OF ADULTERATIoN.

Scarcely any other substance enters
more Importantly into the economy Of
building than white lead. 1t is essential
that pure white lead should be the base of
paint that is intended to preserve and to
endure. White lead therefore becomes SO
important an article of commerce that the
trade in 1t runs up into millions, and it
forms the staple of some of the largest
business enterprises of the country. 1t
appears that the temptation to defraud in
the manufacture of this article is so great
that it has proved practically irresistible
to large number. As result, we have
the report of number of chemists who
have been looking into the matter They
took sixteen brands, or samples, of So
called whitehead paints in the market,
and examined them thoroughly. The
Chicago Herald is authority for the follow
ing statement of the results:
OF the sixteen samples, eight. or so per cent,
were marked pure guaranteed English
white lead" pure pure lead,n best and
purest," 500 reward if not pure" and .'purest
and best" In two only OF the samples was
there more than 40 per cent. of white lead One
sample, marked pure guaranteed contained
a chemical trace of lead, and another, marked
pure, contained but 273 per cent. Each one
OF the samples was adulterated with sulphate of
barium and zinc white in proportions OF from
to Sc per cent. Barium sulphate, the most COM
mon adulterant, is heavy, absolutely worthless
as paint, and is worth about one cent a pound,
The cost OF making such stuff is about 81 60
hundred pounds, while the white lead for
which il is sold is worth s. 60 hundred pounds,
the tariff being cents pound Here is profit
| OF almost 80 per cent over and above an honest
profit.
OF course, as the Herald says, the con-
sumner of such stuff is simply robbed, and
as result he loses not only his money in
the original painting of his house, but he
is put to the cost, very soon, of doing the
work all over again. There is no law by
which those who put up these adulterated
paints can be reached, but there should be
some method of reaching them and all
other frauds of that order. Adulteration
and deceit in the common goods of every
day use appear to be growing so great
that il is asserted by some statisticians
that seven-tenths of all the articles of food
and household use commonly sold are i'm
pure, not genuine, or badly adulterated
Early in December bill was introduced
in Congress to prevent the aduiteration of
drugs, but we need laws great deal more
to prevent the adulteration of food, and
next, TO prevent the aduiteration Of COM
mercial staples that enter into the indus
trial arts.

Mr.. CHAUNCY T. BLACK is President
of the National League of Democratic
Clubs. Mr.. Black is far-seeing man, and
realizes that ballot-reform has come to
stay. But he is for it because it is right
the best of reasons. In letter to the
Young Mems Democratic Club of Brook
Ign, he recently said;
A real and complete reform is impossible
without the exclusive official ballo. Person
ally, and after very serious reflection, am con-
WINGED that the Australian system, specifically
and explicitly, without excisions or additions,
IS the measure for which every bsllot reformer
should steadily and uncompromisngly contend
and they should contend for it not merely until
they have compelled opponents to meet them
nall way but till they get it-straight, complete
and entire: Tried long and severely, not only
IN Australia, but in England, and now again in
America. there is no question remaining OF is
perfect adequacy.
Mr.. Black is in error, however, in say
ing that we want the Australian ballot
system Just as it is. For this country it
must be modified. For instance, the in
dorsing and numbering of the ballots to
correspond with the tally lists, will never
do with US, because it makes record of lust
how man yotes-the very thing that
should be unrecorded and unknown except
to the voter himself. So, too, we have no
non-voting class to preside over our cleo
lions, and We want none. There are other
notifications that we must insist upon,
but the central principle of the Australian
system is right. There has been no better
plan proposed for ballot reform than that
of the Young Mems Democratic League of
San Francisco. Under that system the
booth and the official ballot are retained,
but tag or corner with perforated line
on the ticket bears a number identical
with the number on the stub from which
the ticket is torn when delivered to the
elector. When he returns to deposit the
ballot, the Inspector, by the number on
the tag, which is outermost when the bal
lot is folded, identifies the ballot as having
been issued by the Election Board, and the
number, by reference to the poll-list, shows
that the elector is entitled to vote. The
tag number is then torn of, and the ballot
is cast, all possibility of identifying it hav-
ing been destroyed. That system seems to
US to be perfection, and far superior to the
Massachusetts, or Connecticut envelope
systems.

