COMMENDS EVENING SPAR'S COURSE Opinion Expressed That Massachu- setts Law Should Prevail. OLEO AND FILLED CHEESE D. Hoard of Wisconsin ts stopping at the Hotel Raleigh. He is a well-known agriculturist, is president of the tional Dairy Union and editor and pub- lisher of Hoard’s Dairyman, a publication devoted to the interests of Ure manufac- turers of butter and cheese throughout the United States. “I am greatly pleased with the stand The Star has taken on the oleomargarine ques- tion,” he stated, in conversation with a Star reporter, “‘and read with great interest and entire satisfaction the interview with Secretary Wilson of the Depariment of Agriculture, under the date of Wednesday. We are all up in arms against the illega! sale of o.eomargarine, and are glad to see an influential paper take a hand in the fight. “The National Dairy Union, of which 1 2m president, was organized in 18%, and has members ail over the country. The union is composed of dairymen in general, boards of trade and produce exchanges. It was organized to create legislation, both state and national. It was the inspiring force in the promotion of laws behind the enactment of the ‘filled cheese’ provision passed a year ago. The butter fat is ex- tracted in the manufacture of the ‘filed cheese’ and the skim milk filled with oleo. Anti-Coler Laws. “Last winter the union was instrumental in naving important laws passed against olecmargarine in Hlinois and Michigan. ‘They are known as the anti-color laws and are similar to the ones which originated in Massachusetts. These acts forbid the mak- ing and selling of ary substitute for but- ter in the yeliow color of butter. The Mas- i ' sachusetts. law went through the Supreme Court and was upheld. “1 know of Wilkins & Co. merely from hearing of their alleged violations ot the v!eo iaws in the Distnet. In my opin- ion, the government should not aécept a cumpromise. A penny’s worth of convic- tion is worth a thousand dollars’ worth of law is the same practi- Ex-Gov. W. cally as the ssachusetts law, and also absolutely its the sale of ‘filied cheese.’ It contains provisions against ali counterfeit forms of butter and cheese and forbids the sale of oleomargerine in the yellow color of butter. Two states, New ‘ampshire and Minnesota, require margarine to be colored pink. Exceed- strong and hostile legislation against margerine has been had in twenty- three states, and the cause is still moving cn. “It is a well-attested scientific fact that butter melts fn the human stomach at a temperature six degrees below the normal heat of the body, easily passes into pancre- atic emulsion and digests. The melting point of o'eo is from 102 to 108 degrees. As a consequence it has to be cxpelled sm a foreign body, with severe gastric ac- tion. Oil From Dead Horses. “Some time ago a well-known magazine contained an able article on the horses of America. In this it was shown what was the value of a dead horse in New York city. The writer stated clearly and un- equivocally that the oil rendered from dead horses is sold to oleomargarine fac- tories. “There is no protection whatever to the consumer in the use of oleomargarine short of the greed for gain in the manufacturer d dealer :n the article. With butter it 1s rely different. It advertises its own quality at once, and no one can be deceived thereby. “The sworn testimony of Armour & Co., before the United States district court of Utica, N. Y., showed that it cost, States tax and ail, po United less than 7 cents a nd to manufacture the oleomargarine. The convictions in my state, under the State law, were a good illustration of the state traific. When our state law was passed forbidding the sale of oleo in the yellow form of butter, the United States retail licenses to dealers dwindled from one hundred and th:rty- three to nine, showing that the dealers could make but little headway in selling when it did not counterfeit butter in color. There were but few convictions after the law was passed. Commends Massachusetts Law. “I should like to see the Massachusetts law prohibiting the sale ef oleomargarine in the yellow color of butter become gen- erai in every state in the Union. There cannot be a national law in the matte=, as the government is not expected to do police business, but merely to enforce the revenue laws. When dealers cannot dis- pose of oteomargarime for butter they can- uot sell it at all. When it is in any other 1orm it convicts itself. “Some persons qupdle at the distinction Letween coloring butwer and coloring oleo- margarine. Butter is not eolored to repre- sent Something thai is rot butter, whereas vivomargarine is colored to deceive the con- sumer into believirg ke is eating butter when it is not. two proposition: her number of Hence, the difference in the Butter is the same in plored or not.” . Hoard strongly of the opinion | tnat no compromise should be made with oleomargarine offenders, as he thinks noth- ng but convictions where violations have ‘urred and the passage and enforcement of stringent laws cn the subject will put a stop to the nefaricus traffic. ————— UNITARIAN CHURCH CONFERENCE. ‘Thirteenth Annual Meeting Opened in New York City. The thirteenth annual meeting of the Unitarian conference of the middle states and Canada was opened in All Souls’ Church, New York, yesterday. ‘The report of Secretary Moorehouse show. ed that while during the decade from 1877 to 1887 the Unitarian churches had de- creased five in number, during the decade from 1887 to 1807 there had been a net in- crease of thirteen, ten of which are self- supperting. The accessions are principally in New York and New Jersey. The secre- tary said that the former apathy of Uni- larvans in the middie states had earned for tnat section the Ute of the “Unitaran Bad wands,” but that the enterprise recently shown has sufficed to remove the ttle. in the last ten years $267,000 has been spent in the m.ddie states and Canaua for the erec- tion of church edifices for the denomina- tion. Rev. E. Bradford Leavitt of All Souls’ Church, Washington, read a paper on “A Unitarian Church—The Means and Metheds by Which Its Work Can Be Prosecuted Successfully.” The oincers were all reeiected as fol- lows: President, Dorman Bb. Eaton; vice presidents, Rev. Dr. Robert Collyer, Mrs. John P. Innsley of eine Henry B. Wells of Plainfield, N. Rev. Dr. Thomas R. Slicer, Rev. Joseph it y of Philadelphia, end de moe hae Ww oor of Brooklyn; sec- retary, Rev. loorehouse, and vrer, Howland Davis. a ——— RUSSIA'S NAVAL PREPARATIONS.
