roller, both at tho blowpipe end and
tho closed end. Tho llttlo rlbbous of
melted glass cool In a few seconds,'
when they aro removed, leaving a nar
row zone of almost red hot glass
around tho rollers at each end. Then,
taking a tool that resembles a Bolderlng
iron, tho snapper rubs It for a moment
on his forehead, and when tho point of
It is moistened with perspiration he
runs tho Iron around tho rollers nt tho
bested spot. Tho glass crucks nnd
separates as cleanly as If cut with n
diamond, the blowpipe is removed, nnd
the closed cylinder has become a roller
and is then ready to go to the flat
tenor. The flattencr works In another part
of tho building, where nro located tho
flattening ovens. These ovens arc heat
ed to a temperature sulliclent to soften
tho glass so that It may be rolled out
into sheets. A series of ilreclnv tables
placed In n circle llko the spokes of n
wheel rovolvo in tho ovens, nnd on
these tables tho rollers uic flattened.
They nro placed Insldf, allowed to be
come hot, and then a culd Iron Is run
along the Inside from end to end. Tho
contact of the Iron cuts the glass, .
which Is then straightened out upon '
the table.
The Ihittener has a number of billets
of green wood attached to long Iron '
linudlci- nr-1 with these billets, which
aro shaped In such a manner ns to do ,
the work expected of them, ho "Irons" !
thu Miftened sheet of glass until It is '
perfectly flat and smooth. Tho tables
Inside the oven revolve, the flattened
sheet Is carried nway, and another roll
er is brought into position before the '
flattencr. As thu flattened sheets cool
they are lifted to n place on a long'
traveling rack, on which they are by I
stages removed from the ovens, being '
unoweu to cool as they go. This Is done
lu order that tho glass may not bo
shattered by too quick nn exposure to
the nlr.
When the sheets nro taken from the
flattening ovens, they are covered with
a greasy, dirty looking cont of chemicals-soda,
potash, silicates of tho dif
ferent salts, etc. which must bo re
moved, and for this purpose tho rough
sheets are placed in nn ncld bath com
posed of hydrochloric and sulphuric
acids more or less diluted. After their
Immersion In this bath the sheets ore
taken to the cutting room, where work
men cut them Into sizes and mnko
them rendy for the packers. Hardly a
scrap of the glass except tho rough
edges Is wasted. In fact, nono Is wast
ed, as all refuse goes bnck to bo melt

their work the glass Is pueked In boxes
and Is then ready for tho market-Indianapolis

Another Line of Comparisons.
(Issued Under Authority of the Railroads of Nebraska.)
:.
"
H
In our former articles we have made comparisons
allowing the relative assessment of railroad property
with other property in the state of Nebraska. We
will continue to make these comparisons. They will
show that the railroads have paid proportionately
more taxes than any other interest in the state, but to
complete the line of comparisons, it will be necessary
for us to show that the railroads of XchraMc.1 have
paid ns much or more than other roads in the Trans
Mississippi states.
Xo matter how taxes against railroads are col
lected, whether by excise or direct taxation, the gen
eral average shows practically the same. With the
railroads it is immaterial to them what the assessed
valuation of their property should be so long as they
are not required to pay an undue amount per mile to
meet the requirements of taxation, and not in unfair
proportion to other property.
From the Inter-State Commerce Commission re
port for 1900, we find that there were 83,17.) miles of
railroad lying west of the Mississippi river. These
railroads paid 514,301,109 for taxes, which makes an
average of $171.45 per mile. These figures include
every state and territory west of the Mississippi river,
excepting the Indian Territory, where the tax on
railroads, being but $10.86, is so low that we do not
include the sum in our estimates. If we did it would
mnke the foregoing amount per mile a few dollars
less.
In this territory the average net earnings of all
the railroads amounted to $2,784 per mile.
In determining the value of the railroad property
there are several essentials that must be considered.
First: The volume of business that can be given
a railroad.
Second: The difficulties of operation.
' Third: The tariffs allowed to be charged.
Those three features must be taken into conjunc
tion in any estimate that should be made regarding
the value of the railroad property as an Investment.
A comparison of the railroads of Nebraska with
those of New York, Pennsylvania and Maryland
would be misleading unless these elements were
taken into consideration. In these atea the rail
roads wore furnished tonnage that enabled them to
handle l,900,sr8 tons of freight and 202,902 passengers
for each mile of railroad, while in this Trans-Mississippi
country, the railroads were furnished but 37S.300
tons per mile and but 49,814 passengers as reported In
1900.
A comparison of Nebraska railroads with those of
Massachusetts would be senseless, because in Neb
raska there are S3.31 miles of railroad to serve each
10,000 people, while in Massachusetts there are but
7.SS for the same number; or, with Xew Jersey, which
lias 29.99 miles of railroad to each 100 square miles of
territory, while Xebraska has but 7.4. However, In
the comparisons we will select sections of railroad
in Xebraska which have a large business, and we will
pick out some eastern roads that handles approxi
mately the like character and volume of business and
make the comparison with those roads, showing the
taxes that they pay and the tax that is paid here. , It
will be found that iu those instances the roads of
Nebraska pay relatively higher taxes than they
should be called upon to do.
The critics who make a comparison of the tax per
mile charged in the District of Columbia, with that
charged on western railroads, evidently intend to de
ceive, from the fact that the city of Washington has
outgrown the District of Columbia, and the 52 miles
of railroad which are reported in that district are
practically all city property. A comparison of a Xeb
raska railroad with the New York Central, a four
track railroad with 557,000,000 worth of equipment
alone, would tiot be fair, but we will give the people
of Nebraska the details of taxation in these other
states, for tho purpose of letting them make their own
conclusions and judge whether the railroads in Neb
raska are paying their just share of tax, when com
pared with other railroads.
There aro but a few states in tho Union iu which
tho railroads pay 15.4 per cent of tho taxes paid While
in the territory west of the Mississippi tho railroads
in Nebraska pay more per mile than sixtoen of the
other states. Three mining states oblige the rail
roads to pay more thun they do in Nebraska, but it la
u well known fact that tax levies in mining counties
aro much higher than in any other localities la the
United States.
Our statement will show what the railroads pay
to eah county the average rate per mile, and fron
these you will be able to Judge whether the people
are being treated fairly in this matter.
There is no necessity to conceal anythif on the
part of the railroads, as they have borne and War
their just share of the taxes.
In the Year 1900
