THE test of republicanism should be

THE test of republicanism should be
the platform adopted at the last ma
tional convention. A man who cannot
stand on that platform and defend the
principles annunciated therein, has no
right to claim membership to that
party. And men who oppose carrying
into effect the pledges made to the
country in that platform are not repub-
lican and should be turned down hard
when they ask for the support of that
party. Men may differ as to the pro-
cedure of carrying into effect party
promise, but there is only one course to
be pursued by honest, loyal republicans,
and that is the fulfllment of all prom
ises made the people President Taft,
as far as lays in his power, is striving
to fulfill all promises made, and the op-
position to him and the redeeming of
pledges is inspired by personal opposi-
ton to the president by men who would
defeat their party to accomplish per-
sonal ends. Watertown Leader.

ONE of the most important decisions
rendered in any court in the United
States affecting the right of the people
to protect themselves against fraud by
manufacturers of food products, was
given when the Wisconsin Supreme
court sustained every contention made
by the state. The case was bitterly
contested for two years, backed by the
Standard Oil influences, the active de-
PENDANTS being the Corn Products Re-
fining company, with headquarters at
26 Broadway, New York. The cases
were brought by the dairy and food
commissioner for the sale as ''corn
syrup" of mixture composed of more
than rs per cent of glucose and less
than 25 per cent of cane syrup in one
case, and of refiners' syrup in the other
case, in violation of chapter 557, of the
laws of 1907, which requires such a
mixture to be labeled and sold as ''glu-
cose favored with cane SYRUP or glu-
cose favored with refiners syrup as the
case may be. The law under which
the defendants were prosecuted forbids
the sale of articles of food without a
proper labelling as prescribed so that
the purchaser may. know the real ma
ture of the article.

A Better Play Never in the City.

Eugene Moore invites us to take
Jaunt with him to the mountains of
eastern Tennessee. It's pleasant trip

oaks, up to the pines, to the s'Skyland'

Lookout lifting it's head above the sea

waged one of the most terrific battles
of the rebellion. In another direction
we see the little old schoolhouse of
Shell Creek, where Gladness has been
learning her three RS and dotted
here and there on the mountain sides
are the cabins of the inountaineers, the
most pretentious one being the home
of Gladness. The Lees occupy almost
the entire county and are all powerful.
They are strange people. holding very
little communication with the world be-
low, content with the bare necessities
of life. Gladness had never been even
to the foot of those hills, never seen
beyond the mists which enveloped her
mountain home, and, until the new
schoolmaster had come to Shell Creek,
she lived life of drudgery and dark
ness, when Richard Clay, the young
schoolmaster, came and told her the
wonderful stories of the world below
and beyond, she listened with awe, de-
voured all he told and hungered for
more knowledge, and, when it came
time for the schoolmaster to go away,
she awoke to the fact that there never
was such man, there was no one half
so good, he had made her see all that
was beautiful in the world, and she
loved him and was willing to follow
him to the end of the world. The love
of the schoolmaster for his pupil was
no less than hers, and Eugene Moore,
in his beautiful play, ''The Tiger and
the Lamb" with kindly hand has
guided the two lovers down the tortu-
Gus mountain sides. threatened by
death on every hand, into the smiling
valley of life. Take jaunt with Mr.
