To THE PURHIo:- s saa
My attention has been called frequently of
late to the Royal Baking Powder Company's
perversion of the official analyses made by
the Ohio Dairy and Food Commission of thir-
ty brands of baking powder. / had previous
ly seen their garbled, false, and misleading
statements, however, and had published in
the Ohio State journal an article denouncing
their statements and deductions as being
most perversely false, was at that time an
officer of the State, however, and could go no
further than simply to expose the falsity of
their statements, and denounce their abuse
of an impartial official paper Soon there
after, however, resigned the commissioner
ship to accept other responsible work.
I now observe that the Royal Company Is
causing the false and unfair statement to be
published still more widely than ever in the
local newspaper press, as paid ADVERTISE
ment- being so worded as to appear as q
sort of semi official document Against such
a false showing against such impudence add
cupidity in perverting an official paper | pro-
test; and now, as q citizen, free from the re-
stFaints Of official impartiality, | feel free to
give the true Interpretation of tho results OF
those analyses, as it reflects upon the relative
merits Of the several brands Of powder an
alyzed by the Commission.
The Royal Baking Powder Company, IN
comparing the analysis of their powder with
others as to the amount Of gas produced,
drops the Cleveland's out of the list doubt
less because that powder was proven to bt
richer in gas product, or in leayening power
than theirs), and compares their goods witt
the cheaper and inferior grades OF baking
| powder. But in comparing as to the residunn

GEN. SHERIDAN DECLINES.
He Would not Accept Even If Nomi-
mated.

WAsHINGTON, Feb. 19.-The Wash
ington agent of the Associated Press
sought an interview with Gen. Sheri-
dan this morning, for the purpose of
ascertaining whether he would consent
to make an authoritative statement in
regard to his alleged Presidential
candidacy. The General gave his con-
sent. 1t will be seen from the follow
ing verbatim report Of the CONVERSE
ton that his declarations are thorough
ly yeXplicit:
Agent-Of course, General, you have
noticed that there has been consider
able mention of you during the past
four weeks as n possible or probable
candidate for the presidency next aut-
umn?
General Sheridan-Yes, I have no.
ticed it, but have never looked upon
| these newspaper articles as anything
more than the usual shooting around
in the woods which have once of twice
before ia the presidential years brought
my name up in that connection.
| "But, General, the talk is more seri-
GUS this time. There appears to be
something like concerted movement
to bring about your nomination.
General Sheridan-Well I know
nothing more about this alleged
"boom" than what have read in the
papers except that now and then some
friend has twitted me about becoming
a candidate. But if the matter
is really now discussed seriously it i:
time thatal4 parties concerned should
be informed that they are wasting
ftheir breath. / have never had the
presidential bee in my bonnet and /
don't intend to have, for there is moth
ing that would induce me to leave the
profession in which nearly forty years
of my life have been spent, to enter up
! on civil career So all talk about my
being candidate may as well end.
Agent-But suppose the Republican
convention should

the slightest probability Of my being

accept. No not under any cireumstan

A Word

Now and then spoken in sim
cerity never comes amlss. 1t
is the ambition of every mer-
chant or business man to IN
crease the volume of his trade
from year to year, and in order
to do this he must study closely
the wants of his patrons. First,
he must have goods suitable to
all classes of trade. Second, he
must have a large variety OF
each class, and third, he must
give the best possible values
for the money paid him. There
NAV be claimed to be the three
leading attributes Of the sue
cessful merchant. Then the
question for the purchaser to
decide is: Who of all engaged
in trade in my own town and
county make these attributes a
leading afiliation in their busl-
ness?
In the first, Saur & Balsley
aim to carry stock suitable to
all classes of trade, the poor as

one, is treated alike.
In the second, Saur n Basley

ment than any other house IN
the great Northwest.
In the third, Saur Il Balsley

if not better values for money

COAL DEPOSITS.

A correspondent of the Wash
ington Independent, writing OF the
coal measures in Washington and
Columbia counties, says:
Lying about twenty miles from
the Southern Pacifc's lines i'll
Washington county, and about the
same distance from those of the
0. r. & n. in Columbia county,
it is most easily reached through a
pass up the west fork Of Dairy
creek, directly north OF Forest
Grove. This pass does not exceed
400 or 500 feet in elevation above
the Tualatin plains, and is reached
through an easy valley all the way.
There is no such thing rs can
yon on the south slope and good
waterway after the frst mile OIL
north slope to Pebble creek, and
thence up numerous small streams
that cut the lodges OF coal aud ex-
pose them to view in a hundred
places. A railroad can thus be
built and operated very cheaply
from any point on the road in this
county to the mines, running
through rich country all the way
which will furnish Il growing local
business, and the road will be up
on the most feasible route from
the Willamette valley to either AS
toria or Puget sound.
There are three wagon roads
open for travel within amile of the
mines; one from Hillsboro via
Archbold's mill to Pebble creek
one from Forest Grove via Man
ning's mill to the Nehalem, and
down that stream, and one from
| Columbia City to the Nehalem and
up that stream to the mines. None
of these roads are on the bes,
ground, but any of them can be
made fair mountain roads by slight
changes in the route and a moder,
ate outlay in improving them.
The veins vary in thickness from
one foot to ten, all lie nearly hor.
izontal, all crop out on steep hill
sides from so to 200 feet above
the bottom of the gulch, giving
ample room for dumping, sufficient
fall for drainage, and are all in.
cased in sandstone and shales very
easy to work.
| At the present time a force is
engaged in bringing out a guam
tity of the coal by pack and wag-
ons to be tested by use i'll a rail-
road locomotive, and arrange
ments are being made for an ex.
haustive trial of the lodges both
as to quantity and quality.
