ment

Edward j. Hall OF Bennington to

not print;l
Rutland, VT, Sept. 5, 1906.
70 the Editor of the Sun, New York.
Dear Sir:-You print on the first
page OF your issue of September 9Th a
dispatch from Montpelier, Vt, on
tuesday 5 election in this state, in the
course Of which you say'-
"The Issues Of the campaign have
been largely personal. Clements aim
has been to defeat Proctor as step
ping stone TO the United States senate
Both candidates are very wealthy and
it is estimated that each has spent $3.50
900 in the campaign"
The statement OF your correspondent
that the issues of the campaign we're
largely personal is not true. The cam
paign was fought on state issues. The
fusion fight was for better methods of
state government, for economy in state
expenses and for honest politics.
Mr. Clement has always been opposed
to a corruption fund. The statement
of your correspondent in reference to
the money spent in the campaign just
closed evidently comes from source
hostile o the fusion movement. The
figures are entirely wrong so far as we
are concerned. Our books containing
an itemized account of expenditures
show that the fusion campaign from the
date OF Percival w. Clements nomina-
ton down to this morning were $40, 669-
SO.
We fought the campaign just closed
on the basis of Legitimate election ex-
penses. Mr. Clement favors law re-
quiriug not only all candidates but all
the agents of candidates to report
their expenditures whenever demanded
even during the course of campaign
Yours very truly,
Edward j. Hall.

A Pertinent Pointer.

No town will become a good
business center 80 long al it's
business men rely on a few mer-
chants to make the effort to bring
trade to town. Too often the men
ina few lines of trade are about
the only ones that reach out after
trade. Other merchants wait until
these men induce the people to come
to town and content themselves
with the trade that naturally drifts
to their place. A public spirited
man should ask himself if he is doing
his. part to attract people to come
to town to trade in helping the en-
tire business community, and no
town is a success unless all lines are
working to extend the trade as far
az possible and trying to bring q
larger territory in the circle in
which the town is the business
center.-Ex.

Worth Remembering. g.

There ars. threesentirely different,
Kinds of ingredients used in making
thekh1ee different varieties Of bak-s
ing powders on. the market, viz:
-(1) Miuerdl-Acid or Alum, y
(2) Bone-Acid or Phosphate, and
(3) Cream of Tarter made from
grapes. It is important, from the
standpoint of health, to know some
thing about these ingredients, and
which kind is used in your baking
powder, #
% Mineral-Acid or Alum, is
made from kind OF clay. This is
mixed with diluted oil of vitriol
and from this solution product is
obtained which is alum. Alum is
cheap; costs about two cents
pound, and baking powder made
with this Mineral-Acid sells from
10c to Csc a pound.
~ Bone-Acid, or Phosphate, is
the basis of phosphateA baking
powders and the process is fully
described in the patents issued to
large manufacturer of phosphate
powder. The q. 5. Patent Office
Report gives full and exact des-
cription but the following extract
is enough: =:
"Burned bones, after being
ground, are put into freshly diluted
oil of vitriol and with continu ual
stirring and in the following pro-
portion etc.
From this Bone-Acid phosphate
baking powders are made; such
powders sell from 20 to 80 cents
pound.
(3)> Cream of Tartar exists in all
ripe grapes, and flows with the
juice from the press in the manu-
facture of wine After the wine is
drawn off the tartar is scraped from
LILO cash. UOlAcU "1lA "dGoI, anu
crystals of Cream OF Tartar, white
and very pure, separate and are
collected. It differs in no, respect
from the form in which it originally
existed in the grape. Cream OF
Tartar, then, while the most ex-
pensive, is the only ingredient that
should be used in a baking powder
to act upon the soda, as it's whole
someness is beyond question.
Cream of Tartar baking powders
sell at about 40 to so cents a pound.
| Such are the facts, and every
oue, careful Of the health Of the
family, should remember this rule:
Baking powers selling from 10 to
25 cents pound are made of
fMineraf.Acids; those selling from
2Osto 80 cents of 'Bone-Acids; and
those FROM 40 to 50 04cents of Cream
of Tartar made from grapes.
