PURE FOOD FIGHT
IN LAST DITCH
Enemies sof DR.. Wiley Making
Strenuous Efforts to Cur
tail His Authority.
MANUFACTURERS FEAR BILL
Well Organized Lobby Think There Is
Grave Danger of Disastrous Con-
fict Of Authority.

The opposition TO the pure food bill
is now engaged in a fight in the last
ditch to minimize the authority which
DR.. Harvey W. Wiley will have vested
in himself under the measure. DR.. W. D
is the bette noir of the entire opposition
to the bill. His name is never mentioned
except with either expressed or implied
eXecratiOn. He is to pure food legisla-
tion what Judge Prouty and Secretary
Moseley have been to the rate legisla-
ton Just as the opponents of rate legis-
lation were particularly determined TO
rid themselves of the more earnest ad-
vocates of the policy in the Interstate
Commission. so the opposition to the
pure food legislation has been especially
desirous Of dehorning DR.. Wiley.
Conflict of Authority Feared.
1t now develops that in the opinion OF
the lobby opposed TO food legislation
there is grave danger of a disastrous
conflict of authority between the inspec-
ton system which the pure food bill
provides, and that which is being pro-
vided for packing house products under
the Beveridge measure. The manufac-
turers are fearful that between DR..
Wiley and his inspectors on the one
hand and the inspectors of the Bureau
of Animal Industry on the other they
VIII be ground to ruin. SO they propose
that the powers of DR.. Wiley shall be
properly curtailed. They are extremely
bitter in their attacks on the chief
chemist, whose recent speech at Indian
apOlis has aroused their ire.

An amendment has been prepared for
the bill and will be urged in the House.
which it's supporters say will merely do
away with the possibility Of a conflict
in authority. but which. according to its
opponents, would practically relieve DR..
Wiley of his chief responsibility on the
enforcement of the measure.

The IrishTnan Who Was Dictator in
China

In less than two decades he had be-
come necessary to China. The Govern.
ment recognized him as the helmsman =
OF the only branch from which it could
expect revenues honestly collected and
sure TO materlalize. He was rewarded
with decorations Of rank that made him
equal TO the highest mandarius. Grad.
ually his authority extended beyond
the customs. He became the financial
pilot of the Empire. In matters OF for,
eign policy and trade, his word was
law. The Dowager. Empress, Tsi.Ar,
despot OF the imperial court, bowed TO
his Judgment. When the Tsupgli- va
men authorized treaty or instituted
public improvement, although its
DEGREES made no mention of the Brit
ish censor's name, the author OF the
treaty or the inventor of the lnnova-
tion was Sir Robert Hart; and when
some one must be found TO put into
effect the new plan, the ipspec tor gen
eral OF maritime customs was the only
man fitted for the responsibility. With
out relaxing his watchfulness over the
customs service, which grew rapidly
until it embraced all the ports of entry
