The last Legislature illuminated
a law against oleomargerine, requir,
ing vendors Of the article to label Il
and take oaht @iicsnse faf IS sale
Now it will be no SxcaDe benS
that they thehselyes were Eheatet
when the purchaser Complains. It
is their business to kncS, II they
make it their business to sell. This
law is in the interest of those who
manufacture the genuine article aud
will raise its price. The moment a
merchaatsRats On the.- head Of his
key "ox butter" or soleomargarine,'
the charm Of his ware is gone. It
will be funny to see how it will be
pulled as better than the genuine,
and how good ladies who bring in
their little buckets with cow.butter
will turn up their noses at the
''oleo." There is one difficulty,
however, that the Legislature has
not met, and that is the want of a
sufficient education on the part Of
some of the purchasers to spell out
that long word-o'eomorgariae.. A
man Of African descent comes into
the store and asks for butter. The
polite clerk behind the counter who
uses the article on his hair points to
the tub Of OK butter. The free
American sees the name, but he can
not spell 1t, and buys. Now the
question is, what is the grand jury
to do with the case? Here is a co
nundrum that public interest and
convenience requires should be in
stantly solved.

War Talk.

There is some talk OF a war be.
tween Russia and Germany. There
is decided war feeling in Russia
and there is also opposition to it.
Advises from ST. Petersburg state
that the Liberals are opposed to any
aggressive policy, believing that
Russia cannot afford to fool with the
Austro- German League that has an
enormous force of 100000 men at
command. while the Northern En-
pire. dan bring I'd the field only hall
as Observation-Disclosures
united.s H.. Va sos
The Slavophiles aver that in q
conflict between Slav civilization
and German civilization, the for
mer would certainly come off victo-
rious, because the Slavs outnumber
the Germans two to one. They
think that war would result in the
Reorganization of Austria, the fall
of the political influence of Germa-
nv, and the formation Of a number
of Slav States under the Cars pro-
lection. TheSlav statesmen count
confidcntially upon the active CO.
operation of France against her ole
enemy. ..-.
