The milk question, with reference 10
purity or adnIteration. is . subject Of
interest TO the majority of our citizens.
Strange "a 1t may appear, many dealers
have what is called forty and sixty cent
milk--diferent brands-yet produced, as
may be reasonably supposed, by the
same COW. For. forty cents you en-
ploy the milkmah to waterlhe fluid, but
for sixty cents you reserve that aque-
Gus privilege. You can procure corn
fed milk, grass milk, or cotton-seed milk
at pleasure, just as you can the same
brands OF butter. The hotel and restau-
rant milk is generally iced, after having
been literally and humsuely watered.
A convention of consumers may
become absolutely necessary 70 bring
about milk reform, and the at
tention Of the Grand Jury might
be invoked on the subject with pro-
priety. But then this will bring about a
convention Of producers Of the
cows, the convenieut wells and adjacent
bayous, but of the sellers-because, if
the cows met in convention they would
pass strong and pregnant resolutions to
prevent future damage to their reputa-
ton, occasoned by the vile practice Of
middle men and retailers.

for Mr.. H. NJ. Boewenstine, who is a
candidate for Tax Collector of this
county: u.-assar- aas4aa
Henry NJ Loewenstine, one of the
most liberal an onterprising merchants
of Memphis, announces himself as an
independent candidate for Tax Collector
Of Shelby county. We like to see this
Politics in local offices is detrimental to
the public good; and when such men as
II. NJ. LoeTenstine offer themselves. the
people should seize the opportunity and
elect them. He is a man above reproach,
one Of the bone and sinews Of Shelby
county, and has spent as much money
and time for the success Of the Demo-
cratic party as any man in it, He was
one of the first to indorse Horace Gree
ley, and we hope he will be elected.
Petty conventions are becoming hum
bugs, controlled by men who have more
time for idleness and Incidence than
working for an honest living, and the
sooner the people show their contempt
for them, the better for the public vel
fare
