Bar Harbor, State commissioner of la
Dor and industry, also II. M Donnelly
of Augusta, deputy factory inspector
called for speculation among Eastport
Gamers of American sardines, as the
above two officials have been in this
section of the State for some days past
making investigations over charges
made by certain parties that the labor
laws were being violated and that child
labor was being employed in some
eastern Maine sardine canning plants
1t had been stated here after their
leaving that local conditions had been
found satisfactory, but this did not
seem to be correct, for several indict-
ments were reported to have been Sc
cured Wednesday and a hearing OF
some packers of fish called for later
in the week when State Officials Eddy
and Donnelly would be here to give
their story to the local judge. If suf-
ficient evidence should be presented
the cases will come up at Machias in
January.
During the past 35 years that sar-
dimes have been canned in this city,
it is stated that very little fault has
ever been found by the government
against Eastport packers regarding
,their many thousand employees who are
on duty for about seven months of
the year. The present investigation by
the State officials has aroused much
interest not only in Eastport, but all
the Washington county coast towns
where sardines are put up and the re-
suit of the hearing will be closely
watched.

STATE HOUSE CHAT
Charities and Corrections Sub
jects at Bangor Meeting
State Prison and Frank
lin Jail Report-Notes
Next meeting of the Governor and
Council, 10 A. NJ, Wednesday, Oct. %.

The report of the inspectors who
have been attending the fairs OF the
state under the Pure Food department
is especially interesting now that the
season of fairs in Maine is over. I'm
der the direction of A. M. G. Soule,
chief of the State Bureau of Inspec-
ton, three inspectors have been at
tending the fairs, not one being missed
by these men. The inspectors were: C.
o. Brown Of Orono, A. B. Andrews Of
Auburn, and f. l.. Palmer of Port
land.
The especial duty of these inspectors
was to see that part eight Of the laws
regulating the sale of agricultural
seeds, feeding stuffs, fertilizers, drugs,
foods. fungicides and insecticides, was
carried out by the dealers in foods at
the fairs. This part of the law reads:
IF in the manufacture, sale, distribu--
ton, transportation or in the offering
Or exposing for sale. distribution or
transportation 1t (food) is not at all
times securely protected from filth,
flies, dust or other contamination, or
other unclean, unhealthful or unsani-
tary conditions" and If this protection
is not given to the food sold at the
fairs the law is violated.
Inspector C. o. Brown was at the
department of agriculture Friday af-
ternoon for a conference with Chief
Inspector A. NJ. G. Soule, having just
returned from the Topsham fair. Mr.
Brown has attended IL fairs this fall
in the capacity of inspector. He stated
that he found nearly all the fair Off
cials willing to cooperate with the
department in the matter of enforcing
/ the law.
Chief Soule of the bureau stated that
most Of the dealers dispensing food
| showed a willingness to comply with
the law, and stated that the matter
of food protection is especially i'm
portant at this time because it is gen.
orally known that diseases are COM
| municated by flies.
