resolution was adopted:
To Hon. d. b. Pad fock, Chairman AgrScul-

The grocers and importers exchange of the
city of Philadelphia most respectfully ask your
honorable body to take into consideration their
protest against the passage of bill II r. H.
SOS, known as the Conger lard bill. While we
are desirous Of having laws regulating the
sale of all compound articles
used as food the provisions OF this
bill are such that it leglslates in favor of one
article Of food against another. The restric-
least degree, resembling lard, are equal to
prohibition of the manufacture and sale We
consider cotton seed oil wholesome and valua-
BILE for food We are opposed to any legista-
tion that favors one article OF food at the ex-
pense Of anctler.
The secretary of the exchange was in
