The House of Representatives did
right as far as it went. in passing that
lard filled cheese bill. The bill requires
the manufacturer to pay a license tax
of $500 4 year. the wholesale dealer 4
tax Of $3.50 year, and the retail dealer
a tax of $12 year. The manufacturer
is also required to pay a tax of one cent
a nound on all filed cheese made By
him. Efforts were made to reduce both
the license taxes and the pound tax.
but they were unsuccessful, except in
the case of retail dealers. whose Ii
cense tax was reduced from $40 to $l2 &
year The measure should also provide
a way in which this filled cheese may
not be palmed Off for the genuine. The
United States oleomargarine law
should prevent counterfeiting butter
as it does not by simply taxing the
counterfeit The tax is all right. as it
ensures purer product. but all of the
consumers pay it When they buy oleo-
margarine. and many think they are
buying butter when they pay nearly as
much for olcOmargarine.

Weight Of Rhode islands Influence.

In 1890 there were employed in Rhode
Island manufacturing establishments,
85,a76 people. The wages they received
amounted to S37,927.921: the value OF
the product was $142 ,50O.625. There were
in the Union but II states with more
people employed in manufacturing.
Those states were Connecticut. Illinois.
Indiana. Maryland, Massachusetts,
Michigan. Missouri, New Jersey, New
York, Ohio. Pennsylvania and Wiscon-

had but G3,S6l employees engaged in
manufacturing pursuits. In 1880 Rhode

argue that American manufacturers
cannot compete with foreign manufac-
turers unless we have free silver at

state that declares. unless American
manufacturers have recognition of the

what those sage brush soons have to

any truth in it, assuredly Rhode Island
