NEW CASTLE AMBITIOUS
POPULATION INCREASES
Citizens Proclaim Their Purpose to
Reach 10000 Mark-Great Gain
Made During The Past Six Years
BY Flower City.

New Castle, Ind, Sept 8, fSpl)-
A gain of 80 per cent in population
in six years is the record of New
Castle, the Flower City, one prob
ably not equaled by any city in the
State of Indiana. The Government
census of 1900 showed the population
of New Castle to be 34O6 and the
census just completed shows the pre-
sent population TO be $500. The
number of people living in the city
at the present time was learned by
statistics gathered for the issue of a
new city directory which will be dis
tributed next week. Before another
year it is expected that the popula-
ton of New Castle will be over TO-,
600 and if plans for acquiring certain
factories succeed, and there is every
reason to believe they will, the Flow
er City may have population of
10000 by 1910. The building Of in
terurbans will bring in many people
and the new factories, now almost
assured, are expected to do the rest.

From Secretary of

OPINIONS ARE WANTED
POINTS IN RELATION TO THE EN-

FOOD LAW ARE TO BE PASSED
UPON SOON.

Indianapolis, Ind, Sept. S.-H. E
Barnard, chemist of the State Board
of Health, and Fl. f. Bishop and Nor
ris Thompson, assistants in the chem.
ical laboratory, have received letters
from James Wilson, secretary of Ag-
Ticulture, asking for their opinions,
as experts, on certain points with ref
erence to the enforce ment of the new
national pure food law.
THE food and' drug law forbids the
additions to foods of any ingredient
which may render such articles inju-
rious to health" reads the letter 1T
also forbids specifically the addition
of any poisonous or injurious color
or flavor or any which may deceive
or mislead the purchaser in any re-
spect regarding its character. In
harmony with the authority invested
in me by the Congress, | desire to
ask your advice on the following
points:
Il. Are preservatives, other than
the usual continental preservatives,
namely salt sugar, alcohol, vinegar.
spices and wood smoke, injurious to
health?
- Does the introduction of any
of the preservatives which you deem
injurious to health render the foods
injurious to health?
IS. If a substance added to food is
injurious to health, does it become
so when a certain quantity is pres
ent only, or is it so in any quantity
whatever?
Il. If a substance is injurious to
health, is there any safe limit to the
quantity which may be used. which
may be fixed by regulation or by law?
IS. If foods can be perfectly pre-
served without the addition of chem
ical preservatives, is their addition ev-
ier advisable.
Are artificial colors advisable in
foods, and if so, what kinds, in what
quantities and under what restric-
tions?
I'm propounding the above ques-
tions | desire to say that | am aware
of the difference of opinion among ex-
perts respecting the use of preserva-
tives and colors. [ am also aware
of the fact that the laws of many
countries and of many of our States
specifically forbid the use of certain
colors and certain preservative sub
stances. i desire to be guided by
the best unguided authorities on these
important matters, keeping in view
always the safety of the consumer
for whose protection the food law
was enacted. | therefore beg you to
answer these questions and thus help
me to interpret properly the acts of
Congress referred to above. | shall
be pleased to have a reply as early
las convenient"

LETTERS TO PRISON INMATES

Ruling Which Has Interest to Every Person Who Has An
Unfortunate Friend or Relative Behind Prison Bars

Richmond people who have friends
and relatives in the state prison can
write to them with confidence that
some stern prison official will not first
is of suitable nature to be delivered
to the convict
This comes from the recent ruling
of the attorney general of the United
States, in which it is declared that
prison authorities have no legal right
to open the mail of prisoners without
the consent of the person to whom the
letter is addressed.
The attorney general of the United
States, in speaking of the custom of
wardens to open the mail of prison
ers as precautionary measures,
says:
ITO allow the letters to be opened
by an officer not in charge of the pris-
oner and then to be returned in a
mutilated condition, thus endangering
the safe delivery of the letters and
such enclosure as it may contain, and
this, too, because the officer has fail
ed to advise himself before opening
the letter that he can not deliver it,
is an outrage upon the rights of the
prisoner"
Another passage of the decision of
the attorney general of the United
States in the interests of the post Of

office is in the custody of the depart

Indiana prison authorities take
charge of all mail that is sent to the
inmates of the different institutions.
In the reformatory and in the state
prison, all mail addressed to prison
ers is carefully perused by an employee
before it is turned over to the person
who is entitled to receive it. Super
intendent Whitaker of the state pri-
son, in his request for an opinion as
to his right to open the mail of the
inmates of his institution, informed
the attorney general that prisoners on
entering his institution usually sign
an agreement by which the superin-
tendent is given the right to receive
and open all mail that may come to

tendent wrote, I'VE have returned

The Schools.

The Washburn school COM
menced last Monday for the win
ter's session. A full corps of
teachers were present at the open
ing day and the attendance on the
start was not.up to last year. but
is very gratifying to the teachers
and is increasing every day. The
decrease "a, in q attendance is due
mainly tothe mumps making the
rounds and many of the older ones
assisting at home during the har-
vest rush. In another month the
attendance will be up to the usual
standard.
The teachers. four in number
are OK 2erienced in their line Of
work. They gave such good salts
faction last year that they we're re-
tanned for the coming year.
Washburn has good schools and
those in charge of the management
have worked early and late to bring
the schools up to such a high
grade of efficiency and they are
going to keep it up to as high a
standard as possible.
Prof. Kaufman, who is at the
head of the schools, is graduate
of the Valley City normal and is
an educator of recognized ability.
This year under his management
a ninth grade has been added and
the studies taught are those pre-
scribed by the high school course
of study. Pupils taking this work
are prepared at the end Of the
year, after taking the high school
examination, which is conducted
by the county superintendent, TO
enter the 10th grade of any qf the
high schools Of the state. The
teachers and the grades are as fol-
