The End Of White Sugar.

From the Springfield Union
Now It appears that one effect Of the new
pure-food law will be the end OF white
sugar, and In its place our best of the. sweet
stun will have a decidedly yellow tinge
According to the sugar men. they have to
use a mineral blueing substance in bleach
ing the sugar in order to obtain the spark
ling wbiteness of granulated. and other
white sugars Although this Is used, pre-
sumably. In the proportion Of -four pounds
to the million pounds of sugar, the rules OF
the pure-food commission prohibit Its use,
and unless these rules are modified the pub
lie viii have TO b satisfied with yellow
sugar.

Saving England.
From the London Times.

from the LOnuOn llmeo
Prof. w. B. Hodgkinson suggests a means
Of preventing the eating away Of our coast,
especially on the eastern side, by the sea.
Prof. Hodgkinson would built structures of
sheet iron, length about six feet, height
four feet to five feet and breadth about
four feet or little less. Strength of sheet
iron two millimeters; iron to be hot pitched
when new. series Of these structures to
be moored by means Of a wire or chain
cable in a position at low water. SO that
they form slight arc with the cencave
side to..the set of tide and current; when
one set has become logged with sand and
gravel another series could be placed in
front of the gaps in the first series. The
distances apart would be about the width
of the structure itself. Made of common
rolled iron they would be; very cheap.
Construction would be mere trihe, the
main cost being really in the pinning down
of the holding cable. Iron does not rust
very rapidly in sea water after the first
few weeks. If made Of metal 2-3 millimeter
thick they would last for years, even ex-
posed to wind and water. When complete
ly covered with sand and water they would
last an Indefinite time.

There Is a good deal OF speculation here
as to the effect OF the advice given by
Mr.. w. B. Miller, a prominent republican
and friend OF Mr.. jackson. to the colored
people OF the state in favor Of having them
split their votes between the two parties.
Mr.. Miller contributed an article to the
October number of the Outlook. In which
he took that ground on the broad principle
that the colored people should not adhere
wholly to one party. He is talking along
the same line now. although he Is working
hard for the election of Mr.. jackson.

stand it. The American people are
very peculiar in their extravaganza re-
garding the buying of meats A 1900
Id. steer usually produces $50 lbs,
possibly $50 lbs, of ribs and loins. 1t
does not seem to matter what mans
income is, whether he workingman
or a millionaire, he usually does not
want any part of the carcass but the
ribs and loins, and when you hear the
price of meats mentioned, bear in
mind it refers to these portions OF the
carcass, which are the only parts the
American people want.
l happened to get off at a street
corner in the heart of the laborlng ids
trict in Chicago the other day and
dropped into a butcher shop, as | oft
EN- do when | have time, and noticed
the butcher had nothing but choice
ribs and loins hanging on his racks,
| asked him why he did not keep some
of the cheaper cuts, and he said it was
of no use, as his customers would
buy only the best.
1t is no trouble at all to sell the
choice portions. but our constant
study is to dispose OF the balance OF
the steer, which as you know is the
greater portion and just as whole
some as the ribs and loins, although
perhaps not quite SO tender, but still
very good eating. The result is we
have to export the bulk of what we
call the rougher meats in pickle or
cans, and frequently are obliged to
carry heavy consigned stocks IN for
eign countries before we are able to
dispose of the product at anything like
the cost to us. This necessitates the
maintenance of numerous branch
houses and a large force of travelling
men all over the world selling the
products of Western cattle, the rails
ing of which is an industry you may
we'll feel proud of, owing to the inn
| measurable, worldwide benefits de,

not permitting any amendment

ed 1913 to 1865.
This means that the Statehood

OF course when the time came
enough insurgents whipped into
line as is generally done. IL my
judgment the bill can never pass
the Senate in this shape, but
will be amended eliminating
Arizona and New Mexico. There
is strong sentimenthere in favor
of admitting Indian Territory
