Pittsburg Oleomargarine Dealers to Stand
by Their Brethren in Philadelphia
The Law a Dead Letter Here-Talk of
One of the Combine.
1t was learned yesterday from local deal
ers in oleomargarine that the Philadelphia
dealers, though tardy, would be backed in
their war against discrimination. OF course
it is pretty generally known that the law III
Pittsburg has been to a very great extent a dead
letter for long time, and it has met the fate
common to laws that are not supported by public
sentiment, and all that public sentiment has
yet decided is that it wants law that will stop
masquerading. When it buys cow butter it
wants to know it, and also when it buys bull
butter. ...
All that could be gotten out of Pittsburg bull
butter dealers yesterday was pla1nly-eN-
pressed intention, though not in express words,
that the business would 60 on Just about as
usual One who represents powerful combi-
nation said: I'VE think we have good case
ia law, and will never surrender until whipped
in the court of last resort We offer the public
a healthy product, much superior to most Of
the dairy product offered and at less price,
and much cleaner article, and we will never
be satisfied that our business is unlawful until
the highest court in the land says it is.
will we ask the present Legislature to re-
peal the lawf Well, not If we know ourselves.
This Legislature IS controlled by. dairy-naids
and OF course 1t would be loves labor lost to ask
relief at its hands. But we expect to see the
day, and that soon when our business is not
only legalized, but cow-butter makers put on
their Inettle to hold the market against our
product, both standing on their respective
merits. Pennsylvania to-day is deprived of the
earnings of thousands of men and of as many
tons of product which is manufactured in other
States and sold here under the operation of the
present anti-oleomargine law"

JUST-LIKE A NEW MAN.

Southsider Being Cured of Consumption
With Koch's Lymph in Philadelphia
How the Remedy Affects Him - No
Great Change in Local Cases.
William Schultz, of the Southside, who is
at present under treatment by the Koch
lymph process in Philadelphia, writes to
his brother-in-law, f. N. Stucky, very
ment for three weeks. and states that he is al
ready feeling like new man. On Saturday last
he received another injection of eight milo
grams. an increase of seven and a half milo
grams over the first dose. and which he could
feel permeating his entire system, and while it
smarted to a considerable extent, he was salts
fed it was doing good and killing the germs.
His cough is better. and he does not expert
ence the trouble of coughing and eXpector-
atng as much as formerly. Also. the night
sweats, which he had before treatment. have
ceased entirely.
The physician in charge has pronounced his
case a bona fide one of consumption, yet he has
every confidence Of curing him, feat which
will take from three to four months. There
are ten patients heing treated with him at
present, one OF whom has been there four
weeks longer than Mr.. Schultz and is greatly
improved The doctor is highly interested in
all the cases. and is watching them closely, and
says he will not let one of them go away as long
as he can do them the least bit of good.
Mr.. Stucky says he has written Mr.. Schultz
that he can be treated at home, as supply of
the lymph has been received here. but he an
swered that he was perfectly satisfied with the
treatment in Philadelphia, and will stay there
as long as it continues to do him good.
The patients under treatment OF the West
Penn Hospital are doing fairly well. but it is
too soon to tell whether there is any material
change for the better, says the physician in
charge.

act of Assembly. l do not deem it neces-
sary to elaborate this opinion, or to
attempt TO strengthen it by any argu-
ment beyond what l have already
stated. 1t is question of first
impression and II seems to me to be determined
by the GEAR and express language of the act l
cannot advise you to receive taxes in April and
date your receipts as of March 81. for that pro-
ceeding, suggested in the resolution, does not
strengthen the position. Ii you have a right to
allow the per cent abatement upon taxes paid
in the month of April, the act would not be
strengthened by dating the receipts month
prior 1t may be that this course would be
generally favored, but the question is not one
of popular favor. 1t involves your official posi-
tion and the responsibility under which you are
acting. Upon question of this kind the courts
would not decide the law by any rule OF popular
favor. 1t is the right of any party interested
to object and unless you had a stronger in
delnnity than the opinion of even a majority of
the people, you would not be protected by do
ing what seems to be illegal. / regret there
fore, that am compelled to advise you that
you cannot allow a discount upon taxes which
may be paid to you in the month OF April, but
only upon such taxes as may be paid to you
within the month of March.
