OLEO MEN FIGHT.
Manufacturers Challenge the New
Minnesota Law.

Manufacturers Challenge the New
Minnesota Law.
The first case under the Minnesota law,
prohibiting the coloring of o,eomargarine
so as to resemble butter was taken up
yesterday in the municipal court before
Judge Holt. The complainant in the case
is the Minnesota state dairy and food
commission. The defendant is the Ham
mcnd Packing company, of Chicago The
case is most important III that it involves
the rights of oleomargarine manufacture
ers to virtually counterfeit butter and
thus enter into an active competition with
the creameries.
Originally the Minnesota law required
makers of oleo to color their product
pink, but this restriction was declared
unconstitutional by the supreme court of
the United States. Then the legislature,
at its last session, passed the present
law, prohibiting the colOring of oleo so
as to resemble butter. The natural prod
uct is almost white, and the Minnesota
solons thought this prohibition would do
away with the sale of the product How
ever, the makers of Oleomargarine are
again determined to fight the law to the
last, and in the event of a defeat in the
lower courts the question Will again be
carried to the supreme court for final set
Element.
Evidence introduced yesterday showed
that the company had sold oleomargarine
which was colored yellow, or, in the Ian
guage of the trade, colored the standard
butter color" Several samples of the
imitation butter were. made exhibits in
the case.
The defense, however, showed that bur
ter was itself frequently given false
color, and raised the contention that, be-
ing an imitation, it could not be itself
counterfeited in the legal sense of the
term For the defense w. N. Irish, sec
rotary and treasury of the Crescent
Creamery company, testified that his con-
Germ always colored it's butter, and swore
that the amount of coloring used was
sixteen ounces to each 200 pounds.
The case was finally continued until
Monday morning to permit the introduce
ton of additional evidence.

CLEMENTS SEEKS BAIL.
The Preston Man VIII Have to Put
Up a Large Surety.

PRESTON, Mimi, July IA special
term of the district court is being held
here this week. The most important case
tried was the Hurning divorce case from
Olmsted county, wherein Mrs. Hurning
sues for $4,000 alimony.
Last evening J. R, Clements, was
brought into court with the expectation
of being admitted to small bail. At
torney Losey, of La Crosse, and Weber
of Winona, were here. in Clements be-
half. They maintained small bail would
assure his presence at the next term
of court, but the court put his bail at
$4,000. It is thought he will be unable
to raise this amount of bail, and will have
to remain here in Jail until the next
November term Of court.

readily consented to aid Mr.. Skoog. Ac-

THOUSANDS IN THE TENTS

Rev. George E. sOper, of ST. Paul,
Among Those Who Led in Work

Delivered by President John
Henry BarrOws, of Oberlin Col
1eEe-Dispute as to Attendance.
DETROIT, Mich, July 1.-THE mooted
question of the number of people brought
into Detroit by the Christian Endeavor
convention cropped out at the outset Of
tcnight's meeting in tent Endeavor, when
Secretary Baer took occasion to publicly
criticise the Detroit newspapers for say
ing that the influx of delegates from
other states was not nearly as great as
had been anticipated in the local COM
nittee's estimates. Mr.. Baer said he had
no statement yet to make about the at
tendance as compared with other years.
He promised to make one later, but he
called on all Endeavorers present to rise.
A large majority of those present stood
I'D, which Mr.. Baer assumed to be proof
of his view of the attendance question.
The newspapers estimate of total visit
ors is 20, 600 in round numbers. Mr.. Baer
denied that anybody connected with c.
E. committees had ever told Detroit
people that they had reason to expect
so 900 Endeavorers. AT all events the sec
rotary insisted that the c. E. tents had
never before been so crowded and over
flowed at every one of the main meet
ings.
Bishop B. w. Arnett (coloreO presided
over tent Endeavor meeting. Rev. DR..
Quayle, of Indianapolis, one of the speak
ers on the evening programme, was an
nounced to have been called to Kansas
t. the bedside Of his dying father. Silent
prayer was offered in behalf of DR..
Quayle.
The devotional exercises were led by
r. R. Patterson, of San Francisco; the
moments of meditation and prayer by
Rev. George E. Soper, of st. Paul.
The address of the evening was by Pres
ident John Henry Barrows, of Oberlin
college. During its delivery the rain
again descended, increasing until the
noise on the roof almost drowned the
sound of DR.. Barrow's voice and he was
compelled to desist. Umbrellas were rails
ed all over the tent, but comparatively
few left, and the crowd stayed and sang
song after song, overcoming all sounds
of the storm and all ideas of increasing
discomfort At length the rain ceased
long enough to allow DR.. Barrows to pro-
ceed

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF TICS, manufactured by the

the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
