Bulletin No. 80 Of the State Agricul-
tural College, which deals with the
a~dulteration of food products. and
which vas prepared under the dfrec.
tion of Prof. e. F. Ladd, of the State
Agricultural College, who personally
conducted tests of various food pro-
ducts, ought to furnish interesting
reading for members Of the coming
legislature, and should impress upon
them 1.-THE necessity for the enforcement
of a pure food law. The state has at
present a law prohibiting the sale OF
impure or adulterated foods, but the
result of Prot. Ladd's experiments is
rather a sad commentary. either upon
the efficacy of the law or the failure
OF officials to enforce it. Prof. .Ladd's
experiments show an alarming extent
Of aduteration in food products openly
sold in stores in the state.

People who make loose statements OF
this Kind seem to have am idea that
the mining of coal is as simple a mat
ter as the shoveling of earth from a
hillside. They fail to take into ac-
count the fact that before coal can be
mined in commercial quantities costly
preparations are necessary, and that
these preparations require sometimes
many months to complete. There are
shafts to dig, timber supports to be cen
structed. tracks to lay. and a score of
other Things to do-all of which re-
quire time and the labor of many men.
1t is. undoubtedly true that if the COM
had opened more shafts, in
creased the capacity of their hoisting
apparatus, and provided for the hand
ling of twice as much coal as they are
now putting out. they could have
handled mor 1T is equally a fact that
Hast spring the owners of the import
ant mines began preparations for
handling much o than they had
been doing, and that these prepara-
were pushed as fast as possible.
When it became evident that there
would be a great shortage of hard coal
from the east. and that the demand
for lignite would thereby be increased
it was too late to undertake new ex-
tensions, even if the lack of transpor-
tation facilities in the fall had not
prevented the prompt shipment of
what was actually mined. The inter
ests of the coal men have been in the
increase rather than the diminution of
their output, and they have been min
ing and selling coal as fast as they
could.

FIRST VIEW OF WHITE MEN
The Rifle aud Burning Glass Fright,
ened the Indians.

The Rifle aud Burning Glass Fright
eaeJ the Indians.
1t is small wonder that the first view
of a white man created terror among
the superstitious Indians. A striking
instance of this occurred when the
Wallawalla Indians first saw Captain
Clark of the Lewis and Clark expedi-
ton. Thinking to propitiate the a "
ages and allay their fears of the white
men, he planned to visit a village Of
the Wallawallas before the arrival Of
the rest of his party.
With this end in view, he set out to
cross the Columbia river in a canoe,
taking three men with him. On the
way he shot a a and a duck, both
of which fell near him. He landed be-
fore five wigwams placed close to each
other, but not a person was, visible,
and the doors, which were of mat,
were closed. Holding his pipe in hand,
as an Indication Of good will, he push
ed aside one of the doors and entered
the lodge.
Inside were thirty men, women and
children huddled together in terror.
He went to them, shook each by the
hand and said some friendly words,
expressing by word and manner his
kindly feeling. Their ap~prehensions
were allayed until he took out his
burning glass and lighted. his pipe by
the rays of the SUM-. CONSERVATION
again prevailed, and what might have.
occurred but for the timely arrival of
two chiefs who knew the white men
cannot be told.
1t seems that the Indians had not
seen Captain Clark, but they had seen
the white ran which he had shot
fall just before his appearance. They
had also seen the duck fall at his shot.
They connected the fall Of the birds
with his advent and thought he had
fallen from the clouds.
The sound Of the rifle, which they
had never before heard, they believed
was a signal to announce the white
mans coming. Small wonder, then,
that their hardly allayed fears were
again aroused when he brought down
fire from heaven by means Of his burn
ing glass.-Youth's Companion.

Dairy Commissioner Mcconnell, of
Minnesota, i'm compiling the statistics
for his biennial report, has found that
there are 100000 cows employed in
supplying milk to the creameries of
the state, and that during the past two
years they have averaged 166 pounds
OF butter to the cow per year as against
40 pounds per var for the preceding
two years, an increase of SO pounds.
The increase is due to the improve
ment of herds and better care given the
animals by the dairyman.

VALUE OF THE MONROE DOC
TRINE.

