National Pure Food Law.

The bill lately presented in the house
of representatives by Mr.. Mann of ILL
noas AID to be pushed in the senate by
Senator Cullom gives promise of
substantial and effective movement in
behalf of pure food legislation. 1t is
regarded as the strongest pure food
measure ever proposed.
1t is the outcome of a great deal of
quiet work begun by the Retail Gro
GERS association of Chicago and finally
taken up by the National Association
of Retail Grocers. 1t strikes right at
the root of the adulteration evil by
placing responsibility directly upon the
man who puts up impure goods. 1t
does not seek the ruin of the retailer
who innocently buys and sells them
Another strong feature of this meas
ure is that it places as a protective
agency, in conjunction with state
boards of health and pure food com
missions. national bureau with power
over impure goods manufactured in
any state and shipped elsewhere,
The need of such a national measure
is shown by the support the proposed
bill is receiving from the leading re
tailers and wholesalers of the country
They seem TO be a unit in declaring
that the state laws for detecting ant
Furnishing authorizations in foods have
proved inadequate and that the onl.
successful course to pursue is to pun
ish the persons responsible for maxim,
the impure foods.

which we're completed recently at
the Bremerton navy yard, on Puget
sound. On June 20, 1900, the Oregon
ran on an uncharted rock in the
gulf of Pe-Chi-Li, fifty miles north of
Cheefoo, China. A large jagged hole
was torn in her bottom For tempo
rary repairs she was sent to Japan
where a patch 40 feet long was put
in place. Then the Oregon crossed
lie Pacific to Puget sound, and there
was examined by naval experts, both
public and private. The private ex-
perts reported unanimously that the
conformation of the Oregon was such
that she could not we'll be repaired
in the government dock at Bremen
ton, and further they reported that
to make the necessary repairs it
would be necessary to remove the
forward turret and the two 13-inch
guns-a very costly operation. The
government experts thought this was
not necessary. They also reported
that the work could be done at the
Bremerton dock. The government
took the chance, and four months
ago the repairs by government en-
ployes in a government yard began.
The results have been entirely sat
isfactorye Without removing turret
or guns, the Oregon was locked, and
practically an entire new bottom was
put on her. While this work was be-
ing done the vessel was improved by
the addition of new docking keel
on each side. The Oregon comes
out even finer and better ship than
even a finer and better ship than
when she made her splendid run

fabulous sum has been saved to the
government by the Bremerton yard
but the demonstration of the capa,
bflities of a government dock and
yard in work of this character is
worth even more than that sum to
the navy department. Anaconda

An Exploded Theory.

Labor organizations throughout the
country are petitioning congress to
have vessels of war built at govern
ment dock yards, and to have govern
ment drydocks put to their legitimate
use in the repair of vessels. That pc
lions are necessary to put such a sys-
tenn into force is news to large por-
ton of the public, but it is not the
less a fact. Under the present sys-
tenn, government vessels are built by
private contract to the immense
profit of the contractor, while large
amount of repair work is done at
private yards by contract, the gov.
eminent yards and drydocks standing
idle in the meantime. Supporters OF
the existing system contend that pri
vate yards can do work better and
cheaper than the government yards.
The lack of truth in this conten
ton is shown by the incident of the
famous battleship Oregon, repairs on

MRS. CIRCUITS RECORD.
Woman Who Killed Her Husband
Has Past

FIdS d aSCs
Great Falls, March 10.-Mrs. Lor-
eta circuit, who killed her husband
at Billings, is believed to have been
resident of Great Falls for few
months last fall, being the wife of
Julian Gendreau, refiner at the B. &
M. Shelters. He made her acquaint-
ance through a matrimonial paper.
She was then a resident of Living
ston. She reported that she had val
liable property at Kalispell, Salt
Lake and Telluride, Col, but soon
after they were married she grew
angry because Gendreau would not
deed his property to her. They quar-
relied and she accused him of beating
her and left him. He has Instituted
proceeding for divorce, and his at
torney recently learned that she was
living with Orcutt at Billings.
When She married Gendreau, she
gave her residence at Pontiac, , ILL.,
ard the attorney for Gendreau says h,
has proof that she had been married
several times to men from whom
she had not been divorced

Making Slow Progress.

Senator Nelson's bill for the creation
of a department of commerce and in
dustry does not seem to be making as
rapid progress in congress as it's sup
porters had hoped, and if it does pass
it will not contain all the bureaus as
signed to it in the original draft of the
measure.
An amendment leaving the geological
survey, as at present, with the interior
department has been adopted. 1t is
probable that other amendments fur
Their reducing the scope of the propos-
ed new department will follow.
An amendment has been proposed
providing that the coast survey. now
under the treasury department, shall
be transferred to the navy department
instead of the department of com
merce. This will reopen a controversy
which was actively carried on before
the civil war. 1t was contended ther
with much force that the survey OF
the coasts belonged with even greatel
fitness to the navy department thai
did the survey of the lakes, of which
the latter has always had charge. Nov
that it is proposed to take the coas
survey from the treasury department
the navy department is ready to pu
in its claim. Thus the outlook for Sen
ator Nelson's bill. at least in its entire
ty, is not especially encouraging.

MOTION DENIED.
Attorneys Ask for New Trial, But
Are Refused.

