We We're opposed to turning Cincin-
natl over to the Democracy, though
the course of Mayor Jacob toward the
colored people can not be defended.
There is an important lesson in the
action of the coIored people of Pnila-
delphia, Chicago and Cincinnati
which politicians everywhere would
do we'll to heed. The Republican
Mayor of Philadelphia, treated the
colored people in much the same
way as the Mayor of Cincinnati did,
and they helped to secure his defeat
In Chicago, it is said Carter Harri-
son the Democratic Mayor, has CIV
en- the colored people the,best recog-
milton they have ever had.
AS a consequence many
colored voters supported him,
and he Was reelected. Mayor Means
now has an opportunity to show that
among his supporters color is no bar
to advancement A dozen colored
men on the police force of Cincinnati,
would be a most formidable election
eering document for Mayor Means
two years hence.
The ''techy," "goody- -goody" sort
of people need have no fears as to
the success of colored officers. In
dianapolis has had a-half dozen col
ored officers for four years. They have
no trouble on account of their color.
and are recognized as among the best
men on the force. Will Mayor Means
bring Cincinnati to the. front? We
shall see.

Mr.. Crump's Charges Again Refuted-Nsi-
ther are Injurious to Health.

NEW YORK April 4.-From advance sheets OF
the Journal of the American Agricultural Associa-
ton:
On the strength of the report issued by George
Cromp Acting British Consul at Philadelphia, in
December last, much excitement has arisen over
pork, the product of the United States. This AS
sociation has made extended investigation Of
the subject in the interest OF American producers
and finds no occasion whatever for the scare. Mr..
Crump speaks OF hog cholera not of trichinosis as
a prevalent disease. That the former exists and
has existed TO extent most injurious TO pro-
ducers it would be folly to deny, but 1t has not
affected the pork product for the reason that an
imals dying from this any other disease are not
and can not be marketed for food. From cholera
the farmer only is the sufferer.
Trichin0sis exists, but TO more limited extent
probably than any disease known TO men. Ii Is
believed never TO njure the hog, and semitic
experts unite In the statement 1t can never enter
the human system except through insuficfently
cooked meat in which IL should happen to exist.
As to the danger from the use ofAmerican pork pro-
ducts either by home or foreign consumers, there
is absolutely none. First from the almost total
absence of trichinosis, second. through the pro-
lection by cooking.
Curers of provisions in the United States
amongst the most honorable, painstaking. skilled
merchants and manufacturers, whose interest Is
in putting up only the best and purest product.
The pains they take and the methods they prac-
tice are guarantee against danger.
Swine or lard butter and anti-Huf cheese are re-
ferred to by Crump. The former is fraud and q
swindle that deserves the severest condemnation.
but 1t can not be dangerous TO health as lard can
only be rendered at a temperature that will kill
animalcula. Oleomargarine is as iniquitous
compound as swine Against the manufacture
and sale of both there should be prohibitory
laws. because of the injury they have done pro-
ducers and consumers of natural butter. They
have been curse to the country and its farmers.
Anti-Huff cheese is article of cheese made from
milk from which all the cream has been taken,
and in place of which q small percentage
of lard is incorporated. II Is sold under Its proper
name. Ii need cause no prejudice against Amer
ican cheese Only two small factories are as yet
in existence. and none In the West. as Mr. Crump
iSs ,hst none nf these sdulerations are charseSbe
to the farmers He is interested In preserving the
character and reputation of his products. The
adulterations are introduced and manufactured
solely by spectators who are regardless of the
country's prosperity when it conflicts with their
interests. Every attention should be given 70
Keeping food products pure and beyond suspicion
On this the future prosperity of the country
hinges. IL we lose our export trade, In the prod
uce trade IL will close trade and vacate farms.

The Senate Republicans have re
solved to continue the fight for the
reorganization of the Senate. The
majority rules in this country and
the Democrats need not expect to in
troduce the Southern principle of
minority rule into the Senate of the
United States. The Republicans
should stand by Riddleberger and
Geneaal Malone, and Virginia will
secede from the solid South at the
next election.

What We lntend to DO.

William r. Balch, the Boston newspaper
man and detective, and for q short time
editor of the Philadelphia Press, recently
heard lady say 81 wish somebody would
invent a hairpin that would stay in ones
hair" And Mr.. Balch, being of an accom-
modating turn, went to work and invented
such a contrivance.
1t is getting so now that man can't be a
successful editor unless he can turn his hand
to almost anything. Some day when we
get time we shall invent a pin that won't
wound young mans hand when he puts
his arm around girls waist to prevent her
from falling out Of buggy or of chair.
