WASHINGTON, D. ca case in
volving e question whether butter
containing &c per cent or more of wa
ter is adulterated and is subject to
tax of 10 cents pound under the act
of 1902, is to be reviewed by the SUI
preme court.

Minnesota and the Eighth circuit
court of appeals directed refund to
the Tilden company of money paid
under protest as tax upon butter
containing more than 16 per cent of

luton under which the tax was col
lected was not passed on by the lower
courts.

DID NOT PART FRIENDS

Prohibition commissioner Haynes
appeared before the appropriations
committee of the house recently and
asked for $4,000, 900 for the coming
year to enforce prohibition. Repre-
sentative Gallivan talked pretty plain
ly to Mr. Haynes about his failure to
prohibit and the gigantic use of
money, telling him that he had spent
$90O00,OO0 last year and had asked
for $350,000 more, which he did not
get. Haynes said that the big news
papers were spreading propaganda
about him, but Gallivan said he was
spending $90,O00,OO0 a year trying to
prohibit it and did not succeed, where
as, if wines and beers were allowed
the revenue on them would amount to
a billion year and would pay the
national debt in twenty years. The
two gentlemen did not part as friends.
