V 14 THE MOHXIN6 OREGONIAX. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1907. RUNS GAUNTLET: LOSES VITALITY Pure Food Legislation Not so Sweeping as Was Planned. IMPORTANT FEATURES CUT Short Weight Provision Stricken I'rom Burns' Bill ami Other Al terations Made Not Much Really Accomplished. Pure-food legislation, rnaoted by the Inte Oregon Legislature, is not as general In lta application a Representative D. C. Burns, of this city, had hoped to ac complish In his earnest crusade against adulterated-food stuffs and short-weight products. When the different measures for which Mr. Burns was sponsor, had run the gauntlet of legislative practice. had dodged the fatal treatment of "in definite postponement" or were returned from the committees, after being sub jected to disastrous amendment!. It de velops that about the only thing really accomplished In the interest of the con sumer was to make the state law on the subject of adulterated products conform more strictly to the National pure-food law. What is considered the most important feature of any of the bills on this sub ject, that Mr. Burns introduced in the state Legislature, was that which pro posed to terminate the short-weight methods so universally followed by wholesalers. This provision was stricken from the -bill after a hearing had been accorded Portland wholesalers, who con tender! that the enforcement of such a rondition would. In effect, put them out of btislness for the reason that it would restrict their business entirely to this state. Should they seek to dispose of their full-weight products, as would be required of them under the proposed law, in any of the adjoining . states, they argued, they would be seriously handi capped in any attempt to dispose of their goods for the reason they would come in direct competition with other wholesalers In states where the same laws were not in effect. They claimed that the only way such a law could be equitably en forced without discrimination would be to have such legislation uniformiy en acted in all of the states. ."The general provisions of the Notional re-food law," saldj State Food and Llry Commissioner Bailey yesterday. re practically the same as the state under which wc have been operating. rislatlon on this subject, passed at the Legislature, relates almost entirely (he proper labeling of packages. The t-ns bill covers the question of prop- labeling or branding packages and itainers as to their true contents. H ther contains the provision that where fkages are marked as to their weight. weight indicated must be the cor welght of the package. Another KJItlon Imposed on the retailer is that lorder to protect himself from prosecu te for selling adulterated products, he 1st produce a certificate from tne manufacturer attesting the purity of the jroods he is selling. It Is not compulsdry that manufacturers mark their goods as to true net weight, but when any pack age ts marked as to weight, the marking must oe the correct and actual weight of the package." TTndcr the National pure food law. the regulation regarding the principal label will not be enforced until October 1. 1907. In the ease of labels printed and now on hand. These labels may be used with out change until that date. The same law provides that whenever any state ment contained in the label is contrary to the food and drugs act, they shall he corrected by a supplementary label, stamp or paster. For these reasons, then, the operation of the Burns law will not entail any inconvenience . or additional" expense either to the wholesaler or to the retailer. The state pure food law. as it already existed, is simply made to tally more minutely with the National pure food lajv as to the labeling of pack ages. It was Impossible to secure the enactment by the Legislature of any measure that would correct the short weight abuse to which the consumer is so flagrantly subjected in this state. An idea of the worth of the dairy in dustry to the state may be had In re view of the biennial report of State Kood and Dairy Commissioner Bailey, just published. During: the year 1905, accord ing to the report, the value of the pro ducts of the dairy industry was JIO.633.000. but Mr. Bailey says the output for the year 1906 was fully 40 per cent greater than for the preceding year, making the total for last year approximately $15,000. 000. Mr. Bailey introduces his report with the following brief statement as to the status of the dairy Industry in Oregon: The prediction made a few years ago that Oregon would in time become known as a great dairy state, is proving true. "While the industry has had a steady, if not a rapid growth in the years gone by. the past biennial neriod, and especially the year just olosed. has seen a remarkable increase In the products of the dairy. Some of the dairies which have heretofore done a large business- report the. Increase of this year from 6i to 70 per cent over last, while NEW HARRIMAN LINE WILL OPEN VAST UNDEVELOPED REGIONS OF OREGON SURVEYS just completed by 'the Ore gon Eastern, the Southern Pacific extension across Central Oregon, outline a railroad which will penetrate a region long neglected and one which Is said to be the largest stretch of unde veloped country in the United States. The extreme distances and difficulty in reach the dairyman, the one who produces the milk, has also had a, profitable season, for the market has been firm and the prices paid have been higher by considerable than in any other dairy section. Mr. Bailey shows in his report that the average price of butter In Portland during the year 1905 was 28.7 cents as compared to 24.1 cents at Elgin, 111., while for the same year the patrons In Tilla mook County received 26.8 cents for their butter-fat alone. Better and more prof itable cows, says Mr. Bailey, are the greatest need. To the lack of knowl edge of a profitable cow, he attributes the principal reason that so many fail to make a success of the dairy business. The report includes some suggestions to dairymen, emphasizing the need of prop erly caring for their stock, cleanliness above all things being essential. During the period covered by the re port, Mr. Bailey inspected 350 creameries and 77 cheese-factories. He also prose cuted 73 cases for violation of the pure food law, the offenders in a majority of instances pleading guilty and paying fines of from J 25 to 100. The dairy product of the state for the year 1905, as given in the report, fol lows: Creamerv butter, 7.O00.000 lbs., at JS cents Jl.fiBO.ono Balrv butter. 3.000 OOO lbs., at 20c 600.0O0 Kactory cheese, 4,000.000 lbs., at 12c 480,000 Condensed milk, 300,000 cases, at j:i.m.- 1,093,000 Ice cream and cream used for other than butter and cheese 500,000 Milk for domestic use other than used on the farm 6.000.OO0 Total $10,635,000 GIRLS SHOULD BE WARNED NEWS OF THAW CASE SHOULD XOT BE SUPPKESSED. Mrs. Dutilway Declares Mother of Evelyn Thaw Is Moral Monster. Standard of Sexes. Mrs. Abigail Scott Duniway says that she thinks that the mother of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw is a moral monster, but that the environments which brought her into this condition are not yet known. She de clares she does not think It is well for small children to read the shocking de tails of the trial as published In the daily press, but she stands with Rev. J. Whit comb Brougher when he says that the young should be warned of the pitfalls and hellholes which await their inexper ienced feet. "t'ntil I had read these exposures which are being made in the New York court under the close cross-examination of Evelyn Thaw by Jerome. I had no knowl edge of the corruption that exists among the smart set." she said. "A ministerial brother was scoring Dr. Brougher the other day for having taken the part of the press in his sermon last Sunday. He said that salacious stories increase the evil through suggestion. 1 contended with him that when a moral ulcer has grown to such proportions secretly, and the time has come for it to burst. If it does not do so it should be lanced. This Thaw trial shows up the concealed mine, as it were, over which the feet of the young are constantly compelled to pass. If told of Its existence there is some chance that it may be destroyed or that young Teet will avoid it. but if its existence is not pointed out it is impossible to escape it except by accident. "I think myself, that it is not well to place such reading matetr before chil dren, but I do not know that it can be helped. I think the greatest sin of the world is the sin of ignorance. To warn children of the evil consequences of sin. of the dangers of sin, and to place them upon their honor, is the best way to en able them to escape the evil, i reared my family upon human honor rather than human law. Instead of keeping their daughters inclosed in the arms of ignor ance mothers should give them the knowl edgs which is their right. If I were rear ing another family I should do as I have done with the one I had. I should teach them that anything that Is evil in woman is evil also in man. that there is no sex in crime, honor, justice, liberty or re sponsibility. "I think that the mother of this girl is a moral monster, but I do not know what has perverted her. Women have been taught for centuries and for ages to be lieve that their sex was their chiefest charm, their only dependence and their only right. The fact is that the higher law gets above the consideration of mere sex and places us upon a plane of honor. The wonder is to me that moral condi tions are not ten thousand times worse than they are when we think of women fallen into poverty, who tliemselves have no honor. The very fact that in spite of these onesided conditions women are as good as they are is evidence that there is a saving power in motherhood." Kailroad Commissioner West Here. Oswald West, one of the newly appoint ed Railroad Comlssioners, was in Port land yesterday conferring; with United States Attorney William C. Bristol. The commission is already organized and has been holding meetings daily at the State Capital for some time, the arrangement being: to take up the ques tion of railway transportatio.n in a sys tematic manner. The commission has not yet appointed a permanent clerk, but will take plenty of time to make a selection. Candidates for the posi tion are said to be numerous. Favors Philippine Bank BUI. WASHINGTON.

KIVEK IS CLEARED OF SXAGS Engineers" Boat Mathlomu Will Tie rp-Saturday Night. David B. Ogden. Assistant United States Engineer, returned yesterday from a tour of inspection of the Upper Willamette River. Mr. Ogden went as far as Eu gene. At Albany he met the snagboat Mathlcyna and came as far down the river as Salem. Several years ago the Government built a revetment at Independence and it was feared that the recent freshet had dam agd this to a considerable extent. It was found on inspection, however, that the work had stood the flood in remark able shape and was practically Intact. The Mathloma will arrive in Portland Saturday and will tie up at the Govern ment moorings. She has practically cleared the river of snags. f Her work in this connection was greatly aided by the flood. Menaces to navigation, which formerly blocked the channel in places, are now out in the woods. AIDS TO NAVIGATION KEP LACED Channel Markings Put Between Portland and Astoria. Aids to navigation have been replaced on the Columbia River between Portland and Astoria. The lighthouse-tender Heather has been employed in the work for more than a week and nearly all buoys and lights which were affected by the recent ice blockade have been re-established. For the aid of navigators the following list has been prepared by Com mander P. J. Werlich, Inspector of the Thirteenth District: Tongue Point crossing gas buoy, 1, page ! and prowling aoyote will give way to civ ilization.

LECTURE ON ILLUMINATION EASTERN EXPERT WILL GIVE TALK OX USE OF LIGHT. Albert J. Marshall Brought to Port land by Railway, Light & Power Company. The Portland Railway Light & Power Company, in keeping with tt system of educating the public In the proper use of electricity as applied to wall appliances has secured Albert J. Marshall, one of the best-known illuminating engineers in the country, to deliver a free public lecture tonight on the subject of "The Proper Use of Artificial Light," at Knights of Pythias Hall. 4071fc Alder street, corner of Eleventh street. This lecture will be thoroughly illus trated by stcreopticon views and Mr. Mar shall will present this subject, which should be of vital interest to all users of artificial light, in a manner which will be understood by all who will take advantage of the opportunity of listening to him. It is a well-known fact among engineers that approximately 40 per cent of all artificial light used in this country Is wasted be cause it is not utilized properly. Mr. Marshall will endeavor to show how a great deal of this waste can be put into practical and artistic use, thereby effect ing a great saving to the public In general. Mr. Marshall is engaged by the Portland Railway. Light & Power Company to in struct and entertain its lighting custom ers. He Is giving a series of lectures over the entire country and states that he has found the idea very beneficial for a great movement, as the traveling public gener ally, at least at night, size up a city by the character of its lighting.
