Monday Evening,

was granted by the house on the theory
of consistency with the protective
principle, but it Is by no means GER
tain that this. action will not be nullifed
by later congresses. The members who
recorded their votes against the propo-
sition were Mr.. Stevens, Mr.. Davis, Mr..
STEVENSON and Mr.. Volstead.
Mr.. McCleary is expected to add one
more important performance to ). the
work of the delegation before this ses-
sion closes in the delivery Of the great
tariff speech which has been announced
from. time to time. Mr.. McCleary is
expected to speak in defense Of the
standpatter,' and to show why the
time has not yet arrived for tariff re-
vision. He will also in the same eff
fort emphasize the degree to which he
has departed from the sentiment of his
district on the tariff question. It will
no doubt be an able presentation Of
the high tariff "standpat" position,
but it will not make any votes for Mr..
McCleary next fall. - ).

The Municipal Hennery.

Students of municipal government
who have had their minds nearly 1oored
by the opposing claims Of government
and private ownership, and who have
wondered whether there was any way
to test the questions at issue so as to
arrive at conclusion, will be glad to
know that Cleveland, Ohio, is making
an experiment which appears to be fun
damental. Cleveland is establishing a
municipal hennery. 1885,. X. .. -. -.-
There is an air of tinality about this
experiment., for while there may be
, always lingering doubt whether city
which runs a waterworks can also run
a streetcar system, there can be no
doubt that town which can run a hen
merry, can run anything else on earth.
The suggestion Of rural simplicity in

Why Not a Pure Food Bill?

Representative Mann of Illinois with
bis lecture on impure foods, has made
It plain to the country that there is a
powerful combine Of capital and "ves-
ted' interest back Of the opposition to
q pure food bill, and that therefore one
will not be obtained easily. When
there are millions of dollars employed
In bleaching green cherries and dying
them with aniline that they may be
sold at big price as something else;
when there are other millions actively
engaged In manipulating rotten eggs
into confectionery, it is quite evident
that the grip of these organizations
will not be loosened without struggle.
The crime of the food business is not
the manufacture Of foods, but the coun-
terfeiting of natural foods and their
sale as the real article. The principle
Of a good pure food bill should go to
the stoppage of this counterfeiting as
the government did in the bill forbid
ding the sale of oleomargarine except
when plainly labeled. The government
has succeeded in annihilating it's sale
as butter, why cannot it not as vel
stop the sale of tapioca pills for pepper
or of glucose with dead bees in it FOL
honey? -
What possible objection can there bt
to things being sold for what they are
rather than for something else, unless
there is an illegitimate attack upon thu
public pocket or the public health il
the counterfeiting process?

of this shortage will be calamity to
peasants and to business interests. Yet
wheat will be exported from the more
fortunate provinces just the same as if
there were no shortage.

be to strengthen prices next fall, after

!, WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK
pure Food and Adulteration.

To the Editor of The journal.
I perused with pleasure the article in
reference to the pure food bill in your
issue Of May 80. The pure food bill, no
doubt was side tracked to make room
for measures that were considered Of
more importance than the pure food bill.
There is no doubt at present, however,
that it viii be passed before this session
of congress closes.
The report made by Messrs. Reynolds
and Neill will. no doubt, hasten the pas

jects, the pure food bill.
