The 0leomargarine Bill.


The passage Of this bin By Demo-
cratic House and It's approval By a
Democratic Executive makes it a Dem
ocratic measure. An insult offered to
the poor" by inscriptions demagogues,
Is, that being a cheap compound, it
is essentially the poor mans food. =
This humbug Of an argument is answer
ed by one of our exchanges, which says
thai ''oleomargarine is manufactured at
an average of little more than cents
pound, and it IS sold in the South and
everywhere else, not as substitute for
butter, but as butter. The poor people
buy it as cheap butter, not as oleomar-
garine 1t is retailed for u to IS cents,
and often as high as 20, competing with
butter ranging froa p to IS cents. The
law, by forcing it to be sold as imita-
ton, and not as real butter, will force
down the price, so that it will be a great
benefit, and not an injury, to the poor
people of the South who are compelled
to buy it for butter, while the margin
OF profit for the manufacturer viii still
be largely over that which the maker Of
real butter enjoys"
