Impurities Not Food

OEtECTS OF THE PHOSPHATE BAKING
PowDERs THEIR. LARGE AND UN-
WHOLESOME REsIDUUM.
We have already commented up
on the dangerous proposition ad-
vanced by the phosphate yeast or
baking powder makers to daily
dose the entire community irrespec-
tive of its physical needs or ailments
with lime sulphates and phosphates
impurities that are found in their
powders. 1t seems almost incredible
that any sane person should put for
ward as an argument in behalf of an
article of food intended for daily use
the claim that it contains amongst its
impurities a drug which under GER
tain conditions if properly prescri-
bed by physician might be useful
as medicine. Physicians will at
once see that to endorse any such
theory as this is even more danger
Gus than to recommend to their pa
tients the indiscriminate use of the
various patent medicines advertised
on every han as specific for all the
diseases which flesh is heir to.
In the recent examination of
baking powders made by the Ohio
State Food Commission the phos-
phatic baking or yeast powders were
found to contain large quantities of
lime phosphates, lime sulphates, etc.,
which appeared as impurities. Their
manufacturers have so far found it
impossible to get rid of these impur-
tiles and their probsibly account for
their remarkable claim that such inn
purities are good for us to eat.
The preposterous character of
this claim is evident from the fact
well-known to all physicians that the
body gets with its ordinary food
more lime phosphates than it can
assimilate. The vital organs are tax
ced, even in health, to throw this ex-
cess off.
Pure and wholesome baking pow
ders, as is well-known, are made
from highly refined cream OF tarter.
In phosphoric baking or yeast pow
ders phosphate acid is used as a.
substitute for cream of tartar on ac-
count of its cheapness. The ingredi-
ents and preparation of phos-
phate baking powders are found in
the records of the patent Office at
Washington. This is the formula:
500 POUNDS BURNED AND
GROUND BONES are placed in
400 POUNDS SULPHURIC
ACID (Oil Of VitroD freshly diluted
with
1000 POUNDS WATER, and stir
ed from time to time for three days.
The paste is mixed with farinaceous
material, or with freshly burned
gypsum, or with sterine, and dried
and pulverized = = This pulverized
acid is to be used with bi-carbonate
of soda in baking powders.
Bones ofdefunct animals are gath
cred from, in and about the great
cities, on battle fields, and wherever
else they may be found in quantities.
These bones are reduced to powder
with sulphuric acid, and thes pow
der is the substitute used in the
cheap phosphatio baking and yeast
powders in lieu of the wholesome
and more expensive cream of tarter.
The sulphoric acid, with lime and
PHOSPHORUS of the bones, produce
the sulphate and phosphate of lime
found in the impurities OF the phos-
phatic baking or yeast powders.

Yesterdays ACCIDENT.

lie terrible accident in the bay of San
Francisco yesterday, by which one steamer
ran into and sunk another in broad day
light, but in fog, with consequent great
loss Of life, suggests inquiry as 10 Why
greater precautions are not taken in fogs
upon the bay. Is there suficiency of fog
signals at and below Alcatraz Island to
warn ships incoming and outgoing at the
Golden Gate? If there is not, whose
fault Is it that they have not been pro-
vided. So far as testimony thus far
educed goes, the city of Chester, outgoing,
was feeling her way and constantly sound
ing her steam whistle The Oceanic
sounded her whistle also but it appears
not to have been heard until a moment
before the collision, and too late to avert it.
There ought to be, if there is not, the
most liberal provision for shore sound sig
mails in cases Of dense fog, and it would not
be unreasonable to demand that patrol
boats be provided each side the narrow
passage to warn ingoing and outgoing
ships of each others Approach. At least the
art of navigation with the supplemental
aid OF science should be equal in this day
of advancement and invention to the de
yislng of some means to prevent collisions,
even in the most dense fog in the entrance
Of harbor. In the open sea preventive
agencies may not be so easily availed of,
but in the gates of harbor, it does seem
as If such collisions as that this morning
reported ought to be impossible.

GENERAL HARRISON has been visited
by groups and large delegations of citizens
since his nomination, aggregating more
than seventy thousand. To many of the
larger bodies he has made speeches or
rather talks and it is noticeable that
in no instance has he said any indiscreet
thing. He Is evidently a cool, clear
headed man, and not likely to be carried
away by his emotions or led into gushing
by any enthusiastic surroundings. All he
has said has been straightforward, 50 sim
pie that child can understand, so forcible
as TO command even the respect of political
opponents. No one is left in any doubt as
TO precisely what General Harrison means
when he speaks. What he has said has
added to the strength Of his candidacy and
inspired for him the admiration of par
tisans and has challenged the opposition
Of political foes. He states his belief very
clearly at all times and without any con-
torting of words or involvement Of phrases.
He Is for protecting American industries,
and yet for such tariff notifications as
commercial experience and wise states
manship determine to be necessary, with
ont removing from over American labor
and its products, the protecting arm that
the Government ought TO extend to prevent
ruinous competition between labor under
widely differing conditions of civilization.
He Is for free, fair ballot in every part Of
the land, for honest snd unconeealed coun,
of the votes in the ballot box; he believes
in very great iberality by the Govern
ment to disabled and decrepit solG.ers Of
the Union and due care Of their families /;
he advises that American bottoms lie sub
sidized for the carrying of the mails; he is
opposed to iHdiscriminate and unrestricted
immigration OF unassimilable elements
those likely to become charges upon the
public, and those aided under contracts
that make the conditions very much re-
semble those Of slavery he is emphatic in
demanding very liberal expenditure for
coast defenses and the more rapid building
and equipment Of navy, and he is warmly
in favor of liberal outlay for river and har-
Dor improvements. In short as far as he
has declared himself in speeches, he has
pIaeed himself squareIy upon the Repuh-
liean platform and finds it to be in accord
with his lifelong beliefs. In short, Cen
eral Harrison Is gaining more and more
every day in the esteem and respect of the
people, and the public approving Judgment
Is augmented every time he addresses his
fellow-citizens.
