S ENEMIES OF PURE FOOD LAW Famous Chemist Believes the Health l of the Nation Demands Election of the Democratic. Ticket. By HARVEY W. WILEY. (Former Chief Chemist of the U. S. t Department of Agriculture.) Il My' appeal Is chiefy to those who, like myself, have been lifelong Repub ligans. I believe that .no kind of an F aaministration is going to' ruin the country. I have, a high personal re- t gard for each one of tfie candidates for president and vice-presideent on all the tickets. All the political platforms 1 are mainly sound and all promise ef fort in behalf of the whole people. My: choice is not based on a platform. It: was etermined by my impressions of t the real attitude of the candidates re- 8 specting the public welfare. We are C creatures of heredity and environ- E ment. In .our attitude towards great public questions we are almost alto gether creatures of environment. What two men are by environment least likely to be swayed by special interests and most likely to be guided I by devotion to public welfare? Two of the candidates have already been tried in the presidential chair and we kuow by experience what may be e peeted if either of' them resume his former seat on March 4, 1913. Mr. Roosevelt by reason of his attitude to wards the food and drug act aban doned the consumers of the .country to the rapacity of a few mercenary manufacturers.. Tinder authority of congress I had carried. qn extensive experiments with my so-called poison l squad and found that .certain sub stances, viz., benzoic compounds, sul phurous -compouds and sulphate of copper (blue stone), were infurious to health. The law conferred upon me, as chief of 'the bureau of chemistry, the duty of acting as a grand jury and deter-: mining-wh'ether foods and drugs were adulterated- or misbranded. Instead of appealing from my de.cisions to the -curts ,As the- law requires, the users of these poisons kppealed to Prestdent Roosevelt. He not only listened to them, but he' abrogated the plain pro 'visions of the law, appointed a board 'not'contemplated by the -law, and dl 'reted that these predatory interests might continue their attacks on the health of the people until this board,1 unknown to the law, should decide otherwise. Cab. we safely trust the campaign for- public health to Mr. Roosevelt? I cannot believe that to be the proper course. Mr. Taft inherited this ex ceedingly bad ~ condition 'of affairs from his prededessor and 'has not only continued this Illegal board un der whose patronage adulterators are still poisoning the people, but he did worse. In the matter of the adultera tion of distilled beverages in which Roosevelt upheld the legally consti tuted authorities, 'Mr. Taft reversed that policy and threw the mighty weight of the executive office to the support of the worst lot of adirltera tors that eve'r disgraced a country. Mr.. Wilson and Mr. Marshall by! their strenuou~s effortfin behalf of the food laws of their respective states, have given a positive promise. to end such- a threatening state of' affairs. ] They will- support. to the -utrhost the oficis under the law who are trying to protedt the public health and will make short shrift of those who have brought about these present unbeara-i ble conditions. . Wilson and Marshall by their educa, tion and environment are free from' bias in favor of predatory' -Interests I and ar'e inspired by true patriotic zeal in behalf of public welfare. I -support the Democratic nominees in. full knowledge that many of the prominent Democrats in congress have been In full sympathy withlethe paraly-1 sis of the food law in behalf of the - unhdly doll~ar. But when the Demo- V eratic president . and vice-president' lend the ald of their powerful sympa-3 thy in behalf of. the public health -hose of-tkeir own' part3' not 'in sym pathy with them jill be rolbed 'of their power for evil. If Roosevelt or 'raft be chosen the soldiers of fraud and adullterafdonl will b'e impregnably e'ntrenched for another fonr years and ensoates, sulphites and adulterated; icoholic' beveridges will have a new lease of, life. I believe also that President Wilson will renovate the department of agri culture, reeking, as it has been for': the past twer,'e year-s, with scandals; and favoritism. Hie will see to It that'] the' bureau-Of animal industry will protect the public health instead of the efforts of the packers to sell dis eased meats under the deceptive phrase *"U. S.

AXING POOR MAN'S COAT OFF HIS BACK oncrete Illustration of What -a Re publican Tariff Really Means Causes Workers to Think. Concrete examples. of how a pro eetive tariff operates are causing the rorking man, the "poor man," to do a pt of ~thinking nowadays. He is be inning to understand whether it is. ot about time to call a halt on the tepublican practice of taxing the coat if his back and threatening him with he loss of his shirt and his socks If e does not submit. All through the present tariff, law, assed by a Republican cong-ress and ndorsed by a Republican President .s THE BEST TARIFF BILL EVER 'ASSED, are to be found discrimina ions, the higher duty on the cheaper rticle. the lower on the- shoulders if those least able to bear It the great r burden of the protective system. -ere are some illustrations: The cheapest. wool blankets bear a luty of 165.42 per cent.; the dearest, .04.55 per cent. Flannels, not more than 40 eents a >ound, are taxed at 143.67 per cent.; ner 70 cents a -pound, 76.37 per cent. Wool plushes, cheapest. 141.75 per ent.; dearest, 95.33 per cent. Knit fabrics, cheapest, 141 per cent; learest, 95.53 per cent. Stockings, worth from $1 to $1.50 dozen, 76.37 per cent.; from $2 to 53, 59 per cent.

Buckles, cheapest, 77-.48 per .cent; - dearest, 26.3 per cent. Uncut diamonds bear a 10 per cent. ty; imitation diamonds, 20 per cent.

Re luced to simplest termxs. they mean .hat the poor man is taxed higher than :he rich mian. The Third .Term candidate's favor te reply to the telling, unanswerable trguments of Gov. Wilson is that the atter's'opinions are based ".not on ac ui knowledge and 'experience but by c eadng musty books on political conomy." The Colonel himself at ao :ender age was ps.t at har~d labor! ' t; is not often that a man whose whole ife has been giv~n up to politi-cs and fieholdng gets as horny-handed as .fr. Rosevelt in the ranks .of labor ud bigh finance!. Wonder if Emerson was gazing upon SMoose calf when, several decades - igo, he wrote: 'I am the owner of the sphere, )f the seven stars and the solar year." President Taft congratulates the epublcans of Maine on what Chair nan Hilles describes-as "an old-fash oned victory." Another such and vermont and Rhole Island would go emocratic In November. The card-stackinlg at Armageddon 3 ;oes. merrily on. Eight Taft electors -' n Missouri announce that if elected ,hey fill vote for the Third Term can lidate.
