WILLIAM J. MOXLEY.
Manufacturer of
FINE BUTTERINE.

Now butter comes froma COW; but
terine comes from a factory. Butter
inc is made of hog-fat, beef-fat, and
cotton seed oil, and its color is white.
AS to oleomargarine, this combination
has its wholesome and proper place
in the world; but put little chemi-
cal coloring matter in it, and it looks
like butter. And it can be sold very
much cheaper. OF course, it's the
old story of the pure-food fight again.
Many men became very rich making
oleomargarine, coloring it yellow,
and selling it as butter. The United
States government stopped that by
putting a prohibitive tax of ten cents
a pound on butterine or Oleo artifi-
cially colored to look like butter. The
butterine makers could continue to
sell their product in its original white
state to such persons as wished to
buy butterine, but they were COMPEL
ed to stop selling butterine colored
yellow to persons who wished to buy
butter.
They had to stop, or else find some
way of defeating or evading the law.
Many did this successfully. Mr.. Mox-
ley tried to evade the law by intro
ducing a material called palm-oil,
which the government authorities de-
scribed as rancid, of bad taste and
smell and considered by this. office
wholly unfit for use in oleomargar-
ine." Further, the treasury depart
ment said: ''The finished product
would in appearance be an imitation
or semblance of butter" In the sub
sequent action, Monkey was assessed
a fine of S2S, 499. so Che had sold near
ly 5000 pounds of oleo colored to
look like butter.) This fine Monkey
paid to the United States government
under protest.

''No sixth district farmer who stops
to reason will care to 90 on record on
Feb. LIST in opposition to the policy
which has brought prosperity to him.
Everything the farmer produces is
protected. "-Vedette.
Here is a cosmic cuckle bur the
Republicans are trying to transplant
into the farmers brain which is far
more dangerous than the perennial
weed is to his grain.
Simply because the worlds market
(the market in which you are forced
to SELL happens to be good for the
farmer at present, the republican
politicians desire to take the credit
for it, but they will not permit you to
buy in a like market, no. You must
buy in a closed and artificially infla-
ted market for the benefit of the tar
iff barons and the trusts who furnish
the Republicans campaign funds, at
your expense. The policy which has
made the farmer prosperous is the
policy of producing what the world
wants and selling it on the worlds
market. Nothing which sells by rea-
son of an export price could possibly
be protected by an import tariff. No
tariff ever made a market for an adj
ditional bushel of grain or pound of
pork. No less a parsonage than the
late James G. Blaine has told you so,
and yet he was wise enough to know
that, to quote Mark Antony, he only
told you "that which you yourselves
do know. "-Dade Co. Advocate.

PINK RICE AGAINST
THE MACHINE
Shows up the Evils of the Tariff
System and Takes Hot Shot
at Cannon.


II. P. Rice, of Fl. Scott, a lifelong
staunch Republican, of Kansas, for
merly associated with his father in
publishing the Fl. Scott Tribune, a
leading Republican paper of that
state, writes an open letter to the
Tribune-Monitor of Fl. Scott, oppoS-
ing the denomination of Mr.. Scott for
Congress. He shows up the growing
evils of the tariff, charges the Repub-
lican party is engaged in building up
monopolies and trusts to rob the peo-
pie and takes the following hot shot
at Cannon:
"a month or so ago Mr.. Cannon
made a speech before the Knife and
Fork club at Kansas City, A few
days before he made this speech, a
special election was held in Chicago,
in a district made up of four cr five
of the tough wards in that city. One
VIM. J. Monkey, a Stand-patter, had
been elected and the grizzly old
speaker boaSted of this man Monkeys
election in great fashion as follows:
'Thank God, in the great city OF
Chicago we recently had an election
for successor for Senator Lorimer.
The Republican organization put a
man in nomination. The Democratic
organization put man in nomination
and then a man who called himself
an insurgent Republican, and made
his platform on which he ran against
boSsism, and pledged if elected he
would Join the insurgents from Iowa
and elsewhere and wage war upon
the speaker of the house, and upon
the Republican maiority-that was
his platform. 1t got pretty hot Mr..
Lloyd, at the head of your congress
Sional committee, went over. Sena-
tor Shively, of Indiana, was support
ing the Democratic candidate, and the
newspaper press said; "Wait and
see how this wicked majority of Re-
publicans that passed that bill will be
rebuked." Notwithstanding tn a I
newspaper comment, when voting
day came, the Republican candidate
received almost as many votes as
both the Democratic candidate and
the self-styled inSurgent candidate.
Thank God"
1t will be seen that Mr.. Cannon
boosted of this man Monkeys election
as an ideal Republican candidate, He
was really glad because he had JUS
had another congressman put under
his thumb. But who is this boaSteC
new member of congress? Here is
brief note printed by Collier Weekly
which shows who and what kind o.
a man Monkey is:
