testing Townsend's cream discovered
It contained only 6 per cent. butter
fat, 2 per cent. under the amount re-
quired by law.
Townsend then appealed to Dairy
Inspector Clem to test the cream he
had been receiving from Hamilton.
Glenn did so and discovered 1t con-
tanned IL per cent and not 18 per cent.

This explained why the ice cream did
not come up above the butter fat min
imum standard. Being technically
guilty Townsend pleaded to that ef-
feet today and was fined $40 and costs.
His ice cream was found to be per-
fectly pure. Glenn communicated with
the Hamilton company after making
his test and was informed that the
cream sent to Townsend tested Is per
cent. butter fat as guaranteed. Glenn
did not inform the company what his
test had revealed.
Glenn Thistlethwaite, local drug
gist. is also charged with selling ice
cream containing only per cent. but

Progressive Principles Traduced State,
Avis, Referring To Latest Polit-
icaI Scheme

The mockery, as well as treachery to
Progressive principles, involved in the
proposed public reconciliation between
Theodore Roosevelt and William How
ard Taft, which was been planned as a
spectacular campaign aid TO Candidate
Hughes, is emphasized in statement
just issued by William II. Avis, Pro-
gressive leader of Connecticut.
Mr.. Avis, one time political intimate
of Mr. Roosevelt and now an ardent
supporter of President Wilson, calls
the attention of Progressives through
out the country to a letter written to
him by Roosevelt on May 8, 1913, which
is contrasted with Roosevelt's present
affiliation with Taft, Root, Smoot, Pen
rose, Crane, Canon, Barnes, Guggen-
helm, and other Republican bosses in
support of Mr.. Hughes. In this letter,
now made public for the first time, Mr..
Roosevelt wrote in part as follows:
"The Progressive party stands today
precisely where the Republican party
stood in the days of Lincoln, when it
was the progressive party of the ma.
ton. 1t is as idle to talk Of our ANAL
gamating with either of the old party
machines as it would have been to
talk of Lincoln amalgamating with
Bourbon democrats or the cotton
wings of their day. We stand abso-
lutely for our platform; we believe in
applying the principles Of that plat
form to party management as well as
to the government. There is no place
