and crafty as she has started. From
the proceedings of the council, to be
found elsewhere in this paper. it will
be seen that Mr. Armstrong; request
that the city accept no more money
from the saloon men. has been granted,
and that che council has suspended the
hop tea" ordinance.
It will also be seen that the council
has likewise suspended all street WORK;
cut off the night watch without even
the proverbial shilling; and douced the
glimmer Of the electric street lights,
all because of lack of funds to pay for
same.
The council is right in curtailing ex-
penses rather than to run the city in
debt. They know how much money
the city has on hand, and how much
she will receive from taxes, and if the
city script is kept at par-as it should
be, and has been for number ofoyears
they must not contract for more
than they can pay.
In the meantime the saloon men
who say MIR. Armstrong was NOT
authorized to speak for them (although
he told the council he was their friend
are continuing in business just the
same.

Adulterased Food Products.

1t is known fact that adulterated
food products are being sold and con-
sumed every day throughout Kansas.
This ought not to be. Still it is true to
an alarming extent, and it is time an
effort should be put forth to stop the
sale OF adulterated food products within
the borders or our State, Every citi-
zen who has the welfare of his or her
person at stake should take a firm, bold
and aggressive stand against all such
nefarious business transactions, and
should set their seal of condemnation
upon every merchant who will knowingly
offer for sale any food products con.
tanning adulteration. for the merchant
is in a position to know whether the
goods which he offers to his customers
contain adulterants or not; hence, he
should be delt with accordingly.
All adulterated food products should
be debarred from sale in Kansas, and
it is pleasure to note that our people
are beginning to realize the urgent nee
essity for immediate action along this
line.
The members of the State Dairy AS
ISOLATION, at their recent annual meet
ing, held in Topeka, have started the
''ball rolling by appointing COM
mittee whose duty it is to help secure
such legislation as will remedy the evil
and put stop to the sale of adultera-
ted food products of our state.
Every reader of this article can be of
material help to the above committee
by petitioning their member of the state
senate and house of representatives to
enact such laws as will protect the con-
sumner against substitutes, in the form
of adulturants. detrimental to the sale
| and consumption or pure food products.
All those in favor of pure food pro-
, duct legislation can further manifest
their approval by writing postal card
to Mr.. ]. E. Nissley,p care Kansas
Creamery Co., Topeka. Kansas. who
is secretary of the legislative committee
appointed by the Dairy Association.
They will consider it favor to have all
the support possible,

Wilmington probably will be added to
this squadron, as will the Bancroft,
now on their way across the Atlantic
for Fortress Monroe. An official order
was issued Friday detaching Capt
Chester, commander of the Cincinnati,
from the South Atlantic squadron, and
leaving him in command of the Cincin-
natl. The effect of this is to re-
move the Cincinnati from the South
Atlantic service, and makes her
available for the North Atlantic
station, where her speed would make
her valuable adjunct to the quick
manouvers of flying squadron. Com
modore Schley's orders in terms make
him commander of distinct squadron,
SO that the ships at Hampton Roads
will be entirely apart from the North
Atlantic squadron, of which Capt.
Sampson is in command This is an
unusual expedient, as the North At
lantic vessels always heretofore have
been intact.
WASHINGTON, March &C. Men speak

speech and solmnity. The country is
on the very verge of war now, for the
first time, seems to fully realize it.

over the spirit of the nations capital
For the past two days the president
has been summoning before him the
great men and true hearted of senate
and house, whether republican or
democrat, or populist, and has been
un bOssoming himself 10 them as though
he knew in this critical hour that he
could call them al brothers He has
told them his hopes. He has told them
his fears. His frankness has had
magical influence.
