Albert Griffin, chairman of the anti -sa

sued an address to the country in which
he summarizes the national Republican con
vention ON temperance matters, and ap-
peals TO the voters TO support the ticket
nominated by the convention. He gives as
reasons for his advice, that the platform
commits the party against the national
whiskey ring protection tax, that Harrison
is pronounced anti -saloonist, and that "A
ringing temperance plank was added to the
platform. The friendliness of the Repub

Col. Haskins, who was chairman of the
committee ON resolutions at the Republican
State convention, and reported its platform
of principles, comes in for his full share OF
abuse from the railroad newspaper organ,
of the state. As long as he is right, such
papers as the st. Adams Messenger and the
Montpelier Argus can do him no harm. W,
believe we do not betray the confidence Of
Col. Haskns when we say that he never
had a free pass taken from him, but ON the
contrary, he refused several years ago t.
receive any further favors in the shape OF
free passes from the railroads

The prohibitionists are charging that the
Republican platform favors free whiskey
because it recommends the repeal of the
internal taxes in preference to the surren
der of any part of the protective system
To understand how ludicrous this u.s. says
the st. Louis Globe Democrat, one has on.
ly to glance at the platform recently adopt
ed by the prohibition national convention,
in which 'the immediate abolition of the
internal revenue system" is demanded on
the ground that it is grave wrong for the
government thus to derive support from
our greatest national vice.

Evening Post and Harpers Weekly droI

We notice that the Democratic railroad
organ, the Montpelier Argus characterizes
the plank in the Republican State platform
which has reference TO free passes" and
the long and short haul" abuses practised
by the Vermont railroads, and demanding
further legislative supervision, as simply IA
piece Of hypocrisy" which amounts to
nothing, OF course We expected this from
Atkins. But in contrast with this declara
ton we notice the following upon the same
subject The bare fact that it came out of
a Republican convention is healthy sign,
and worth enough so that, but for the nhu
ence ON the presidential contest, it would
command 5000 Democratic votes" If the
Republicans are right in this, as they usu-
ally are in everything, why not give us
those 5000 Democratic votes this year Now
is the time for the better element of the
Democratic party To break away from the
party Of "bossism' and join the party of
the people, which believes in and advocates
the most progressive doctrines.

FOOD TESTS IN NEW YORK.
Official Analysis of Baking Powders-Adu'-
terations In Cream of Tartar.

Official Analysis of Baking Powders-Adu'-
terations In Cream of Tartar.
Under the direction of the New York
State Board of Health, eighty-four differ
eut kinds Of baking powders, embracing
all the brands that conld be found for sale
in the State, were submitted to examina'
ton and analysis by Prot. G. F. Chandler,
a member of the State Board and President
of the New York City Board of Health,
assisted by Prof. Edward G. Love, the
we'll known United States Government
chemist
The official report shows that large
number of the powders examined were
found to contain alum or lime; many OF
them to such an extent as to render them
seriously Objectionable for use in the pre-
paration of human food.
Alum was found in twenty-nine samples.
This drug is employed in baking powders
to cheaper their cost The presence of lime
is attributed to the impure cream OF tar
tar of commerce used in their manufacture.
Such cream of tartar was also analysed and
found to contain lime and other impuri-
ties; in some samples TO the extent Of SO
per cent. OF their entire weight.
All the baking powders Of the market,
with the single exception Of Royal" not
including the alum and phosphate pow
ders, which have not the virtue of even an
impure cream of tartar, are made from the
adulterated cream of tartar of commerce.,
and consequently contain lime to a cor
responding extent.
The only baking powder yet found by
chemical analysis to he entirely free from
lime aud ABSOLUTELY pure is the Royal"
This perfect purity results from the exclu-
sive use of cream Of tartar specially refined
and prepared by patent processes which
totally remove the tartrate Of lime and
other impurities. The cost of this chemi-
cally pure cream of tartar is much greater
than any other, and on account Of this
greater cost is used in no baking powder
but the Royal"
Prof. Love, who made the analysis Of
baking powders for the New York State
Board Of Health, as we'll az for the Govern
ment says of the purity and wholesome
ness of the Royal"
81 find the Royal Baking Powder com.
posed Of pure and wholesome ingredients
1t is cream of tartar powder Of high
degree Of merit, and does not contain
either alum or phospbates or other iniuri-
GUS substance. E G.. LOVE, Phi. D."
1t is highly satisfactory to the bnuse-
keepers of this vicinity, where the Royal
Baking Powder il in general use, that the
Investigations by the analysts in Masss-
chusetts, New York and Ohio, the only
SI.4o, .Lak have time 20 = "a bon art ion m MN
this important subject, agree in CHASING it
as the purest aud most efficient baking
powder in the market.
