thor, and have been strong enough
so far to defy enforcement by the
government. Although there have
been decisions by the legislative,
executive and judicial branches of
the government, upholding the
intent of the law as to imitation
whisky, the distillers are still
marketing their 60,000,000 gal
Ions of colored and favored alco-
hol annually under the name OF
pure whisky"
The fact that DR.. Wiley is still
fighting this practice makes him
enemies among the makers of imi-
tation whisky.
There seems to be ground for
the report that Secretary of Agri-
culture Wilson is quietly trying to
secure the removal of DR.. Wiley
Secretary Wilson was all right
when he was part of the Roose-
welt administration. The pure
food law was one of the Roose
welt policies. Under the inspire
ton of Mr.. Roosevelt's stron
personality, Secretary Wilsc
helped to enforce the spirit of tt
act.
Under the present administr,
ton there has been a marke
change in the spirit of the entil
agricultural department. So ia
as this department has to do wit
the enforcement of the pure foo
law, more is heard every day o
.'Dr. Wiley's too strict and toe
technical interpretations and rul
ings." Minor officials who dis
agree with DR.. Wiley are encour
aged to carry out their ideas. an
DIR. Wiley has been made to fee
that he no longer has the suppori
of the secretary of agriculture o.
of the white house.
All these facts are we'll know
to members of the state food com
missions, many of whom will bt
present as delegates at the con
vention of the national associa
ton of dairy and food depart
ments which opens at Denver to
morrow. The state authorize!
are watching with great concern
Ito see if the pure food law is t.
be upheld by genuine enforce
ment, or whether it is to become
the prey to politics and to go thu
way of other Roosevelt poll
lcies."

BOY SEES BROTHER DROWN:
GOES TO BED WITHOUT
TELLING MOTHER

SEATTLE, Aug. 20. - After
seeing his brother sink from
sight beneath the surface of
Lake Union Saturday afternoon
Elmer Johnson, years of age,
went home and, frightened speech

him to bed without telling her
anything about the drowning.
Rudolph Williams, about the same
age, who was with the Johnson
boys, also went to his home with
out telling of the drowning and
yesterday morning for time de-
MED any knowledge of it.
Shortly after 9 o'clock yester-
day morning the body of Leonard
Johnson, years of age. was drag
ged from Lake Union near the
Plymouth laundry, under which
the boys had been playing. 1t
was not until after the body had
! been found that the two boys with
5-year-old Leonard told what had
happened.

of DR.. H. w. Wiley will
be prepared for the effort which
is to be made at the pure food
convention to get his scalp. The
enemies of the pure food law are
engaged in a continued campaign
to get rid of the author of that
law.
Ever since the pure food law
was passed, the powerful interests
which profit by selling embalmed
and adulterated foods have been
trying to defeat the law by Grip
ping its administration. AS DR..
Wiley, in his position as chief
chemist, is chiefly responsible for
technical interpretations of the
law, the opposition has been en-
gagged in trying first to Sur
round" DR.. Wiley, and second to
get his scalp. The creation of the
so-called Remsen board was one
step in the campaign to Sur
round"
The purpose of the Remsen
board was to create a board of ap-
peal which would overturn the
strict Wiley rulings, and stretch
the law so as to make it bear less
heavily on makers of adulterated
and embalmed food.
The first big stroke of the Rem
sen board was the so-called "ben-
zoate of soda decision" DR.. Wiley
after exhaustive experiments, con-
cluded that benzoate of soda was
harmful when used to preserve
meats and vegetables. The Rem
sen board concluded to overrule
DR.. Wiley, and, In order to do IT.

ment, they promulgated the order
On the third of March last. The
order was signed by Secretary
Cortelyou, Secretary Wilson and
Secretary Straus.
1t was some time before the
matter came to the attention oil
the consuming public, though the
packing interests were Informed
at once.
The rectifying interests are also
very antagonistic to DR.. Wiley
They feel that he is chiefly respon.
sible for the sections in the pure
food law which demand that imi.
tation whisky be so marked. They
