PALM OIL DECLARED NOT
AN ARTIFICIAL COLOR
Internal Revenue Commissioner Gives
Hearing to OIeomargarine Interests.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. A.
Commissioner Yerkes, of the internal
revenue bureau, today gave a hearing
margarine interests on the question of
allowing the use of palm oil in the
manufacture of oleomargarine. The
contention of counsel was that, al
though palm oil gives to oleomargarine
tinge of yellow, 1t is not an arti-
fetal color within the meaning of the
law.
Counsel will file a brief within the
next few days in support of this posi-
ton. A decision probably will be made
by the commissioner early next week.

Of the other cities mentioned. 1t is true
that our local club is weaker so far as
numbers and finances are concerned than
and for this reason as much local assist
ance could not be expected as in Chicago
or in Boston. but if the salon is to be
nltional in its character. this ought not
to weigh against this city in the seIec-
tion OF the location OF national photo
graphic salon.
1t matters not how favorably we may
consider either city, when compared with
Philadelphia. the advantages are largely
in favor of the latter city. This advan-
tase arises from the fact that the Penn
sylvania Academy of Fine Arts has taken
an unusual interest in the advancement OF
photography as an art. and has yearly
given for the support of the salon valU
able financial assistance. 1t is doubtful il
any other institution in this country can
be found that will be willing to make as
free use of money in support of such
an undertaking as has been made by the
Pennsylvania Academy. aud the fact that
diSsensions among the photographers may
lead this institution to withdraw it's
former generous support ought to go far
toward bringing about cessation of hos
tilities in the amateur ranks before a
reconciliation becomes impossible.
If it should seem to be the proper thing
TO advocate a national salon in tAis city tho
local club may be depended upon to do tho
best that il can so far as its numbers and
means will permit. but for such an enter
prise there should be sufficient financial
Endorsement to give the salon that en-
thusiasm that only proper financial back
ing can produce.

PENNSYLVANIA. 1t seems that the trust
decided that the time had arrived to drive
the Bradley platinum paper out OF the
market, and with this end in view the
agents of the trust proceeded to purchase
all the platinum paper in the hands of
the dealers who handle the papers manu-
factured by the trusts. ard advised the
dealers that If they placed en- sale fur

taken from them and further orders OF

1t is rumored that the State of Penn
sylvania intends to test this matter to de-
tcrmine whether trust can lawfully use
such methods to drive out of business
one of the prominent manufacturers of
that state, and the decision will be
anxiously awaited by many dealers who
have felt that the trust has had far too
much to say about the manner in which
they should conduct their business affairs.
While the trust question may have two
sides there exists a strong belief that the
trusts are not conducting business from
esthetic or philanthropic motives. One

Beautiful in Summertime.
In the summer time, Dumptown is al
most beautiful. Tall grass covers the
barren ash-heaps; rose bushes and morn-
ing glories blossom about the little shan
ties and few stunted trees lend their
cooling shade and green leaves to the
picture. In the distance a line of trees
on the Virginia shore of the river forms
a pleasing background.

On the very edge of the settlement. in

distance below the level of the surround

eggs to the prominent families Of George

tion OF the ash-men and rag-p!ckers, and
with many God bless mes proceeded
to tell Of the wonderful things which they
found in the refuse piles and ash heaps.
According to her statement the larger
part of their income is derived from the
valuables which come into their hands.
Industries of Dumptown.
The industries of Dumptown are, besides
picking and ash-sifting. the manufac-
ture of garden earth from stable refuse
and the collection of old bricks. These
latter bring from So to 50 thousand, but

The Pioneer Rag-Picker.
The pioneer of the rag-picking business
is John Douglas, an old negro, who
claims to have enjoyed the uncertain re-
turns OF that industry since 1853, when
the whole of what is now the Monument
Grounds was a marshy area which re-
ceiyed all the refuse from the city. and
where it was possible to collect a hun
dred pounds of paper and rags a day.
