Profit in Stock.

Adulterated Cheese.

1t is claimed that the sale of skim
cheese has grown to large proportions
on this coast, but we dare say that
there are few persons who deal in
them, let alone the consumers, who
are aware how they are made. On
this coast, skim cheese is manufac-
tured OF emulsion of'refned lard and
skim milk. At the East, q large pro.
portion is made OF emulsion OF refined
lard and potatoes, no milk being used
How the emulsion of refined lard is
prepared is a secret, but it cannot be
very expensive, for skim cheese sell in
our market, in jobbing lots, ataround
five cents a pound, while at the East
they are sold for still less money. The
manufacturing and also the dealer in
oleomargacine and butterine are
liable by law to severe punishment if
they sell either without proper notice
to purchasers yet cheese made chief
~ OF hog fat or cotton-seed oil is sold
TO- unsuspecting persons as cheese
made from milk. It's consumption in
quantity undermines health, even if it
does non entail death, yet the person
or persons who are instrumental in
this health destroying business 20 un-
punished. Organized farmers, who
did SO much to have laws passed de-
timing oleomargarine and visiting with
severe punishment those who manu-
tacture and also those who deal in it
without proper safeguard for the
general public, would do well to have
similar laws passed about skim
cheese. Pacific Rural Press.
Why the Dairy Does Not Pay.
. One OF the prime reasons why the
dairy does not pay better, is that
there is not an equalized produc-
ton OF dairy produce, and the sur
plus now comes when it is the most
difficult season to carry it an I'M
changed condition, so that there is a
constant effort on the part Of the
sellers to force this butter and cheese
upon the market, to the demoraliza-
ton OF prices. The answer often
made is that there are no winter
factories near us. The factory
closes its doors the 18th OF Novem-
Der. Why did it close it's doors? Was
there a supply of milk in sight for
five months to come? Had the far
n1ers tried to have a supply of milk
to keep the factory open? In these
days Of demand for fresh made dairy
produce the year round, there is no
factory man SO stupid as to shut up
his factory with 5000 pounds OF
milk to be had daily for the winter,
when this means a profitable income
to him through the winter. AS a
rule the farmer is about the only
man who can afford to stop business
and forego income for five or six
months every year, and especially
when dairy produce is selling at
double the prices that the same
goods bring in the summer. These
are fac worth looking up and acting
upon Farmer.

WHY SOUTHERN DEMOCRATS SUP
PORT CLEVELAND.

He Vetoed Pension Bills by Hundreds.
Hence They Will Support Him, Even
II They Don's Like Him-What South
ern Democrats Are Saying.
The north wants sympathy. It calls
Cleveland brutal because he slapped the
crowd of hungry camp followers and
bummers in the face when he vetoed a
few hundred pension bills, and the south
proposes to reward him for it. The
northern papers yell because Stevenson
belonged to the Knights of the Golden
Circle, and yet that was right Steven
son had. They should remember what
the northern armies did when they in
vaded this country-this fair, peaceful
and prosperous land in the dark days of
1851. That wretched crowd of thieves,
bummers,. plunderers and libertines left
monuments more enduring than those
which Sherman left, in the way of
ruined homes and burned cities.
And then these northern Papers take
such pillage and murder and paint
words so seductive that it gets up SEN
timent at the north and makes it posi-
BILE to pension every scoundrel who took
part in the red handed tragedy.
Grover Cleveland wrote his record
clear. He despised to fawn or fatter,
and when the beggars who never saw
real service and those who did came
along with their hand organs and their
monkeys, begging money from the pub

that money, slapped the sneaks in the
face with his strong right hand and
kicked them over the dashboard with his
strong right foot. He served 'em right

The Democratic State Committee En-

ST. PAUL, Oct. 1.-THE Democrats
and Peoples party have fused on their
electoral tickets. Each party will have
an electoral ticket in the field, but the
Democratic ticket will include the
names of five Democrats and four Popu-

names or nine Populists upon it. It is
stated that the Populists are not parties
to this deal, and that it is move on the
part OF the Democratic state central
committee to carry out the so-called
German policy, that is, in states where
a majority of the voters are Republican
or where there is certain to be a Re-
publican plurality, the Democrats shall
endorse a certain number of the Peo-

Their Last Piece of Outlawry.
The SIX outlaws came into the town to-
gether on horseback about $3.50 o'clock
and leaving their herses in an alley
walked rapidly across the square and
four entered Condon's bank and two
the First National. At Condon's bank
the dssperadoes were told by Cashier
Ball that the time lock would not be
open until 10 o'clock, SO, holding their
Winchesters on Ball and Teller Charles
Carpenter, they said they would wait,
meanwhile taking the money In the
drawers. Bob and Emmett Dalton
were the two who took in the First
National. Hero were Cashier Ayres. his
son and Teller F. II. Shepherd. They
were forced to give up all the money in
the safe which was
Hastily Showed Into Bags.
The Daltons then forced the three out
of the front door and followed right
after them. The alarm had in the
meantime been given, and as the out
laws appeared George Cubine, a mer-
chant, and Express Agent Cox shot at
one of them badly wounding him. The
outlaws then returned the fire killing
Cubine. The robbers in Condon's bank
shot out of the window, hitting Ayres
and Brown. Both robbers ran back
through the bank when they met Bald
win and fatally wounded him. The cit
liens being thoroughly aroused by this
time were hot and heavy after them and
after fight in which City Marshal
Connolly was killed, succeeded in kill
ing the four desperadoes named and
MORALLY wounding Emmett.
This is the old home of the Daltons
and it is peculiarly appropriate that the
world should be rid OF the gang here.
Great excitement prevails and if the
other man is found he will be sum-
marily dealt with.
The Daltons were second cousins of
the James boys and nephews of the
