Case of State VS.. Armour Pack
ing Co. For Illegal Sale of
Butterine
ATTITUDE TAKEN BY DEFENSE
Will Show That no coIorins Is Used
in Manufacturing Rutterine, and no
Artificial Means Employed to Bring
it to Iowa-Loss of Case BY Either
Side Will Cause an Appeal.

Des Moines, April 3.-The case of the
state against the Armour Packing Co.
will be commenced this morning be-
fore Judge Given, the charge being the
illegal sale of butterine in the state OF
Iowa. The action is test to deter
mine the correct Interpretation of the
state la win regard to the sale of oieo-
margarine ana putterine of the color OF
butter.
At the request of State Dairy Com
missioner Wright, County Attorney
Jesse Miller called the attention OF the
grand jury to the fact that Armour &
Co. was selling thru it's branch in Des
Moines butterine the color of butter,
and this is held to be a violation OF the
law. The product is manufactured in
Kansas City, and from there is ship
ped into the state to the house at Des
Moines and from here it is distributed
turnout considerable territory. In
the trial today the county attorney and
his assistant will appear for the state
and Judge Carr for the defendant
Officials from the Kansas City house
arrived in the city yesterday and spent
the day in consultation with their at
torney in regard to the presentation of
the case. Among other things that will
be brought out in the trial today is the
manufacture of the product particular
ly in regard to the process of coloring,
and from this it is expected that the
defense will show that they use no
coloring matter in the manufacture
and that on this account, although the
product may be of the same color of
butter, that no artificial means are en-
ployed to bring it to this state.
County Attorney Miller said that the
grounds for the state in fighting the
case were that the code specifically
states that it is unlawful to offer for
sale ,butterine or oleomargarine of a
yellow color, or colored in imitation of
butter. and the penalty for doing this
is a fine OF $500.
No matter which way the case is de-
cided in the lower court, an appeal will
be taken to the state and possibly to
the supreme court of the United States.

The Floors Arc the Counters and
sQuatting Places OF Buyers.
To start Japanese shop is the sim
plest thing in the world. You take the
front off your house and arrange your
worldly possessions on the fleor.
Japanese floors are raised OF the
street, though nothing Is raised off
them. The transient customer sits on
the edge Of the floor sidesaddle. A
real shopper who means to do the
thing properly climbs up on the floor,
which is also the counter, and sQuats
on his heels.
Real Japanese shops have no doors
or windows or counters. Shop windows
in England do not leave much wall in
the frontage. but even an English shop
window does not take the whole front
of the house.
The Japanese have not many regular
shops. There are very few streets OF
shops even in Tokyo, which is as large
as Berlin. Foreigners never buy any
thing but curios. II they are fools.
they deal with shops kept by Euro
peans; IL they want bargains, they deal
with Cinnamon.
There are many Chinese shops in
treaty ports. The Chinaman is cheaper
and more reliable than the Japanese.
European shopkeepers do not set up In
Japan for philanthropic reasons. Jap

SECRETARY ROOT ON THE TARIFF
Saws Trusts Cannot be Wiped Out by
Revision of Schedules Without De-

Revision Of Schedules Without De-
struction Of American Manufacture.
Boston, April 3.-ElihV Root, secre-
tafy of war, and Senator Lodge, OF
Massachusetts, We're the guests Of hon.
or and the principal speakers last night
at the annual dinner of the Home Mar
ket Club.
Secretary Roots address was dis
cussion of the tariff, in which he gave
his reasons why the protective tariff
should be maintained He said pros
perity today is the prosperity OF pro-
ductive enterprise, which has adjusted
itself to the conditions the Dingley law
has created, and the stability of those
conditions In substance is essential to
the continuance of this present period
of prosperity. He declared:
TRUSTS cannot be wiped out by re-
vision of the tariff. unless the country
is ready to reduce the duties to such an
extent as to put an end to all American
manufacture. 1t is impossible that the
reduction Of duties should wipe out
trusts except as it wipes out American
manufacture. When that happens, as
trusts are the feature of the day In for
eign countries, free trade and protec-
tionists alike, you will have substituted
foreign trusts for domestic trusts, and
the prosperity of the foreign workmen
for the prosperity OF the American
workmen."
Senator Lodge spoke on the question
of Canadian reciprocity and the charges
against the American soldier In the
Philippines. He said, in part:
ut is very evident the democratic
party in the failure of all their other
issues, propose to fight their next ma
tional campaign upon the tariff and
its allied questions. Under the soft
and deceptive name of tariff reform, or
tariff revision, they propose to renew
their old attack upon the protective
policy.
signs of their purpose abound on
all sides, not the least significant be-
ing the pleasing recrudescence OF Mr..
Cleveland"
He discussed the Canadian recipro-
city as a phase of the tariff question,
and showed that the failure to bring
about reciprocity was due entirely to
the attitude of Canada.
Senator Lodge then discussed the at
tack of certain democrats upon him for
alleged suppression of evidence regards
ing affairs in the Philippines, and de-
clared that such was not the fact, and
the Philippines.
Discussing the subject, Senator Lodge
referred to Mr.. Root as 1.-The greatest
