Coal Tar Scents.

MANY perfumes owe their origin to
coal tar. Extract of neW-mown hay"
and other similar delicate perfumes are
obtained from a substance called GU
marin, which up to a few years ago
was extracted from sweet woodruff
and other scented grasses. 1t was dis
covered that cumarin could be OBJ
tanned by distillation of one of the
volatile oils of coal tar. White hello
trope is also made almost entirely of
coal tar, together with seven other
scents, generally known by the names
of the flowers they used to be extracted
from. The Island of Mauritius lost
much of it's scent industry through the
rivalry of coal tar scent Vanilla, one
of the most delicate products of coal, is
used by the gallon in making the eX-
tract Of vanilla, for iayoring cuStards
and buildings. Coal tar also gives us
that greatest boon of the man whose
doctor won't let him take sugar-name-
ly, saccharin. OF this substance, one
pound is equal to two hundredweight
of sugar, as far as SWeetening power
goes. 1t is quite wholesome, and is
into the bargain capital disinfectant.
Jam made with saccharin ought to
keep forever. Coal tar scents are by
no means cheap and nasty substitutes.
They are harmless-sometimes more
harmless than the original preparations
they have superseded. And, in spite
of the evil odor of coal tar, not one
workman has ever been made i'll by
dealing with it.

MILLIONS of dollars worth of

a method by which practically
every dollars worth of property in

burden OF supporting the state
government now rests, will rise up

Ir is foolish to swear-usually.
Swearing is bad habit and should

There is no occasion for 1t outside

THE LOCAL FRUIT GROWERS UNION

will make a great mistake II they do not
take the small amount of stock still re-

As The JOURNAL pointed out tc the
hop growers, union cannot be formed
20 handle the entire crop, good, bad and
Indifferent. A union composed Of the
growers of the best varieties, and Of per.
sons who would take a pride in putting
up gilt-edge pack will succeed
The fruit growers union has already
enlisted as stockholders the best straw
berry growers in this vicinity, with a
few still to come in. So with apple,
ch rry, ,and peach growers.
Its success will depend on hard fight
for high standard Of quality the first
year, The best growers must stand ur
for a reputation for excellence for the
Salem berry-aud we can easily excel in
every kind of berries-apd then the un-
ion will be an immense success.
The building of a reputation for su-
periority and an even excellence o
quality is what is making the Hood
River berry grower rich. 1t is making
our making our best creamery manager'
rich.
The organization Of the fruit growers
ought to be kept under the control Of the
best growers. II they delegate their Au
thority to handle the union to any bu
those who will aim for the highest re,
suit they will make a mistake.

SALEM. OREGON WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER II. 1901.

reabsorbed them not as Populists but as
Republicans eager to show sincere re-
pentance, the Democrats have gained
few indeed besides the leaders.
The Joneses and Stewards who have
returned to the Republican meeting
house are seated meekly and humbly on
the back bench in the corner iurthest
from the stove. The Populists and the
Populized Democrats are spread inn
pudently upon the best Democratic
pews; they irighten away those who
would like to enter; they swagger up
and down the aisles, roaring threats to
throw ont any Democrat of the old.
fashioned kind who ventures to try to
take part in the services.
OF course this cannot last The over.
whelming majority will sooner or later
recoveL the control. The congressional
caucus, with it's summary postponement
Of the "get-together" resolutions pro-
posed by Congressman Mcclellan and
it's smothering even by the New York
Democrats of the Fitzgerald sound
money resolution, shows how discourag-
ing the outlook is.
There must be a restoration of char
acter, the relegaton Of the wild-eyed
and wild-mouthed to the far, far rear,
distinct demonstration of worthines
of public confdence-a slow process
but the only one.
Opportunity clamors for an opposition
party. But opportunity will have non'
of Populsts disguised as Democrats anC
Democrats with weakness for Populisu
or weakness in principle.
