Address of the Legislative Oommittee of the Pennsylvania State Grange. The Legislative Committee of the Pennsylvania State Grange, P. of II., aware of the effort of the oleomarga rine manufacturers to effect the re peal of the restrictive law of 1885, after clue consideration, would respect fully report: That we regard any modification of the act of May 21, 1885, looking to the removal of its restrictions upon the manufacture or sale of counterfeit butter as injudic ious and wholly unwarranted. On the contrary, we would urge the more effective enforcement of the present law, not merely for the ad vantage of the dairy interest, one most important to the prosperity of the country, but for the sake of the preservation of the health of the whole community, than which there can be no more vital issue. The dairy interest may be not improperly regarded as the very foundation of good husbandry and agricultural pros perity. In it in this State is invested a larger amount of capital than in any other single industry, and it gives direct employment to a greater num bcr of people. While we do not ask for any espec ial favor under the law, we do demand that it shall be considered fairly and equitaDiy. Oleomargarine is an imitation and counterfeit of butter and is invariably palmed off on the consumer as butter. It is a fraud, pure and simple. It should be accorded no more pro tection under the law than counter feit money. In some respects bogus butter is even more dangerous to the public than bogus money, as has been shown by thorough investigation of the pro cesses of manufacture. Hon. Norman J. Coleman, U. S. Commissioner of Agriculture, ascer tained that over 40 different articles were used under 15 patents by the manufacture of imitation butters. Among the ingredients are lactic acid, boracic acid, salicylic acid, ben xoic acid, nitric acid and butyric acid. cottonseed oil, oleo, oil, fats of all animals, Urd, tallow, caul fat, glycer ine, annatto, steerine, etc. The resources of modern chemistry enable the manufacturers to render any animal fat or offal, no matter how rancid its condition, together with cottonseed oil, into a compound, which, in appearance, is difficult to distinguish from creamery butter, which deception is further carried out by the methods of packing and marketing which they adopt. It has also been demonstrated that in the proce:s of manufacture oleo margarine is not heated above 125, which is not sufficient to destroy anv disease germs the animal fats may contain, while the powerful acids used to purify and deodorize them are dangerous to human economy. Besides this the coloring matter now generally employed by large manufacturers is an analine dye called Methy's orange, a coal-tar color. Ac cording to eminent authorities, who were officially investigating this mat ter, another coal tar product, cheap and nasty, which is now being used extensively, where the laws still per mit the making of oleomargarine, is "paraphme wax, which, indigestible itself, has the dangerous property of coating the stomach and digestive organs, destroying their power of digesting anything." It therefore appears to us that the interests of the public will be best served, not by the repeal of the act of 1885, because of the allegation that it is inoperative or for any other pre text, but by the full and proper en forcement of that law; and we demand that the Legislature of 1895 provide by an appropriation means of such en forcement by the State authorities.

WASHINGTON. me Financial Plan of Secretary Carlisle Approvod..-B;il Amending In'oralate Com merco Likely to Past Iho Senate.. -No Tariff Legislation this Session.--Presi. dent and Family Back to the White House. Opposition to Free Ships.. -Opponents o nbui.ie 1 an vvoaK. From our Regular Correspondent. Washington, December 17. i8n.i Secretary Carlisle has every reason to feel proud of the result of the hear ings granted by the House committee on Banking and Currency, this week, on his plan for currency reform. His plan has not suffered by comparison with the plans and opinions of the prominent financiers who have ap peareu Delore the committee. On the contrary, ii has been most decidedly strengthened, and it is now the belief that the committee will shortly report to the House a bill, which, if noi precisely tne same as that sub niitted to the committee by Secretary Carlisle, will certainly be along the same or similar lines. It is hoped that the committee can report the currency bill before the holiday recess, in order mat me people may have an oppor runny to study it and express their views before the House takes it up iui iinui action. Many statements have been made as to how democrats will vote on this bill, but the most ol them are guesses Of course it is probable that the dem ocrats ol tne House will, with a very few exceptions, support the bill that will be reported by the Banking and Currency, but that they should wait until tne bill is reported before com mitting themselves is perfectly