AFTER THR CARNIVAL.

The fools and lunatics having done
their woret, we are now at liberty to
take a calm survey OF the situation.
There has probably rarely been such q
monkey and parrot time as we have had
In Los Angeles since Monday last. This
is slang, we admit, but we heartily wish
that we could find more rakish language
in characterizing the antics OF the past
few days. A great community has been
looted as eIectually as il Ii had been
invaded by foreign army and contri-
button had been levied upon 1t, and this
Such an unredeemed instance Of finan-
cial har-kar has never been s.nown in
the history OF this state 1t is only ex-
plicable on the theory that new dis
ease known as midsummer madness has
become end emic in our midst, and that
it is q malady that lasts exactly three
days, beginning gently, attaining great
fury on tho second day and absting as
mysteriously as it made it's appearance.
Almost the last crazy individual took
to his hole yesterday, and drew the hole
in after him. The safe deposit vaults,
all the old stockings and the stray hooks
and crannies, have been filled with gold
and notes. 1t ought to be about time
for the burglar to get in his work in good
style, and even the footpad might have
done handy stroke OF work, but these
ordinarily active personages. very for
tunately under the circumstances, seem
to have developed an extraordinary tor
por. They will doubtless be heard from
ehortly.
Having succeeded by dint OF extraor.
dinary energy, in getting their money
out of the banks, the next question Is,
"What will they do with it?" Cash
earns nothing by being hidden in hole
in the ground, or in an old fire place or
an old stocking, while there are many
chances of it's disappearing in the hands
of inexperienced persons. The proba-
bilities are that it will either be redepos-
tied or invested in real estate.
A railway magnate of considerable
note yesterday told the writer that he
had had occasion to give come attention
to the condition OF our banks, and that
in his opinion no banking institutions
in the United States were in a better
condition than they. Their reserve of
cash was, AZ general thing, far beyond
that required by eastern banks, and was
quite twice that generally kept on hand
by the Bank Of England. There has
been no speculation here. Oar crops
have been abundant and there has been
good demand for our products. All
the conditions OF prosperity have exist
ed in unusual profusion, and yet what
spectacle
Weare probably permitted to console
ourselves with that trite saying, cit
might have been worse" People fool
isA enough to be scared by bogie might
have stayed in condition OF panic for
months. The reaction has been as
great as the panic. It is assumed that
most of the banks which have closed
their doors will shortly reopen and that
confidence will be quickly restored.

THE king is dead live the king. Stan

The Secretary of the Inte-

lille DecTetdTv 0I tue iutS-

Foreign trade continues to
show heavy adverse balance. and
this state of affairs will not change
until the new crop begins to move,
but the relation of this fact to
the gold exports is not clear. True,
lit is an an old idea that an excess
of imports of anv magnitude and
of considerable duration Is bound
to start gold away, and the same
idea is industriously worked now
but if one will study the move
ments of the precious metals in
connection with foreign trade fol
a series of years, he will find much
to make him skeptical on this
point. We have shipped millions
of gold abroad, when at the same
time we were marketing more o.
our agricultural products abroac
than ever before or since in the
history of the country.

The ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE.
Looking After the Alum and Am
monia Baking Powders.

A bill for an act entitled can
act to Regulate the traffic in Bak-
ing Powder hes been introduced
in the Legislature at Springfield
by Mr.. Nohe. The bill is intended
to prevent the authorizations of
baking powders with Ammonia or
Alum, imposing proper penalties
to enforce the law, etc. This shows
an earnest desire on the part of
our representatives to protect
their constituents.
The Chicago Tribune, referring
to the question of legislation on
Alum and Ammonia baking pow
ders, says: "It deals in direct
manner with an evil that must be
cut down.
Following is a partial list of
the names of the brands sold in
this State that have been exsmin-
ed and found to contain either
Ammonia or Alum. Many of the
Alum and Ammon powders are
labeled and advertised as abso-
lutely pure to mislead the public.
Calumet" ""Forest City" ""Chi-
cago Yeast" "Grant's Bon Bon,'
"Hotel," "Taylors One Spoon
"Snow Puff" "Snow Ball, ""Zipp's
Crystal, Climax" Town Talk, "
Manhattan, ""Rocket," Evans, u
"Little Giant" aspot Cash.
"Echo," Empire "Dodson and
His" "Shepard's," "Bain's, .
"Kent9n,' "KC," Loyal"
In addition 10 the above list
there is multitude of brands sold
with prize. 1t is safe to reject
all baking powders sold with 8
prize, as the tests show they are
composed largely of alum and cost
but few cents per pound. Also
refuse any baking powder sold al
twenty-five cents pound, or less
it is sure to contain Alum.
Surely nothing but their cheap.
ness could nluce the public to ex.
pertinent with these impure pow
ders at the risk of health. Aside
from the question of health or the
wholesomeness Of these condemn
ed powders, and viewed from the
standpoint of economy alone, g
pure cream of tartar baking pow,
der like CDR. Price's,'' from its
greater known strength and un-
questioned purity, will prove more
economical to the user in every
WAY.
