Experimental laboratories for the

be opened in Washington.
The Department OF Agriculture has
$4,000 10 spend in the year opened July
on this work The previous year II
had only $4,000. and there are strong
indications that next year Il may have
81 10000 or more and a general COM
mission 10 take general supervision OF
the entire business Of determining the
grade and character OF grain.
Senator McCumber OF North Dakota
believes the work Of the department
along this line is nearing the point
where it is desirable to give it general
powers OF supervision over all inspection
matters. With a very small amount OF
money the department has proved al
ready that the present hit-or-miss meth

DO YOU want sulphur fumes and sui
phur dioxide in your dried peaches. ap-
pies and prlnes?
1t seems that in the evaporation and
preservation Of all sorts OF citrus fruits
they are subjected 10 pretty much the
same process that constitutes the or
thodox treatment of the sinner here
after Fumes OF burning sulphur kill
the germs OF decay that may have been
Implanted in the fruit, and incidentally
leave a deposit of sulphur dloxide. This
sulphur dloxide has fallen under the
grave suspicion OF the pure food board,
and among the purveyors Of dried
fruits there is a norrid suspicion that
the board has placed II under the ban.
California Deeply Concerned
tCaIifornia's fruit industry is deeply
concerned because the prohibition Of
sulphur burning as a preservative proc
ess would involve a great loss to that
interest. 1t has just got to the ears OF
the California people that the pure food
board-Dr. Wiley. DR.. Dunlap. and So
licitor McCabe. Of the Department of
Agriculture-have decided that sulphur
fumes are bad for tne digestion. and
that this preserving process will have
10 be stopped. There has been no an
nouncement OF the decision: in fact. II
is tied up with the general decision on
the use Of preservatives and coloring
matter. But the Californians have got
the distinct impression that the de-
cision is going to be against them.
Fruit People Ask AID.
Governor Pardee and Senator Flint
were promptly enlisted by the fruit
people, and telegraphed TO the food law
authorities asking that no rulings re-
garding the sulphurous process Of pres
ervation be promulgated until a deIega
ton from California can reach Wash
ington. The delegation is now some
where between Los Angeles and this
city, coming East as fast as the trains
VII carry it, to explain to the food
sAarps that a certain amount OF sui
phur dioxide is very useful in the
human anatomy. and that to prohibit II
would be a dangerous mistake.
The California pressure was so stropS
mat the food law board agreed TO allow
the hearing before the new regulations
should be passed upon finally. This
amounted TO a reopening OF the matter
with the board. for that body once de-
cided It, adopted its regulations. and
secured the approval Of Secretary VIII
son and Secretary Straus. All that
remains is 70 get the signature Of Sec
fetary Of the Treasury CorteIyou. and

DIR. HENRY PARKER WILLIS,
Specialist in Finance at G. W. Uni
veTsity.

In the recent appointment Of DIT.
Henry Parker Willis. formerly Of Wash
ington and Lee University. 20 the chair
of finance, the George Washington Uni
versity has secured an able specialist IN
finance. DR.. Willis combines to an ex-
ceptional degree a thorough knowledge
OF theory and Of practice in banking
and Jailed subjects. The report Of the
indianapolis Monetary Commission,
widely used as a standard text in our
colleges and universities, Is largely the
work Of DR.. Willis who will offer
courses in money and banking, finance.
and accounting, IN the new College Of
the Political Sciences recently organized
by the local university.
DR. Willis Is a native Of New England,
but spent his early years in Wisconsin.
He received his collegiate training at
Western Reserve University, where he
was one of the honor men IN his sopho-
more year. and at the University OF CHI
1894 and was then appointed graduate
scholar in 1894 and 1885 In 1895 he was
appointed 70 the frst travelling fellow
ship ever given by the University OF Chi
cago. and in this capacity studied at
Leipsic. Berlin, and Vienna, subsequent
ly receiving the degree Of Phi. D.
In 1898 he was Invited by President
Wilson. OF Washington and Lee Univer-
sity. to organize the department OF eco
Monies At that institution with which
he has been connected during the past
nine years. Since 1901 Or. Willis has
been member OF the editorial stan OF
the New York Evening Post. the New
York Nation and the New York Journal
Of Commerce. Since 1893 he has been at
work upon the organization at Washing
ton and Lee University OF a School OF
Commerce which is now IN the most
fiourishing condition.

