The Congress Adjourns to Re- pew Its Work at the End of a Yecar. There Is a General Belief That Much Gool Has Be:n Done by the Conventicn. Yesterday coneluded the deliberations of the Pure Food Congress, and there was a general impression that it resulted in much good. Governor Budd sent asec- ond letter regretting that he could not be present and stating that he fully indorsed the principles of the congress. 3 Mrs. Woolner addressed the congress in favor of pure baking powder, after which President David Starr Jordan delivered the addressof the day. Hesaid that he that he might show the deep interest he felt in the move- ment; not that he knew anything about d, not having seen any to his knowledge since he left the farm twenty- five years ago. He thought the law with reference to the manuiacture and sale of impure food did not go far enough. It shouid not only bs made very unprofit- able,but extremely disagreeable.

Some people say that legisiation should orce virtue, but this would be based on each man’s interests or tastes. Tiey had a man in Kansas who wanted to enforce the Ten Commandments by means of legislation. Therears two ways of enforcing laws—by legisia:ion and by force. Legislation with refer- ence to pure food should be on sound lines. A great many people are opposed 0 being legislated, and most legisiation is essentially bad, but the way todo is to try 10 make legisiation better. There are three maxims governing the case. Aris- totle say *It is the duty of the State to reach every worthy end.” Private indi- viiuals cannot analyze baking powderand other adulterated foud, but tue State can.

Jaffa of the State Uni- versity discussed “Butter and Cheese.” He strongly indorsed the new cheese law as being calculated to encourage the dairy industry. The pre<ent annual product of Calitornia cheese is 9,U00,00¢ pounds. His paper was technical and descriptive. Aduliterations of butter and cheese were severely censured. The iaw, which will go into effect next Monday, would, he thought, protect tie producer of Califor- nia cream cheese and insure that the con- sumer would get a pure article. Professor .Hilgard of the State Univer- sity spoke on the *Use of Antiseptics for tie Preservation of Food Products.” The real question was what could or could not be eaten with impunity. The effects of bad food would be feit in after life, even if they were not recognized earlier. Pro- | fessor Hilgard ridiculed the suiphurinz of fruits, which destroved the flavor as well as the color. Hedid not blame the fruit-growers, but the public demand for fruit that had been whitened. He had eached so long in this State on the sub- ject that he had grown _tired, and he be- lieved that vefore to-day he had never been applauded for his views concerning sulpburing. Unless the law could regu- late the use of antiseptics their use should be discontinued. The committee on State and local or- ganization Submitted the following report: That a permauent organization be formed, of which the Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Association of California shall be the central body, which central organi- zation shall invite active support through the co-operation and association of Boards of Trade, Boards of Health, farmers’ clubs | and kindred organizations throughout the | State. That the purpose of this organiza- tion shall be the prosecution of this move- ment, now so auspiciously begun, for the suppression ot the manufacture and sale of adulterated food products in this State and for the enlorcement of the present laws of this State relating to the suppres- sion of this evil and the brinzing about of such legislation as will accomplish these purposes. L'nis report was adopted. The commitiee on resolutions reported on several that Lad been submitted by varios delegates. Some of these, it was recommended, should be referred to a committee on legislation. A resolution indorsing the work of the San Francisco Board of Health was re- ported. Other measures were referred to the permanent organization, A resolution was read by Julian Sonn- tag thanking the San Fraucisco Board of Health for its action in enforcing the pure-food law, and promising to support the board. This was adopted. The action of Dr. Morse of the Board of Health o San Francisco was approved, and also his suggestions concerning the prosecntion of offenders arainst the pure- food law, as contained 1n a resolution drawn by him. Thanks were oxtended to Senator With- NEW TO-DAY. SAFE SARSAPARILLA. You get it when you ask for Ayer’s.

Chief Food Inspector Dockery read a re- port on the work of the bureau of which he is the head. He contended that one of the most perfect milk-inspection systems in the world had been created in San Francisco. Beneficial results of the milk crusade were shown by the fact that the death rate amone children under 1 year of age in San Francisco haa been de- creased 50 percent. The purnose of the Board of Health was not to hamver hoe producers, but to protect them. The board had ordered that Eastern brands of goods should be first examined, and this was done, examinations being made particu- larly of Eastern milks and catsups. The congress adjourned, to assemble in May, 1898. While the congress was in session mem- bers of health boards from the interior counties met with members of the ban Francisco Board of Heaith and decided to ask the State Board of Heaith to cail a convention of all the county health boards in August. Dr. Rugeles, chairman of the State Board, agreed to call the pro- posed meeting. The following were ap- pointed a committee to confer with the State Board: Dr. J. M.

Prominent as a Member of Fra- ternities and a Demacratic Politician. His Funeral Will Be Conducfed by the Grand Lodge of Masons on Thursday. The spirit of Clay Webster Taylor took {ts flight at 6 o’clock yesterday morning. Few men in California were known among the Masonic fraternity, as also the United Order of Workmen aud in the councils of the Democratic party than was C. W. Taylor of Shasta. The deceased gentleman arrived in Cali- better | fornia from his native State, Michigan, at the a e of 13 years, and soon afier gaining his majority became a conspicuous young man in_the northern part of the State, where he settlea. He was a lawyer of marked ability"and was District Attorney of Shasta County for a number of years. He s:rved the State as a Senator from Shasta and Siskiyou counties in 1882 and served through the twenty-fifth and twenty-sixth sessions of the State Legisla- ture. His marked ability as a lawyer and orator brought him to the notice of the leading Democrats of tbe State, and in 1882 the convention which was held at San Jose put him forward as a. candidate 1or ncmination. In this fight for standard- bearer he came within one vote of ‘secur- ing the prizs that fell to Governor Stone- man. The treachery of his party on this acca- sion disgusted him to such an extent tha he declined to ever arain allow his name to go before a convention for a State office. A portion of this resolve he, however, re- linquished by accepting a place on the gold Democratic ticket last year as a pres- idential elector. His career as a Mason was more suc- cessiul thau that of a_politician, as he was elected master of Western Star No. and in 1879 the Grand Lodge honored iim by electing him its senior warden off the floor, an honor seldom bestowed on an elactive officer of that distinguished body. In the succeeding year, 1880, he was elect- ed deputy grand master, and- in 1881 was honored by being elected: grand worship- ful master of the Grana Lodge of Califor- nia. He wasup to the time of his death a prominent member of the Knigbts Templar. In the United Order of Workmen he was equally recogniz>d by being elected the grand master workman of that order, The home of the deceased was at 3364 Twenty-first atreet iu this City, where he died, and from which his mother was buried about three years ago, and also an aunt last year. Heart failure, which caused his death, had given bim consider- able trouble during the rast twelve months, so much so_that he chose to re- main in this City with his wife and two daughters rather than return to the place where his business was located. He was aged 52 year's at the time of his death. His funeral will ne bheld from the Masonic Temple on Post street on next Thursday at 1:30 o'clock under the auspices of the Grand Lodge of Masons, which has been spacially convened for that purpose.
