P"R0GRESsWES TO
ORGANIZE STATE
LEAGUE ON FRIDAY
BOrah, Murdoch and Fowler to
Speak at Big Meeting
in Elizabeth.
@0

A Progressive Republican State
League will be organized at Elizabeth
next Friday night.
Essex -Progressives are arranging to
send a large delegation to the meeting
at which plans will be formulated for
the coming campaign.
The principal address will be made
by United States Senator Borah and
Representative Murdoch, insurgent Re-
publicans from the West.
Representative Charles w. Fowler. 1t
is expected. will be present. He is still
seeking the Endorsement of the Pro-
gressives for the United States sena-
torship. The Progressives' gubernato-
rial candidate. William P. Martin, will
also speak.
The holding of the convention in Eliz-
abeth is politically significant, because
it is the seat of the Kean-Fowler war.
United States senator John Kean n
Congressman Fowler both reside there.
The league will favor the popular cleo
ton of United States senators, a scheme
that Senator Kean is directly opposed
t Q.
The movement will have the effect of
increasing the chances of candidates for
the United States senatorship, who, like
former Governor Edward Casper Stokes
have chosen to go before the people in
the primaries. Former Governor
Franklin Murphy, whose candidacy for
the senate seat was formally announced
last week, has declared that he will not
test his popularity in the primary cam
paign. Neither will Senator o Kean,
who is a candidate for reelection.
If the Progressives should indorse
Representative Fowler or George l..
ReeordSthat course will be taken advan-
tage Of however.
Taken all in all the Friday night
meeting will be an important one. Rep
resentative Progressives from all Sec
lions of the State. will be present.

Buyers of human hair do a large

Recent Congress Held in Paris Ham.
pered by Private interests
Defines Whisky.

Paris.-Dr Edward P. Shaffter of
the United States department Of Agri-
culture, the American representative
who has been in attendance at the
international pure food congress here.
said after the closing session:
In spite of the most active lobby
ing of private interests, the result of
this congress will be of great benefit
the world over. received assurances
that this lobbying, although very ami
mated, would have no influence so far
as the purpose of the congress goes.
1t shows, however, that any interna-
tional effort to get pure food will
bring about the same kind of fighting
and lobbying as was experienced by
the congress at Washington during the
pure-food agitation.
Between 1900 and 1900 persons
attended the international congress
here. There were delegates from
Brazil, Uruguay and Chile and an off,
cial representative from China. who
will probably return to his country
and demand that pure rice shall not
be coated with paraffine.
THE work of the congress was to
establish standard of purity for food
products. This was arrived at by
tuted pure food. Thus, olive oil was
defined as oil extracted from the fruit
of the olive tree.

Paris.-Some sensation was caused
in the Rue d'Amsterdam by the es-
cape of an immense alligator which
was en- route to an establishment at
Neuilly. This had arrived by train in
a large box, which was loaded on
board a dorry outside the Saint-Lazare
station. The box, however, was badly
fastened, and when the lorry was set
in motion fell to the ground. In its
fall it was burst open. releasing the
saurin. At first the animal seemed
rather dazed by the electric light and
its general surroundings, but after hesi-
tating few moments, it started to
climb the Rue d'Amsterdam, causing
general terror among the passersby.

corner of the Rue d'Athenes, man

NEW PRODUCT IS VALUABLE
Resinit Well Adapted for Impregnat-

Resinft, a new product, is described

for many uses. 1t seems to be adapted
to a great variety of purposes 1t diff

resins, as we'll as from various arti-

crystalized carbolic acid and a 40 per
cent. solution Of formaldehyde is
heated with potash, soda, or other al
kali or neutral salt. The product is
a yellowish, mobile liquid, which is an
impure resinit with much water. and
is adapted for impregnating porous
substances, like wood and paper. to
render them hard and waterproof. Dis.

liquid of many possible applications.

The Pure Food Problem

The congress also succeeded in de-
lining whisky. 1t says whisky comes
from distillation of port prepared
by the standardization OF cereals bv
means of malt and then fermented.
Some of the commercial LOBBYISTS"
continued DR.. Shaffter, wanted the
congress to sanction the putting of
borax in butter for shipping, but the
congress was emphatically opposed to
this
THE congress demonstrated one
thing clearly, and that is that the
United States leads in the war m
adulterated foods. They would not
believe it when l told them that the
American government spends $4,000 .

all the inspectors of the various states
are fully working the cost will he

been agitated in Europe as it has been
in America" said the doctor. "The
congress had great educational value
in arousing public attention to the
question"

impressive. The middle court was

stone columns in it were more than

halls which remained were over forty

A still larger court extended on the
north side.
The approach to the palace led up
through a great mass of buildings to
a platform at a height of about sixty
feet above the plain. These buildings
served to defend the entrance as outer
