People have become so accustomed to
finding the discussion of the subject of
edulteration confined to articles of food
and drink that they are apt to consider
that this is the only part of it of any i'm.
portance. Physicians, however, can tell
a different story. For instance, they are
frequently consulted for disorders which
can be directly traced to cheaply dyed
articles of dress, n many Of the most
obstinate cases of skin disease are due to
poisonous c~oloring matters.
Before the art of dyeing had progressed
much most of they dyeing colors in use
tracts. Soon, however, the demand was
greater than the supply, and the chemist
was called upon for substitutes. Step by
step he followed nature pack to her labor.
atory, and finally was able to
that he could produce at will in unlim-
tied quantities a dye stuff which could
not be distinguished by any test, either
chemical or physical, from the natural
product. The substance which he had
made was alizarine, the coloring matter
of madden, and the article from which he
made it was common coal tar. This dis
covery worked a revolution in the indus
trial world. The path, once it had been
pointed out, was easy to follow, and in
quick succession came the announcements
of new colors made from this same waste
product-coal tar-until at the present
day any color or tint can be supplied
from it.
But here, too, the practice of sophisti-
cation soon became a prominent factor,
until the question was, not how well can
dyes be made, but how cheaply. The
process of manufacture is a long one, and
great care is required at every step to
thoroughly remove the powerful chemical
agents by which the necessary changes
are brought about. Here was the oppor-
tunity for ~cheapening the final product.
An incomplete removal of these chemicals
means less labor and less expense; hence
the indifferently finished product can be
sold cheaper. Unfortunately, however,
these impurities thus left in the dye are
in most instances highly irritating to the
skin, and when an article dyed with such
substances is worn it is very liable to
cause trouble, especially if the skin is
chafed or scratched.-Boston Herald.

ROYAL BARRARETY.

Uneasy lies the head that wears a
crown, but how much more uneasy is
the condition of crownless royalty when
subjected to the humiliation that the
dOwager empress of Germany is now
undergoing. When her husband, the
late Emperor FREDERICK, died he left
III the possession of his widow some i'm
portant papers, which he desired to
have carefully preserved. With wifely
fidelity the good woman has placed
them beyond the reach of those whose
interests it might be to have them de-
stroyed. Unfortunately for her and
for Germany, the one most anxious to
get these papers away from the posses
sion of the dowager empress is her own
Wayward son, now the reigning en-
peror. When he failed to find them,
and because his mother refused to dis
close the secret of their hiding place,
the young emperor caused the noble
lady to be made prisoner within her
own palace. Armed soldiers guard the
doors leading to her apartments, and
the poor empress is subjected to the
grosseSt humiliation where she has a
right to expect reverence and display
of filial affection.
This cruel and ungrateful conduct of
the young Emperor WILLIAMis is in keep
ing with his past reputation. But
when he came to the throne it was
hoped that, as in the case of wild
HARRY of England, he would give over
all the indiscretions of his youth and
adjust himself to the dignity which per-
tains to the station of ruler of one of
earth's greatest empires. He has dis
appointed the expectations of the
friends of Germany. and after this
glaring exhibition of unnatural cruelty
and viciousness there is no longer rea-
son to hope that his reign will be wise
one. Most probably it was bad day
for Germany when he ascended the
throne made illustrious by his grand
father, and not disgraced by the late
emperor.

Pushing One Another's Bills
Through Congress.
Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, July 17-Senator Sa-
bin to-day introduced a duplicate of
Judge Wilson's bill to authorize the
Winona q Southwestern Railway COM
pany to build bridge across the Missis-
sippi river at Winona. This was re-
ferred to the committee on COM
merce, of which Frye, of
Maine, is chairman, and will
be favorably reported to the senate
early next week and will pass. 1t was
favorably reported in the house this
afternoon, and Judge Wilson attended
the night session in the hope of secur-
ing it's passage, but was unable to call it
up because the question of lighthouses
occupied the attention of the house to
the detriment of all bridge bills.
Judge Wilson, from the committee
on commerce, favorably reported Mr..
Rice's bill granting to the city of Min
neapOlis all right, title and interest of
the United States in lands adjaC ent to
the falls of st. Anthony aud public
works thereon with amendment as fol-
lows: provided, that the city of Min
neapolis shall agree in such form as
shall be prescribed by the secretary of
war to keep such public works in
proper repair" Judge Wilson says
this bill will pass in the near future,
whenever the committee on commerce
has opportunity to call it up, but it will
not be this week. Mr.. Rice expresses
himself as being gratified with the re-
port, and says the bill will undoubtedly
pass.

