THE CoNGER LARD BILL.

The Alliances in the cotton districts
would be quite apt to diverge on ques-
tions like that of the CoNGER lard bill.
The National Alliance at Ocala, Fla, re-
solved against it,, while the Iowa Alli-
ance has Endorsed it. and probably all
the Alliances in the North favor 1t.
The object of the measure is much the
same as that of the oleomargarine law.
1t is to check the manufacture of cheap
compounds that pass as pure lard and
affect the legitimate production. To ac-
complisn this the CoNGER bill imposes
a tax OF from 8 to 5 cents a pound on all
compounds sold as lard, and requires
tina. such authorizations shall be dis
tinctly labeled, and sold only as the imi-
tation article. The debased stuff is de-
rived from the mixture of four pounds
Of cottonseed oil with one pound
OF tallow. This passes as pure lard,
and of course can be sold very cheap.
The cOttonseed oil costs less than the
taiiow,and the compound is away out of
sight OF the genuine article. The object
OF the bill is the same as that of the
oleomargarine act. 1t will not prohibit
the manufacture and use of the COM
pound, but will require it to stand as
the compound, and not come into COM
petition with the pure hog product. 1t
is not alleged that the compound is un-
healthful; no question is raised on that
point. 1t is a product of the cotton
states and affords a market for their cot
ton seed, as the factories that make the
compound buy it. Their interest in the
hog product is much less; consequently
they are opposed to all legislation for
the benefit of pure lard. If there are
no sanitary grounds its manufacture
cannot be prohibited, but it should be
made tt stand in its true character.

A Notorious Character Tries to
Burn a Town
Sioux CITY, To-, Jan. 18.-Great ex-
element is aroused by two attempts
made late last night to fire the town of
Covington, Neb., across the Missouri
from here. Five buildings were fired
and nine prepared, all of them being
dives communicating with other build
ings. chiefly frame. In each case auger
holes had been bored through the sid
ings and oil poured in. Preparations
had been made to destroy the pontoon
bridge to cut off assistance from here,
and it was at first believed to be the
work of %vigilanters to destroy and rid
the place of bad resorts and tough char
acters, but this afternoon Bob Satter,
alias "Beefsteak Bob" a notorious
character, was arrested on strong cir
cumstantial evidence. Coyington is
patrolled tonight by sixteen special
policemen armed with Winchester
rifles.

the engineer, was killed He also said
that the fireman and all the crew, save

1t was passenger train and another re-

A wild rumor foated just as we went

fire boys had been killed, but no credit is
attached to the rumor.
We have tried all ways possible to get
further information but have failed to
this time.
Another report says, and it is ap-
parently authentic, as it came by way of
Raleigh, that forty persons were killed.
There were ten of the AsheVille fire COM
pany who left here last night. 1t is sup
posed that they all were killed.
The accident happened three miles the
other side of Statesyille The train went
