WHAT ARE WE COMING TO?

A correspondent asks the very
timely question,-Are the people to
support the government. or is the
government to support the people?
This question is being earnestly han
ded around for discussion in both
houses of congress-. Is it the bust
ness of the government to protect
the people from quacks and frauds?
The house has just passed an anti
food adulteration bill which author
ICES and instructs the Secretary of
Agriculture to employ an army of
inspectors to roam over the country
and sample prepared foods, pres
erves, canned goods, drugs, chemi-
Gals. etc, n to prosecute cases of
adulteration. The Wool Growers
Association wants an army of wool
inspectors, and compulsory labelling.
A law has been passed to prevent
the sale of seeds. trees, plants, vines
clover, etc., sold under false names
Well, what is to be the end of this
meddling? Are the farmers of the
States to be protected from
lightning-rod men, patent churns.

bee hives that a swarm will not en-

misses are not justified by the result.
and the vendors OF fruit trees which
bear the wrong kind of fruit?
Is congress henceforth to protect
people against merchants who
sell woollen goods that contain cot
ton and silk fabrics thai contain
wool? The people of the south have
hitherto managed to protect them
against the oaken nutmegs
