SENATORALLENSSENSATlON
DENOUNCES ADVOCATES OF THE
OLEOMARGARINE BILL.
RathbOne Gardner Again Appears Be-
fore the Senate Committee
on Agriculture.

When the Senate committee on agricul-
ture today resumed it's hearing upon the
Grout oleomargarine bill Senator Allen OF
Nebraska, a member of the committee,
made a pointed and sensational statement
concerning his position as to the measure.
He never had announced, he said, whether
he was in favor of or opposed to the pend
ing measure, but by reason of some ques-
tions he had asked yesterday it had been
supposed "by the lobbyists present that
he would antagonize the measure Since
the hearing of yesterday he had been flood
ed with kilograms urging him to support
the bill. The conclusion was obvious
With some vigor. he said: Il want to
enter my protest against this cheap John,
peanut political method l have no words
to express my utter contempt for this
method and for those who would engage in
it The lobbyists who supporting this
bill are doing it more injury than its open
and avowed opponents.
Mr.. Allen declared that if such methods
were continued he would ask that the hear
ings be private. In conclusion he said: Il
want again to denounce in the severest
language l am capable of using the sneak
Ing and cowardly method that has been
pursued in respect to this measure.
Rathbone Gardner of Providence, repre-
senting the manufacturers of oleomargar-
inc. continued his argument begun yester-
day in opposition to the pending bill. In
the course of his argument he mentioned
process butter In response to an in
quiry one of his clients explained what
process butter was. He declared, in the
course of his explanation, that the process
butter was washed with sulphuric acid
to remove the rancidity.
Governor Hoard of Wisconsin, with some
feeling, combatted the statement, main
tanning that no occasion whatever existed
for it's treatment with acid. He demanded
the name of even single process factory
where the product was washed with acid,
but his opponent declined to mention
names.
Discussing the coloring Of oleomargarine,
the natural color of which was nearly
white. Mr.. Gardner said the oleomargarine
manufacturer used anato
That likewise used the coloring
matter for creamery butter. 1t was, he
said, in no sense deleterous substance.
Coloring matter was employed merely to
meet the demands of the people, that the
eye might aid the palate"
Concluding his argument Mr.. Gardner de-
ciared that the purpose of the advocates
OF the Grout bill was not to regulate the
oieomargarine industry, but to destroy it.
That" said he, lis evidently the result
the advocates of the measure propose to
achieve
