VERDICT OF DR. WILEYS.
CHICKEN JURY.

When Dr. Harvey ". Wiley chief Of
the Bureau Of Chemistry, started TO
explore the effects Of certain preserva-
tives used in food products on the
human system, and "a do so through
a poison squad OF young men, there
was considerable merriment at his ex-
Uense. Nevertheless. the revelations
made through this means have worked
a revolution IN national and State legjs-
latiou with respect TO food and drugs
Now comes the chicken jury of DR.,
Wiley. and while the idea may be taken
lightly in some quarters, it Is not I'M
likely that It viii be instrumental in
working as large q change IN the treat
ment Of cold storage articles as the
Investigations a. to preservatives nave
brought about and are bringing about
in preventing their improper Use in
foods improper labelling, and other
abuses.
DR.. Wiley's Jury on chickens ras
found that there IS so little differenoa
between chickens that have been IN
storage three months and fresh chickens
that one cannot be detected from the
other. But as between fresh chickens
and chickens that have been IN storage
nine months, nearly everyone Is able TO
detect the difference. When II comes
to chickens that have been IN storage
a year. everyone Is able to distinguish
between them
Dr.. Wiley told the Senate Committee
on Manufactures that the senses OF
taste and smell had largely TO be relied
On in determining what WIS good and
what was not But the average person
viii doubtless feel that in view Of what
the chicken jury" has fond some
further protection Is needed Those
findings constitute a potent argument
for some such legislation IS Is pro
posed by the Lodge bill, which world
provide that food articles held for more
than one year in cold storage should
be deemed adulterated and requiring
them 10 be so labeled as TO show thj
dates Of their reception into cold
storage. Indeed. II would look, IN the
! light OF what the poultry jury has
/ learned. as If the bill were too lenieur
I In point Of time. and as If the limit
Of a year named might well be short
/ eued 70 uire months + the health O
/ The pubTfc Is 10 be properly protected
At least, II Is pretty clear that sucl
I light Is being shed on the cold stors q

ness cannot much longer be avoided.

DEATH OF GEN. EDWARD
PORTER ALEXANDER

Announcement Is made from Sa-
vaunah OF the death there OF Gen I'd
ward Porter Alexander. To those
familiar with the annals OF the civil
war. II needs no additional statement
TO recall 70 their minds that his death
removes one of the most. interesting
figures Of the strife between the
States The list Of men who, on either
side in that great conflict, held gen
eral rank is becoming smaller and
smaller with each passing year Gen
eraI Alexauder's death leaves a large
zap among the surviving leaders OF the
Southern armies. Not only was he "a
brilliant soldier, but he was one Of the
foremost writer's on the subject of the
war. and bis contributions TO the litera-
ture Of that epoch have been valuable
Aside from this, he was prominent IN
the management OF Southern railroads
General Alexander was native of
Georgia and a graduate of West Point
He was a second lieutenant in the en-
rineers until 1861. He entered the Con
federate service as captain of engineers,
was on the staff of General Beauregard
at Bull Run. and was chief Of ordnance
of the Confederate Army Of Northern
Virginia until November, 1852. He was
chief of artillery TO General Longstreet
when the war closed
Few officers in either army saw more
constant and harder service than Gen
eraI Alexander. At Gettysburg he was
one Of the central figures on the Con
federate side. He planted and directed
the artillery Of Longstreet's corps
which. by a terrific bombardment OF
the Union lines. paved the way for
/ Pickett's magnificent charge a charge
doomed to defeat from the first, bu;
which Alexander did all possible %
make successful. This was but one ii
J his many important services as a
trained artillery officer and engineer
/ General Alexander's critical studies
Of the campaigns IN which he partici
pated are of value not alone to the
/ general reader. but to the military stu
dent. He was one Of the compare
lively few participants in the great
conflict who was able to criticise i'm
partially the conduct Of Northern and
Southern armies.

PEOPLE ENTITLED TO KNOW

Manufacturers Of foods. drugs. and
beverages sold in packages are I'M
doubtedIy right Ia their contention,
made before the House District Com
mittee, that 1t would be difficult for
them to obey the proposed law requir-
ing each package to show. by plainly
printed label. how much IT contains
This does not. however. affect the JUS
tice OF the theory that the buyer Is
entitled To lust that information. While
it would be hard for the manufacturers
10 obey such a law. 1t would not be i'm
possible, and the rights Of the CON
sumner are Of SO much greater import
ance than the convenience OF the pro
ducer that the latter should be made TO
bear whatever burden the law wouI
impose
The manufactures assert that be
cause Of chemical changes which occur
IN many products after they are put
mp in package form, their future weight
cannot be guaranteed. For this reason
they say they could not be certain that
a package which they designate as
weighing one pound would weigh one
pound when purchased a few weeks OF
a few months later by the patron OF
the retailer

avoided by allowing for shrinkageg II

INDIANA DEMOCRATS DO

Indiana Democrats are showing

Of many Indiana pol ticiaus and TO the
much greater surprise of the country

combination of the friends of Governor

the situation, defeated the plans of
the Taggart element prevented the
nomination OF Taggart for the Senator

Of Kern for that office
Taggart and his friends were op-
POSED to the nomination by the conven-
tion OF a candidate for the Senate But
Governor Marshall was able TO muster
sufficient strength 10 induce the con
vention TO vote IN favor of making such
a noISination- This was the first defeat
for the Taggart element, and II was
followed by a crushing blow IN the
nomination Of Kern.
Nh. Kern was the Democratic
nominee for Vice President In 1905. As
the running mate Of William Jennings
Bryan he made a creditable campaign

probable that Mr. Kern can defeat
Senator Beveridge. for Indiana in these
later years has become a Republican