The Monroe doctrines roll of de-
tenders grows larger and larger. Canal
da joined the list a short time ago,
and now Australia m over to us.
SAYS the ST. Louis Globe Democrat.
Of course. Canda's reasons for favor
ing the Monroe principle can easily be
guessed. In the event of a war be-
tween England and a coalition of the
big powers of Europe, in which Eng
lands defeat would be probable. Cana
da would be open to assault. That
colony is a. very valuable part CT the
British empire, and an enemy of Eng
land would strike it just as soon as
opportunity offered. Under the Mon
roe doctrine, however. the United
States would be Obliged to resist the
conquest of that locality by any other
European power or powers.
Australia has discovered an import
ant reason why she should defend the
Monroe principle. The establishment
of the cconies of any great European
nation in Central or South America
would, so the Australians say, be a
menace to their independence and safe
ty. Consequently. they have as strong
am incentive as the Canadians for be-
ing champions of the Monroe idea.
The influence of Canada and Australia
it is said, has been exerted in London
in the past week to induce England
to scrupulously refrain from doing
anything which would arouse any dis
trust in the United States. These
colonies are especially anxious that
England should cut oose from the Ger
mai alliance at the earliest possible
moment.
Monroeism's virtues appeal to the
enlightened public sentiment of the
world because it is a great bulwark Of
peace. 1t has saved the American
continent from the partitioning and
spoliation which has gone on in Africa
and which threatens China. Obvious.
ly. in the American case the partition
ing, if it had been permitted, would
have led to ~ceaseless wars, for the in.
habitants of South America, notwith,
standing their follies and ignorance
are far removed above the average o.
the inhabitants of the African CONT.
nent. Their enslavement would be 1
crime against civilization, which wolIlt
be sure to provoke rebellion among The
peoples directly concerned. and woult
be equally sure to involve the Unitet
States The Monroe barrier shuts on
all spoliation, gives the peoples Of tn,
continent the opportunity TO work ou'
their own destiny in their own time
and in their own way. and preserves
the peace of the hemisphere and CT tht
islands adjacent thereto This prfnei
pie wild always have staIwart defend,
ers from the United States, England
and England's colonies in this part o
the world. to say nothing OF the coun
tries of Latin-America themselves.

sided during the business session. The
usual intermission was followed by an
amusement program, during which Chief
Templar DAILY occupied the chair. The
numbers, arranged by Miss Blanche Gala
CHER, included piano solos by Mrs. A. H.
Frear and addresses by Messrs. Corby, Will
kinson, Frear, Russell and Mrs. Chambers.
The several speakers commented upon 1.-The
aims of lodge organizations and the priv
ileges and duties Of Good Templars." These
included frequent and intelligent appeals to
the public through the. medium Of open
meetings, and special efforts to attract at
tendants to the lodge on such occasions as
the pending Grand Army encampment
Chief Templar Daily gave an account Of
two weeks spent in and about Boston,
where his boyhood days were passed. He
related local incidents which bore strong
testimony in favor Of municipalities keeping

DEPOSIT OF LICENSE FEES.
Saloon Keepers Privileged to Pay in
Money Tomorrow.

Under the rules of the excise board the
dealers in spirituous and malt liquors will
be permitted to make their deposits for
their licenses for the coming year tomor-
row morning. The applications are filed in
the order in which they are presented, and
are taken up and acted upon in the same
order by the board The license year be-
gins the list day Of November. and prior to
last year the licenses were issued along
from time to time for several weeks until
all the applications for renewal had been
acted upon. and as 1t was believed to be a
case of first come first served the saloon
men hurried in with their money in order
that their anxiety might be relieved as
soon as possible. Last year the board
acted upon virtually all the applications in
the first few days of the new license year.
The high license law becomes effective
with the beginning Of the new license year
and the amount to be deposited Is $500 in
stead of 800, as heretofore. Men in the
liquor business, as well as the members Of
the excise board and police department. are
anxious to see what difference the new law
Is going to make in the number of retail
places. 1t Is believed that there will be no
great decrease in the number because Of
the high license law becoming effective,
although a few saloon keepers may be
forced out Of business.
There were 51S saloons In the District last
year, and the authorities feel satisfied that
there will be more than 500 the coming
year. The police will be kept so busy next
week that they will hardly be able to take
up their work in connection with the sa-
loon licenses until most of the visitors to
the city have departed.
