operations for advancing prices are act

raised the price of coal two dollars
making the price SO a ton. This
action has been taken, it is said, 10
discourage buying. The dealers have
twice advanced the price of coal Tor
this purpose, but as the prospect OF an
immediate settlement of the strike
grows DINNER, there has been more
buying until the dealers have been
obliged to make another attempt 10
check it. There are now only ABOUT
$500 tons of anthracite coal in all the
pockets in Portland, and the dealers
as far as possible will sell only to those
in immediate need.

1.-THE Fitting Climax"

Writing of Augustus greeting to
President Roosevelt Mr.. a. Maurice
Low. the distinguished Washington
correspondent of the Boston Globe de-
clares il "the fitting climax of the
day." He describes the scenes attend
ing the Presidents drive to Governor
Hili's residence from the station, ana
his mastery address to the thousands
of people awaiting him at that point
in the following language:
"The progress from the depot to the
Governors house was blaze of red
fire and roman candles and sky
rockets and the cheers of the crowd.
State street was black with human
ity. The President spoke from a stand
erected on the lawn of the house, and
the effect as one looked from the lawn
was almost theatrical.
Strings of Chinese lanterns formed
three sides of square, the fourth side
being the Governors house. The street
was solid wall of men and women.
smoke from the red fire half obscured
the trees and gave them the appear
ance of delicate tracery, while Still
farther up the street the grounds Of
the Capitol were veritable blaze of
color.
For dramatic effect the meeting
was unequaled, and it was quite in
keeping with the surroundings that the
speech should have struck a loftier
tone than any heretofore. 1t might
have well been entitled True Amers-
canism."

roof-tree which Blaine made famous.
facing the men and women wGO knew
Blaine so well and to whom the name
and memory of Blaine are held in
peculiar reverence, on ground that
Blaine's feet had so often trod, it was
only natural that the President should
have found in the name and works of
Blaine the inspiration for his theme.
For the first time he mentioned the
Monroe doctrine. and tae duties it i'm
posed on the United States. and that of
course led to the Philippines. The
speech was received with great atten-
ton and the most enthusiastic APP
plause."

Adulteration of Food.

The Portuguese people are Mortified
at the discovery that clay and saw
dust have been used to adulterate the
flour sold in their country. 1t is a
satisfaction to know, however. that
none of this flour was imported from
this country. There have been many
forms of food adulteration in the
United States; but our sugar, flour and
meat products have been singularly
free from suspicion of this character.
At the same time there has been Il
tendency to treat this question with
an indifference wholly out of proper
ton to its Importance. We have al
ways felt that this might we'll be a
matter for Federal supervision. The
man who steals an unearned profit,
by selling food product that is other
than il purports to be is as much of
the man who picks a pocket. 1t is
nevertheless a fact that food adulter-
alton is practiced in this country to
an alarming extent. This Is specially
true of commercial jellies and jams,
large part of which are made from
the parrings and cores left over in the
canning of gallon apples. There is lots
of strawberry jam" on the market.

Jelly in large quantities is sold
