A life briKlit with promlae has ended, and hopes tire unrealized bsOAUts of wasting disease and untimely death. Charlea K Wilkinson died lu Ivi gene, ut Ihe residt nee of his parents, Hunduy morning August U, at 10 o'clock, nif' d years. 7 month- mid f days. He was born at Mineral Point, Wisconsin, and with his paieuts came to EageM in 1883. Had the advan tages of our public schools, and Ihe Stale University for several years, lack ing only one year of becoming u grad uate. His anxiety (o commence the work which he had mapped out for his life, that of law, prompted bin to forego that honor, WsM elected a member of the lower house of the Oregon legislature from Lane county at the June, ISO.', election lacking a few days of having attained his majority when elected. In spite of his youth and youthful appearance he made a useful member, and won en comiums from his fellow memlicrs for bis efforts and votM towards ssearinf i;nod and practical legislation (or the ! -t Interests of Ihe slate. He held a position ill the Portland custom house under Collector Black from 1"!4 to 181(6. His delicate health induced him to seek a warmer climate, and he wetit to Arizona and secured a location for the i practice of his profession, the law. His health Improved iii the dry southern and mountain air, and he weighed heavier ttiun ever before. While in Arizona he married his wife whom he had tlrsl met In Portland. A cold which he contracted per manently settled ou his lungs and rapidly developed into consumption. Made a trip to New York city for treatment which failed to Improve his condition. Then went to Boulder and Denver, Colorado, but continued to steadily grow worse. He lost hope, and last May turned his face to the home of his youth and eurly manhood with no other expectation than that of meting an early death. His wife re mained at Denver. A father, mother one brother and two sisters, residents of Kugene, survive him. A younger brother died of coDsumptlou a few years ago. Charles Wilkinson's ambitions and abilities were such that had kindly nature endowed him with a physique in keeping with his mental attributes he would have attained prominence in the legal, perhaps political world. Hut physical limitations could Dot be set aside, and with expectations and ambi tions unfultlMed, with the possibilities ot life only fairly before him, be has paid the penalty ot human existence.

Protect Our Kood. I'he doctors Inform us that alum Is a poison, and that alum baking powders should be avoided because they make the food ii ii wholesome. Prominent byglenlstS, who have given the math r mod study, regard '.bene powders as an evil that should be Mpprssacd l v state action. In Minnesota ami Wis consin alum powders are not psi milted to be sold unless they ars braudcil to warn consumers ot (heir true character, while In tbe District of Columbia, the authorltlea have under the direction of Congress, adopted rag illations to prohibit the use ot alum in bread altogether. Are not the eople of other slates, us well as those of Minnesota mid Wis consin, entitled to warning of a din ger which is apparently menacing to m at close blind, aud Is not the whole . nun try entitled to absolute protection, us the people of the Dlstllcl of Columbia are protected, by legislation which Is entirely prohibillvt? Until we can have protection in the form of a statute, how can our stale hoards of health, date analysts or food commissions better serve the publlo (irin by publishing in the DSWipapsn from time to time the MUX) SI of the baking powders which they llud to be made from alum? Meantime, It will aid tin- housewife iu designating the alum powders to remember that all powders sold at twenty-five cents or less per pound are of this dangerous class. Pure cream of tartar powders hi - u-uitlly sold at from forty-live to fifty osntl per pound. REV? BC1EM0I HALL. LANE COUNTY BANK (Establish n ISSS., - or EUGENE, : OREGON.
