Gifts of POiSOn.

1t is time that respectable merchants
combined with consumers for the sup
preston of all gift, prize and lottery
schemes in connection with the sale of
articles of merchandise. These schemes
are not only demoralizing to legitimate
business and to the morals of the COM
munity, but in the extent in which they
are being carried in the sale of articles
OF food have become source of great
danger to the public health. They are,
no matter in what form they appear,
nothing more or less than devices to
SWindle honest and unSuSpectiDg peo-
pie.
1t is gratifying to learn that in some
Instances the officers of the law have
taken hold OF the matter. In New York,
and also in Chicago, parties who in this
way offered gifts to purchasers of their
packages have recently been arrested
upon indictments of lottery swindling.
The latest candidates, both for public
eXecration and criminal prosecution. are
the manufacturers of the alum baking
powders, who are, both by means of
gifts and lottery tickets, disposing of
large QUANTITIES. of their cOrrosively
poisonous compounds, which are so we'll
known to be detrimental to HEALTH that
no hOuSekeeper will admit them to her
kitchen knowingly. This form of swindle
is not only being peddled from house to
house, but under the promise of large
profits to be realized, the manufacturers
are entrenching themselves behind the
counters of many grocerS by getting
them to offer the alum goods with the
gifts or lottery tickets attached, thereby
shifting the liability to prosecution, in
part, upon other, and perhaps innocent
parties. Every grocer or dealer, for in
stance, who sells or offers for sale any
of the prize or lottery baking powders is
a criminal in the eye of the law, and
liable, upon conviction, to fine and i'm
priSonment, while those who sell the
gift goods are, morally, as responsible,
for they are Offering an inducement, or
prize, to hOuSekeeperS to use food that
contains corrosive poison. This is a
predicament in which it is not possible
our grocers will care to place themselves
when they come to think seriously of
the matter.
1t must be borne in mind that every
one of these gift or prize baking pow
derS are alum baking powers. These
powders cost less than cents pound
to produce; the gift or prize costs but a
few cents more. They are sold at the
price of a first-class baking powder, so
that the swindle, in commercial sense,
is enormous. But the chief iniquity of
the business consists in selling, as pre-
sumably wholesome, an article of a
positively injurious character, and by
means of gifts or brides inducing serv-
ants or unsuspecting housekeepers to
purchase and use it in our daily food.
There should be some prompt method
of reaching these dangerous practices
and Furnishing the parties engaged i'll
their promotion. If the present laws
are not ample, we commend the matter
to the consideration of our state board of
health for recommendation of such adj
ditional legislation as shall be effective
for the protection of the public.

WINNIPEG, Man., July 10.-The
Northern Pacific officials are here again,
having come in last evening incog.
travelling in an ordinary Pullman. They
were interviewing the government to-
day, and it is understood that some ar
rangement is being made in regard to
the equipment and erection of the Red
River Valley railway and Portage link.
1t is learned that the government do
not propose to enter into any arrange
ment whereby the Manitoba Central or
any company is to secure an unneceS-
sary 'slice." The government have re-
solved to go on and build the road in
the interests of the province. depending
upon the people to sustain them in their
decision to guard against any ''slice
business" or arrangement whereby an
outside company is going to secure an
advantage that properly belongs to
the people. Acting ON this line,
the government will advertise
supplying ties for the Portage link, it
being the intention to commence work
vigorously at once and push it on under
the auspices of the government. AS
the securing of poplar ties in this coun-
try would furnish work to large num-
Der of people, the government will ask
for tenders for poplar ties as well as
other kinds of ties. 1t is also intended
to have advertisements for ties pub
lished in st. Paul papers, in order that
full competition may be afforded and
plenty of ties assured. The govern
ment recognizes that valuable time is
passing, but it is the intention to make
up in vigorous work any time that has
