DR.. Wiley. the Government pure food
expert, has beaten his detractors, who
were the food adulterators that had been
exposed by him. These parties tried BY
every corrupt means in their power to
have DIR. Wiley dismissed from Govern.
ment service. but President Taft sustained
the chemist, and it is now probable that
q number of those in the Government
service who favored the fraudulent food
concerns and did everything in their
power to discredit DIR. Wiley. will have
to walk the plank. This is one instance
wherein the popular demand of the
people was so strong that the powers that
be were compelled to heed it. and DR..
Wiley's enemies did not ''get his scalp"

George R. Gather tried to induce the

tion to incorporate plank in the plat
form, advocating the commission form
of government, but this was entirely too
progressive measure for the old line

advocate the passage of general law
which would enable the voters of the

so desire and should express their prefer.
ence by majority vote, to adopt the
commission form of government, instead
of the present form under which they are