Attorneys Ask for New Trial, But
Are Refused.
w. N Noffsinger and w. H. Poor
man, as attorneys for Carl Augustus
Lehman, made an application for a
new trial before Judge Smith last
week. The motion was objected to by
Count Attorney Oliver on the
grounds that it was not regular, as
the time limit had elapsed. Judge
Smith upheld divers objections and
the motion was denied.
The Lehman case attracted much
attention through the county at the
time it occurred, on account of the
british actions of the accused. Leh-
man formerly lived about eight miles
northwest of Kalispell with his two
motherless daughters, his wife hav-
ing been dead for some time. Suspi-
cion was aroused that something was
wrong, but nothing definite was
learned until the eldest girl swore
out a warrant charging Lehman with
incest.
When the case came to trial, Leh-
man was found not guilty through
some slight error and was discharged
but was Immediately rearrested on
charge of rape. His second tria
was bitterly contested, but he was
found guilty and sentenced to a Ions
term at Deer Lodge.

For a time it looked as if the graft

Americans Living in Adopted States.
AS surprising as it may seem, at
least one-fifth of the native born peo-
pie of this country have wandered
away from the old paternal home
steads and are living in adopted
states. Estimating the native popula-
ton of the country in round numbers
at 65,000,000, there are not less than
100000 today living in states re-
mote from the ones which gave them
birth
This migratory instinct has always
been strongly developed in American
character and it no doubt springs
from the restless spirit which
prompted our primitive Aryan ances-
tors to emerge from the original fam
lily haunts in the heart of Asia and
TO seek the more alluring plains of
Europe. But whatever the source of
this peculiar tendency may be, it's
lmpelling force has been an import
ant factor in the building up of our
national life and character, causing
us to constantly seek new arenas of
action and in this way Keeping the
blood of the nation from becoming
sluggish and stagnant.
Thus, while the effect of this ten
dency has been to make us proverbial
| rovers, it has not prevented us from
gathering moss nor has it obscured
within us the wholesome sentiment
which links us to the old home
places, keeping alive within us the
flame of love for the old birthlands
and making it burn the brighter in
the glow of the broader patriotism.

assarlt on a 12-year-oid idiotic dumb
girs n this county, u miles from here,
LAST Saturday, has Just come to Light
hare. On tnat afternoon John Shaw, q
big muscular boy OF 20, caught Ella
Bralcher, who was sitting by the road
side With her sister aged 9, and seized
her and carried her about LOO yards
INTO the woods. The younger girl ran
20 the house, d short distance, and

The child IS father had no arms and
ssSas unable to cope with Shaw. The
saSher went 20 a neighboring magls-

Wvis. and came here on Tuesday and
sad an attorney to draw up the war-

Bishop Coke Smiths Residence.


s. { see that the good Methodist people
81 AsheviIle, Charlotte and various
other towns are petitioning Bishop A.
Coke Smith to make his residence In
taeir respective communities. All
seem anxious to secure him and are
sytending gracious invitations for him
Is come and live with them.
Now don't see why Spartanbnrg
should not have special claims ON
Bishop Smith. He was born in South
Carolina, almost all his life has been
spsnt In her borders, all his family
connections are here and nearly all his
interests are bound up with this State
In Spartanburg he would feel particu-
siarlv at home, as he was first student
and afterwards professor in WoHorei
college and is acquainted with all our
ueople. Then with the railroad con-
nections of this city he would gain all
t1e practical advantages OF a residence
81 either North or South Carolina.
The only possible hindranee n the
Way Of Spartanburg as his residence
IS thas Bishop Duncan is already liv-
5iine here. But I believe it is often the
ease that two bishops live in the same
city. and it is not objected to. By all
m means let us have Bishop Coke Smith
in SDartarlburg again. -Spartanburg

IND PEOPLE LAUGH.
George tombstone Again Makes
the Speech of the Day.
Declares That Latimer is Just Like Mc-
Laurin in Fawning Upon Republicans
for Patronage.

Laurens, July 31.-The senatorial
meeting was held here today in grove
Just behind the Atlantic Coast Line
track in the presence OF about o00 peo-
ple. It was what may emphatlcally
be called a political meeting. There
was no smonkeying'' either on the
part of the candidates or audience.
The race is now to the swift alone
and he who spends the time allowed to
him in making so-called academic
speeches-relying on dodgers and let
tiers with which the mails are now De-
ing flooded to do his real works
waking up to the fact that ne IS being
outstrippd in the race.
Among jbe incidents Of the meet
ing today was the innovation made by
Mr.. HenphiH to attack the hen law,
State measure, denounclng 1T as
wrong and working an injury to the
agriculturists.
In reply TO Mr.. w. L. Gary, prom
inent lien merchants, Mr. Hemphlll
admitted that while he was In the leg
islature he introduced no bilk for It's
repeal, buG contended that he stood
ready to support bills looking to its
repeal introduced by other members.
Another incident was Col. john
stones Characterization. of Mr.. Latl-
mer's policy OF getting ali the money
possible out Of the treasury by aflliat-
Ing with Republicans as being the
same policy adopted by McLaurin, and
he declared that if this be the only
incentive to action on the part OF our
representatives we would fare better
by electing a straight out Republican
than by electingS a Democrat whose
helplessness is so great that he thought
he could accomplish his mission by
failing to antagonize the Republican
game.
In referring so Mr.. Latimer's boast
about what ne had accomplished In
congress, Col. Johnstone with with
ering sarcasm turned to him and said !:
z. lit. IS said that the Inhabitants or
the Chinese empire and the American
Indians bury with their dead some
slight element of human food In order
that on the resurrection morn the de-
parted shallEnot awake to hunger and
fatiguge. Exclaims my amiable friend
from Anderson-shades OF McDutfle.
of Hayne and Calhoun, to thee, /, thy
successor, come to thee. ! come, oh
mighty dead, bringing to thee as my
contribution, nu5grass roots and
pumpkin seeds.
The audience howled and yelled with
laughter at this thrust. Henderson
and Elliott seemed to have caught the
inspiration today and both made ex-
cellent speeches.
Latimer was entirely on the defen-
sive and stuck to his business
policy.
