those of black velvet, which require no 9TH

PURE FOOD LEGISLATION.

Agitation for national pure food
law has been going on with more or
less vigor for years. There is an as
sociation to promote such legislation
and the subject has frequently been
discussed in congress. At the last ses-
sion a senate special committee was ap-
pointed to investigate alleged food
authorizations and its inquiries elected
some interesting information, though it
failed to show that food adulteratlon
Is so extensively practiced or is of so
harmful character as is commonly
supposed. There is good deal of it
done, but while it is fraud upon the
public 1t is for the most part not in.
furious to health.
The chief chemist of the Department
of Agriculture, DR.. Wiley, favors the
enactment by congress of a law that
will protect consumers against the
authorizations not only of foods of do
nestle production, but also against the
importation of adulterated foodstuffs.
He says that while there Is little or no
adulteration of staple articles of food,
still we must not shut our eyes to the
fact that there are some authorizations,
nor lose sight of the necessity for
wholesome legislation on the subject.
II believe In n pure food law" he Is
quoted as saying, "but not in pro-
hibitiye law. Let the man who wants
oleomargarine have it, but don't palm
1t off on the man who wants butter. If
n man wants glucose and corn starch,
let him have 1t, but not I'm the guise of
something else" There Is nothing un-
reasonable in this. 1t involves no un'
Just discrimination against any inter
est, hut simply the proper protection
of consumers against fraud Yet every
attempt to secure such legislation has
encountered determined opposition
from the manufacturers of articles used
for adplteration and from those who
use such articles. The oleomargarine
law and the act requiring that mixed
-four he labeled were vigorously OPP
posed by the interests concerned. These
interests, however, have not suffered
from this legislation. 81

may be as TO the duty of the general
government TO legislate against the
adulteration of food of domestic produc-
ton, there ought TO be no difference OF

THE ASIATIC TRADE,

I'm asking European governments
for assurances that there shall be no
discrimination against the commercial
interests of the United States in Chi
nese territory under their control and
that our treaty rights there will be
respected, it is not contemplated nor
is it necessary to depart from our do
mestic policy of protecting the home
market in the interest of American
manufacturers and producers. We are
unable to see any force in the argu-
ment that because we ask an "Open
door" to trade in China-that is, equal
opportunity and privilege with other
countries for commercial intercourse
with that empire-we should abandon
our own economic policy or radically
modify it. The governments which the
United States has asked to give deli
mite assurance that its rights and in
terests in China will be respected are
not called upon to- make any change In
their domestic tariff policies and do
not contemplate, doing So, China is
common field for the commercial enter
prise of all nations and this country
simply seeks a fair chance there, to
which it is entitled by treaty, in COM
petition with commercial rivals
American free traders assert that il
we maintain our tariff policy we mega
tive our request for open doors at the
ports of other nations, but this can
hardly be so while those nations adj
here to their protective tariffs. More
over, what we ask in China will be
mutually beneficial. If Russia, Ger
many and France maintain the open
door in China each will derive advan-
tage from it in the territory of the
others. Instead of being confined to
their own possessions they will have
equal opportunities in all. The open
door, therefore, means a wider field to
all countries for the commercial ex-
poitatlon of China, an unrestricted
competition in which. success will be
measured by enterprise and the ability
market. 1t will undoubtedly be found
expedient in the future to modify our
tariff system, but this Is not required
by the policy we ask other nations to
observe in regard to China. The sacri
flee that would be involved in present
departure from our domestic policy
could not be compensated for by any
benefits to be derived from the Asiatic
trade
