Foreign Wine Producers Angered at
American Consuis' Activity.

American Consuis' Activity.
Washington, Aug. 22.-Amerlcan
oonsuls in the wine producing coun-
tries of Europe are getting into hot
water through their obedience to the
orders to the state department To make
minute reports on the method of prep
aration and OF shipment of wine des-
tined for American consumption The
state department Is acting IN this mat
ter at the instance of the departments
of agriculture and of commerce and
la Dor, with view 10 the enforcement
of the anti -adulteratlon act.
The American consuls have work ed
with surprising results, il is said for
the extent of the adulteratlen and doc
toring of foreign export wines never
before had been appreciated. This &C
i.ity ON the part of the consusl has
engendered a bitter feeling toward
them by the foreign wine producers
and exporters, and in somei instances
they have succeeded in making the
consul S stay at his post unpleasant.
The state department will uphold Its
agents to the fullest extent where their
personality does not enter into the OPP
position

The sophistry of the French ministry is inter
esting. DIR. Combes says he and his colleagues are
not prosecuting any religious body, but on the
trary they have in view lofty ideal to upift the
masses. They approve Of religion, they say. They
to be commended for their good intentions, but
if religion is good thing as they say it is, surely
the masses can not get too much of it, they
begin to get it too early in life How are the chill
dren of the poor to get their religious training? In
their homes, according to DR.. Combes But how
much religion is apparent in the home life of the
common people either in America or France? There
was chance that the children Of the poor would
receive some benefit from the religious instruction in
the schools the new ruling deprives them of this
chance.
These reformers have made mistake. The
orders that have been driven from France have done
much good among the people, There is not in
stance on record to prove that they have wrought
any evil. It certainly seems like bad policy to
abolish any factor that is Of good in the life
of a nation.
It requires only brief glance at the work these
orders have done to realize that their expulsion will
prove loss to the state. In the hospitals they faced
death and battled with disease in the contagious
wards Will the Combes ministry provide nurses to
take the place Of these brave women? Many a
sufferer has thanked God for giving to re-
ligon that inspired its believers with heroism DR..
Combes would substitute for this empty platitudes
about uplifting the masses. The educational work
carried on by the expelled orders was surely worth
something to the nation. The children were taught
something valuable than reading, writing and
arithmetic they received moral training. But DIR.
Combes evidently places more value upon the three
RS than upon moral training.
The bigotry of few men in power will not re-
tard the growth of religion in France, altho it may
check it temporarily. In the end it will triumph
and long after Dr. Combes~and his short-sighted
associates dead and forgotten it will still be the
ideal of the nation In the meantime the policy of
the Combes ministry will bring disaster upon its
|adherents No government has ever been successful

to their original meaning. Some papers have quoted
him upholding the saloon, others have explained
in detail how many drinks he himself takes each day
and which bars he patronizes. Before the story will
