The morning pap that The Star was making & good fight, and that it could no longer overlook the dastardly work of the formaldehyde fiend, a week ago, Since then the good old con in its fight. Foltowing close in the wake of the “P..1." came the dairymen them- selvee—the men whose wa have been peddied promiscuowsly through the city, and nome of whose milk has been found to contain formaldehyde, They got in out of the wet by making the grand-atand play of offering the city to help establish » city laboratory, which wa suggested by The Star as the only remedy for the frightful murder of babies, and which has been advocated by mearty every prominent physi- lan in town, Of Am fact, their littic game shows about as much intelligence as an inmate uese the motive of the milk men le plein as day, of Steilacoom might display under a similar provocation.

The council probabiy will pay no attention to their “magnanimous offer, and poke the colored gentleman out of the wood pile Right tight wp behind the dairymen in their desire to purify the milk of Seattle, comes the other lecal afternoon paper. Of course, it is ereditable for this local afternoon paper to see that The Star has been printing the news, although it is sesrcely so oredit able that it should take 4 fortnight te do it But this belated brother on Second avenue prints a pretty good editorial on milk inspection, which The Star believes is worth reprinting. and therefore The Star does it with « few parenthetical phrases in serted here and there for the enlightenment of the readers of the other afternoon paper, whe certainly would mvt knew there was any impure milk im Seattle, or that nearly 40 babies had been murdered by the milk polsoner in seven weeks, by reading that publication. The editorial follows: There seems to be & good deal of noise made (exclusively in The Star) adout suppressing the use of formaldehyde a* 4 preservative ef tmitk, and Coroner Moye has very pointedly tmtimated (exclusively in The Star) that the city milk inspection bureau ts not sufficiently alert tm protecting the patrons of dairies and milk dealers The «consensus of opinion (exelusively in The Star) is that for- tmaldehyde t= 2 too dangerous drug to be u peas of milk. and that (ts use te the cause of the great mortality among chikiren this summer (ae shown exclusively in The Star). if this te ie effect, ite use in milk should be prohibit and any mitk dealer who doce not comply with the regulations, should be severely od to preserve the aweet- re ee ee a eee a I RE OO RO ER OTE: OE LC FN Beveral months agu articles appeared tn a portion of the Bastern press which would leave the tmpree:ton that formaldehyde in mot always & @angerous preservative, so there te the possibility Unetimany miik Gtalers have resorted to its use without knowing Ta deadly character bet the focal agitation (exelusively th The Star) has now been going om for a sufficient tenet of time for every one to be property in- fmrmed (exclugivély by The Stor), ond any milkman now cought with ~the “Moctert4” fitk in his possession, should be given « coat of tar and feathers, uniess a more suitable punishment can be Inftkted in less ram 1 formatdehyde ts used to the extent that i# now claimed, and tr 1 GeaMy character te as sure as te stated by expert testimony (enelu: ivety published in The Star), how does it come that the milk Inspection department of the city government did not make the discovery tong ago?
