A bill for an act entitled "An
Act to Rsgulate the Trallic in Bak-
ing powder" has been introJuced
in the legisislature at Springfield
by Mr. Nohe. 'J he bill is intended
to prevent the adulteration of bak-
ing powders with amonia or 3lum
imposing propsr penalties to enforce
the law etc. This shows an earnest
desire on tho part of our represen-
tatives to protect their constituents.
Tho Chicago Tribune referring
to the question of legislation on
Alum and Amonia baking powder
say: "It deals in a direct man-
ner with aa evil that must be
cut down.
"Following is a partial list of the
names of the brands sold in this
state that have been examined and
found to contain either Ammonia
or Alum. Minyof the Alum and
Ammonia Powders are labeled and
advertised aa "absolutely pure" to
mislead the public:
"Calumet" "Forest City" -'Chi-cago
Yeast;" "Grant's Bon Bon"
"Hotel" "Taylors' Oae hpoon"
"Taylors' Double Strength" "Cli-
max" "Bon Ton" "Town Talk"
"Manhattan" "Evans" "Dod-
Bon & Hil'""Shepard's" "Bain's"
"Kenton" "K. C" "Loyal"
"Double Eagle "
In addition to the above list there
is a multitude of brands sold with
a prize It is safe to rrjeot all
baking powderh sold with a prize
as tho lets show they are composed
largely of alum and cost but a few
conts per pound. Also refuse any
baking powder sold at twenty-five
cents a pound or less; as it is sure
to conlain alum.
Surely nothing bat their cheap
ness oould induce the public to ex-
periment with these impure powders
at the risk of health. Aside from
the question of health or the whole-
someness of these condemned pow-
ders and viewed from tho stand-
point of economy alone a pure
grape cream of tartar baking pow-
der like "Dr. Price's" from its
greater known strength and unques-
tionable purity will prove more
economical to the user in everyway.

Views of Mexican Bankers
By Aisoclnteil TreeB to The Nowe.
Cm oi Mkmto Juno .'8 A
tremendous drop in the price of sil
ver bringing exchange on Now
i orK to 0 por cent. has oroated
much discussion among Mexican
bankers. They general regard
the present situation as ollering a
great opportunity for thn United
S.ates to forco bimetallism upon
Enrope.
It is suggested by ono man that
the United States might issue a
gold loan of .-)00.000000 four and
a half per pent bonds which it is
sa'd would be immediately taken
up in lui rope where all other gov-
ernment securities would immedi-
ately drop heavily not baing ab'o
to compete with tho American
bonds.
Then according to the tboor.
gold would How into the United
S'.aUis and in a short gpiee of time
bimetallism would lme to bo adopt-
ed by Eujope and the enormous
quantity of silver held by the Amor-u-in
treasury would rise in viluo
and the transaction would bo im-
mensely profitable to tho United
States.
The United St3tes it is urged
could afford to undertake the gi-
gantic financial operation without
baing able to feel it and has now a
wonderful opportunity to settle tho
silver question permanently.
It is said hora that if nothing is
done to bring about bimetalism all
silver using countries will begin
manufacturing for themselves and
the United States will lose enor-
mously in their foreign trade.

Tne depressing effect tf the present
condition of tho cotton trade is
making itHalf felt in Frankfort and
Kensington. The managers of tho
various mills are trying to avert tho
suspension of their enure plants by
laying off tho employes of one room
at a time hoping 'that the trade
will take a boom. But two large
plants in Frankfort have finally de-
cided to shut down for a month at
least and others in Kensington it
is rumored will soon follow their
example. The mills first to suc-
cumb are the Calcutta mill and the
Berkshire mills both operated by
the Berkshire Mill Company and
employing about 000 hauds.

Kknt 111. June -'8 SiUy-one
years have olapsul since the piairii's
of Illinois resounded with tho w sir
whoop of tho red men but the name
and fame of Black Hawk sail I ves
and today old settltrH ihosu mem-
ories aro still clear on those trying
times and mrvivors of thr Black
lliwk war are fratornv.ing in the
little city which boaHts of the only
Bla 'k ll'iwk war monument in thu
world. Tody is thn (list annivorra
ry of the battle of K'-llog's Grove
where Col Dutnoni and his. men
fought a decisive engagement that
brought deleat and disaster to Black
Hawk and his horde of led-skinned
followers and it is being ubsjrved
by a general reunion ol tho settlers
and veterans. Tho exercises ba
gaj this morning with a proceH-uon
formed upon the ma'n staoot of

band proceeded to the old battln
ground of Kcllog's Groe the rem-

an on! faOnoned picnic wasnnu
gurattd until 1 o'clock when tho
gathering wan called to order and
prayr ollored by It'iv. B. II.

survivors about a doz-m in
number wore seated upon the plat-
form. After the patriotic music by
the band an address of welcome
was delivered by J B. Tiiniu" of
Kent to which response was made
by Grit. Smith G. A'kins of Free-
port. Short addresses wre then
made by Cont.reFsman It. K. Hitt
Col. Peter Parkinson of Fayette
Wis Col John Thomas II. S.
Townsond and several others. At
tho conclusion of the addresses the
survivors assisted by members of
the Grand Anny of the Republic
decorated the graves of thoso who
fell more than half a century ago in
the struggle with tho red men. It
was 3 notable and touching scene
and one that was attended with a
sort of melancholy interest from the
fac'. that very few of tho survivors
of tho Black Hawk war that partic-
ipated today aro likely to be on

rolls 'round.
