THE PURE FOOD CRUSADE
A New York Reader Discusses Seyera
Interesting Points.

To the Editor of The Journal.
In your esteemed issue of March 4
you have an article on the pure food
crusade and lecture given by Mrs.
Walter McNabb Miller before the Chi
cago Woman's club A great number Of
lectures have been delivered on pure
food. When a person delivers a lecture.
he or she should be an expert on the
subject and not jump at erroneous
statements and call them facts. That
vast quantities Of our food products are
artificially colored and adulterated can
not be denied, but because food has been
colored or adulterated with some cheaper
substance it does not make it poisonous.
Coloring matter does not enhance the
food value and is Of no benefit except
to please the eye, and 1t is the ladies'
eyes that are delighted with bright col
ors. So let the ladies use common sense
and demand uncolored butter, meats,
tomatoes, peas, spinach, etc. Such
action on their part will prevent artifi-
cial coloring Of foods. The adulteration
Of food will be abolished when the pub
lie learn that it is. not economy to pur-
chase food that has been adulterated
with some inferior substance to cheaper
it., or when some of the food value has
been extracted. A law compelling the
labelling, Of all preserved foods will give
the public an opportunity to protect
| themselves. So I most heartily advocate
such law. An article that has been
preserved with some mild, innocent pre-
SENTATIVE however, should not be deemed
adulterated, as it is not used to depreci-
| ate the food value, but. to enhance it,
- r' AS to Personalities.
The general belief is that preserved
| food poisons the consumer; consequently
the proposed pure food law condemns
preservatives other than salt saltpeter,
smoke, sugar, spices and alcohol
1t is not the preserved food that is
dangerous to mankind. it is the food
that is not preserved and that is in q
fertile condition for the development OF
toxic germs. Almost every day we reaC
of ptomaine poisoning on account Of
food being eaten that was not preserved
So it is not wise to condemn mild pre-
sentative that would prevent the forming
of ptomaine poisoning.

Official Paper OF the City and County.
FRIDAY, MARCH 10, 1881.

A Fargo reporter announced that one
of the towns hotels had a new culinary
department. That was starter. The
inhabitants couldn't tell whether it was
a new patent bridal chamber, bath house
or baggage room, and they didn't care,
so long as it was something painted
red. If the reporter had only said
kitchen in plain English they wouldn't
have killed him, but Fargo is not the
kind of a place in which you can fool
the people with impunity. -

New York Paper Draws This ConcIu.
Id sion Concerning Chief Bracket.


:. The following compliment for Chief
Bracket appears in the New York Dis
patch of March 13: -. NJ.
When out-of- town chiefs get anywhere
near Brooklyn, they never fail to call on
the veteran chief, Nevins. W. NJ. Bracket
of Minneapolis, Mimi, called upon him late

are Informed that he is an able fireman,
and is personally a genial gentleman.
Tile Minneapolis fire department, which
is paid one, consists of six hose compan-
les two steamers two hook and ladder
trucks and one chemical engine. 1t has
seventy men and twenty-five horses. They
use the Gamewen fire alarm system and
have the Holly system with 230 fire hy-
drants. The water pressure from each
hydrant Is 100 to $50 pounds. On account
of this large pressure engine company Is
almost necessity. The city. which has
only a population Of 46,2s3, appears to be
very we'll off. so far as fires 50.
There is nothing like fame, and Chief
Bracket seems to have plenty of 1t,
abroad as well as at home. The joke
Of the matter is that Win has not been
in Brooklyn, and would like to know
who the good looking man is that has
been acting as his double.

Primrose Minstrels."

It is an open question, did George
Primrose discover Emile Subers, or
did Subers find Primrose? At any
rate, it is a happy combination, for
without this star of minstrely, the
production last night would have been
very weak as laugh producer.
Mr. Subers is very much on the
order of George Wilson, and evident
ly takes much delight in ferreting out
the short comings of a city, for his
many shafts last night were wer
placed. His song, 1--WE Said My Last
Farewell" was we'll sung, and his
performance all the way through
made him a favorite in Greenville.
During the first part, the honors
of the vocalists were evenly divided
as every song was we'll rendered by
capable artists David Irwin sang a
beautiful ballad entitled ''When the
Evening Breeze is Signing, Home,
Sweet Home" and the applause was
generous. The old favorite "Si1vef
Threads Among the Gold" by Will
Oaklin, was we'll received; though
the singer has fine soprano voice
and is better suited to play female
imperSonator." Chas. Remnant sang
"New Hampshire Molly" in a mas
terly manner, his strong tenor voice
pleasing SO we'll that he was forced
to respond to several encores, among
which he sang Fritz Emmett's we'll
renowned Lullaby and awakened
echoes of the past.
On the end, Geo. Primrose and
Emile Subers were excellent ana
sprang many new jokes, interspersed
with few old ones George German
and Eddie Koran were only fair dur
ing the time they were On the end.
The second part demonstrated the
clever ability to Primrose as drill
master, for the many dances and mill
itary drills were perfect in rhymtf
and precision. The sketch, The Mag
nolia Hotel" was very bad for it
kept one waiting for something to

affording any anus ~1nent. 1t would
be better to leave this out
The spectacular scenic wind-up was
pretty and a clever finish to clever
minstrel performance. It was a good,
old-time production; clean, we'll
staged and we'll appreciated by good
sized audience, who left the theatre

COME OUT
IN THE OPEN
$4,000 IN 1910

The coming Code election has
brought about state of affairs de-
plorable in the extreme. The issue is
one that should be fought in the open
by both sides. 1t is question that
should be voted upon intelligently and
every voter should deem it his duty
as a patriotic citizen to cast his vote
as he thinks best for the interest of
the city.
There are many voters who are not
yet fully satisfied in their minds just
which would give the greatest good to
Greenville, they do not fully under
stand the question and are at sea as
to whether to cast their vote to go
under the code or let the present
special Charter remain, with few
amendments
These voters, so undecided, have
seen and heard enough to make them
thoroughly Disguised with the matter
fight or election, and ther are not to
be blamed But someone is response
bic for this feeling of antipathy that
is gradually becoming an unseen but
important factor in either carrying or
defeating the code measure
Both sides claim to be fighting for
the betterment of the city, but they
wage their war on very difficult lines
of battle 1t reminds one of the old
days of intrigue and hidden hand
workings, and this question is to all
too important to be decided by any
such methods. Every patriotic Amer
lean citizen loves an open, fair and
square fight. There is nothing that
tends more to create suspicion and
distrust in political or any other inn
portant question, than secrecy. And
this is what the undecided voter Is
confronted with in the code fight
Those who want tbs city to go srn-
der the code hold their meetings IN
secret. Unless you are known to be
fully for the code you can have no
part in their sessions. If you are in
cIined toward the code, but do not
feel fully satisfied. you are rousted.
Honestly, with the best interests OF
the city at heart. We ask, is this a
proper manner IN which to conduct a
fight on such question of the most
vital importance? Is it fair and just
to all interests to conduct such cam
paign? Isthis a bush-whacking fight?
And right down in their hearts can
the code people hope to carry the
election by such methodist
What do we have on the other
