Failing i'm Line.

The government recommendation that
laws should be passed requiring baking
powders to be sold with a label giving
their true composition is being acted
upon with unusual promptness. Bills
are now pending in the legislatures of
Minnesota, Illinois and New York, re-
quiring baking powders containing
ammonia or alum to be so labeled.
But why stop here? Why not require
every package of baking powder to have
on it all the ingredients used? Common
sense ii not common law says that the
people have right to know what food
compounds are made of.
The bills, however, are right as far as
they go, and should be passed, for alum
and ammonia are not proper ingredients
of pure and wholesome baking powder
and are used simply to cheaper the'cost
and increase the profits to the manufac-
turer. The use of these ingredients is
not confined to the so-called "cheap
powders" and it will startle many to
know that the bill as introduced in the
New York legislature calls particular
attention to the fact that the Royal
Baking Powder, though advertised as
absolutely pure, is shown by official
examinations to contain ammonla.A
1t has been heretofore a general inn
preston that the passage of such law
would not affect the leading brands of
baking powder, but after careful ex-
animation, we are able to find only one
baking powder, the composition of
which is printed on the label, and this
is Cleveland's Superior Baking Powder.
The accuracy of the statement on the
Label is verified by such men as Prof.
Comey of Tufts College, DR.. Mott, late
government chemist, as well as present
Government Chemist Underwood, who,
after an examination of the leading
brands offered to the Indian department
of the government, said, "Cleveland's S is
the best in quality, highest i'll leavening
power, and perfectly wholesome.

in the Workmen hall, Thursday even
ing, under the auspices of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union.
Orange-tree planting will be kept up
until July.
The w. 9. T. U. folks are considering
the advisability of starting free read
ing room. As we already have public
library and free reading room, the prof.
ect is not a.commendable one. 1t may
be mentioned in connection with this
that the temperance folks of our town
express an undue amount of enthusiasm,
considering that this is already highly
moral and temperate community.
The fruit growers of this locality still
have full confidence in the navel orange.
The acreage being set to oranges this
season is principally of that variety. 1t
is believed that in the aggregate the ma
vel will yield more pounds of fruit than
any other variety, and the superior quail
ity of the fruit is unquestioned. The
navel orange can withstand competition
with any fruit, and in case of glutted
market. as some pessimists would ap-
prehend, the demand for this luscious
fruit would still be greater than the
supply.
The citizens OF this locality are de-
cidedly opposed to the issuance OF court
house bonds; not through any sectional
jealousy, however, but because it is
deemed bad financial policy for the
county to bond itself for $3.50, 900 at this
stage. We have an object lesson in the
experience of Los Angeles and San Diego
counties.

EDITORS HERALD: In view of the
harvest that is now ripe and being gath
cred, and in view of the needs of COM
merce and manufactures, it is warranted
that new era of prosperity is dawning.
AS there are already two transconti-
mental railways here, and a fair pros
pect of more coming here to do bust
ness, it is no more than justice to them
and to ourselves that we should have an
artificial harbor of not less than three
square miles capacity of anchorage in
forty feet of water or more. This can
be built. In fact, the party of the first
part has signed the contract to have
such harbor completed on or before the
1st day of July, 1894, and a wharf
within the bounds of the same COM
pleted on or before the 1st day Of July,
1892, at which ship and rail can meet
safely at all seasons and transfer their
cargoes, conditionally upon the issue OF
bonds by the county of certain value,
payable In twenty years, principal and
interest Such a harbor as has been
planned, and upon the submarine sur
veys for which has been expended more
than $35, ,OO0, would at once put us on
par with any place on the coast as
commercial and manufacturing center.
Miller once wrote:
"Dared but say prophecy
As said the holy men Of old,

Along these shining shores of gold;
what wondrous marvels might be told"

made to see their own interest in its

BRONCHITIS. CONSUMPTION.
BRONCHITIS


Bronchitis is a disease of the mucous mem
brane of the air passage, and is one Of the most
common of the pulmonary affections. Chronic
bronchitis more often appears later IN life.
Whena cold settles on the lungs the disease
either ends in bronchitis or pneumonia. Ii II
ends in bronchitis 1t usually passes off as cold
on the chest and stil the patient does not feel

exercise, and experiences shortness of breath
with more or less warmth in the paims of the
hands, Soon after this cough appears, ac-
companied by an expectoration of thick mu-
cous, followed by hectic flush, loss of flesh
the patient assumes all the appearance OF hay
ing genuine case of consumption. But this
is simply catarrh of the lungs or chronic bron-
chitis.
The patient usually dies from exhaustion
and suffocation, being unable to expectorate
the mucous which accumulates in the passage
leading to the lungs, which in some cases is
sticky and small in quantity, but more COM
monty copious, of light straw or yellowish
green.

Very many people. who regard themselves as
quite healthy, are today under its influence,
and are slowly but surely becoming the. vic

the most insidious of all pulmonary diseases.
There may at first be slight; hacking cough

ing difficult to raise after time becomes

feeling of oppression on the chest, particularly
after meals or on slight exertion. After time
the cough becomes more severe and comes ON
in parox ysms, and as the shortness of breath in
creases 1t almost assumes the character OF
asthma The mucous membrane also be-
comes more and more thickened, which arises
from the frequent fresh colds, and the patient
at last becomes fully aware of the terrible
