the highways IS of yore! We have
little faith in the efficacy of any vote
taken on the subject at a town meet
ing,
The mutual interest of majority of
our citizens will doubtless incline
them To let stock run at large until
the laws we already have on OBTAINING
stock are enforced by somebody.
We notice that the farmers inst :
tute discussed a number of live qnps-
tons. The one of most practical in
terest to the farmers of this town
would be something like the follow

Impure Food,

Exceeding caution should be exer-
clsed in the purchase of new article
of food. Many recent cases of serious
illness have been reported from the
use of the new patent foods for in
iants, from INFESTED baking powders,
and cheap favOring extracts. The de-
sire for rapid wealth induces I'M
scrupulOus manufacturers To place
any thing before the public that will
sell at large profit, without regard to
It's usefulness or healthfulness. At
present there is "a great raid upon the
baking powder market, and 50 many
impure ana adulterated articles of this
kind have been found peddled about
the country that the authorities in
several of the States have taken the
necessary action 10 expose them. The
report of the Ohio State Food Commits
sion has shown that large number OF
tie brands sold here are made from
alum, phoSphates, or cheap and
ddulterated cream of tarJer. The
danger to the public is made still
greater by the unblushing effrontery
with which the proprletors of these
impure powders advertise them as per-
feet, claiming for them all kinds of
false and impossible endorsements.
The official report of the OHIO State
Food Commission gives the names OF
number of these impure powders, and
the amount Of impurity and inert mat
ter in each as follows:

as bold and merciless as that of the
robber barOns who stood athwart the
highways of progress in the dark aud
middle ages. Because | have taken
stand against them they are tradueing
and slandering me everywhere, but |
shall continue fighting them as long as
my people desire to retain my services
in this House." Thomas is regarded
as one of our best speakers in Con
gress. and his strong, resonant voice
makes them vince as he turns the
light of truth upon the nef; rious
workings of railroad and other corpor-
ate monopolies.
Congressman Haugen says: Il ell
the people of Wisconsin 70. me that |
am protectiOnist. liz you will COM
pei me to talk for publication | will
say that the work of the hour is to
stand in the van of political strife and
demand protection for American labor
ers from the mendieant laborers and
serfs of Europe. That is the slogan
which should be sounded everywhere.
The free-trade sentiment has been in
circulated in the North
west, and it is time TO counterfeit it by
every possible means. Every speaker,
writer, and editor in the land ought to
place proper doctrine before the peo-
pie, SO that they may not be misled in
the matter"
Congressman La Toilette is loaded
with "a speech ON the tariff and will de
liver it if opportunity occurs. 1t is
pleasant to note that the Democrats
are Sinking the main issue, but the
are aggressive and de-
a hearing. Every Republi
can member is posted, earnest, simply
hoping that his may be the first chance
to fire the shot and shell of political
wisdom into the ranks of the enemy
the party of rebellion and retrogres-
sion.
Colonel Villas may be an innocent
man and an honest man, but the
charges made by that old man IL Min
charges of corrupt TAX
ing of money, and the charges OF
in timber depredations in
Northern Wisconsin-will prevent his
elevation to the Chief Jusiceship, to
which he aspires.

We have been looking anxiOusly for
the bright spring time to come, of
which we have read i'll the books of
ancient lore, but SO far it has failed to
nateIialize. Why is 1t thus!
The cable car line is now working
beautifully and gives rapid transit to
those ON its lines, but it has been
somewhat disastrous to the life of
horses here rs they frequently get the
curks of their shoes caught in the slot
and in th e.r struggles break leg, thus
necessitating their death.
The Railroad strike did not affect
this city as much as it was feared it
would at first, but we are sorry to say
that the strikers did not get much out
of it as they at first hoped. And still
the question remains, Can the work
ingman get the justice for which he is
seeking by striking!" for when the
channels of commerce are closed by
such questionable means the public is
often compelled to rise in its own self
interest and demand that these conten-
lions cease; also the families of the
strikers cry for bread and the man
would be inhuman who would not look
for work for his family and take il too,
even in defiance of orders from higher
sources. This even in opposition to
men who are in nigh positions and
have the means at their command so
that they do not feel the power of
hunger in their families and can or
der others to do what they would not
do If they were in tile other mans
place. As an illustration of this prin-
cIpl,.. we cite the case of the engineers
who Came to Chicago looking for work
not las strikers but as men out of
work and who have starving families
to support" THIS latter class Of men
constituted many of those who, in the
late strike, were unjustly called
"scabs," but who, in truth, were true
men and who had humanity enough To
vlndlcate their independence by strig-
ing To live AS honest men and pay their
deUts, for which they received the an
athemAs, in many Cases, of men Who
would rather run in debt and not work
than TO disobey the powers that be.
Thinking that it might be of inter-
est to your readers, we herewith give
