PROTECT OUR FOOD.

The doctors inform us that alum IS poison, and that alum baking powders should be avoided because they make the food unwholesOme. Prominent hysienists, who have given the matter most study. regard these powders as an evil that should be suppressed by state action In Minnesota and Wis consin alum powders are not permit ted to be sold unless they are branded to warn consumers of their trUe char acter, while in the District Of Colum- bia the authorities have under the d. rection of congress, adopted regula- tions to prohibit the use of alum ln bread altogether.
 Are not the people of other states, as well as these Of Minnesota and WIS consin. entitled to warning of dan ger which is apparently menaclnS them at>clOse hand, and is not tle whole country entitled to absolute protection, as the people Of the Dls- trict Of Columbia are protected, by legislation which is entirely prohlDlt- i've?
 Until we can have protection ln the form of a statute, how can our state boards of health, state analysts or food commissions better serve the pubic than by publishing in the newspapers from time to time the names Of the baking powders which they find to be made from alum?
 Meantime. it vii, aid the housewife in designating the alum powders to remember that all powders sold at 70 cents CT less are Of this dangerous class. Pure cream of tartar powders are usually sold at from fOrty-fiYe to fiftV cents l EOund.

GOV. MURpHY'S RETURN
The Work Done at inc Trans-rliSS.
 iSSippi Congress-.

Governor N. o. Murphy returned last night from Wichita, Kan, where he went to attend the meeting of the rans-Mississippi congress. The gov ernOr's object was crowned with sue cess if the national congress shall act favOrably upon the recommendations of the trans-M Mississippi congress. There were two things the governor especially desired incorporated in the resolutions, recommendations of state heed and the cession of the arid lands to the states and territories in which they lie. He believed that that was the only way in which the national government could or would assist ill the reclamation of arid lands. On ac- count Of objections in the east it was hardly probable that direct aid could be extended for the building of res erVoirs
 The Mississippi congress was divided on this subject A strong party representing the national irriga- ton congress favored direct federal aid. The other party advocating the cession Of the arid lands was headed by Governor Murphy and succeeded in securing the adoption of the resolu- tions, though there was also a resolu- ton favOring governmental aid.

The con tract for renting the hack to the city was verbal and so far as the council, Nnlcn QdC EOI D6tn d petL ly CO u, NONtiN ascertain, it was indefinite, and some objection was raised that the rental claim was exhorbitant. MT. Sturges said that he had never offered to sell the hack for less than $225 and not until after he had rented the hack, did lie realize it would ever after be worthless to him. He added that rcw hack costs not less than $1,O00; that a hack never wears out, but by adding an occasional $1O0 it can be built over again.

THE SANTA RITA DEAL
w. H. Bulraae Who Engineered it
 Speaks of if.

w. H. Burrage, a representative oI the Amalgamated Copper company and a cousin of A. c. Burrage, a mem Der of the advisory board of that com- pany, was at the Ford yesterday and left last night for the Santa Rita mines in New Mexico. MT. Burrage made the report on that property to the Amalgamated Copper company on the strength of which the recent $1,20O,O00 deal was made. He said yes terday that the deal was spot cash and that an additional sum of SZOO,- 900 was paid into the Hearst estate of San Francisco fer an option held on the Santa Rita. The original purchase consisted of seventy-Seyen claims, but extensions have been bought since The property contains an immense, though cratic deposit of native cop per ore It is a high grade proposi- tiOn and the ore compares faVorably with that of the lake mines. It will be operated at small cost, MT. Burrage advising that it be reduced in con- centrating plant. The Romero claim of this group has about one mile Of underground work.
 
 the purchase was made by the Anal gamated Copper company, MT. Bur rage says the announcements have been ill advised. Although the trans fer was made to Richard Willard, he says the purchase was really made for A. c. Burrage and is still his prop erty, unless 1t has since been trans ferred to the company without the knowledge of MT. w. H. Burrage.
 In working the property probably $1 ,00O, ,000 will be expended before any money is realized. The report that 2,00O men will be employed is discred- ited by MT. Burrage. Undoubtedly q large number of men will be on the pay roll, but he said he did not see how so large a force could be worked to advantage. The Santa Rita group was operated by Spaniards for many years.
 In regard to the Amalgamated Cop per company, MT Burrage says many erroneous reports have been made He was in Boston at the time the com pany incorporated. The people were eXpectant and he remembers that one day the street was packed with people waiting to see a bulletin issued by a Boston newspaper regarding the cOn- bine. They expected to find out that a $500,000000 company was organized and since many reports have been made that the company was capital ized at S450,000, 900. MT. Burrage says that much stock Twas subscribed, but the company capitalized at $75, 100000. He does net believe the purpose in combining was to control the copper markets. The owners of the Anaccnda, Parrott and Washoe nninac and aIzo ftO10r2Tl0 Sr0olfinG company were involved in litigation

Ordinarily judgment for less than, $20 is not ap- pealable in this territory, though the defense Concl-ded that in this ca-e law points were involved which could not be disposed of in a justices court and that there was no way to arrive at the settlement of them than by appeal to the highest courts.

HORSE THIEVES CAUGHT
Sheriff Murray Lands the Boca
 Brothers in Jail.

Sheriff Murray and Deputy Sheriff Billy Moore returned on Sunday night with Rudolfo and Emilio Boca wanted for stealing five horses from John Miller near Fort McDcwell last Feb ruary. There were five of the horse thieves, but the other three are nov. in jail at Rolbrook charged with other offense. The Bocas had not been arrested The sheriff having located thelm in a wild neighborhoCd near the MogCllons, hired a guide and went after them. It was predicted that he and Deputy Moore would lave a warm time making a capture. They found one of the Bocas at one place and having secured him they went to a house where they knew the other one was Instead of waiting for him to come out, or sending for him, they went in suddenly. Boca had a gun strapped on him, but he made no eff fort to use it. Instead, he hurriedly anbuckled his belt and handed gun and all to another man. The officers brought back with them a distant relative of the BOcas as a witness against them. He would be handi- capped as a fugitive from justice by a prominent distinguishing mark. It is a little crCss an inch by three quarters, tattooed on his forehead.
 The defendants asked for a cOntin- nation Of their hearing for ten days that they might have time to get wit nesses to swear to their innocence.
