BODY FOUND.

Floating in the Columbia river oppo-
site the Kinney Cannery the badly de-
composed body of Matt Hummasti, the
fisherman who was drowned on May Is
last, after the steamer Costa Rica had
ran down the small boat in which he and
his brothers were, was found yesterday
by H. B. Lienenweber of the Standard Oil
Co. The remains were at once tied
to the wharf and Coroner Pohl notified,
when he removed the body from the
water to the undertaking parlors. The
relatives of the deceased were informed
of the recovery of the body, and they
identified it as that of Hummasti. Be-
cause of the circumstances surrounding
the death of Hummasti and the belief
that proper precautions had not been OBJ

Coroner Pohl will hold an inquest, and
yesterday afternoon summoned a jury

In the house the sundry civil bill still

have the Senate change its motion re-

considered in the house before second
conference can be had. 1t is planned to
have this occur today.
One Of the early actions this week
will be the consideration of the agricul-

get this bill into conference at the earl

GOOD YEAR AT DELAWARE.

ID PROSPECTS for fine year at Delaware Col
a lege are bright and the institution is climb
ing upward. Seventeen towns of the State are
represented in the Freshman class and there are
many students from beyond the borders of Del
aware. One Of the features of this years class is
that large percentage of the new men are taking
the old fashioned classical course. This is a sign
not to be discouraged. In former years college
education was regarded as the classical course,
but this has been widely extended until the tech
nical courses in many institutions have entirely
overshadowed the classical, and yet for sound
education and the preparation of young men for
the professions, the classical course is most de-
srable.
That thorough collegiate education is desr-
able for one who wishes to pursue learned pro-
fession is illustrated directly by the statistics of
the Harvard Medical College, where the entrance
requirements are a college diploma Very sell
dom, indeed, is it that a,graduate of Harvard fails
at an examination before State medical board
in any of the States, while some of the medical
colleges show as high as fifty per cent of failures
before the final test of the State boards of exam
iners.

OPPOSES EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN.

r VERY EVENING appears to be wrought
- up because the Republican State Commit
tee has created literary bureau from which is
being sent pamphlets and literature to the voters
for their information and instruction the issue
of this campaign Just why Every Evening
should object to this method of campaigning we
fail to understand, unless it be, that, like Editor
and Candidate Wilson, of the Delaware State
News, it would have the Republicans lie entirely
dormant and not spend dollar or exert a single
effort to arouse the citizenship Of Delaware as
to its duty at the coming election. II may be
that Every Evening does not approve a campaign
of education, but prefers to take chances either
on keeping the voters in ignorance of the issues
involved in the election, or a more effective plan
the Democrats may have OF influencing" voters
to support their ticket. However much Every
Evening may disapprove the methods adopted
by the Republican State Committee to distribute
its campaign literature, we insist that it might
with credit to itself have omitted from its col
umns the very discourteous editorial comment
upon and its uncv and impertinent interview
with Mr. Click, who is at the head of the literary
bureau Mr. Click is a citizen and resident of
our State has had wide experience in the legiti-
mate detail work of political campaigns, and the
party is fortunate to have at its command his val
liable services. Besides he is thorough gentle
man and deserves to be treated as such, even

law becomes effective pure food, at least vastly
improved food will be certainty.
How the food falxirs operated is shown by
prices for the good and adulterated stufs. Teas
for instance, are notoriously adulterated. The
adulterated tea is made OF dust, broken particles
of tea and refuse. The substitute for coffee sold
cheapy, is made up Of chicory, often without the
slightest suspicion of-fhe coffee bean The Yer
mont farmer does not give the city dealer an OPP
portunity to adulterate maple sugar He does it
all himself by adding white or brown sugar
This will be barred out under the new law. Real
genuine honey commands a high figure, but an
imitation Of glucose with bogus honeycomb is
largely sold
The breakfast foods are usually what they pre-
tend to be. They can be produced so cheaply
that adulteration would hardly pay, but often
cheap grocery stores swndle with light weight
packages
The new law will put out Of business the "con-
densed milk in which adulterahon is rampant
The gelatine and spice Frauds and the adultera-
tion Of lards will also be halted. Most of the
canned vegetables the commission considers
straight" although an inferior quality of fruit
and vegetables is often used.
After January l. the law will prevent the laying
down Of the imported and domestic adulterated
drinks 1t is expected that the labelling Of the
bottles containing the drinks will prove a great
temperance lecture although many Of the liquor
dealers, the commission finds, believe that the
public enjoys doctored liquors and will continue
drinking fusel OIL wood alcohol and aniline dyes
in spite of the labels

but the people of the rest of the coun-
try consider they have some claim
on Theodore Roosevelt as a publlcist
and statesman, especially we'll qualified

has Senatorial ambitions, why could
he not be made Senatorial Large

Of for one? The old question. What
shall we do with our ex-Presidents? %
might be very well answered by maxi

legal obstacle to the adoption By Con-
gress OF a law creating the office OF

ton that 1t would create a privileged

was such a law IN existence to-day
