Assuming that "hlled" cheese is In

does not appear that the dairy men have
any ground to stand ON in their attack
on the ways and means committee. Take

raised great cry for protection against
butter substitutes and they got 1t in the
Their expectation was that this
jmpost would drive oleomarga-
rine from the market and leave
them without competition in the sale of
butter. They would then have been able
to demand from 30 to 80 cents a pound
for their product and the people who
couldn't afford TO pay such fancy prices
would have to be content with unbuttered
bread. But they were sadly disappointed
In every way. People who were unable
to pay the high prices for dairy butter
found In oleomargarine an acceptable
and wholesome substitute and instead of
refusing to buy. II when the tax was
placed upon IT their demand for 1t in
creased, even at the additional cost OF
two cents pound, which of course. was
added by the manufacturers to meet the
tax imposed by Congress at the solicitar
tion Of the dairy men. Thus the users
Of oleo, who by the way, constitute a
majority OF the people of this country, are
compelled to pay two cents a pound for
Z good article merely because a certain
class Of producers demand protection and
really get the kind of protection which
DOESN'T protect; but the poor people
have to pay that two cents pound Just
the same.
OF course this IL wrong in principle
and pernicious In practice. Congress
should not impose q tax which must be
paid by one class OF citizens in order that

I One of New York's representatives In
Congress. Mr.. David 4. Wilbur, is a dairy
man himself, and some time ago he
framed and introduced bill which put
heavy tax on "filled" cheese, the purpose
being to thus discourage, and, in fact,
prevent, its manufacture altogether. The
measure went to the House committee on
ways and means and now Ii turns out
that this committee does rot propose to
report the Wilbur bill, but to bring In a
substitute, which the diary men say Is
worse than nothing at all, as IT fails to
give them the protection they desire.

should have prohibited its manufacture
altogether, instead Of licensing II and by
imposing tax. Not being upwhole-
some, but valuable addition to the list
OF food articles, IL should be free from any
impost. just az beef and pork and hour
Providence there are manufactured every
week q million or more pounds OF oleo-
margarine and butterine and from this
one can very easily imagine what an inn
mense sum Is being taken out OF the
pockets of the poor merely TO conciliate
the dairy interest. The same remarks APP
ply TO this new cry for protection against
hfilledO cheese. III "tlled" cheese Is
unwholesome or dangerous let its manu-
facture be prohibited. II 1t Is not let
no further restrictions be placed upon 1t
than such as NAV be found necessary to
have il sold for what 1t is and not offered
by dishonest dealers for the real article.

Another Advance Made.

The Keelev cure has been introduced
into the Sk Agnes Hospital, Baltimore,
Md. TfSgood Sisters realize that in
the Kelley cure is found the only hope
for those addicted to the liquor and
morphine habits, and have made a
contract with the Keely Institute of
Maryland by which the Keeley treat
ment shall be administered at their hos.
pital by regular physicians instructed
by DR.. Kelley. This is another argu-
ment proving that the Sisters of Char
ity occupy the front place in the care
of the diseased and in the service of
suffering humanity. The treatment
was adopted four years ago by. the
United States government and is used
at the National home. Proving so ef-
ficacious the treatment is now given
at Fort Leavenworth Post, to the Off
GERS and enlisted men of the regular
army. During the past two years the
States of Maryland, Minnesota, Colo
RADIO, Louisiana, North Dakota, Wis
consin and others have by legislative
enactments provided that INDECENT
liquor and morphine habitues begiven
the treatment.

self in the happy terms with which he
introduced the veteran orator, paying
merited tribute to the fraternal spirit
which had always characterized the
relations of that State to Carolina.
In our hour of need, he said, her sons
had, with promptness and ardor
born of true brotherhood. given their
lives for our defense, and when the
common cause went down in disaster,
the wise counsels of her noble states
men and soldiers had been given to
sustain US. Their spirit of hope had
assisted us to bring about return of
peace and prosperity. 1t was but nat
ural, therefore, that at this first ami
versary of our organization he should
turn to Georgia and ask her gallant
son, who stood as leader of her hero
ic Confederates, to come over and
share with us the joys which this oc.
casion inspired.
Gen. Evans held the attention of
the vast audience for more than an
hour. Almost every sentence of his
magnetic address drew responsive
demonstrations of applause. When
Genl. Evans closed, Major Wood, of
New Orleans, representative of the
Battle Abbey fund, the generous pro.
posal of George Rouss of New York,
was introduced. He explained the
