he had passed on this long journey to
a lady sitting next him at a dinner

THE Boise Statesman stands
condemned over the state by
various newspapers for falsely
stating that W. e. Borah was
defeated by Mormon influence.
Investigation of the fact how
ever, shows the contrary: that
if there was church influence
used at all in the senatorial
contest it was certainly in favor
of the Statesman's candidate.
A summary of the vote shows
that Mr.. Borah received the
support of President Steele
of Bingham stake, President
Kilpack of Teton stake, Presi-
dent Parkinson of Oneida stake,
Ben E. Rich, President of the
Southern missions, Victor
Hegsted and John W. Hart,

OUR inoffensive friend, the
Rexburg Journal Editor, wakes
wrath and devotes a column of
double loaded small plea matter
to informing the church officials
of that locality that THE TETON
PEAK has committed a great sin
by commenting on the WOoley-
Cunningham incidentin a manner
that reflects upon the good faith
of the Mormon Church officials.
We are frank to say that if there
were any officials in the Mormon
church of the same Calibre of the
Journal editor that organization
would not prosper long, but
would indulge principally in
trading votes for pie. Fortunate
ly the officials of Fremont stake
are more honorable and true tC
their convictions and would not
knowingly and willingly mis-
construe and mis-represent the
opinion of another for the selfish
motive of personal gain; they
are above bartering and trading
their neighbor off for a paltry
office.
We Ire of the opinion tha'
some individuals in southern Ida
no try, through their e~cclesias
tical positions to run the polite.
of the Mormon voters. Th,
statement has been made b,
Fremont Republican leaders wh'
are also church leaders tina
religion and politics must b'
kept separate and apart ant
that southern Idaho can NJ
longer dictate the policy of Ere
mont politics. Amen.

Adulterated Food in Idaho.

Pure Food Inspector Mcpherson has
been making some astonishing reyela-
tons regarding the adulteratiOn Of
many Of the brands of so called popular
food stuffs that are sold by dealers
everywhere. In speaking of the reck-
~lessness and ingenuity of the adulteraters
of these foods, the Statesman says.
when a citizen of Boise has risen
from a meal of wheat cakes prepared
with alum powder, served with honey
made of glucose; currant jelly composed
of glucose, dextern and gelatine
sprinkled with timothy seed. canned
tomatoes made of turnips and potatoes
dyed to the proper complexion; putrld
fish preserved with salt of sink and
aluminium, favored with vinegar made
of hydrochlorie, caramel and Missouri
river water and pepper, which is seventy
percent cocoanut and peanut shells, all
washed down with milk preserved with
''freezum,' a compound of borax and
formaldehyde. or cream composed of
skim milk doctored with thickeners of
albumenoids and alkeloids, he will have
had ONE conception of commercial
honor"
Here are some of the products found
by Mr.. Mcpherson to be highly adulter-
ated:
A popular brand of California honey
when subjected to a test, proved to be
nothing more than glucose and cane
sugar. Glucose. which is used so ex-
tensively in adulteration, snot unwhole-
some in its natural state and on account
of its cheapness it is a handy substitute
One brand Of cayenne pepper assayed
80 per cent saw dust, colored with
analine dye. Another PANIED out 70
per cent peanut and %cocoanut shells.
Pure vinegar was hard to find. Most
of it contained hydrochiorie, sulphuric
and acetic acids, glucose and caramel in
sufficient quantities to tan the stomach
of Il hippopotamus.
A startling revelation was that nearly
all the olive oil turned out to be cotton
seed.
Thus far the inspector has not run
across any pure lemon extract. The
genuine article is always clear. If it
has any color it must be adulterated.
Many of the lemon and vanilla extracts
are wholly artificial.
Some catsups We're found so per cent
pumpkins, colored with cochineal or
bug juice.
Tempting raspberry jam when an
alyzed was found to consist of glucose
colored with coal tar dye and preserved
with salicylic acid and favored with
extract.
Dainty currant jam when tested
disclosed glucose, dexterin and gelatine,
in which timothy seeds were scattered
for appearance sake, the mixture being
favored with currant extract.
Glucose was discovered to be a popular
ingredient in the manufacture of syrups
Samples of cloves showed up 20 pei
cent stems,
Some of the brands of canned salmon
are v~illainously preserved and absolutel,
unit for food.
Every brand of French peas examined
was found to contain copperas.
