THEY TALKED AND SMOKED
Rousing Mass-Meeting and Social
of Carpenters and
Painters.
Hearty Endorsement of the Movement
of Workingmen to Enter the
Political Campaign.

Never since the building trades of this
City have been organized has there been
such an enthusiastic gathering as there
was last evening at the mass-meeting
and smoker held in the Temple, at
1T Turk street. The affair was given by
the carpenters and painters, under the
auspices of the District Council of Carpen-
ters and Joiners. The large hall was
crowded to the doors, the speakers ad-
dresses were delivered with snap that
pleased the audience, and in the intervals
instrumental music was rendered.
Then cigars were passed. On the whole
every one had pleasant time and
promised himself to 60 again, as the
chairman, ]. E. McVicker, said that similar
meetings would be held every month.
The first speaker was c. F. Schadt, the
carpenters business agent. He explained
the object of the mass-meeting, saying
that it was for the purpose of bringing the
various branches of the building trades
together in social manner.
1t was the desire, he said, for all branches
TO become better acquainted than they be-
come in their daily work. More than that,
it was the desire to induce all nom union
men in these trades to meet with those
who belong to the unions, and no bett er
opportunity could De had than at soci al
smokers"
P Ross Martin delivered an interesting
speech in which he reviewed the labor
union movement from its incipiency 10

leaders used to wonder why the interests

goers that have seen these speedy per-
formers go to the post. Gallant, who has
reached the wire first on different occa-
and Llbertine, is grand looking animal

sports the colors OF A. B. SpreckeIs, pres;-

tests, and We use only the best scientific

tests, and We use only the best scientific
apparatus.
1--WE are determined to have the best
milk supply in the world, and in Justice to
the dealers / will say that the supply is
now about as good as can be found In any
city. In almost every instance the test
shows the milk to be away above the re-
quired standard. When the people know
about these bulletins, and consult them
every month, no dealer can afford to have
his dairy recorded as in poor sanitary con-
dition. No dealer will then add water to
his milk if he knows that his percentage
of butter fats and cream will be thereby
made lower than that shown in the rec
ords of rivals. It is all brought down to &
plain business proposition, and there is no
way of avoiding the results by com mbina-
ton.
THE dealers are very willing to adopt
the suggestions made by this department
for the improvement of their dairies, and
the showing for next month will undoubt-
edly be a gratifying one as the result Of
the first bulletin
at the Friday evening meeting of the
Alameda Board of Health Veterinary In
q
work. he called attention to the fact that
there can be no prosecution for selling un
labeled skinned milk. The only proceed
ing permissible is under the general penal
provision against adulterated milk. An
other great obstacle against which he has
to contend is the ordinance which requires
the detection of the milkman in the actual
delivery of adulterated milk. He wants
to have the law amended so that dealers
may be punished for having adulterated
milk in their possession.
In speaking of the management of
dairies he showed that it is not SO much
the art of feeding as the art of knowing the
quantity and variety Of feed to be given to
cows, which is the successful factor in
bringing up the percentage of butter and
cream fats.
Another measure adopted by the
Alameda Board of Health is a requirement
