Points for the Farmers.

The Sentinel has commented onthe
wonderful growth of the cities of this
state during the past ten years. The
population of the cities containing
5000 or more ten years ago has in
creased about 225,OOO. In 1880
there were but twenty Of our cities
with a population of 1000 or more /;
now there are thirty-four such cities
in the state.
The marked disparity in the rate of
increase of the city as compared with
the rural population is due to the de-
velopment of manufacturing enter
prises, which in turn is largely the re-
suit of the policy of protection
Each one of these cities forms a
market for the agricultural produce
of the adjacent country. The growth
of each contributes to benefit the far
mer, by enlarging the number of those
who consume his products. They fur
nish the most important market, the
home market. They take from the
farmers in large quantities articles
which will not bear transportation
to distant market, and thus tend
to diversity the staples cultivated by
the farmers, while enhancing their
price.
The Democratic party, which is now
professedly feeling very deep con-
Germ for the farmers, would change all
this. They propose policy which
would close up many of our manu-
featuring industries, and depress most
of them, driving those to whom they
now give employment upon the land
to become the producers of grain and
other farm staples instead of con-
sumers.
We believe that the farmers of Wis
consin, when they reflect on this sub
ject, will prove too intelligent to be
led into the support of a policy so
clearly opposed to their own interest.

TEE Milwaukee Journal, in a triple
loaded arrangement of the Republican
party, on Tuesday, concludes a list
of several unsatisfactory things with
the following:
cit has refused to make the most
needful and pressing reforms, and has
relied on force and compulsion to &C
complish ends, wrong in principle and
useless in practice, that let alone,
would better accomplish themselves. "
Why then is it not a credit to the
Republican party if it hindered the
accomplishment of these bad things
which If it had let them alone would
have better accomplished themselves?

The Public Will Appreciate 1t.

The public are indebted to the Roy
al Baking Powder company not more
for having perfected and prepared a
leavening agent that is pure and
wholesome beyond a question than
for it's exposure, so boldly made, OF
the numerous impure, adulterated
and injurious articles that are sold
under the name of baking powders,
bread preparations, ETC., throughout
the country. In making these expos
ures the company has, of course,
made itself the target for all sorts OF
counter attacks, but the animus OF
these attacks has been perfectly un-
derstood by the general public, and
by their very virulence have served
to more prominently call attention
to the good work of the "Royal +"
company.
Ordinary authorizations such as are
found in coffee. spices, ETC., although
they are swindles in a commercial
sense, are often tolerated because
they do not particularly affect the
health of the consumer. But when an
article like baking powder, that is re-
lied upon for the healthful prepara-
ton of almost every meal, is so made
as to carry highly injurious if not
rankly poisonous elements into our
daily food, it is the duty of the pub
Tic authorities to take cognizance of it..
In this fight for pure feod made by
the "Royal" company, it is to be no
ticed that the most trustworthy sci
entific authorities are alphabetically
upon it's side. In all the contests Of
this company with the alum and other
impure baking powders theresult,has
proved that every statement made
by the Royal Baking Powder COM
pany, both as to the purity of it's
own and the adulteration of other
baking powders of the market, was
fully authorized by the most COM
petent chemical and medical author
tiles of the country.
In this contest two facts have been
pretty conclusively settled in the
minds of the public-the first that the
Royal company has found the means,
and uses them, to make g. chemically
pure article of food; and the other
that the market is full of poisonous,
alum and other adulterated baking
powders, which, no matter how
strongly endorsed by commercial
chemists, are to be studiously avoid
ed.
A pure baking powder is one Of the
chief aids to the cook in preparing
perfect and wholesome food. The re-
cent controversy in the press has left
it no longer a question with those
who desire purity and wholesomeness
of food what baking powder they
shall use.
