The BAKING POWDER WAR.

The Royal Baking Powder Company is still making

orous work in the interests OF the public.
| This Company set out time ago to expose the
character and far possible to break up the sale Of
aduterated baking powders. Having found from
animation of number OF specmins procured from gro
that they generally of inferior character,
and many Of them actually poisonous, it brought the
matter before the public, denounced the makers by
in the press and to the health authorities.
The affair speedily taken up by physicians,
Boards of Health ,, Legislatures troug hou The coun-
try chemists employed to make scientific tests of
the various powders the Market and the Government
itself directed anal Uses to be made before it would pur
chase the supplies needed for army, navy. and Indian
uses.
The result mere than justified the charges so boldly
made by the Royal Company Net only the
jorty Of baking powders in the market found to be
largely aduerated, but many OF them ascertaned
contain lime alum and other poisonous ingredients
such an extent render them positively unsafe
for use in human food The information spread through
out the country and created profound sensation AS
result many Of these inj furious mixtures were driven
cut of the market and the sale OF all of them seriously
nterfered with
No occurrence of recent date has been frrcaching
as this in its beneficial influence upon the public health
and the action Of the Royal Baking Powder Company
in the Inauguration Of such warfare, and in carrying
it forward with such important results, universally
commented upon and appreciated In making the
charges they did not hesitate to enter into competition
with every other baking powder in the country. and it
is public satisfaction that in all the tests and analyses
made the Royal Baking Powder placed at the head
of the list and declared by Boards of Health and by
the Government chemists Drs. Mott and Love, to be
superior to all others in strength and absolutely pure
and free from all inferior substances.
In continuing this warfare against the adu'teracd
food more particularly the alum, lime. and otherwise
impure and inferior baking powders hch unscpulous
endeavorng to force upon the market
in this locality, the Royal will undoubtedly meet with
the old time opposition and abuse. We confident
however, that the public will appreciate, heretofore,
both the object of the stop thief cry and the work of
the Royal Company in its attempts to protect it and to
rid the market of these dangerous articles Of food.

in abolute financial straits. Yes

latter firm managed to tide over
the Sheriff levy in Roebling's suit
for $4,000 by paying $4,000 cash
and giving notes for the balance.

your reporter that all difficulties
were now at an end, all the opera

Hume Yerinsto1 Suing Frank
! Silva, a Mining Locator.
H. NJ. Yerington of this city is
now in San Francisco, pressing a
suit against Frank Silva, a mining
man Of 1Dyo county.
The complainant alleged that
Silva came to him last February
and gave such a fattering and glow
ing description Of an undeveloped
| mine known as the Sterling mine,
located in the New Coso district,
Inyo county, that the Southern De-
velvpment company, represented
by Yerington purchased the mine
for $4,000 from Silva. 1t was soon
discovered that the mine was not
as represented, but had been
''salted,'' and Silva was arrested,
as it was claimed that he knew Of
that fact when he sold the mine, as
he had previously worked it. On
the I'd ult. he was held for trial in
$4,000 bonds, and his attorney z.
5. Miner, then sued out a writ Of
habeas corpus before Superior
Judge Arnott, claiming that his
client was illegally restrained Of
his liberty. It was further claimed
that the crime charged was. not a
public ofense, that the complaint
was not supported by the deposi
tons of the persons alleged to have
been swindled and that the depri-
walton Of personal liberty was
against the Constitution Of the
United States. The petition for
release was denied and an appeal
taken to the Supreme Court. An
other writ was issued, returnable
before Superior Judge Toohy, and
the hearing fixed for last Friday

The state ought to furnish a single ballot for

for state and national offices registered up to

the voter could put mark opposite those names
he wishes to vote for. The present license of fur
nshing ballots is not only wasteful nd an excuse
for the raising OF vast campaign funds, but leads
to such complications and trickeries that the voter
will soon have TO engage the best lawyer In town
to take with lin to the polls to see ii his ballot Is
legal In England and in California the govern

much more sensible II Massachusetts, had adopted
