FOR PURE FOOD.
Laudable Action by Boards of Health
Upon the Baking Powder Question.

Laudable Action by Boards of Health
Upon the Baking Powder Question.
Boards of health can engage in no more
commendabie action than the examina-
ton of our food supply and the instruc-
ton of the public as to those articles
which are found to be pure and whole
some, and which therefore consumers
should use.
Action of this kind with the baking
powders is particularly opportune. There
are quantities of baking powders in the
market to use which is certain detriment
to the health of the consumer. They are
made from alum or improperly COM
pounded from other chemicals so that
they leave a strong alkaline residuum in
the food. Many OF these powders, having
proved unstable in the East, have been
collected by their manufacturers from the
dealers with whom they were left on COM
mission and shipped to the Pacific coast.
In the effort to gain a foothold In this
market unscrupulous manufacturers OF
these cheaply made, low grade baking
poyders have INDUCED in extravagant
statements both with reference to their
own and other brands, claiming the most
improbable Endorsements for theirs. and
defaming the brands best known and long
est used upon the Pacific coast.
The following extracts from the reports
of some of our wel-known health authori-
ties will be OF particular interest:
The state chemist of Washington, Pro-
fessor G.. A. Bethune, says There Is,
therefore. no question but the Royal Is the
strongest, purest and most wholesome
baking powder in the market.
The Seattle board of health says: Find
ing in analysis that it is made OF the nigh
est grade of cream of tartar and bicar-
honate of soda. and is entirely free from
any adulteration, We heartily recommend
the ROYAL Baking Powder for its great
strength, purity and wholesomeness.
The Tacoma board of health says I'm
our Judgment, the Royal is the best ana
strongest baking powder before the public.
We confidently recommend it because OF
its purity and care of preparation"
The Spokane city board of health re-
mort. There is certainly no baking pow
der known TO US equal to the Royai IoF
strength and uniform quality, and we
recommend II for its absolute purity anu
wholesomeness.

Francisco, after extended tests, said oil the

Special Correspondence to the HERALp.J

Especial Correspondence to the HERALD
Il REDLANDs, Feb. IS, 1892.
Promptly at O'Clock this morning
the trial of Drs. Riggs & Spoor, the drug
gists charged with selling liquor con-
tfary to law, was resumed before Justice
Camp. Every available seat was occu-
pied, and there was barely standing
room. The prosecution rested, and the
defense put Detective Duryea's and Drs.
Riggs & Spoor on the stand. Both of
the physicians testifeds that they had
given strict orders to their clerks to sell
no liquor without a prescription, and
had never been personally cognizant OF
single instance when the law was vio7
lated. In the afternoon counsel argued
the case, and at 4 80 O'Clock the jury re-
turned verdict of not guilty, after hav-
ing been out about forty minutes. It
was received with manifestations of great
satisfaction by nearly every one present.
By consent of the prosecution the two
remaining charges against Druggist
Stewart were dismissed, and the whole
subject became numbered with the has
beens of the city's career. No question
has ever aroused so much feeling in this
usually peaceful community. The his
tory of the trouble dates back some
months ago when the board of trustees
refused to grant renewal of the license
then held by the one saloon here, and
that establishment was forced to close
it's doors. Subsequently it was rumored
among Prohibition circles that liquor
was being sold freely at the two drug
stores in question, and committee of
prominent Prohibitionists met and de-
cided to prosecute them. j. S. Edwards
was selected to carry out their wishes,
and he soon swore to several complaints
on which the trials which have ended
so satisfactorily to the druggists were
based.
A great deal of severe comment is
made upon the fact that private de-
tective was employed to spy upon
the people, high and low, in
fluential and otherwise, whom it
was thought might be detected in tax
ing a drink. Nearly every one con-
demns this course as disgusting in the
extreme, and hard words are freely
spoken. 1t is intimated very strongly
that the druggists will now have Mr..
Edwards arrested for perjury, and will,
in addition, sue him individually for
$25, 900 damages.
AS the Redlands orange groves come
into bearing and the quantity of fruit
becomes larger, the necessity for police
surveillance becomes more apparent,
and in order to meet this demand the
| trustees at their last meeting concluded
to appoint number of orange growers
| as special policemen, to serve without
pay. Those appointed include Messrs
Ell. Waite, F. M. Hunt, E. B. Waite,
J. S. Edwards, J. W. F. Diss, Alfred
Bradley, A. G. Saunders, @. H. Lathrop
Isaac Jones, w. A.. Rogers and A. G.
