A GENERAL bill to consolidate the
Office of jailer with that of sheriff
throughout the State will be con-
sidered by the General Assembly.
1t perhaps has sufficient merit 20
deserve enactment, as it doesn't 60
into operation until the expiration
of the present jailers' terms. The
injustice of abolishing an office
and throwing out the officer after
he has been to the expense and
trouble of securing his election is
too manifest to need any argument
against it.

Weatherford Salary Reduction bill
to 60 into effect in 1900. No sala-
ries can nor sho I'D be reduced dur

of questionable or positively delet-
erious effect on the human system;
'olives," that grew originally on
plum trees; tea that is composed of
divers and sundry substances. some
times copper and other poisonous
coloring matter: all are To be met
with IN all grocery markets and are
largely bought and consumed by
the unwary. In truth, but few Of
the aduIteranis and sophistications
mentioned are injurious To those
who consume them, but they are
frauds and dcccits aud cause both
packet books and culinary skill
TO suffer, as well as cheat the pal
ates of the consumers.
Wines have long been IA favoritr
article of artificial production, and
the culnred drrOctions, favored
and alcoholizcd, that have been
drunk under the belief that they
were originally the juice of the
grape are beyond computation.
Since California has come to the
front as IA producer Of pure native
grape wines that class of goods has
become too cheap to tempt the pro
duction of near 80 much of the vii
famous compounds sold ns "wines. "
On account of the high revenue
tax on distilled liquors the recti-
fier's art 1ouIishes as of old or
more so. But little apple or peach
brandy that leaves its rural birth
place for the city wholesalers ever
comes away with its innocence
and purity unmolestcd. 1t is gen
orally doubled or trebled in bulk by
the cheap cologne. or neutral, spir-
its. Fine" whiskies are produced
with "A blend of little fine whisky
and essences with cologne spirits
Gin is largely diluted alcohol flavor
ed with gin. And so on throughout
the category of liquors. Much OF
the rectifying produces compare
lively harmless compounds, but i,
cheats the consumers sense of
taste: some puts on the market
cheap and thoroughly vile mixtures
that are truly AN enemy taken into
the stomach To steal away both
brains and health. On the latter
account il is debatahle whether the
rectiiler's art shouldn't he prohlb,
tied or at least most rigidly circum-
scribed.
1t is in drugs and medicines that
the most reprehensible examples of
the sophisticator's art are found.
At best the use of medicines is liza
BILE TO abuse. The physicians art
itself is largely empirical. That
any one connected with the phar-
macist's profession directly or in
directly should knowingly supply
anything but drugs. chemicals and
medicines of standard purity and
genuineness is deeply and most
dangerously criminal, because
thereby an art that is largely ex-
perimental with drugs of known
usual effect becomes blindly
hazardous one with stuff whose ef-
feet because of impurity can not be
relied upon with any reasonable
assurance.

THE House of Congress, by a
majority of 1873, voted for the dis
tribution of $I30,O00's worth of
free seeds. Politicians will not, as

such an electioneering snap for
their own exclusive benefit. The
House also voted for the printing
of Sl05, ,000's worth of the book on
horses for free distribution. These

called Democrats as by the most
avowed paternalists. Yet they will

Those qualifications the ordinary
grocer does not possess. Therefore
his reliance for pure goods must
rest upon those from whom lie pur-
chases.
Ii is very probable that the bulk
Of the ground spices and cream of
tartar bought of grocers Is more or
less adulterated. The consumers
are largely TO blame for that. Not
understanding that the pungent
and aromatic powders will bear a
large admixture of inert matter
before the sophistication will re-
veal itself by the senses of smell
and taste, they conclude that "all
ground spices look alike to them"
and also smell and taste true to
species, and they buy the cheapest
in price AS a bargain. In reality
they pay a much higher price for
the proportion of the real article in
the mixture than they would have
to pay for the genuine and unadul-
terated article, and, besides, the
flavor of their food in which il is
used is impaired to a greater or
less degree. Cream Of tartar is a
fsvorite for adulteration. That kind
used by druggists is the sort house.
holders really want and should buy,
but there is a trade distinction one
sort being sold as grocers' cream of
tartar, which is simply the drug
gists' article (crystals or bitartrate
of potassium) powdered and mixed
with an equal or much larger bulk
of some white starchy matter. Some
grocers sell both the pure ground
spices and genuine cream of tartar
in manufacturers packages with a
guarantee of purity and also the
ordinary more or less mixed bulk
goods. The genuine is cheapest at
its price by far.
Among the common sophisticated
food articles sold hy grocers may
he mentioned filled" cheese, that
il part cheese and part fats of va
rious sorts that weSe never derived
from milkI"apple" vinegar and
"crRo cider that derive no more
thss. their flavor. if that. from the
apple;'honey," that is perfectly in,
nocent of any connection with the
crime of u robbery of bees; sugar
and syrup that are paraded as the
boiled down sap Of the maple, but
which really never witnessed any
of the rural romance and delights
of suaar-camp; syrups and mo-
lasses whose succharine principle
was never made by the vital pro-
cesses OF sugar cane, but was pro-
duced from starchy matter nv the
chemistry of glucose factory:
"lard." that is the emulsified oil of
the lowly cottonsesd; "jellics," that
derive their name and flavor from
natural fruits, but their substance
from the skins of bovlnes; baking
powders that are wholesome, but
are expanded IN weight and bulk
beyond reason by starchy sub
stances; baking powders that are
sometimes composed Of chemicals

By vote of 73 to 20 the Ohio
Legislature elected Marcus A. Han
ma u. S. Senator for the long and
the short terms, or until March
1905. The fight waged against him
by members of his own party was
not without abundant cause as po.
litlcal revenges go. He defeated
Charles l.. Kurtz. friend of Senator
Foraker and Gov. Bushnell, for
State Chairman last June. Kurtz
had long been party campaign
leader. So Kurtz led the fight to
defeat Hanna and nearly succeed
ed in accomplishing it. The oppo-
sing candidate, Mckisson, received
20 votes; one vote was cast for
Lentz, and one mem Der was absent.
The factional fight has caused such
bitterness that the Republican par
ty in Ohio will be torn by dissen-
sions for long time.
