But Every Day or So Articles Are
Sent to State Health Board.

The last Legislature passed number
of pure food laws, but refused to pass bill
for the establishment of laboratory which
would aid the State Board of Health in
detecting any supposed authorizations. The
impression must have been received. how
ever. by the people generally throughout
the State that the laboratory had been pro-
vided. for there is hardly day passes that
some article of food is not sent to the

Substitute for Bulwer.Clayton
Treaty Formulated by the
Secretary
And Adopted by the British
Ambassador Without
Alteration.
Hint Given That 1t Must Stand
or Fall Substantially
as 1t Is.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Sit is learned
that the text Of the Hay -Pauncefote
treaty was the work Of the state depart.
ment. the British government accepted
the document just as il was drawn. SO
the responsibility for whatever is con.
taincd in the treaty and the form in
which 1t is expressed is chargeable en-.
tirely TO the department. Department
officials are surprised at the amount of
criticism that has been directed against
the treaty but feel confident that it will
be consummated. providing it is not
amended, especially as to the fortifica.
ton clause. 1t is insisted by the of.
ficinls that an amendment on that
point would completely defeat the
treaty, and it is intimated that the OBJ.
lection will bc two-fold. first from the
British government. and second, from
the president himself. The president is
said 10 regard the naturalization scheme
as completely obviating the necessity for
any Notifications for the canal, for, by
the terms Of that arrangement. every
one OF the maritime powers will pledge
itself to use its army and navy. if need
bc. to preserve the absolute neutrality Y
Of the canal and Notifications will bc
unnecessary.
Attention has been called TO the state.
mcnt that ~ matter what differences Il
opinion may have existed up 10 thu-
time as Ia the living force of the Clay
ton Bulwcr treaty. all doubt upon that
point has been dis>ipated by the sigma
ture Of the Hay Paunurfote convention

I United States government; formally r.c
| ognized the existence Of n Clayton Bul