A PREMIUM ON TREACHERY
1t Was Offered in One of the Four
Pension Bills Vetoed by the
praSi6ant

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE presi-
dent to-day vetoed fonr private pension
bills. The first granted pension to the
widow of John Herbst, who enlisted in
1862. In August, 1864, he was captured
by the enemy. After his capture he
Joined the Confederate forces, and was
recaptured by the Union army and
then explained that he deserted to the
enemy to escape the hardShips of prison
life, and was released and mustered out
Oct. 10, 1865. The disability for which
his widow now asks for a pension, the
president says, were quite likely the re-
suit of exposure in the Confederate
army, and adds: "The greatest POSI-
BILE sympathy and consideration are
due to those who bravely fought,
and being captured, as bIavely
Eanguishing in rebel prisons. But 1
will take no part in putting name
upon our pension roll which represents
a Union soldier found fighting against
the cause he SWOfe he would uphold:
nor should it be for moment admitted
that such desertion and treachery are
excused when it avoids the rigorS of
honorable capture and confinement. 1t
would have been sad condition of
affairs if every captured Union sol
der had deemed himself justified
in fighting against his government
rather to undergo the privations of cap
ture." Two of the other bills vetoed
granted pensions to Woodford M. Hop
kins and Thomas Shannon. In these
cases the president finds that the death
of the beneficiary had no connection
with their military service. In the
fourth case, the bill granting an in
crease of pension to John f. Ballier,
limits any increase to the rate fixed by
law for total disability, which rate the
DeDSiOuer now receives.

information of Moore can be obtained

he will bring amended and strictly

proposing to repeal the internal revenue
tax on cigars. cheroots and cigar
cites, and to repeal all in
ternal revenue taxes were quickly
proposed and rejected. An amendment
proposed by Mr.. SOwden, of Pennsyl-

led to long discussion, but was rejected

CIRCULATE DOCUMENTS.

The GLOBES statement that this is to
be thoughtful campaign is supple
mented by the NewYOrk Herald with the
assertion that it is to be campaign OF
brains. The indications are already ap-
parent that the superficial enthusiasm
which usually manifests itself in presi-
Dental years is not to be feature Of
this campaign. People are not quitting
their business, as they are wont to do
ON political occasions. and rushing
around the streets bowling themselves
hoarSe and making fools of themselves
generally. Business is moving on in
the even tenor of its way, and business
men are giving close attention to their
business affairs. Even the professional
politicians are discouraged by the utter
indiSposition of the masses to turn their
attention to politics.
But, for all that, there is probably
more thinking being done by the peo-
pie, and more conscientious inveStlga-
tiOn of facts and truths, than has ever
been known in a political campaign in
this country. The campaign is being
y
and not on the streets, or at the cross
roads, or in the public halls. 1t is in the
quiet precincts of the home sanctuary
that the business man, the merchant,
the farmer, the mechanic, the profess
sional man, when his days work is over,
sits down to read and to reflect upon the
great issue involved in this campaign.
If ic Crraat iccua hanonca flora ic not q
home nor family in the land but is in
terested in the way it is to be de-
termined.
1t IS because that this is thoughtful
campaign, a sober, serious one, a cam
paign of brains, that the managers Of
both parties are interested in getting a
good supply of campaign literature into
circulation. The people want to read
up on the tariff question, and cOnse-
quently it becomes the business of the
campaign managers to supply them
with reading matter. 1t is quite plain
that the Republican managers realize
the Importance of this procedure, for
already they are flooding the country
with high tariff literature. We fear
that the Democratic managers have
failed as yet to realize the Importance
of it, because we see no evidence of any
systematic movement to put tariff re-
form literature into circulation.
Earnest, active work will sometimes
crown bad cause with success, espe-
cially if the good cause is left to drift
along without direction or attention.
Truth has nothing to fear if left free to
combat with error, yet it must be kept
in good fighting trim. NAPOLEON used
to say that Providence was always on
the side of the heaviest guns. If this is
to be a campaign of braius, then the
brains must have nouriShment. If it is
to be thoughtful campaign, there must
be food for thought. The voters cannot
be supplied with too much sound tariff
reform literature.

THOSE DEPOT SHEDS.

1t is little late in the season reviving
the agitation, but upon the principle
that it is never too late to do good, the
chamber of commerce is again stirring
up the Union Depot company with re-
gard to putting up decent sheds in con-
nection with that establishment. Pub
lie patience is pretty well worn out by
the Indifference manifested by the
Union Depot company, and its utter
lack of attention to respectful demand
which the public have right to make.
The terms of the contract by which the
depot company acquired valuable prop
erty from the city make it obligatory
upon the company to erect train house,
But if no such obligation existed,
the depot company ought to have re-
gard enough for the public interest and
the city'S welfare to erect the sheds
without being asked to do it. Now
that it is demonstrated that polite ap-
peals have no influence in persuading
the Union Depot company to perform
duty which is required by both legal
and moral considerations, the chamber
of commerce wisely recommends that
the aid of the courts, and of the railroad
commission as well, be invoked to secure
for the people of this city the accommo-
dations they are entitled to- 1t is to be
hoped that the chamber of commerce
will not do, in this instance, what has
been done so often before-go to sleep
on its own resolutions; but that vigor-
Gus steps will at once be taken to put
the resolutions into effect. Like the old
man and the boy in the fable, if soft
words and the throwing of tufts of grass
do not induce the urchin to come down
out of the apple tree, then it is time to
try the virtue in throwing stones.

Mr.. Wilson, of Minnesota. criticised the
Republican national platform for
favoring the removal of the

ken, of Maine, said the party, in its

Mr.. Perkins, of Kansas, denied that the
Republican party favored free whisky,

were produced north of Mason and
