"PoIiticaI Legislation.
To the Editor of the Globe.

TO the Editor of the Globe.
political Legislation is the heading
of an editorial in this mornings Pioneer
Press, in which congress is severely
criticised for wasting it's time and fur
ther accused of ''that bit of partisan
work." the passage of the ''Mills BILL"
at the expense of the great interests of
the country. This editorial was eX-
pected and now completes the long list
OF inconsistencies due the public from
great paper governed by blind partisan
zeal. Does the Pioneer Press now claim
that our enormous and growing surplus
OF S12o, 100000 should not be checked!
I eS, OF course it does. 1t was but few
months since that the Press, in common
with other leading papers, was demand
ing legislation upon the subject of re-
ducing the tariff; but now, after having
eaten its vomit, and in order to be in
harmony with the Chicago platform and
governed by it, and contrary to
and in conflict with the greatest
men of the Republican party of
its own vicinage, make and charges
that any attempt to establish American
farmers and give to the people of Min
neSota an equal chance with the people
(aristocracy) of the manufacturing and
coal and iron producing states is a
waste of time.
1t will not be disputed that the farm
ers of Minnesota aud of all the states
are compelled to sell their produce upon
the demand and supply basis and mar
ketS of the world and to take the con-
sideration money received for it and
buy goods which are enhanced in value
on account of the protective tariff. Is
this not true?
Yet when congress, by the Mills bill,
seeks to reduce the average protection
from AZ per cent to about ~ per cent, in
the interest of revenue, seventeen
tWenty-tifthS of our whole people, it is
openly accused of partisan work.
Under the brave and statesmanlike
message of Grover Cleveland this issue
has been presented categorically to
thinking people and it will be consid-
cred by free people. The same edi.
torlal now presents to congress, as one
OF Its most important duties, q sGoy-
ernmental Supervision of the Tele-
graphic Communication" Here we
submit whether or not reduction of
the home expenses of the whole people,
including clothing, is not of greater mo-
ment than the suppression of the tele-
graphic companies. Give the Demo-
cratic party an opportunity and you can
have governmental supervision of each
and every monopoly in our land in
which the same may be warranted by
the constitution.
Again it comes harping on immigra-
ton and the influx of paupers from the
old world. Here let us ask the same
sheet if it was not the Republican party
in power which granted away hundreds
OF millions of acres of our public do
main to its own congressman for rail-
road subsidies, who then established
land offices throughout the Union, and
subsequently established immigration
bureaus" and invited all pauper ma
tons to come and enter this same land
by contracts? Did not this same Re-
publican party do all this, and did not
the great interested railroads carry the
paupers from New York to Chicago for
one dollar? Where is our domain? F.

There was some fault found with the
decisions of the umpire, the same as
yesterday, and local paper jumps on
his back in warlike manner tonight,
charging that the game was lost to the
home team by his unfair decisions. The
feature of the game was a triple play.
Fuller got first on base hit. advanced
to second on safe hit by Lowe, and
Forster then popped up an easy fly. just
in front of second base which Force
dropped to the ground. Old Davy then
picked up the sphere and touched Fuller
at second, touched the bag on loves
force at first, and thereby made double
play. Forster became excited over the
way Force handled his hit, and left first
to chin with the umpire inside the dia-
mond. AS soon as he had reached the
center of the diamond Force tossed the
ball to Fudger and the umpire declared
Forster out. There was also splendid
catch of line hit by Whitley in left.
The running of bases by Milwaukee
was exceptionally clever, and the game
was really won by good work in that
regard. A base hit by Strauss and base
on balls; a three-bagger by Lowe and
fine base running yielded three runs in
the third for Milwaukee. The-leciding
run was made by Maskrey lining one
for three bags to left, and Strauss hit
to extreme left Score.

Opinion Growing that No Substi-
Reported.
WASHINGTON, July 24.-There was a
full meeting of the senate finance com
mittee this morning and an hour was
devoted to the informal discussion of a
line of action in regard to the tariff.
Nothing was determined, but at the time
of adjournment there was an under
standing that the Republican majority
OF the committee would get together
and see if an agreement could be reached
III respect to a measure to be submitted
as a substitute for the Mills bill. If
successful in this, the measure is likely
TO be laid before Republican caucus,
and when shaped to meet any conflict
ing views which may be developed
there, it will be laid before the DEM
ocrats of the finance committee ana by
them before Democratic caucus for the
consideration of line of policy ON their
part. With so
MANY ELEMENTS OF UNCERTAINTY.
no one feels like venturing guess as
to the kind of measure, if any, which
may be submitted or the length of the
session. But it is expected that the
present week will determine pretty
clearly the course of future events. The
Republican members of the committee
remained in conference nearly an hour
after their Democratic colleagues with
drew, and during the afternoon there
were frequent private conferences with
other Republican senators and with Re-
publican members of the house. AS a
result the opinion is gaining Roadway
that there will be no reOOrt of a tariff
bill at this session, but that the SUBJ
committee will continue its inquiry dur
ing the recess. Should the Republicans
adopt this course final adjournment of
the session may be expected within
three weeks.

