FAREWELL TO WILEY
Amalgamated Associations of Ameri-
can Adulterators Hold Big Banquet.

can AdulteratorS rold Big banquet.
The process of cleansing Washing
ton of its useful officials goes mer-
rily onward Since the resignation
of Dr. Wiley there has been a con
tinual and swelling tide of rejoicing.
Last night, at the Grafters Hotel,
the departure of DR.. Wiley was com
memorated by a large banquet, UNI
der the auspices of the Amalgamated
Associations of American Adultera-
tors. This is a powerful organiza-
ton, and includes, not only adulter-
ators of food, but adulterators as well
of politics, of logic, or oratory, of
patriotism and of other well known
American products.
The POSTMASTER of the banquet
was Mr.. J. Lobbywell, who is des-
cended from one of the famous Con
necticut makers of wooden nutmegs
He was very felictous in his re-
marks, revealing a rare idealism He
said the retirement of DR.. Wiley left
nothing to be desired by those who
believed that no nation could long
survive on honest products.
The principal speaker of the even
ing was Mr. Ben Zoate Killam, who
is not only one of the largest can
ners of the country, but who is so
good to his family that he doesn't
even feed them on his own products.
He said in part.
There is no man in my beloved
United States who is more in favor
of pure food than am, but-and
when | qualify | want it understood
that am an authority on this sub
ject-but pure food at the present
stage of our development is imprac-
ticable and is demanded only by idle
| dreamers and incendiary agitators
who want to tear down our indus
| tries. know for a certainty that
many of our producers, If compelled
to put out products that contained no
poison, would have to sell their art
collections. educate their daughters
at the public schools and perhaps
even cut down their champagne bills.
This, manifestly, would be ruinous
to both artists and champagne deal
ers. II must be understood that
many sacrifices are necessary II pro.
gress is to continue and, therefore,
] call upon all good citizens who find
themselves poisoned to remember
that they are helping to support a
| great industry"
Mr.. Killam was received with
great applause and was followed by
Mr. Storage Plant, who said in part
Il look upon this gala occasion as
a grand homecoming. For the past
few years the members Of this organ
ization have received but a scanty
welcome in this our beloved nations
capital but am glad to say that
the clouds are rolling by. ! look fol
an immediate revival of industry and
venture to predict that, within a
few years, adulteration will have
been so perfected that we shall al
be rolling in profits and thus reflect
great credit upon the staunch ant
rugged common sense of our vast do

jawed mountaineer, who proceeded in
leisurely fashion to make a time ex-
posture.
Next day Mr.. Hills secretary
glanced his eyes over the picture and
noted with some concern that the
familiar figure of his employer was
missing from the group. He de-
manded to know why the photo
grapher had made such a blunder.
"Haw, haw!" laughed the Western

Jim Hill Didn't Count.

Accompanied by his secretary and
certain railroad representatives..

West TO inspect new trunk line.
When their private car had been side.

some special feat of engineering
adroitness which there obtained.
A photographer from n near camp,
seeming a generous fee, soon had the
party lined up against the rocks, Mr.

the group and his secretary at the
left according to the arrangements

By THEODORE ROOSEVELT:

r INCOLN saw into the future with
l. the prophetic imagination usual
ly vouchsafed only to the poet
and the seer. He had in him all the
lift toward greatness of the visionary,
without any of the visionary's fanati-
cism or egotism, without any of the
visionary's narrow jealousy of the
practical man and inability to strive
in practical fashion for the realization
of an ideal. He had the practical
mans hard common sense and will
ingness to adapt means to ends, but
there was in him none of that NOR
bid growth of mind and soul which
blinds so many practical men to the
higher things of life. No more practi
cal man ever lived than this homely
backwoods idealist, but he had moth
ing in common with those practical
men whose consciences are warped UNI

good and evil. fail to understand that

in the world of business or of politics,

"The upshOt Of it all was" continued
the doctor, that Miss Todd became

believed to have been engaged-at least
there had been an understanding be-

He was sensitive and morbid, and she

fall of 1912.

Episcopal marriage service was used
here, and old Judge Browne, hearing
the groom promise to endow his wife
with all his worldly goods exclaimed
as soon as the ceremony was over,
