Facts About Milk.

Milk is apparently a whitish
Opaque liquid. In reality it con-
sists of a clear transparent fluid,
containing many minute globules
Of various sizes.
The fluid part is called milk
serum and consists of water and a
number of dissolved solids.
Suspended in the serum are little
globules of pure fat, which are semi
solid and form the serum, mix
ture called emulsion.
The solid constituents present in
the serum in larger quantity are
sugar and casein, albumen and
mineral matter in small quantities,
and also little fbrin, resembling
the fibrin of the blood.s
There is more sugar in milk than
any other solid condiment..
I Milk sugar can be separated and
brought into solid form and resem-
bles powdered white sugar. Its
chief use is medicinal. r
1t is the sugar which undergoes
the greatest change when the milk
becomes sour. ls.
Fat globules of different sizes are
found in the milk of any COW, but
with certain breeds the size is uni
formly larger than with other
breeds.
The milk of Jersey and Guern-
sey cows has globules of the largest
form, which explains why the cream
rises so rapidly on it.
One hundred pounds of good
milk contain 81 pounds of water,
four of fat, five of milk sugar, and
3.3 of casein and albumen, Z of
mineral matter or salts.

WHO SUPPORTS THE GOLD
PRERSR

The six and half million OF in
dependent voters who cast their bal
lots for William ]. Bryan expend
millions annually to maintain the
gold press which advocates the Eng
lish gold standard. 1t is true that
the very rich bankers and the own
ers of the great trusts support only
gold papers, but they are a very
small minority of the people Of the
United States. The great majority
of those who voted for Mckinley
and the gold standard are poor la
borers who voted the way their en-
ployers demanded to retain their
places and many Of those who are
out of employment also voted for
Mckinley under the promise Of fu-
ture employment. These people, as
a rule, are unable to be large con-
tributors to the support of the CIR
gaps Of gold monopoly. At least
one-half of the subscribers to the
gold press must be those who voted
against gold monopoly and who do
not approve of the doctrines taught
in the papers they buy. If those
Whip are really in favor of the res
toration OF silver and financial re-
form would support papers Of their
way of thinking, there would be no
difficulty in maintaining an honest
press which would give them the
news. Will they do it? We believe
they will.

The Trans-Mississippi EXPOSE
ton to be held in Omaha in 1898
will unquestionably accomplish
great good in bringing together the
varied interests of the greater west,
the agricultural and mining states
between the Gulf and Puget Sound,
and serve to cement the already
friendly relations existing between
the western and southern people.
1t will do for the s-Mississippi
States what the Atlanta Exposition
has done for the south, but in a
larger degree. Naturally Nebraska
will profit largely by having this
great exposition held on her SOIL
But the exposition will also greatly
benefit every State that participates.
Interested visitors will learn Of the
great opportunities our country Of

THERE is possibility that the
Loud bill will pass the U. S. Senate
and that it will receive the Presi-
dents signature. If this is the case
it will be one more instance OF how
the corporations make laws Tor
themselves and against the people.
A few more years and the people
will be afraid to breath the free air.
It is wonder some astute Congress
man has not introduced a bill al
lowing only so many cubic feet OF
air to breathe per day, unless ne
can pay for more. For Christ's sake
how much longer are the American
people going to submit to the dicta-
ton of the monied powers OF the
country? lift is not about time
for the South, with the aid of the
West this time, to secede and estab-
lish a government of their own we
would like to know the reason why.

The fact that Senator Wolcott, of
Colorado, has just been sent abroad
by the President-elect as an Am
bassador most extraordinary to
bring Europe to bimetallism is evil
deHoe that the gold standard is still
concealing its blessings from the
American people. If the gold stan
dard is civilization, why should we
risk a return to barbarism by chas-
ing after international bimetallism?
If this errand proves fruitless one,
it will only give additional evidence
that the United States must act
lone.-Wm. j. Bryan.

Two letters from Cuba were re-
ceived at the junta Office in New
York, Wednesday. One bore the
postmark of Los Villas, and the other
that of the Camaguey post-office.
Each had the postage stamp of the
Cuban republic fixed on the envel-
ope. The port from which these
were sent was, of course, not made
public. The iunta representatives
were much pleased at receiving the
communications, and say that Sec
rotary Olney's contention that they
have no regular post-office system
is refuted by the arrival of the let
ters and their prompt delivery by
Uncle Sans carriers.

