The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1879-03-15

On the I'd inst, Mr.. Potter, chairman of
the investigating committee, submitted his
report to the committee, which they
adopted, by a vote OF six Democrats to
three Republicans, Butler being absent.
The report is divided int three parts, the
first referring to Florida, the second to
Louisiana and the third to the forged cleo.
toral certificates. The following are the
conclusions reached: That the Tilden
electors were fairly chosen in Florida, and
that the canvassing board acted unlawfully
in counting Tilden out; that in Louisiana
the returning board assumed power that
never before existed and that they used the
power 10 fraudulently count the state for
the Republicans; that fraudulent registry
based on false census made it appear that
the Republican voters exceeded the white
voters in the state more than 2S,C00 and
that supervisors of election parishes were
directed to return votes according to this
census; notwithstanding this organized
fraud, says the report, when the election
was over, the Democrats had a majority
and the Republicans in order to over
come it usurped power not given them.
The report tells how the vice president
having refused the first Louisiana electoral
certificates, the Republicans secretly man.
ufactured another, ante-dating it, and con-
cealed it until its production before con,
gress, and how the electoral commission
was served with printed copies of the
forged document. The report concludes
that full effect was given to the electoral
vote of Florida and Louisiana, and that
Noyes, Sherman, and others encouraged
this result that the second certificate from
Louisiana was forged as to two Of the names.
Kellogg and Clark, being privy to it, and
that Tilden and Hendricks having received
true majority of the electoral votes were
the real choice of the people at the last
presidential election.
Messrs Hiscock, Cox and Reed, the Mi
nority of the Potter committee, presented
their report on the Sd inst. They dissent
from the views presented in the majority
report both as to the pretence of the same TO
an investigation and to the conclusions ex-
pressed upon the testimony taken.

a Theory in Regard to Food

The Pail 1fGU Gazette says: " A Ger
man physician has started a new theory
with regard to food. He maintains that
both the vegetarians and meat-eaters are
on the wrong tack. Vegetables are not
more wholesome than meat, or meat than
vegetables, and nothing Is gained by con-
Stunning a compound OF both. Whatever
nutritive qualities they may possess, he
says, are destroyed in great measures
and often entirely by the process Of cook
ing. All food should be eaten raw.
If this practice were adopted, there
would be little or no illness among human
beings, They would live their appor-
toned time and simply fade away, like
animals in wild state, from old age.
Let those afflicted with govt, rhematism
and indigestio n try for time the effect
Of simple uncoOked diet, such as oys-
ters and fruit for instance, and they will
lind all medicines unnecessary, and such
a rapid improvement of their health that
they will forswear all cooked articles of
food at once and forever. Intemperance
would also, it is urged, no longer be the
curse of civilized communities. The
yearning for drink is caused by the I'M
natural abstraction from what are term
ed solids Of the aqueous elements they
contain-uncooked beef, for example,
containing from seventy to eighty per
cent. and some vegetables even larger
proportion of water. There would be
less thirst, and consequently less desire
to drink, if our food were consumed in
its natural state, without first being sub
jected to the action Of fire. Clothing,
our adviser also thinks, is mistake, but
he admits that the world is not yet far
enough advanced in civilization to go
about undressed. Whatever differences
Of opinion may exist as to this anti-cook-
ing theory, there cannot BE a doubt that
IL getting rid of the X chen with all its
abuses, including the cook, housekeepers
would be spared vast amount of worry,
and probably on this account alone
would live to a greater age than at
present"

Modern Coffee.

Cottee-drinkers will read with interest
some observations made by the principal
OF the inland revenue laboratory, in his
annual report just printed, relative to an
ingenious method of aduIterating that
article which has lately been discovered,
Owing to the ease with which roasted
vegetable matter can be prepared so as
10 look ike coffee, substitutes for, or
authorizations of it, are frequent. The
substance most recently detected as an
adulterant IS date stones, which, after
being roasted and ground, form such am
imitation OF coffee as would, when mixed
with the genuine article, readily deceive
the consumer. The early detection and
suppression of this mode of adulteration
were effected by the inland revenue
authorities at Somerset House, in conse-
quence of information sent by super
visor at Liverpool that many tons of
date-stOnes, a refuse from the manufac-
ture OF spirits at one of the distilIeries
there, and which had up to that time
been considered useless, were being
bought by a foreign gentleman to be sent
to Manchester, and believed to be in
tended as an adulterant Of coffee. The
inquiry made led to the discovery that a
mandatory had been started in Man
chester for the preparation of MeElo-
tine coffee," a compound in about equal
proportions Of coffee, chicory and date
stones. A seizure has since been made
there Of about seven tons of Melilotine
coffee" and Of the prepared date-stones.
The mandatory had barely got into
working order, and the Melilotine
coffee had been sent into consumption.

FrauduIaut Railway Scheme.

What appears to be another gigantic
fraud has Just come to light. The Mystic
Valley railroad company was organized
some time since to build narrow gauge
road from Boston, to connect to towns lying
along Mystic Valley to the north of the city.
But II miles of road have beer built thus
far, and this was charged at $4,000 per
mile, on the books of the corporation. 1t
was known that the expenditures for every
purpose had not extended 100000. This led
to an examination by railroad commission
ers, and as result, they have called upon the
attorney general to take action in the mat.
ter. An examination of the books Of the
company shows a dis repancy of $4,000,
and it is further believed that many of the
subscriptions were fraudulent, for the pur-
pose of victimizing innocent subscribers.

Sadly Duped.

The wife of miner iii Hopewell, Pa,
had yellow hair Of wonderful length
and abundance. 1t was so heavy as to
be bother, but her husband would not
let her cut it off, even when offered q
good price by the dealers in hair. Lately
work became scarce with him, and he
did not know how to make a payment
soon coming due on his little house.
The loss of his home seemed probable.
Then a stranger came along and offered
$500 for the treasured yellow hair. That
amount of money would raise the mort
gage on the homestead, and the husband
reluctantly made the sale. He could
not help shedding tears when he saw the
strangers shears despoiling his wife's
head of its beauty, and she wept when
she looked at herself in the glass; but
they consoled themselves with the crisp
bank notes, and the buyer went away
with the hair. A few days afterward
the miner went to pay the debt, and
learned that the bills were al counter
felt.

ture, and shot the old man dead. The wife
and children huddled around the remains
until morning.
w. II. Cox was killed by a negro at Nash
vile, Tenn, on the 4th. 1t seems that the
colored man, named Steve Shields, had Cox
indicted for raping his wife, whereupen
Cox went to Shields house to kill him. A
ballroom Cox's pistol wounded another ne
gro named Davis in the thigh, whereupon
Shields shot Cox dead.
c. c. Curtis, clerk in boot and shoe es-
Enlistment at Richmond, Va, was shot
fatally on the Sd inst. by George Poindexter.
1t is alleged that on the 1st, Curtis used i'm
proper language to lady customer, the
finance of Poindexter. The latter cowhided
Curtis, and subsequently Curtis went to
Poindexter's place of business, with the re-
suit stated.