THE BLUE RIBBON MEETING.
Some Sensational Performances
by Trotters at Detroit.


Special to the Globe =.
DETROIT, Mich, July 24.-The great
initial trotting and pacing meeting of
the year is that which began at the De-
troit Driving club course to-day-appoo-
priately called the Blue Ribbon meet
ing. There are several causes which
combine to give the Detroit meeting
pre-eminence. First among these is the
large purses offered, and with them the
assurance of fair and Just treatment to
owners, drivers and all interested and
of a management which is in every way
liberal. Next there is the perfection to
which the track has been brought. Be-
fore the present club took hold, the De-
troit track was, for most horses, from
two to four seconds slow. Such work
has been done upon it, however, that it
is now one of the finest in the country,
and with the latest improvement which
safely be said that there is no faster.
The date Of the meeting, in conjunc-
ton with the large purses, is another
of the causes OF the great success. De-
troit is the first point where the great
horses of all sections of the country
horses great in promise as well as in
performance-meet to do battle. The
champions which have won turf battles
in the Michigan circuit, and prior to
that in Wisconsin and Minnesota, are
joined here by those who have shown
their speed on Eastern tracks, among
the latest arrivals at the track being con
tingentS from East Saginaw on the one
hand and Pittsburg on the other. Be
sides these number of horses which
have been held in reserve, with view
of landing big stake when the public
is least expecting it, will make their
debut in Detroit. They can be cnt
loose here without rendering themselves
ineligible in Cleveland. just as Cleve-
land records constitute no bar at Buff
falo or Rochester. In this respect,
though wholly disconnected from the
grand circuit, the Detroit meeting prac-
tically constitutes part of the great
horse tour of the country. Following is
a summary of the events decided to-day:
First race, 3:00-minUte class, trottng,

INDIANAPOLIS, July 24.-The Hoo

had decidedly the best of the pitching
contest, and while he pitched great
game, he also fielded his position adj

that they were not productive. On the
other hand KrOck was hit quite freely
at times, and badly supported by Flint,

runs. In the first for the home team. a

A QUESTION OF HEALTH.
What Baking Powder Shall We
Use?

This plain question comes home to
every housekeeper. We all desire pure
and wholesome food, and this cannot be
had with the use of impure or poisonous
baking powder. There can be no longer
a question that all the cheaper, lower
grades of baking powders contain either
alum, lime or phosphate acid. AS 10th
as we may be to admit so much against
what may have been some of our house
hold gods, there can be no gainsaying the
unanimous testimony of the official
chemists. Indeed, analysts seem to find
no baking powder entirely free from
some one of these Objectionable ingre-
dents except the Royal. and that they
report as chemically pure. We find
some of the baking powders advertised
as pure to contain, under the tests of
PrOfS. Chandler, Habirshaw and others,
nearly IL per cent of lime. while others
are made from alum, with no cream of
tartar. This, we presume, accounts for
their lack of leavening power, as some
for the bitter taste found in the biscuits
so frequently complained of by our
selves.
But aside from the inferiority of the
work done by these powders, the physi-
clans assure US that lime and alum
taken into the system in such quantities
as this are injurious. Their phySiolog-
zeal effects are indigestion, dyspepsia,
or worse evils.
The question naturally arises, why do
these cheap baking powder makers use
these things? Alum is cents pound,
lime still cheaper, while cream of tar
tar costs 35 or 40. The reasons for the
chemical purity of the Royal Baking
tlxy rrix in ha No,
York Times in an interesting deScrip-
ton of a new method for refining ar
golS, or crude cream of tartar. 1t
seems that it is only under this process
that cream of tartar can be freed from
the lime natural to it and rendered
chemically pure; that the patents and
plant for this cost the Royal Baking
Powder company about 100000, and
that they maintain exclusive control of
the rights.
Professor McMurtrie. late chief chem
ist of the Department of Agriculture. at
Washington, ID. c., made an eXamina-
ton of this process, and reported upon
the results attained in the refined cream
of tartar. The following extract from
his report would seem to answer the
question repeated at the head of this
article, and which is so frequently pro-
pounded by the hOuSekeeper:
Il have examined the cream of tartar
used by the Royal Baking Powder Com
pany in the manufacture of their bak-
ing powder, and find it to be perfectly
pure and free from lime in any form.
The chemical tests to which | have sub
mitted the Royal Baking Powder prove
it perfectly healthful and free from
every deleterious substance. The Royal
Baking Powder is purest in quality and
highest in strength of any baking pow
der of which have knowledge"
