Of milk is none too good, Poor milk
therefore is decidedly poor and cases
are far from infrequent where It is
found to be considerably below the
standard.
The regulations require that milk
shall show 1880 of solids. In five tests
made yesterday only two came up to
the standard. The markings were:
1904, 1928, ll.9S, 1857, 1859. The fact
that the milk is naturally thin at this
time, coupled with the fact that some
milkmen are wont to put the ice on
the inside Of the can accounts for the

DISPENSAKN FIGHTS
The War Begun Between the Factions
atCharlOtte aDdGreensbOrO-Argu
the Antitrust Bill
Especial to The Messenger.)

Especial to The Messenger)
Raleigh, N. c., February 22.-The
house committee this afternoon heard
argument on the senate bill to establish
a dispensary at Greensboro. The prin-
cipal argument was made by Messrs.
Moses Cone and r. r. King against
the bill, and by Mr.. A. NJ. Scales for
it. Mr.. Scales came out far ahead and
was literally applauded, as represent
ing a majority Of the white voters. The
committee decided unanimously to re-
port the bill favorably. Many Char
lotte people were present.
1t is said tonight that Senator Os-
borne will stand out strongly in the
fight against Charlotte. 1t is said
Charlotte politics will be dragged into
the matter.
There was a discussion Of the Stew
ems antitrust bill before the senate
committee. G. w. Hinshaw, Of Wins
ton; j. H. Pou, of Raleigh, and ]. C.
Stevenson, of Wilmington, argued
against the bill. Their main argument
was that there is not a single trust in
North Carolina and that outside trusts
benefit North Carolina because COM
mission merchants, acting for trusts
keep goods at low prices.
The impression is that the senate will
strike out section 5, Of the bill, which
provides that person who buys from
trust cannot be legally held liable
for payment of the goods. The bill
comes up again Friday, when Mr.. Ste
vens will appear before the commit
tee.
The senate judiciary committee de-
cides to report unfavorably the bill to
pay to the estate Of the late David L.
Swain, president Of the state univer-
sity, $4,000 borrowed money.
