men in San Quentin that
has induced him to keep
Long Green Lawrence and
his ilk on his payroll.
Surely along these lines
lies the explanation of the
Janus-faced character of the
Examiner. There was no
particular reason at the time
the Examiner engaged to
take convict-made tWine
that any such desperate
and questionable expedient
of economy should be re-
sorted to, except that its
proprietor saw in those days
the inroads into his Golfers
his newspaper venture in
New York was about to
make. But to a man of
his wealth the difference be-
tween the price of free
labor tWine and the convict
made article for wrapping
purposes was surely not a
matter of great import.
The accounts of the jute-
mill show that since its
trade was transferred to the
prison a little over three and
a half tons of twine was
used in the circulation of
the Examiner. The product
cost 5 IL cents a pound.
Yet, had Mr.. Hearst de-
sired to get rates in the
open market he would not
have had to pay over s cents
a pound for as good an arti-
Gle as he was furnished by
the striped jutemill work.
men.
There is a serious side to
the course Mr.. Hearst is
pursuing. There is no de-
sire on the part of any one
to make the lot of the felons
behind the walls of San
Quentin any harder or in
crease the odium in which
society in general holds its
inmates. The State of Cal
ifornia in its wisdom has
adjusted the problem of con-
vict labor possibly to suit
a majority of the people at
present. But the felon is
not the sufferer from such
tactics as those adopted by
Mr.. Hearst.
The workingmen, the
labor unions and the busi-
ness interests of the State
surely expect from the Ea-
that it at least be
honest in principle. The
people, to whom this dis
reputable journal appeals
for support, expect at least

BOARD OF HEALTH'S
INVESTIGATION
CONDENSED MILKS
AND CREAMS.
AN ITEM OF INTEREST
TO MOTHERS.

1t has been disclosed by the in
vestigation of DR.. Wenzell, the
Chemist of the Board of Health,
that the so-called evaporated creams
are nothing but pure and simple
condensed milk, and in many in
stances very poor condensed milk
at that, and while little or nothing
can be said in favor of these
evaporated creams by DR.. Wenzell,
still less is said in favor of most
brands of condensed milk, which
suffer equally under his searching
analysis.
Amid all this investiga-
tion and hue-and-cry one
prominent fact has been
brought out with unusual
distinctness, and that is,
the Gail Borden EAGLE
Brand of Condensed Milk
has passed through the
fiery furnace of inveStiga-
tion of most searching
character, with its usual
great success.
Every brand, except the Gah
Borden Eagle Brand, that has come
under the attention of the chemist
has had more or less criticism be-
slowed upon it, but the Gail Bor-
den Eagle Brand has been found to
be without single flaw, and has
been pronounced to be the purest
and the richest in quality of any
brand on the market; superior to
evaporated creams in richness;
stronger than any milk now before
the public.
The Pure Food Investi-
CATION bids fair to be a
most searching one, and
the public have a great
interest at stake, and it is
with pleasure that we re-
fer now to one brand that
seems to have met with
the approval of all.
