Regulating Bee Products.

The Denver Bee-Keepers' Association
held It's regular monthly meeting at
the Western hotel in Denver April 8th.
The announcement was made of the
successful passage of the pure honey
bill through the last Legislature, and
resolutions commencing those who had
Interested themselves in it were adopt
ed.
The bill referred to provides that
adulterated or imitation honey or bees
wax shall not be sold unless promi-
nently labeled as such. and that the
word honey" shall not be used as
part of the trade designation of drugs,
medicines. CONNECTIONS. or any other ar
ticle of commerce. unless actually
forming part thereof: also that when
honey mixtures or compounds are sold,
the purchasers shall be informed of the
percentage of each ingredient. The en-
forcement of the law is given to the
executive of whatever Office regulating
any food products exists in the state,
and suitable penalties attached to vio-
lations. 1t is the first law in the Unit
ed States. possibly in the world, reg
ulating bee-products exclusively. This
results from the progressive character
of Colorado bee-keepers and their
large numbers. Not less than $500
are known in the state, representing a
capital invested of nearly 100000, and
about thirty-carloads exported annual
ly of honey that ranks as a choice
grade in the markets of the country.
The fear of adulteration on the part OF
the public has much to do in retarding
the proper development of Colorado's
resources in this respect, and 1t is
hoped that now, since the public will
have every reason for confidence in dhe
purity of Colorado honey. much bet
ter home market will be developed.
The meeting further discussed the
making of artificial swarms, feeding
for stimulating broodrearing and bee
keepers work in April and as a prepar-
alton for next season. The association
adjourned to the call Of the president.

Mr.. j. G. johnson once told me to treat Mrs.
Suter right or she might knock me down
and / might not know what had hurt me.
During the inquest Mrs Suter appeared
before the jury four times. She was al
ways calm. On each occasion she said
that she and Mortimer We're always on
good terms. Several witnesses test titled
that Mortimer never went near Mrs. Suter
when she was in the johnson house.
Walter johnson, the brother of Mortimer,
was deeply impressed with the importance
of the deliberations Of the jury, and did not
hesitate freely to express his belief that
the young man had been murdered. II

only remained in Baltimore TO keep a
woman away from our home: otherwise
he would have been in New York in bust
ness with me. | think he was stumbling

Detectives Atkinson, Brennan and O'Don-
nell, who worked on the case, all believe
Mortimer was murdered. They developed
an important point in regard to the pistols
with which young johnson is supposed
TO have been killed. 1t was ascertained
that the .38-calibre revolver was not in
working order. The cylinder would not
revolve unless il was turned with the fin
gers, and II only exploded cartridge after
repeated efforts. ball from this pistol
il supposed to have entered the right side
of Mortimer's head.
When the condition of the weapon was

and the question still remains: Was this
revolver fired wben Mortimer was killed?

HEADS. I WIN; TAILS, YOU LOSE.

Chicago follows Omaha's example in Iabof
union reputation of labor union principles. IN
Omaha, as we recently remarked in these COZ
umns the labor unions have secured an inJunc-
ton restraining employers from doing variety
Of things supposed to be contrary to the unions
interests. Thus they have resorted to that SELF
same government by injunction" against which
their most fervent denunciationS were formerly
directed. In Chicago this week the Federation
Of Labor has been denouncing arbitration boards
and negotiations between employers associa-
tons aud labor commissioners as 'snares hum
bugs and industrial pitfalls" and condemning
q recent arbitraI verdict unjust and detest-
able" and refusing to be bound by it. Yet only
the other day labor unions were calling for arbi-
tration, the very thing they now repudiate. as
the one infaibe and divinely appointed system
for settling disputes.
Now, we are not saying that In such inconsist-
ency the labor unions are sinners above all other
men, On the contrary, We recognize that they
are simply manifesting common trait of hui
man nature. 1t is not particularly high and
ennobIing trait. 1t is one whic should as far
as possible be subdued and suppressed. But 1t
exists and it shows itself often among all sorts
and conditions of Heads, l win; tails,
YOU lose" Men cannot always enforce that
rule in the great game Of life, but the desire to
win inclineS them 10 DO SO on many OccdslOis.
They judge the propriety of a thing by the way
in which II serves their own ends. If it helps
them il is good. If it bears against them il is
bad That we say, is one of the elemental
traits of human nature, and it is to be perceived
elsewhere as well as in the labor unions
But wherever it exists it is to be reproved
and condemned at least by all who sincerely
believe in the brotherhood Of and who
strive for the uplifting Of the race to higher
| levels of justice and peace. When employers
resorted to injunctions against labor unions they
should have realized, and probably did so. that
presently the unions would make Of the
same legal processes against them. The unions.
too, should have realized that fact, and should
have respected the injunctions as something
they themselves might find useful instead OF
raging against them as counsels of iniquity.
Again, when the labor unions were demanding
arbitration for the settlement Of disputes they
should have realized the fact that ii might now
and then go against them; and when the verdict
is against them they should accept it loyalty.
There is really no other way to get along. The