considerable delay may yet be occas-
stoned by the protests against the new
regulations. The National Association
Of Manufacturers Of Food Products is
insisting on a hearing before Secretary
Cortelyou before he affixes his approval.
and IL Is said at his office that he will
yield and listen to the Representations
OF the people who use aniline dyes and
benzoate of soda in their foOdstuffs.
Now the California people have secured
the reopening OF the matter as 10 sui
phur fumes. and the regulations are
likely not TO be promulgated for a long
time.
IL is explained that immediate action
is not essential now. because II has been
agreed that no significant changes shall
be made in the rules and enforced as
against the preparation Of the present
years fruit and vegetable crops. They
will be made effective for next years
crop. and there is plenty of time to
secure final rulings beige then.
Desire to Avoid Mistakes.
The food law authorities are deter
mined 10 make no avoidable mistakes,
and to this end are taking plenty Of
time. and listening 10 everybody who
wants to be heard. They propose that
when the regulations are finally put in
to effect they shall be in such shape that
no further appeals win be necessary.
Beyond this. the understanding in def
mite that the new rules about coloring
and preserving matters are going to be
so rigorous that when they are finally
brought out there will be plenty Of pro
test, no matter how carefully the ure-
limlnaries are considered. The board
hopes 70 reduce the volume Of protest
by giving the most thorough considera-
tlon in advance

CARNEGIE'S AID
DR.. Harlan Declared on
That Mission to The

Hot on the trail OF Andrew Carnegie.
patron saint of the higher education,
Or. Richard d. Harlan is said to be hur-
rying across the ocean 10 be present at
an interview with the Laird OF Skibo in
the interests Of George Washington Uni
versity. The meeting IS to take place
at The Hague, where DIR. Carnegie Is
the guest of David Jayne Hill. formerly
Assistant Secretary OF Stale and now
Minister 10 Holland. The success OF DR..
Harlan's mission is forwarded by the
fact that Minister Hill Is a warm sup
porter of the George Washington Uni
versity and In 1902 drew up plan for
the establishment Of College of the Po-
ntical Sciences in the National Capitl.
In addition othe enlistment OF Mr..
Carnegie's moral and financial support,
# is not improbable that the matter
AGAIN will be brought to the attention Of
John ID. Rockefeller. Mr.. Rockefeller's
interest was enlisted five years ago by
Mr.. Hill. and the oil king sent a spe-
oisl representative here 10 look into the
question. For some reason Mr.. Rookie
Teller has never taken any action, al

If the decision is upheld by the
higher courts it will close every sa-
loon in the state
Judge Artman held that the retail
liquor business has no legal standing,
on the ground that it is not one OF the
inherent common law rights of citi-
zenship, since the business is danger
ous to public health, public morals,
and public safety.
LEGISLATURES CAN'T GIVE
RIGHT.
The Legislature, Judge Artman de-
clared cannot make lawful for price
that which is unlawful, because that
contravenes the fundamental principle
70 government In other words, the
legislature cannot legalize menance
to public health, nor can the state,
under the guise of police regulation
looking to the public morals, license
the saloon business.
A wealth of opinions from the
higher courts of many states and of
the United States Supreme court
bearing on these contentious was
quoted in the decision. Some of the
decisions quoted showed that both
federal and state courts had ruled
that no form of gambling. such as
lotteries, etc., could be legalized,
since they are peril to the welfare
Of society. In this connection Judge
Artman pointed out many of the same
courts had held that the sale of in.
toxicants was mensnce to the well
fare of the community, and held
therefore that if it was right to de-
clare gambling unlawful it also was
right to declare liquor selling unlaw.
