But the fact of its being fraud lies not in
the substance itself, but in its being sold as
pure butter and not under the true name.
The most common forms of this bogus SUB
stance are oleomargarine and butterine, oleo-
margarine being the product of tallow ana
butterine of lard and sometimes suerlne.
The elements OF butterine are lard, acids ana

to deceive the ignorant customers. Mr. Rlce
asked certain manufacturer In regard to
the proportions OF his business, but he an
swered he could not inform him in regard to
that but would tell this one thing. That he
had a standing order of three barrels of but
ter color a week, one barrel of which will
color 10000 pounds of this stuff making
2lU000 pounds week for one factory, and
there are ut this time seventeen factories in
Chicago. 1t was claimed at d recent conven-
ton i'll Chicago that the cost of one pound of
this adulteration would not at the furthest eS-
coed 1l54 cents, while it is sold at prices
ranging from Is to "a cents. An idea of the

by the fact that the capital invested exceeds

The effects of this business has been such as
TO depress the value of lands, COWS and other
property OF dairymen in this country 49,
per cent. in two years. Every cow and every
acre OF land has TO pay tax to this gigantic
fraud, which would destroy if possible the
dairy interests of this nation. In a little
more than year the value of cows in this
state has deprecated over 80 per cent. and
the value of cream about 800 per cent, all on
account of this fraud. This adulteration has
also been proven injurious to health. Oils in

tallow beginning to decompose as soon as
they are mixed with the butter.
NOW, THE LAW.
Our law is based on three assumptions;
first that this is a fraudulent product; Sec
ond, that it is unhealthy as a food: third that
a prior industry, honest and honorable, should
be protected from this fraud. The trade in
butterine has now grown from fraud to an
audaciouS result. The amount of bogus but
ter made il Chicago is greater than all the
pure made in Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin and
Minnesota. By our new law the price OF
butter has advanced cents here since Octo-
Der l. The chief defect in the law is the fact
OF the indifference of the people on this point.
Let US all unite to deStroy such an injurious,
ruinous and fraudulent trade This ended

was music, addresses by Gen. La Due, OF

committee of Dakota, and selected by that
body to visit Washington and represent

He strongly denounced it as revolutionary.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16,-The Dakota
colony here is greatly excited over the
senatorial election in that territory. The
Boynton- No Carty-Smith committee say
they will fight any division and thus admit
two Republican states. This is why they
oppose Day and Ziebach, whom they ac-
cuse of promoting the division scheme. Da-
kota Democrats have several pamphlets of
eX-Chef Justice Shannon, showing that the
formation OF a state without an enabling
act can't be supported by the precedent of
Michigan. When she came into the Union,
Senator Buffers resolution to inquire by
what authority the senators were elected
and also to investigate any other special
matters connected with the unwarranted
proceedings in Dakota will probably elicit
much discussion OF legal propositions.
PRESS COMMENTS.
The Washington Post has a savage edi-
torial ON the brazen audacity of Southern
Dakota in electing senators.
The New York Sun says: Southern Dakota
knocks at the door of the Union for admis-
sion. When she comes in give her another
some wholly new appellation. The New York
Times observes: The people of the southern
part of the territory of Dakota have set up
the government of the state of Dakota with
out waiting upon the pleasure of congress,
but before proceeding to exercise it's func-
| tons that government proposes to wait until
the state OF Dakota has been regularly ad-
| mitted into the Union. The commission
| which met at Sioux Falls and framed con-
stitution last September, provided that at
| the same election at which this was submitted
| to vote of the people, state officers men,
bers of the legislature and members OF con-
gress should be chosen, and the Site of cap
| ital decided upon, and that the legislature
should organize and elect United States sena-
tors, all as preliminary to admission. This
proceeding is exceptional, but there is moth
ing unconstitutional or extra legal about it.
The admission OF the new state with its ready
made government, however, still depends on
the will OF congress.

New RICHMOND. Wis, Dec. 16.-An in
creased attendance and interest marked the
second day of the poultry exhibition. All
the visitors as well as the exhibitors are
unanimous in the expression that here is to
be seen the finest collection of fancy fowls
ever under one roof in the Northwest The
source of great attraction to the sporting
men of this locality is the exhibit of game
fowls, of which over one hundred are
owned and exhibited by A. C. Myers and
Il. G. Allen. AS an object of interest
comes genuine American eagle captured
by Edward Magner at Richardson, Wis,
about three weeks ago. From tip to tip of
the wings he measures plump eight feet
and is pronounced the largest ever caught in
the United States.
Among the exhibitors is Lester Pavlin
of St Paul, Mimi, with six buff cochins
and ten partridge cochins.
Among the new arrivals and enthusiastic
bird-fanciers we notice W. W. Fleming of
Mansfield. o.; E. r. Anderson, Stevens
Point, Wis; W. II. Stewart, LIE Sueur,
Mimi, and J. w. Hyslop, Hudson, Wis.
Those interested in fancy fowls will lose
much by not visiting the exhibition. The
next two days will be the most interesting
and great pains will be taken to impart
much useful instruction as to how to raise
and breed improved stock.

THE FACTS.

The City Sections mortuary report
for the month Just closed is published
IN another column, from which it viii
be seen that there were ten deaths from
diphtheria. The showing is not at all
pleasant, but it Is astonishing in view Of
what the papers and people have been
saying during the month. One would
have been pardoned for believing thai
diphtheria was epidemic in the city all
through August, and if he had placed
any confidence in what appeared IN
some of the papers, he would necessar
ily have felt that Salt Lake was the
most unhealthy city on earth as regards
the diseases of the class to which diph-
liberia belongs, and yet there have been
only ten deaths from this dread COM
plant. Cholera infantum, which is in
no way allied to any of the
filth diseases, followed very closely to
d.phtheria, with nine deaths. These
people who are eternally yelling out
Chat Salt Lake is an unclean and conse-
quently an unhealthy city, seem to for
get that the facts keep coming to the
front and conv,cting them of malicious
SANDER.
August IS the sickly month OF the
year, and its mortality roll is not large
enough to be alarming, or 10 suggest
The presence Of any other than ordi-
nary diseases in the city. The total is
made up of deaths from such complaints
and diseases as are found in the best
regulated and cleanest and most health

men who framed and passed the law
did not look for the courts to sustain it /;
it was put oat for political pur-
poses, and intended to annoy only
for a brief period; some of those
who voted Cor the bill said as much as
the above concerning the measure, and
we have been informed that they went
SO far in their efforts to get votes as to
promise that the courts should nullify
the act. 1t viii surprise them quite as
much as it does others to learn that a
Judge has actually sustained the out

Judge Hayes, and the pressure that has
been brought to bear on him in this
matter, we will say nothing at this time,
only expressing regret that His Honor
has done that at the outset which will
destroy his influence on the bench, for
al classes will accept this opinion as
indicating either ignorance or prejudice.