The propositions that the Emperor of
Germany lays before the Labor Conven-
ton called at his request prove to be tame.
There is nothing new in them, and moth
ing that demanded international confer
ence. He asks that Sunday labor, the
employment of children OF tender years,
and the employment of married women,
be taken up and discussed, and finally that
the Convention resolve at what age persons
should be permitted to work in coal mines.
All these topics have some value, but not
one of them is so important as to demand
Congress of Nations. Evidently the
young Emperor is posing for effect only.
We venture the assertion that his Labor
Congress will be laughing stock and will
come to naught

Governor DAVID B. HILL, of New
York, an embryo candidate for the Presi-
dency of the United States, notorious as
the only Governor in the Union who has
vetoed a ballot-reform bill, poses as the
friend of the workingman, and deals in
loud sounding phrases about his desire to
have the secrecy of the ballot conserved.
But this is how the workingmen of the
chief city of his own State 'put him up"
They held an immense mass meeting IN
Cooper Union the other night, and this is
the resolution they unanimously adopted
for the reading of Mr.. Hill over his toast
and coffee the next morning:
Resolred That we emphatically demand the
passage OF the Saxton ballot-reform bill; that
We call upon the workingmen of the State to
hold to strict accountability the Assemblymen
and Senators, and also the executive officers
irrespective of party, who oppose or attempt 10
defeat or prevent the said bill from becoming

Fifteen hundred working girls at
tended the recent convention held in
New York City for the purpose of pro-
noting the prosperity of female wage
workers. OF the gathering the Herald
says: "Welcome to the American
working girl! She speaks and beams
for herself-and for the cause of the in
tellectual and social advancement of a
class Of wage earners of whom the ma
ton is very proud. For her bravery
and cheeriness, for her independence
and spirit, for her womanly demeanor.
for her grace, self-possession, good sense
and ready wit, whether on or off the
stage, the metropolis lifts it's hat to her. 4"

Boise Statesman.
Concerning the origin and meaning
of the word "Idaho," which is destin-
ed to 60 echoing down the corridors of
ages as the name of the fairest and
brightest star in the galaxy of States,
there has already been enough written
to last until the Senators-elect from the
mountain gem make their maiden
speeches in the Senate Chamber at
Washington. The rivers have taken
their names from Indian words and
from the names of their first white ex-
plOrers, and have bestowed them upon
the valleys through which they flow,
which in turn have given these names
to the towns and settlements. The
many beautiful and interesting histor-
zeal associations connected with the
Snake river make the name of the
stream almost classical notwithstanding
its uncouth sound. The stream CHANGED
to be so called from the name of tribe
of Indians, the Shoshones, who were
thus called on account of their peculiar
style of horsemanship in which they
excelled all the other red denizens of
the plains in riding rapidly on serpen-
tine course. Lies Serpents, was what
the Canadian vOyageurs called them,
and LA riviere aux Serpents" was the
title by which these Canadian noun
taineers designated the stream which
flows through the country.
"Boise" is French word, meaning
wooded" and this name was also be-
slowed upon river and valley by these
same adventurous first visitors. Pay
cite, Weiser, Bruneau and several 9TH
ers were names of local chief traders in
the employ of the Hudson Bay Com
pany.
In Northern Idaho, the Clearwater
River took it's name from the Indian
word Kooskooskia, meaning waters of
crystal clearness. Lewiston was SO
named from Captain Lewis of the Lew
is and Clark expedition.
The Ceur d'Alenes were not "awl
hearted" Indians, nor Indians with
pointed hearts, as some have translated
the name. The word was at the start
one of those barbarisms of speech into
which uncultivated people sometimes
twist the words of their native Ian
guage for the purpose Of giving express
sion to a new idea.
The Canadian trappers and hunters
found tribe of Indians inhabiting the
country bordering on the beautiful
sheet of water since known as Cmur
d'Alene lake. These Indians were
strong of limb and fleet of foot-tireless
runners up hill and down hill, and their
first white visitors gave them the name
OF Cnur d'haleine, meaning that they
were strong breathed or long winded,
literally, "hearts of BREATH" In course
of time, the h, which is inaspirate in
French, was dropped, and also the in
the word, and thus we have to-day the
word "Alene," which, by this incident
Is identical with the French word,
which means "awl, a shoemakers tool.
So there is nothing "awl hearted" or
"pointed hearted" about these long
winded Ceur d'Alenes.
There remain the Pend d'Oreille and
several scores of other Idaho names
which form the reserve material for an
other chapter.

Increase of steamer Service.

Mr.. Jno. D. Spreckels in a recent
interview said that if the Bonus Ton
mage Bill for the encouragement of
American shipping should become a
law, it would result in greatly in
creasing the number of vessels in
the Oceanic Company's service. A
steamer would run weekly between
San Francisco and the Hawaiian
islands; between San Francisco and
Australia they would probably ply
fortnightly, and in addition a new
coast line between San Francisco aud
Valparaiso would be established.