DUBOIS has been defeated for U.

The Legislature In joint conven-
ton Tuesday elected John F. Jones
United States Senator from Nevada
for the fifth time. Of the forty-five
members Of the two houses forty
voted for Senator Jones, four of the
five Republicans casting their votes
for William Mcmillan of Storey
county, and Senator Skaggs of Elko
voting for Judge Fitzgerald of
Eureka.
1t is highly complimentary to
any American citizen to be elected
to the United States Senate, which
is the highest Office in the gift OF
the people of a State, but the return
of man for FIVE consecutive terms
is an honor conferred upon few in
dividuals.
Senator Jones, because of his un-
wavering fidelity to the cause of
monetary reform and the marked
ability which he displayed in pre-
senting the silver side of the ques-
ton not only to the United States
Senate, but to the International
Monetary conference at Brussels,
Belgium, to which he was a dele
gate, commanded the respect of BIZ
metallists the world over. Nevada,
proud of its silver champion, COM
mended his course in the State con-
vention at Elko and Endorsed him
for reelection. That the action Of
the convention was approved by the
people was conclusively shown at
the polls last November. Suisse
quently movement in favor of
"home rule" in Nevada was inaugu-
rated, but as the members of the
Legislature, except in few in
stances, were pledged by platform
and declaration to vote for Senator
Jones, the Silver men and Demo-
Gratis in caucus assembled nominal
ted that gentleman, and Tuesday
in joint convention of the two houses
he was declared elected United
States Senator from Nevada for six
years from the 4th of March, 1897,
by vote of 40to 5, one Republican,
Senator Kaiser of Churchill, voting
with the majority.
The course of the Legislature UNI
der existing circumstances could
not have been otherwise, as a party
to maintain its self respect and
command the confidence of the peo-
pie must, so far as lies in its power,
redeem after election the promises
which it made to the people before
election, otherwise party platforms
would be of no consequence and
their adoption would be worse than
nonsensical.
Though the "home rule" idea did
not and could not for obvious rea-
sons prevail in the Senatorial con-
test, the reputation of Senator Jones
as an advocate of free coinage out
weighing all other considerations,
it will, beyond question, influence
future elections, and no person who
is not an actual resident of the
State can henceforth reasonably
expect to be elected to any Office in
the gift of the people of Nevada

ANOTHER COAL OIL SCANDAL.

6NOlf1Eh COAl Oil OOANOAl
Pop irregularities and corrupt prac-
tees are becoming monOtonous. 1t
seems to be a Pop penchant to 90
crooked and then give themselves away
The latest organized steal unearthed is
q conspiracy of the state coal oil inspec-
tor and his deputies. Frank Elliot,
deputy, gives the snap away TO u. y.
Without, the manager of the Standard
Oil company at Topeka, who, In turn,
tells the whole thing 10 the Topeka
Journal. The scheme TO defraud the
state and then to impose bogus IN
spection upon the people, is an outrage
Gus one. The whole coal oil inspection
business is a humbug from start 10 in
ish, and was never anything else. The
Office was created in the interest of an
oil monopoly and of political bosses.
According TO Manager Without, Frank
Elliot a new Pop deputy, told him that
three deputies had it so arranged that
they would draw the salaries of five.
Besides this extra rake-off, the three
are 10 do the travelling Of five. They
propose to travel as state officials on
railroad passes and then collect five
cents a mile. which the law allows.
This mileage and extra inspection fees
will run up enormously. Another
scheme of the deputies is to force an
inspection of gasoline, which the law
hi .i1
$4,000 extra is to be raised annually.
All this is told in confidence but with
out any apparent reserve. Elliot said
that he expects to use his extra income
il defeating Cy Leland and the Repub-
lican party i'll the First congressional dis
trict
Another thing came out in this inter
view and that is, the inspection of oils
is not honest. Manager Without declares
that oils found below the standard are
not condemned, and that labels are
placed on empty barrels which are left
TO be filed by dealers with any oil,
however poor or dangerous, that may
come along. Oils were found in the
possession OF the Standard company
which fell seven degrees below the
safety scale, yet Manager Without says
they were not rejected nor was he for
hidden to sell them
The whole Oil inspection business Is
swindle from top to bottom and should
be abolished or otherwise conducted
under different law and in a way TO
protect the people against dangerous
oils and the state against the pecuia-