natural, four correspondent knows that the democratic Senators are much more favorably inclined towards the plan proposed by Secretaiy Carlisle than they have been reported to be, and that they are anxiously awaiting the action of the House, although the refusal of the Senate to change its rules, which was emphasized by the defeat by a vote of 3 1 to 24 of Senator Vests motion to take up his resolu tnns providing for cloture under cer tain conditions, has materially lessen ed the chances for getting a currency bill, or any other bill that is opposed by the republicans through the Senate. The vote on the bill amending the Interstate Commerce law so as to make freight pooling by railroads legal, which was this week passed by me nouse Dy a vote ot lOOto no was not governed by party politics In the vote for the bill the names of such prominent democrats are found as Black, of Illinois, (who, by the way, was this week unanimously confirmed as U. S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, a position to which he was nominated by President Cleve land without his knowledge) ; Catch- ings, of Mississippi ; Culbertson, of Texas; Hatch, of Missouri; Ottth waite, of Ohio ; Richardson, of Tenn essee ; bpnnger, cf Illinois, and Wil son, of West Virginia, while in the votes cast against it may be found the names of equally prominent demo crats, ror instance, Bryan, of Ne braska : the two Coopers, of Florida and Indiana, respectively ; Dockery, of Missouri : Heard, of Missouri ; Holman, of Indiana ; McCreary, of Kentucky; McMillin, of Tennessee: Sayers, of Texas, and Turner, of Georgia. The division of the repub licans was not quite as marked, as a big mr.jonty of them supported the bill. There is little doubt that the bill will be passed by the Senate, if it can be brought to a vote ; but it is far from certain that it can be. It will all depend upon how determined the op position is. Tluee democratic Senators Blanc- hard, of Louisiana ; Martin, of Kansas, and Roach, of North Dakota and all the populist Senators voted with the republicans to defeat Senator Gray's motion to take up the bill re ported from the Finance committee at the last session, as a substitute for the House free sugar bill, which was lost by a vote of 27 to 23. Among the democratic Senators who did not vote were Brice, Gorman, Irby, Mor gan, Murphy, Gibson, Turpie, and Smith. It is not thought that any further tariff legislation will be at tempted at this session. The President, Mrs. Cleveland and the children are now back at home in the White House. The President has entirely recovered from his long and troublesome attack of rheumatism and is now appirently in perfect health. He is reported to have said in reply to a question that the admin istration had done its duty in pointing out to Congress what it beliced ought to be done, and that it now re mained for Congress to do them or not do them, leaving the final judg ment to the people. The republicans are opposed to the bill making all ships free, but they are willing to suppoit a bill allowing a single foreign-built ship an American register as often as parlies having suffi cient " pull " ask for it. This week the Senate passed one of that nature. The democratic idea is to extend the privilege of receiving an American register to all vessel owners who de sire it, instead of by special legislation to a favored few. The opponents of the income tax were only able to muster 54 votes in the House when they attempted to defeat the preliminary appropriation, THE COLUMBIAN, to organize the machinery for the collection of the tax, which is in the emergency appropriation bill, It will pay you to take Hood's Sar saparilla.

Miss Elizabeth Greenwood, the earnest Bible reader, recently gave an impressive discourse to a large church audience in Harrisburg, taking for her subject an old theme "Character Building," but she dressed it up in such a manner as to make it fresh and new. Miss Greenwood said : We are all builders and in our buildings we need a plan. We should take Christ as our model. He is perfect and is proven so by even the assertions of his enemies. In the building of our char acter, we require physical and mental material. By activity in these branches of our structure we cultivate them and make them better for use in the making of a truly good character. We should lay our foundation in Christ." Miss Greenwood declared that a person has a chance to build a bad structure or a temple and in the build ing of the latter, the little things of home, the word, the act and the look do much. A time comes when our building, the character we have made, is tested and if we build with Christ as our model, it will pass through the fiery ordeal, unscathed. Miss Green- wood in closing referred to the beauty of this idea and to the interest she has taken in this movement since leavina her college. Throughout her talk the speaker quoted philosophers and poets in sud port of her views and aroused a great interest in her work. Legal Advertisements.
