vENiENcED BY ISSUANCE OF
SILLY REGULATIONS.

BOSTON. Jan. 1.-THE Traveller
says editorially regarding the reported
retirement of Dr Wiley from The head
OF the pure food branch department
OF agriculture:
President Roosevelt and Score.
tary Wilson have apparently wax
ened up TO the fact that Or. Wiley
has been building up machine TO
influence public sentiment and is
~ apidly getting into position
ish Where his acts, no matter how
lar.injust, cannot be overruled. thus
making himself greater than the
president OF the United States or
the secretary OF agriculture. whose
subordinate he is.
This pure food propaganda has
been a great thing for the public,
which has been taught the dan
gers OF adulteration. but this re-
suit could have been accomplished
equally well without using the
method OF issuing silly regulations
today TO repeal them tomorrow,
\ until the food manufacturers never
NEW whether they were afoot or
IN horseback. and have been put
millions OF dollars OF needless
Expense without doing the people
any particular good

Postal Employees, Numbering 5000,
Walk Out When Deputies
Fall to Act.

Paris, May 1.-THE chamber Of
deputies after stormy session of four
hours adjourned the debate on the in
terpellations on the postal situation
until tomorrow. The response of the
postal employees was quick and de-
cisive. Within half an hour the fed
eral committee had issued an order
for a general strike, and the railway
mail clerks walked out in body.
An hour later meeting of 5000
postal employees at the Hippodrome
took up the gage of battle and unani-
mously voted to strike. No great en-
thusiasm was shown, but determine
ton and resolution to force the hand
of the government were apparent.
"The government is playing for
time; we must not be caught mapping"
was the spirit of the meeting az ex-
pressed by Pauron, dismissed post
man and one of the most active or
ganizers of the movement.
