The Republican insurgents repre-
sent voting legions, and these coull
not be read out of the party by any
pronnneiamento. They see nothing
in their proposals that conflicts with
Repubicanism, the definition oil
which ii elastic and variable because
new issue constantly arise and new
positions have to be taken. There is
no question of loyalty" involved
the existing differences over the tar
if, the railroad bill. postal banks,
etc, are intellectual and tempera
mental If some insurgents are too
radical, or too suspicious, or too i'm
patient, they will be outyoted and
out-weighed by the majority. But
their zeal is not criminal; it does
not make traitors of them.
Parties are weakened and destroyed
not so much by insurgency as by
bourbonism and tyranny Minorities
have rights, and they gain conces
sions by fighting for their opinions
within the party. If government by
discussion" is good for the country
It is also good for the party, Earnest
controversy over bills and platforms
cannot fail to improve party policies
and legislation enlbodying party
pledges.
Thr Republican party is not
.nenaced by tie insu@gent movement,
and there is neither occasion for nor
possibility Of any reading out of

In this way meateating animals para

people say, Nine tailors make man.
This ancient adage Is said to have had
its origin as follows
Nine tailors were merrily stitching
when q poor beggar passed their shop,
impIoring charity Of the busy workers.
Straightway those kind tailors opened
a subscription list. Each contributed
something, and the money thus collect
cd, which amounted to very respec-
table sum, was handed over to the beg.

fell upon his knees. You nine tailors. "

DEMANDS A SQUARE DEAL"
Or. Wiley Tells Food Manufacturers
People Must Have Proper
Weight In Packages.

Washingt0n.~-Every precaution will
be taken by the federal government
through the board of food and drug
Inspection Of the department OF agri.
culture, to see that exact justice Is
given TO the public regarding the
weight or volume of foods or drugs
purchased.
This intention was clearly indicated
by Dr. Harvey w. Wiley, chairman OF
the board of food aud drug inspection,
In addressing manufacturers and job.
bers of food products.
The manufacturers were given a
hearing to determine IL, as alleged, the
weights or volume of package OF
foods or drugs has been found lower
than that claimed on the labels,
Charges have been made from time to
time that the law has been violated.
I'VE do not expect absolute acc,lr-
acy in the weight or volume of a
package OF foods or drugs entering
into interstate commerce" declared
DR.. Wiley, but what we demand is
that there shall be only reasonable
degree of variation, so that the public
shall get what 1t pays for.
ut must not be altogether in the
direction OF the manufacturer. If the
manufactures errs at all, why not err
in favor Of the purchaser by giving
him little over, instead of short
weight?"
Testimony was given by f. j. Pig.
gott of Chicago, representing manu-.
facturers OF cheese in that city, to the
effect that because the dealers held
the manufacturers responsible for
"shrinkage" their business was In a
